Ian, nobody can help you based on the code you posted.
It only contains the two forms.
It is the receiving script that needs improvement.

If you want to debug your code try this:
1) Put them in the same form
2) In your receiving script, get the posted variables neatly organised for
futher examination like this:

<pre>
<? print_r($_POST); ?>
</pre>

In that way you'll get everything posted by the form on your screen.

If you want to know how to handle fileuploads in your receiving script, read
it at www.php.net:
