Here is the process I need to solve, from a user point of view. 1) User accesses an HTML document with a form. That form contains a list menu in which a user selects a city, then submits that information. 2) That information is then parsed (with mySQL selecting the value from the list within a given column) 3) Data is then used in supplying the user with a document. I know it's pretty simple, but I'm coming from an ASP/MSSQL background, and my great "use for any case" scripts just can't transer all that well into PHP. I can build the form, but don't know where to go from there. I suspect that it would be best to set up the final PHP document with the ability to read a querystring, and create the information on the fly... like: "results.phtml?city=boston" - - But it's getting the beginning of that PHP document squared away that confuses me. Okay.. I think in the most basic form, what I need is to be able to declare a variable, assign it's value from a querystring, then insert it into my SQL statement. Make sense? Again, thank you for helping - all of you! ~Speedster
