I did read a lot of PHP docs and mailing list posts before I posted my question to this list, but never stumbled (and that's the word, I'm afraid!) on the syntax explanation that would untangle this for me. If I want to pass additional variables for processing on the second page, I'm assuming that the syntax would be (where $foo is another variable) <a href="email.php?foo='.$myrow[3].'&?recip='.$myrow[0].'
