I'm sorry I don't know all the correct terminology, that is part of what I'm
hoping to learn Marc.
I'm sorry, but I considered a value entering And exiting a script "passing
thru".
I have spoken to people knowing little about PHP, and they understood how
values can be appended to a URL. This is commonly how values are passed
between web pages. Example:
http://www.domain.com/page.htm?name=Andrea&email=andrea@aol.com&message=textmessage
The destination URL would then contain a function that would parse the
appended information for display and/or passing to next URL.
This may help you understand my objective:
