That said - format your URL as a GET string and there's your variable. Ex.: http://server.domain.com/(scriptname)?variable&anothervariable&anothervariable Or - if this url is coming from an already running script, you could post the var to a session var and then send a url without the script name and let your server's default document (index.php ?) receive it and look up the session var, but that's a pretty silly way to handle things just to hide the scriptname. Of course, someone here with much more knowledge than I could very soon make me look stupid :) -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
