I have 2 pages, one has a submission field with a bunch of variables in it and the other takes all this information and will make a few files and set things up for the script to easily read, the end result will kinda be a bulletin board using flat files, anyways this is the submission field:
echo "<div>";
echo "<form action='/submit.php' method='post' enctype='multipart/form-data'>";
// User Feilds
echo "<b>Game Name: </b> <input type='text' name='sub_name' size='50' /><br />";
echo "Game Image: <input name='sub_image' type='file' /> <br />";
echo "Number of Players: <select>";

[edit reason] no URLs, please [/edit]
I tried your code and it appears to work fine even without any modification, $_POST['sub_name'] shows correctly for me, also $_POST['sub_date'].
try this to get a list of all $_POST values to see if you are getting correct values on submit.php, if yes then it could be a duplicate variable name somewhere in your code, overwriting existing value.
this goes on top of your submit.php just to check,
echo "<pre>";
print_r($_POST);
echo "</pre>";
description
[sub_type] => ware
)
I don't even have a sub_date? and none of my drop down menus are working either, but that may be another problem I just noticed it and havent check into it yet
Array
(
[sub_name] => Test NAME
[sub_date] => Test Date
[sub_publisher] => edsdsdsdsd
[sub_online] => on
[sub_miisupport] => on
[sub_dlc] => on
[sub_points] => 23232
[sub_description] => asdasdasdas
[sub_type] => ware
)
