Errr.
localhost is going to end up being THEIR localhost, which is, like,
their own computer where the browser is, which is very very very
unlikely to have your moviesite.php script on it, if you see what I
mean...
Unless YOU are running this on your own desktop or something.
I almost never use a server name for this reason. If you simply use an
absolute path, it'll point to whatever machine (local dev, live server,
etc...) it happens to be running on without you having to care.
i.e. <a href='/moviesite.php?favMovie=$favMovie'>
