Can you post your whold code? Have you put your to define the form action page in some JavaScript events? Otherwise if you have loaded the code before the form tag, then it must work.

[Chousho]

$action = strtolower($_REQUEST['todo']);
switch ($action) {
case 'outreach letter':
	$form_action = 'outreachletter.php';
	break;
case 'seminar letter':
	$form_action='temp.php';
	break;
case 'outreach postcard':
        $form_action='postcard.php';
	break;
default:
$form_action = 'blah.php';
}
?>
 <form action="<? echo $form_action; ?>" method="post" name="frmTemp" enctype="multipart/form-data" >

Not seeing the rest of the code, I'm not sure. However, this would look alot better as a switch statement like above.
