Hello,

A novice question....

I've a script that uses GET method and is called with two parameters
(example.php?arg1=val1&arg2=val2). This script outputs a html form with
two list boxes and a display button next to them.

Everytime I execute this form (i.e., select from listboxes and click on
the display button), I want call the same "example.php" script with the
selected listbox values (say, option1, option2) as well as the previous
arguments (va11, val2) - total 4 arguments.

I tried the following (hoping it would work;)
<form name="ex" method="GET" action="example.php?arg1=val1&arg2=val2"
target="_parent">
<select>....</select> //option1
<select>....</select> //option2
<input type="submit" value="Display"/>
</form>

But when I click on the display, it calls example.php with only 2
values (option1, option2). My question is, is there a way to
- pass the first two arguments - val1,val2 (along with listbox values)

OR
- store the val1, val2 as static variables so that they are available
everytime the script is called (without having to pass them as
arguments).




Appreciate your help.

TIA
Hemanth
