Form Validation, variable problem

[geronimi]

Hi,

i use phpdev and I have a stupid problem.

I use a form and I want to pass a variable (name) from one page to
another (overview.php).

.........
<form method="post" action="overview.php">
<table width="100%" border="0">
<tr>
<td width="24%">Name : </td>
<td width="76%"><input type="text" name="name"></td>
</tr>
<tr> ................

when I fill in something, the name variable will be passed when i press
the submit button, but the strange thing is, that it doens't pass
anything to overview.php !!!!

a piece of overview.php:
......
<td width="18%">Naam van het bedrijf: </td>
<td width="82%"><?php echo $naam; ?></td>
......
so it is very easy stuff I want (pass a variable), but in phpdev (have
tried every version i found on the net) i doesn't work, but in my
webserver (www.xyz.be) it works!!!! it give the good value through...

has anybody has a solution? because i need phpdev to work (i go on
holiday a need to finish some stuff)

thx
geronimo

Well, from what i can see
you've got
<td width="76%"><input type="text" name="name"></td>

but here you have

<td width="82%"><?php echo $naam; ?></td>

i don't know if that was a typing error while typing on to the newsgroup,
but it'd probs worked if you changed the input name to naam.
eg.
<td width="76%"><input type="text" name="naam"></td>
