Passing variable to the third form

[asunpraise]

To simplify my purpose, I have three forms here:
1. contains input field with accountName
<form method=&quot;POST&quot; action=&quot;choose.php&quot;>
2. choose.php, this only processes the data and redirects to other pages according to different account names, this is one of them: header(&quot;Location: homec.php&quot;

3. homec.php

Here is the question: I couldn't pass acccountName to homec.php.

Any ideas?

did you try adding it to the url : header(&quot;Location: homec.php?<print $accountName?>&quot;

Sometimes, when my code just won't behave, I take it outside and make it listen to britney spears music, and when it comes back it's really well behaved. I wonder if it's suffering from post tramatic stress syndrome now..

Sorry, it doesn't seem to work.

Actually, I would need the accountName throughout the pages, so it will be more than 3 pages using it. Shall I define it as global variable? I don't know how global variables work at all.

use a session maybe? Sometimes, when my code just won't behave, I take it outside and make it listen to britney spears music, and when it comes back it's really well behaved. I wonder if it's suffering from post tramatic stress syndrome now..

you can try:
session_start();
$_SESSION[&quot;AccountName&quot;] = &quot;value of inputbox&quot;;

on the pages that will use it:
session_start();
$accntName = $_SESSION[&quot;AccountName&quot;];
echo $accntName;
