I am a php programmmer, and I have even written a tutorial for learning to use mysql with php. Oddly enough I never figured out how to submit information from a form and to another page that does not have action2.php?name=thename&message=themessageishere in the url. The reason I need this is because if you have it too long it causes problems, and well I need it for my bulletin board I've been programming. So how would you go about making a page such as form.php and the action page to be action2.php with out any extra long stuff...?

By the way, the tutorial is located here, and it so be remain at that forum.

I got it nevermind. I had totally forgotten about the:

Code:

<form action="process.php" method="POST">

The method POST part.

Sorry, but no. I give permissions to websites other than my own and MyCUBIX.com later. Thank you for asking though, I apreciate it.
I will give anyone permission to give a link from their site to the url address of the current located to anyone. You might want to "frame it", so the user can get back even easier.

The tutorial has inspired me to write a book about it... I'm not sure if I will.
