Natty_Dreadlock

use this form:

<FORM name="form1" method="GET" action="check.php"> 
<input type="text" name="username" size="27" maxlength="32"></td> 
<input type="reset" value="clear" name="B1"> 
<input type="submit" value="submit"></td> 
</form>

and u'll get this result:
check.php?username=testing
Every element of the form is appended to the action usin the ? or & as a key=value pair when u submit it via GET. When usin POST, the data is not transmitted as a part of the URL but via HTTP-Header.

Do it like this:

if($_GET["do"] == "")
?>
<FORM name="form1" method="GET" action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF;?>">  

<input type="text" name="username" size="27" maxlength="32"></td>  

<input type="reset" value="clear" name="B1">  

<input type="submit" name="do" value="submit"></td>  

</form>
<?php
else if($_GET["do"] == "submit")
{
// process form input
}
else
{
echo "invalid action";
}
?>
