You could have one form, with multiple inputs or buttons. ><form id="var" action="test.php" method="post"> This button will pass the value var=12 <button type="submit" name="var" value="12">Click Here</button><br /> This button will pass the value var=14 <button type="submit" name="var" value="14">Click Here</button><br /> This button will pass the value var=16 <button type="submit" name="var" value="16">Click Here</button><br /> This button will pass the value var=18 <button type="submit" name="var" value="18">Click Here</button><br /> This button will pass the value var=20 <button type="submit" name="var" value="20">Click Here</button> </form>

stray ----------------------------------- Wow Patrick -- What a scary event. I'm glad that you pulled through, and also hope that you have a complete recovery. Welcome back.

You could submit a form value using method="post". That way the variable would not show in the url. Something like this: ><form id="var" action="test.php" method="post"> <button type="submit" name="var" value="12">Click Here</button> </form> Then in test.php, assign $_POST[var] to whatever variable that you use in your script for the value passed to it. Like: ><?php $input = $_POST['var']; echo $input; ?> It would also be a good idea to write some code to test the contents of the $_POST value to make sure that nothing is being passed to your script that you are not expecting and don't want.

The W3Schools site that Dick recommended is an excellent resource, and as one who has been learning HTML, CSS, and PHP on his own for the past couple of years, I would also recommend it. I have the site bookmarked on my computer at home, and refer to it often when creating or editing a web page. There are sections on that site for HTML, XHTML, CSS, XML, PHP, Java, and much more. Not only are the tutorials easy to follow, but being a tutorial offered by the W3C consortium, you will be learning how to code HTML and CSS that will validate.

I read about a cross site scripting vulnerability that was reported several days ago affecting eTicket v1.5.6-RC3, eTicket v1.5.6-RC2, eTicket v1.5.5.2, and older versions, due to inadequate filtering of some input data. It is advisable to upgrade to v1.5.6-RC4

You might be able to accomplish this with a survey script, like Lime Survey http://limesurvey.org/ . With it you could create a web based survey that could be public, or you could set up a mail group where the recipients would receive a keyed link that would enable them to participate, and identify each participant's responses. I've used the script to send surveys to a set of recipients, but there are a lot more applications since it is very flexible and easily customizable.

Pagoda, Thanks for the additional information. Next time I need to research something like this, I'll try the SANS site.

Pmachine! I wondered what the pm stood for. Thanks for the info.

For the past couple of days, I've noticed some interesting entries in the error log of one of my sites. It appears as though several people are trying to find scripts in: /pm/add_ons/mail_this_entry/mail_autocheck.php or /pm/add_ons/mail_this_entry/mailserver.php I don't have anything like this on the site, so it generates a "File does not exist" error. Is this a spammer looking for a commonly known vulnerable script?

Now THAT is really cool!!! Thanks for the link.

The bat hurt enough, but those bounces really leave a mark. My favorite was at 177m when he did a head plant.
