First, do you have a function defined in your script called "print_array"? "array_walk()" is trying to apply every element of the POST_VARS array to a specific user-defined function... Depending on how complicated the form you are trying to process is, here's what I recommend... For a simple (no more than 20 form elements) I suggest setting "register_globals = on" in you php.ini, and then you AUTOMATICALLY have access to the simple variables named to match your form elements... like this from html: <input type="text" name="txtTextBox"> then in php script (processing that form), the above data would be available as $txtTextBox. Of course, with "track_vars = on" in your php.ini, you can also easily get at the form variable like this: $HTTP_POST_VARS['txtTextBox'] So, for not-so-complex forms, I recommend using either of the above techniques and staying away from the intricacies of something like "array_walk()". -- Andy Hoffman Web Developer Bristol-Myers Squibb email: andy.hoffman@bms.com
