You can try it here: https://rotherforth.net/secureEmail/secureEmail.php You can't read the email, but you can enter any 4 digit code.

Bad news, my last post work around did not work. Let me explain what going on. The user runs securteEmail.php which is a form that sends an email with a random 4 digit code to the users email. The user reads his email and inserts the code sent to his email in the secureEmail.php form, which invokes the action file SCAction.php. The code in the form is successfully sent and read by SCAction.php. Tthe problem, the original code has to be compared to the email code. There for has to be sent to SCAction.php. The email code entered in the form is read from the form by SCaction.php. I need the action code to fetch the users email code that is entered. **** The secureEmail.php code: **** <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>Seurity Email Service</title></head> <body> <?php $SC2 = $input[$rand_keys[0]]; echo "SC code sent = ", $SC2, "<br>"; echo "After the SC code is sent to the Email, we are at the Form <br>"; ?> <FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="SCAction.php/?cmd= set&var1=$SC2"> <H2>Security Code Service</H2> <p>Enter the Security Code from the recipient's Email & Submit </p> <?php $Scode = substr("$Scode", 0, -4); ?> <INPUT NAME="Scode", value = <?php echo (""); ?> > <!-- <input type="submit" /> --> <?php $Scode = $_POST['Scode']; Echo "Scode = $Scode <br>"; echo "<br>Security code (SC = $SC)"; echo " sent to ", $to_address, "<br>"; ?> </FORM> </body> </html> ****The SCAction.php code:**** <?php if(isset($_GET['$SC'])){ $SC=stripslashes($_GET['$SC']); } Echo "SC = $SC <br>"; $Scode = $_POST['Scode']; Echo "Scode = $Scode <br>"; if ($SC === $Scode) { echo "Success, this is the Security Code from the Email : {$_POST['Scode']}<br />"; } else { echo "<br>Illegal Security Code from the Email <br>"; } ?>

After further investigation I don’t need to invoke an action.php file. I think, the comparison can be performed in sceureEmail form used by the user. It still would nice to know if a variable can be passed to the forms action file. Thank for your help in forming my understanding.

Thanks for your reply, here is the php code $SC2 = $input[$rand_keys[0]]; <FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="SCAction.php/?cmd= set&var1=$SC2"> This passes $SC2 not the contents of $SC2, contents of $SC2 is a 4 char text ex. AAAA

How, if possible, can a $var be passed to the forms action php file? I tried everything with no success.
