trouble with passing variables

[rickdeet]

I have a form with a drop down menu that is built from an array.

I want to pass that info to the next script, but it doesn't seem to do it automatically as I thought it would.

Any suggestions?

The looping script is as follows:

sort($CustomerArray);
echo "<select name=$AgencyName>";
foreach($CustomerArray as $opt){
echo "<option value=$opt>$opt"; }
echo "</select>";

Thanks,

Rick

Are you passing the value of $AgencyName to the next page as well? If you aren't, the page has no way of telling what it is and therefore has no way of addressing the variable.

Looking at it and the way you have the name set up dynamically, you may have to use a variable variable, but not sure (I stay away from them myself, a bit confusing...strike that, alot confusing).

Might be a bit less confusing to set the select name to something static, and pass the AgencyName as a hidden value. Then do the comparison on the next page.
