Passing Form Variables

phoenixx · April 28, 2010

It's just not passing the variables. Any clues?

<?
// ad_history_reporter.php
include("dbconnect.php");


if ($viewquantity < 10){
$postviewquantity=10;
}

if ($viewquantity > 10){
// LET'S SETUP THE GET VARIABLES
	$postdaysorter=$_GET['daysorter'];
	$postmonthsorter=$_GET['monthsorter'];
	$poststatussorter=$_GET['statussorter'];
	$postperformancesorter=$_GET['performancesorter'];
	$postviewquantity=$_GET['viewquantity'];
}
echo $postdaysorter . "<br>";
echo $postviewquantity;
?>

You're form has method="post" - the variables will show up in $_POST[] instead of $_GET[].

You should never use PHP_SELF as a form action as it leaves you vulnerable to XSS attacks. Instead just write the name of the file.
