Variable problem?

[Anon]

Once again, its me. I cant seem to get what I want from one form to another. I post it to the page that i want it to go to, and i can see some info that was posted, but, grrr nevermind, ill just show you the code.

---------form.php--------------
//first form to fill out
....some code
<input type="checkbox" name="Monday_7am" value="Avaliable"> //regular html form

---------form2.php--------------
//second form. First form's variables are carried over. The first few lines of code has hidden fields.
...some html
<input type="hidden" name="Monday_7am" value="<?php echo"$Monday_7am" ?>">

Now shouldnt the code in form2.php (the value) show 'Avaliable' ??

Try this:
$q = $HTTP_POST_VARS["Monday_7am"];

<input type='hidden' name='Monday_7am' value='<?php echo"$q"; ?>'>

nope, it still just gives me the value as Monday_7am and I want the value to be Avaliable.

Hi

Try it like this ->

<input type="hidden" name="Monday_7am" value="<?php echo".$Monday_7am." ?>">

Are you checking the checkbox? Unchecked checkboxes are not sent to the form proccessing script as variables.

[Anon]

yes it was checked.

Hi Ray,

The form does work right on my system. You can test the following just to see if your problem is the programming or the config:

test.php

<form method=post action="test2.php">
<input type="checkbox" name="Monday_7am" value="Avaliable"><input type="submit" value="Envoyer" name="Envoyer">
</form>

test2.php

<?php echo $Monday_7am; ?>
<form method=post action="test3.php">
<input type="hidden" name="Monday_7am" value="<?php echo"$Monday_7am" ?>">
<input type="submit" value="Envoyer" name="Envoyer">
</form>

test3.php

<?php echo $Monday_7am;?>
