Http POST Question

[arekdal]

Is it possible to pass a variable through POST using
hypertext?
<currently stuck with GET>

echo ("<a href ='$PHP_SELF?&myvariable=newvalue'>link</a>")

</currently stuck with GET>


Or is POST limited to forms?

<form method='POST'>
</form>

Thanks,

Andrew

the query string format is like this:

http://www.domain.org/index.php?first=somevalue&second=yavalue

notice that in your code you've an ampersand (&) immediately after the '?'.... the '&' is used for separating several values you want to pass like above, so you shouldn't have the ampersand above...

and no i don't think you can use the query to POST variables...

btw, your PHP code should be like this:

echo ("<a href ='$PHP_SELF?myvariable=newvalue'>link</a>"):

Use hidden fields to pass paramaters via POST

<form method='POST'> 
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="myvariable" VALUE="newvalue">
</form>
