input passing parameter

[DickEp]

OK, I have struggled with this for a couple of days.

I have a PHP file with form. On this form, there are two buttons. One does the action of calling "process_data.php". Sounds OK, huh? BUT..... I want the button to not only call it, but pass a variable ($tcid) that is generated along the way. So.. here is my code for the form:
<form id="form1" name="form1 method="post" action="process_data.php?tcid=$tcid">

Now pressing the button (that is later), the "stuff" passed is "&tcid" or in other words, the variable name. I have confirmed this by echoing the result in the receiving page.

HELP...........

The main data from the form will be in $_POST. The part in your "action" parameter will be in $_GET.

Is that what you mean?
