I just read the release notes and do not believe they are referring to my
dilemma.
Here is the code I am using. Just a basic form
<<Form.php>>
<body>
<form action="form_act.php" method="get" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<p>Phrase:
<input name="phrase" type="text" id="phrase" >
</p>
<input name="Submit" type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
</body>
<<Form_act.php>>
<?
if ($phrase){ echo "Phrase-- $phrase";}
Else{ echo "No Variables";}
?>
