When the "submit" button is hit, the form executes the script located at the URL specified in the "action" attribute of the <form> tag. So do this: $script_target = "./nameofscript.php"; print "<form method="get" action="$script_target">..... "; in your PHP. If you're new to this, don't worry about using PHP_SELF to call the same script, just make a new page with the code that handles the first page's data. But eventually you'll probably want to clean up your style and use switch() statements or if statements to keep it all in one page. (Right now I'm working on a 700-line monster that doesn't even include any HTML!) Erik ---- Erik Price Web Developer Temp Media Lab, H.H.
