Hmm, perhaps I didn't explain clearly. To put it another:
1. A script sends an email to a user with sign-in details.
2. The user clicks a [submit] button in the email message called
"Quick Sign In"
3. A web browsers opens to http://www.website.com/signin.php (from
the <form method="post" action="http://www.website.com/sign.php";> in
the email)
4. Signin.php looks for $_POST["signindetails"] and auto-fills the form.
Except the form post is not posting signindetails...
The e-mail client may very well be ignoring the POST request. To
diagnose this, you can use Ethereal or some other packet sniffing
software. That will also tell you the contents of fields submitted in
the POST/GET request.
Most certainly, what you want to do is not possible. I say this because
Hi5 has eschewed that technique in favor of placing a hyperlink with an
argument that contains a "validation code". Thus, when you click on the
link (which has the validation code embedded), you're directed to the
page in question and automatically logged in. To implement that, you'd
need a table that correlates validation codes with user IDs on your Web
application.

Have you tried print_r($_POST) ?
