Getting a php variable from one page to another

[debuitls]

hi

 

I have defined a variable on a page that holds a get value from a previous page.

 

$propid = $_GET["id"];

 

I'm trying to access that variable now on a third page.

 

I thought I could just append the variable to the URL that goes to the third page like this.

 

<form name="bid" method="get" action="processbid.php?$propid">

 

But the $propid value does not show up in the URL of the next page?

 

I was just wondering if anybody could see where I'm going wrong?

 

Or maybe if someone knows of a better way to get the variable onto the third page other than using get? I don't really want to use a session though.

 

If anybody could suggest anything it would be great.

 

Thanks

Instead, add this WITHIN your form tag

 

<input type="hidden" name="propid" value="<?php echo($_GET['id']); ?>" />

Thanks ILMV.

 

Much better way of doing it.

 

Cheers.
