Form problem

[thefollower]

I have a form which processes on a different page but the values won't travel accross and im unsure why... this is is the code:

 

<form name="" method="POST" action="buyhouseformprocess.php" enctype="text/plain" id="Form1" onsubmit="return ValidateForm1(this)">

 

Thats the form's attributes.

 

In the form i have this:

<select name="RegionComboBox" size="1" id="Combobox2" style="position:absolute;left:240px;top:388px;width:150px;font-family:MS Shell Dlg;z-index:4">
<option value=""> </option>
<option value="South Region">South Region</option>
<option value="South East Region">South East Region</option>
<option value="North East Region">North East Region</option>
<option value="North West Region">North West Region</option>
<option value="South West Region">South West Region</option>
</select>

<input type="submit" id="Button1" name="BuyHouse" value="Buy House" style="position:absolute;left:272px;top:626px;width:95px;height:24px;z-index:9">

 

Then the process page has this:

 

$Area = $_POST['RegionComboBox'];

 

 

When i echo'd $Area it was blank. Any idea's as to why?

Not too sure but I don't think you close options e.g. no </option> ???

Nah you do cos otherwise when you pick one itll assume it all as one giant option unless they are seperated.

Any reason for this?

 

<option value=""> </option>

 

I can't see why it wouldn't work comparing to my similar code  I use which i know does work.  I just presume it's showing blank becuase you are selecting the blank option
