I guess so, here's what worked:
everybody was telling me this, but I failed to notice that what everyone said was to use $_POST['applicant'] but I was using $_POST['$applicant'] I wasn't paying attention to the "$" <HTML> <!-- jobapp_action.php--> <BODY> Welcome <?php echo $_POST['applicant']; ?>! </BODY> </HTML> What I would like to use is: echo ("Welcome " . applicant . "!"); But it doesn't work, so I guess I'll worry about learning what works first. -- David M.
