$topicID = $_GET['showtopic'];
Right?
Yes. And if you have a form that uses the POST method, it would be
$_POST['element'].
Some of the other variables you will eventually need:

Subject: Retrieving parameters passed from .html...?
Hey all,
My first post here..., new to php and so far doing great picking it up...
but, tonight I'm having a brain fart...
How do you pick up (read) the parameters passed into a php script from an
html file?
Given... http://somewhere/dosomething.php?showtopic=99999
How do you read or get the value showtopic and the value of 99999?
I know this is simple but I'm pulling my hair out here...
Thanks!
Anthony
