Hi, in the meantime I set the value of register_globals = off the next to on. I get the same result. The following script I use for testing the formfieldvalues <? echo $begriff ?> The value I take from a normal formfield by the default transfermethod. After switching to the php-script I get a blank page without the value I inserted into the textfield.
