Passing data via post through forms

[Yesideez]

Just been playing with something new...

I've got a script to read a text box in a form and the menu is comprising of buttons rather than standard links. When a menu button is selected the script reads the text box and stores the contents in a variable. Depending on which menu button is clicked I need to pass the contents of the variable to another script using header("Location: ???.php");

I've tried this:
[code]$_POST['textbox']=$_POST['textbox'];[/code]
But it doesn't work - hope you know what I mean - any ideas?

The contents of the text box must not be carried in the URL or a session variable.

$_POST is a read only variable... the only way you can write in them, is through a submited form.

you'd need to use
[code]$textbox=$_POST['textbox'];[/code]

Yes I've got that earlier in the script already, was just wondering if there was any way of assigning my own data into $_POST - seems not :(

Why can't you use sessions? That's the logical way of doing this.
