cannot pass info to URL

Hie,

What's wrong with this code?
$template->setVariable("ACTION", "posting.php?group_id=$id");

I seem to get this:
http://localhost/wdaassign/forum/posting.php?title=ss&textMessage=ss&submit=Preview

instead of just :
http://localhost/wdaassign/forum/posting.php?group_id=1?

The $id = 1
Thanks

The 1st one means that your form is using method "get" instead of "post"

You need to use & to separate values after the first one.

Hie,

Erm, you see, I wanted to add this info into the url which is group_id. That's why I try to pass to the page by using <form action = posting.php?group_id=1> but it didnt work. Instead, it extract all the other values from the form to become like this:

./posting.php?text=whatever&message=whatever

I amjust wondering why it doesnt pass the group_id over?Thanks

I was wondering if it's because I put this code after the action?
$template->setVariable("TITLE", isset($title) ? $title : "");
$template->setVariable("MESSAGE", isset($message) ? $message : "");

I am just setting the TITLE and MESSAGE in template the value just so that it will not become blank again when preview is clicked
