What I don't understand is why you're getting kind in the first place at all. The form you're referring to, I presume, is this one (simplified HTML to avoid word wrapping in email): <form name="find" action="" method="post" style="background-color:#EEEEEE"> <fieldset> <legend>Regionen suchen mit ...</legend> <select name="belongstoid" class="small" > <option value=0 selected> </option> <option value=1>Verband: Fussballverband Region Zrich (FVRZ)</option> </select> <select name="state" class="mini" > <option value=0 selected>- Alle -</option> <option value=canceled>Gel�cht</option> <option value=registered>Eingetragen</option> <option value=validated>Gltig</option> </select> </fieldset> </form> >From that, you shouldn't be submitting a kind variable either way. All I can think of is the PHP_SELF submission, which would include the same GET query as you used to get to that page. I don't recall off hand if PHP_SELF includes the full URI or not. Try this: print_r($_GET); print_r($_POST); print_r($_REQUEST); Yes, you can end up with both a GET and a POST. (I'm not sure if it's technically legal in the HTTP standard, but it can happen in practice, IIRC.) My best guess at the moment is that "kind" is ending up in the wrong one somehow.
