idea?
You have declared this to be a 'GET' operation:
<form action = "testing1.php" method="get">
So, you need to refer to the incoming variable like this:
$HTTP_GET_VARS['id'] (Before PHP 4.1.0)
$_GET['id'] (PHP 4.1.0 and later)
or
$_REQUEST['id'] (PHP 4.1.0 and later).
In your case, that would be:
print "Thanks " . $_GET['userName'];
From the manual page
http://www.php.net/manual/en/languag....external.php:
Example 3.8. A simple HTML form
<form action="foo.php" method="POST">
Name: <input type="text" name="username"><br>
Email: <input type="text" name="email"><br>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit me!">
</form>
Depending on your particular setup and personal preferences, there are many
ways to access data from your HTML forms. Some examples are:
Example 3.9. Accessing data from a simple POST HTML form
<?php
// Available since PHP 4.1.0
print $_POST['username'];
print $_REQUEST['username'];
import_request_variables('p', 'p_');
print $p_username;
// Available since PHP 3. As of PHP 5.0.0, these long predefined
// variables can be disabled with the register_long_arrays directive.
print $HTTP_POST_VARS['username'];
// Available if the PHP directive register_globals = on. As of
// PHP 4.2.0 the default value of register_globals = off.
// Using/relying on this method is not preferred.
print $username;
?>
Using a GET form is similar except you'll use the appropriate GET predefined
variable instead. GET also applies to the QUERY_STRING (the information
after the '?' in an URL). So, for example,
http://www.example.com/test.php?id=3 contains GET data which is accessible
with $_GET['id']. See also $_REQUEST and import_request_variables().
