    undefined index

    i take information from a database and then have the collected values entered into a form with hidden fields.

    Code:
      <input type="hidden" name="tempID" id="tempID" value='<?php print $random_digit;?>'/> 
  <input type="hidden" name="htmlcss" id="htmlcss" value='<?php print $htmlcss;?>'/>      
  <input type="hidden" name="header" id="header" value='<?php print $header;?>'/>
  <input type="hidden" name="nav" id="nav" value='<?php print $nav;?>'/>      
  <input type="hidden" name="titleWrap01" id="titleWrap01" value='<?php print $titleWrap01;?>'/> 
  <input type="hidden" name="titleWrap02" id="titleWrap02" value='<?php print $titleWrap02;?>'/>      
  <input type="hidden" name="subheadWrap01" id="subheadWrap01" value='<?php print $subheadWrap01;?>'/>
  <input type="hidden" name="subheadWrap02" id="subheadWrap02" value='<?php print $subheadWrap02;?>'/>      
  <input type="hidden" name="flashWrap01" id="flashWrap01" value='<?php print $flashWrap01;?>'/> 
  <input type="hidden" name="flashWrap02" id="flashWrap02" value='<?php print $flashWrap02;?>'/>      
  <input type="hidden" name="flash01" id="flash01" value='<?php print $flashURL;?>'/>
  <input type="hidden" name="flashVar" id="flashVar" value='<?php print $flashVar;?>'/>      
  <input type="hidden" name="flash02" id="flash02" value='<?php print $flash02;?>'/> 
  <input type="hidden" name="flashWrap03" id="flashWrap03" value='<?php print $flashWrap03;?>'/>      
  <input type="hidden" name="descriptionWrap01" id="descriptionWrap01" value='<?php print $descriptionWrap01;?>'/>
  <input type="hidden" name="descriptionWrap02" id="descriptionWrap02" value='<?php print $descriptionWrap02;?>'/>      
  <input type="hidden" name="generalWrap01" id="generalWrap01" value='<?php print $generalWrap01;?>'/> 
  <input type="hidden" name="generalWrap02" id="generalWrap02" value='<?php print $generalWrap02;?>'/>      
  <input type="hidden" name="aboutWrap01" id="aboutWrap01" value='<?php print $aboutWrap01;?>'/>
  <input type="hidden" name="aboutWrap02" id="aboutWrap02" value='<?php print $aboutWrap02;?>'/>      
  <input type="hidden" name="paymentWrap01" id="paymentWrap01" value='<?php print $paymentWrap01;?>'/> 
  <input type="hidden" name="paymentWrap02" id="paymentWrap02" value='<?php print $paymentWrap02;?>'/>
  <input type="hidden" name="termsWrap01" id="termsWrap01" value='<?php print $termsWrap01;?>'/>      
  <input type="hidden" name="termsWrap02" id="termsWrap02" value='<?php print $termsWrap02;?>'/>
  <input type="hidden" name="footer" id="footer" value='<?php print $footer;?>'/>
    when i submit the form with all the other text fields filled out......then in the file to save it to a database it brings up the error....."unde fined index" although i only have 1 index set.

          Cheers, mwasif.

          You're receiving an undefined index error because you're looking (in an array) for a value that doesn't exist. Maybe you've written a typo? I don't have time to check the to files.

          The error will give you a line number, if you show us it, we can point out the specific error and give you a fix.

          - Mark.

                  OK. What method are you using for your form? (method=" ... ")

                              Can I see the full form please? It appears you're either naming them (the post array indices) wrong or you're not sumbiting the form correctly.

                                      On save.php do a print_r() of your POST data, to see if the POST array is being populated with the form details.

                                      Code:
                                      print( '<pre>' );
print_r( $_POST );
print( '</pre>' );
