posting variables

[daleks]

i have setup a html page for recording information about a poll, information such as date and name are stored as well as the number of topics to be voted on.
This uses "post" function to send variables to a .php file , the php file reads the amount of topics are presents user with a number of txt file this is then posted to a 2nd php file when i try to enter the variables from the html page for date and name into the database i cant only the topics are posted to the 2nd php page.

It would be easier to debug your problems if you included a code example.

Thanks,

On your first php page, try setting the variables into hidden form fields. This way they will be posted to the second php page also.
