Postfield in WML does not pass all variables to next WML page

[uitbundig]

I am writing a function as listed below. My problem is that this form passes
only the variable 'state' and not the others.
Can somebody help me?

Thanks,

Gustaaf
function SelectIndia($land,$mcc,$opco,$iru,$cc) {

print 'Staat: <select name="state">

I am writing a function as listed below. My problem is that this form passes only the variable 'state' and not the others.

There are no "anchor", "go" and "postfield" tags in HTML. So, it is not an
PHP-problem but an HTML-problem.

Tim,

I appreciate your help. I can see they use also php-variables in the
postfield variable. Instead of using <anchor> ... </anchor> tags they use
<do type...> ..... </do> tags.
I have tried that code but the same problem stays. In my example the only
variable which is filled is the variable from the <select><option...> tags.
Just a simple example php-code again:

$id = 'abc';

print '
Staat:
<select name="state">
<option value="AP">Andhra Pradesh</option>
<option value="WB">West Bengal</option>
</select>';

print '
<anchor>Accoord
<go href="form.php" method="get">
<postfield name="tp" value="m"/>
<postfield name="id" value="$id"/>
<postfield name="state" value="$state"/>
</go>
</anchor>';

What you see in the get-string is: www.ditz.nl/form.php?tp=m&id=&state=AP

You see that the variable 'tp' has the given value, that the variable 'id'
is empty and that the variable 'state' has given the value from the 'option'
tags. My problem is that the variable 'id' has no value although I have set
this varible to the value 'abc'.

Please your suggestions.

Read up on strings and the expansion of variables:

Daniel, what is TOFU?

Further I have solved the problem now.
The solution is:

Instead of
print '<postfield name="id" value="$id"/>';
you have to write
print '<postfield name="id" value="'.$id.'"/>';

This works fine.

Thanks for your help.

Guess which one I mean :). Why? http://www.leerquoten.nl/ (in dutch)

This works fine.

Or one of the many other ways to generate strings, like :
print "<postfield name='id' value='$id'/>";
(unless WML dicates attributes to be in ")
