Webpage response to selection & $_POST

[Philip Thompson <prthomp@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi all.

I have a list of users in a database that I would like to show on a 
dynamic webpage. With each of these users that shows up on the page, 
there is going to be a checkbox next to their name so that I can 
perform multiple tasks, such as 'Remove User' or 'Modify Information'. 
I have all of the appropriate information showing up on the page, 
including the checkboxes.

My question is... if I select a checkbox for a user, the other pages do 
not even recognize that I have selected that checkbox and I am using 
the $_POST method - why is that? I have even attempted to use the 
import_request_variables function - no luck. So, I cannot verify which 
users I want to perform an action on.

Anyone have any ideas? Snippets of code to follow...

Thanks in advance,
~Philip
