Problem passing variable

[afrancis]

I cannot seem to be able to pass a variable to another page with a form. I have a small form with a drop down list on one page . The form is only the drop down list and a submit button as shown. I have used the same code (with a different variable) on another page although in a form with several fields and was able to pass the variable . Can anyone help please?

<FORM NAME="bloggroupform" ACTION="html/view_blog.php" method="POST">
<TABLE ID="Table8" BORDER="0" CELLSPACING="2" CELLPADDING="2" WIDTH="100%" STYLE="height: 38;">
<TR STYLE="height:30px">
<TD WIDTH="97"><P>

<?php
	$query = "select blogpage from bloggroup order by blogpage";
	$result = mysql_query($query)or die(mysql_error());

echo "<SELECT ID='Category Combo Box' NAME='blogpage'>";
echo "<OPTION VALUE=' ' SELECTED>Select Blog Page</OPTION>";

While ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{
	echo "<OPTION VALUE='";
	echo stripslashes($row["blogpage"]);
	echo "'> ";
	echo stripslashes($row["blogpage"]);
	echo "</OPTION>";
}
	echo "</SELECT>";
	mysql_free_result($result);
?>

</P>
         </TD>
         <TD VALIGN="TOP" WIDTH="136">
         <P><INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT" NAME="FormsButton1" VALUE="View Blog" ID="FormsButton3"></P>
          </TD>
          </TR>
        </TABLE>
        </FORM>

So on html/view_blog.php this doesn't print anything:

echo $_POST['blogpage'];

What if you try this instead:

echo '<OPTION VALUE="';
echo stripslashes($row['blogpage']);
echo '"> ';
echo stripslashes($row['blogpage']);
echo '</OPTION>';

I just switched your double quotes for your single ones to make sure they translate to your html.
