tim says: forwarding to list as was sent to me directly: Thanks everyone, I'll look into all of this. I'm trying to learn all of this since I'm starting school next semester for Computer programming and am trying to get some understanding of the concepts by building web pages. If anyone wants to take a look at what I'm working on you can go here <http://www.nchaunts.com/new/index.html> . Any suggestions are appreciated. We're really trying to have the new site live by the end of the month. Another problem I'm having is in the submit to database function the region option is always blank.
