You are not giving us much to go on. A little more detail would help.

Anyway, Here is something that you can put in second page that will make figuring out how to get at the data much easier. Just put the following near the top of the second page:

printf("POST:<br /><pre>");print_r($_POST);printf("</pre>"); 
printf("GET:<br /><pre>");print_r($_GET);printf("</pre>"); 

This will dump to the browser the contents of the _POST and _GET variables.

well there are two choices. the choice is the contents area to update or to insert the text to. so i need to know how i would get the vars for the radio buttons or a list. ill try the suggestion u gave me.
