Problems to send variables to php-script

[agerhard]

I finished my PHP-installation successfully. But now I have problems to send data with the method="POST" command.

In the phpinfo()-file the correct data is available. It shows me:

PHP Variables
Variable Value
POST["Nachname"] dfhdf <----+++++++++++
POST["email"] dfhdf <----+++++++++++
COOKIE["Cookietest"] Das ist ein Test

SERVER["COMSPEC"] C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe

...

But now I start the new Window site2.php with:

<?php
echo "Nachname = $Nachname";

and everytime it shows me:

Nachname =
Notice: Undefined variable: Nachname in c:\php4-scripte\password.php on line 11

I'm totally desperated! Do anybody knows somethink about this problem???

this is becuase your calling the variable wrong

something like this should work

echo $_POST["Nachname"];
