Which just goes to show some people will say anything... I don't think this has anything to do with register globals (Sorry toby). Undefined index sounds like php is just warning you that you are using a variable without a value. Since you are using a form to send data, this can occur. To be honest, its a fairly pointless warning, so you probably want to ignore it. In your php.ini file search for and find the error_reporting option. I recommend you change your settings to error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE This should solve your problem.
