Problem with post and echo $_POST['var']

[ozeh]

Hi,

when I used metod post in a form, then i read posted variable and try
to print, I have :
In FORM text(variable_n r1) = 'test_var'
In php
<?php
echo $_POST['variable_nr1'];
?>
on screen :
test_varvariabl e_nr1=test_var

what's wrong on my server ?

You're not being all that clear here... but perhaps you should try using
$_GET rather then $_POST.

If the vars are in the URL, you want $_GET.

the echo you've shown would output 'test_var' the rest is output by
something else in your code. Show us the whole .php file and we'll point it
out to you.
