Your <textarea>s are outside of the <form>

And use $_POST['zwords'] instead of just $zwords in case register_globals is off.

Sorry about that. It did execute my if but shows nothing for $zwords. So my echo shows: xxxxxx
after entering "cat" and pressing my calc your entry.
How do I get my value(s) I entered in to work with?


Thanks

Just to make it simple this is my whole page for now, when putting words in the textarea 
"zwords" and hitting "calc your entry" it never goes into my if statement:

<html>
<body>
<?
if ($_POST['$calcentry'] == "Calc Your Entry") {
echo 'xxx' . $zwords . 'xxx';
} ?>
<textarea name="zwords" rows="20" cols="30" wrap />
</textarea>
<textarea name="zoutput" rows="20" cols="70" wrap />
</textarea> <BR>
<form action="<?=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>" method="post"> <br>
<input type="submit" name="calcentry" value="Calc Your Entry" /> </form>
</body>
</html>
