Could someone please tell my why this won't work. THe value purchase.value seems to be blank. Is there any way to get the value of a radio box?

<tr>
<td width="14%"><div align="center">
<input type="radio" name="purchase" id="printed" value="printed" />
</div></td>
<td width="86%">printed
Order Printed Version <br />
$13.95 +
4.50 shipping &amp; handling</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><div align="center">
<input type="radio" name="purchase" id="pdf" value="pdf" />
</div></td>
<td> <div align="left">pdf
Order PDF Version (3.6MB PDF)</div></td>
</tr>
</table>

[code green]

Your code is hard to follow without CODE tags.
But you are not reading the $_POST variables.
Register global variables were turned off a few versions ago
And this is a mixture of javascript and php

if ($purchase.value

I suggest studying PHP basics before you go any further.
