Please post questions or comments about this tutorial below.

You do not need to use the $_POST["var_name"]/$_GET["var_name"] array to access variables you can also access them through $var_name in either case. Though it is good to know the $_POST/$_GET arrays - you can generate variables on the fly with them.

Also if you're having trouble with $_POST/$_GET arrays try using $HTTP_POST_VARS/$HTTP_GET_VARS (the older versions used that array).

Actually, you may only use the short hand($var_name, as you put it) if register_globals is on in the php.ini file, the default is off, as of PHP 4.2. So it's best to use $_POST['var_name']/$_GET['var_name']

What would be the process.php part? How would I get it to send to someone?

How can i do form to store e-mails to TXT files with PHP?
Any suggestions?

the process.php part is

<?php
echo 'Hello '.$_POST['name'].', I will email
you at '.$_POST['email'].' as soon as possible.';
?>

as it said above. to get the data inputed into the form to mail to someone, ad the following code:
mail("nobody@example.com", "My Subject", $_POST['var_name']);
correct me if I'm wrong, but I beleive that's the way to do it.

How do I handle Radios?

Please email me the answer!!
