You can treat key_confirm as a regular variable. You can write $key_confirm where ever you want to use this parameter.

Rekha is still right!

When you call your script like this :

http:\www.xxxx.com\confirm_acount.php?id_confirm=a1b1c2d4

.. you will automatically have access to the variables from the querystring. That means that if you do this in your script :

<?php
echo "Random : " . $id_confirm;
?>

.. you will see :

Random : a1b1c2d4

Easy isn't it?

If you need further help, please do not hesitate to write me an email. =8-)
