Pagination and $_POST question

[Accurax]

I'm posting some variables to a script that runs a search based on the POST variables that i assign to normal variables, but i also want to have the page paginated.

 

It all works, however, when i try to go to any page but the first, i get an error telling me that my post variables are undefined, the error code looks like this:

 

Notice: Undefined index: search_sex in C:\wamp\www\mydirectory\test.php on line 17

 

i get one of those for each of my POST variables.

 

I have tried to move the POST's into SESSIONS but it made no difference.

 

Is there a way around this?

That will only pop up when a user does not select one of the options. You might have a variable name mismatch somewhere, if you don't get that on the first page, but when you try pass it to another its blank. Check it is also set on the first page.

ive tried passing the variables into sessions to keep them alive, as i thought they were dying after the first page was moved on from.

 

problem is i could have 500 results, and i only want to display them in blocks of 10 or so per page, so i cant ignore this functionality.

 

no matter what i do it actually asks (see abover error) for the $_POST variable "by name" ... search_sex etc

 

all very confusing especially since the only time search_sex is even used on this page is when i assign it

 

$sex = $_POST['search_sex'];

[mjlogan]

paste

 

print_r($_POST);

 

at the top of the page, as see if it outputs, $_POST[search_sex] in the array.

 

Because if

 

$sex = $_POST['search_sex'];

 

is line 17, then check your HTML that the field is called search_sex

it is .....

 

I think its down to subsequent pages not recognising the POST variables.... so im going to play with some isset ifelse statements and see if i can get something that works

 

thanks guys
