The page is a fax client that allows large numbers of files to be faxed
off to multiple recipients. I have a whole lot of buttons and text
inputs that refer to different files. The receiving page loops through
$POST and identifies the file that the button refers to. All text
inputs and checkboxes etc need to be sent to the receiving page, so I
can't use multiple <form> elements. The example I gave was just an
illustrative example - its not from my code. As far as I can see this
seems to be the only way of doing it. The files are .PDF files created
by cups-pdf - so they are FULL of underscores. If I use an <a href>
tag, the POST variables don't get sent to the receiving page.
bin2hex looks like the way to go.
