IMHO it seems unlikely that anyone would want EVERY form variable saved in the session (Like the value of your "Submit" button :P)... .. but if you REALLY want to do it, you could do something like this: foreach($_POST as $key => $val) { $_SESSION[$key] = $val; } HTH, Brad -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
