When you go through the URL, you're using GET, not POST. ALl you really have to do is this: $parcel_query = "SELECT * FROM land01_02_03 WHERE (PelNumber LIKE ".$_GET["number"].") AND (OnerName1 LIKE ".$_GET["number"].") "; Then you can drop the while loop that extracts the variables from the HTTP array. I'm sure this is but one of many ways to accomplish what you want to do. > -----Original Message----- > From: Danialle Wiltsie [mailto:wiltsied@hotmail.com] > Sent: Thursday, January 23, 2003 8:39 AM > To: php-db@lists.php.net > Subject: Getting values back out of a URL > > > > > > > > > I am trying to get my values back out of a URL that has been > passed from a > page with a form.
