From one of the form pages on my site, I took the form values ($_POST) on the receiving action page and passed them thru to yet another page by using hidden inputs. There, on the third page, I was unable to break down the array so I could manipulate the values individually and I was hoping that someone could help me see the light! Here's the code:
//In "do_updatelog.php", after checking for required fields from the the
//previous form page, I initialized new variables:
<?php
$name = $POST[name];
$worklocation_description = $POST[worklocation_description];
$work_type = $POST[work_type];
$jobstatus_id = $POST[jobstatus_id];
$log_entry = $POST[log_entry];
$cost = $POST[cost];
$hour_in = $POST[hour_in];
$minute_in = $POST[minute_in];
$hour_out = $POST[hour_out];
$minute_out = $POST[minute_out];
//inserted them into the following hidden input, and sent them on to the next page
echo <<<ARCHECK
<FORM method="POST" action="ar_shosuccess.php">

I get the following warning on my webpage

At this point, I'm just really frustrated and hope someone can assist. Carl
