    <p>I need to submit a form for classified ads on our website when a user clicks the submit button. The price of an ad is based on how many words along with how many weeks it will run so the PayPal button I have reads the hidden "amount" field I have set up. How can I have my form submit and then redirect to PayPal with the hidden amount variable still holding its value? Any other methods would also be welcome. </p> <p>Edit: Ok, I've made my own php script to email the information to me from my original form, I had been using a cgi script my webhost hosted.</p> <p>Now I email myself just fine and I'm trying to find out how to send my hidden variables to paypal from there when I redirect to it. Heres what I'm trying right now. </p> <pre><code>&lt;?php $to = "info.whatzup@gmail.com" ; $from = $_REQUEST['email'] ; $name = $_REQUEST['Name'] ; $headers = "From: $from"; $subject = "Classified Tests"; $fields = array(); $fields{"Name"} = "Name"; $fields{"email"} = "Email"; $fields{"Phone"} = "Phone"; $fields{"Address"} = "Street Address"; $fields{"City"} = "City"; $fields{"State"} = "State"; $fields{"Zip"} = "Zip Code"; $fields{"Classification"} = "Classification"; $fields{"Ad-Headline"} = "Headline"; $fields{"Ad-Content"} = "Ad Content"; $fields{"Words"} = "Word Count"; $fields{"Weeks"} = "Weeks to Run"; $fields{"WordCount"} = "Total Words"; $fields{"Rate"} = "Word Rate"; $fields{"GrossAmountDue"} = "Gross Amount"; $fields{"NonProfit"} = "Non Profit Ad?"; $item_name = $_POST['item_name']; $amount = $_POST['amount']; $currency_code = $_POST['currency_code']; $no_shipping = $_POST['item_number']; $shipping = $_POST['item_number']; $cmd = $_POST['cmd']; $bn = $_POST['bn']; $no_note = $_POST['item_number']; $lc = $_POST['lc']; $business = $_POST['business']; $body = "This Ad has been submitted:\n\n"; foreach($fields as $a =&gt; $b){ $body .= sprintf("%20s: %s\n",$b,$_REQUEST[$a]); } if($from == '') {print "You have not entered an email, please go back and try again";} else { if($name == '') {print "You have not entered a name, please go back and try again";} else { $send = mail($to, $subject, $body, $headers); if($send) {header( "Location: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" );} else {print "We encountered an error sending your mail, please contact us at info.whatzup@gmail.com"; } } } ?&gt; </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
