I working on another "learning" project. In this one, I am attempting to move a radio button selection ("varname") to another page in order to do a MySQL query, etc., using the $_POST method.

Both of the lines below seem to work the exact same within the HTML table statements that I'm using. However, with #1, the $_POST turns up empty. With #2, the $_POST does have the appropriate value.

1. <?php echo "value = $varname" ; ?>

2. value = "<?php $varname ?> "

What is the difference?

Thanks.

Wait...

Should statement #2 be...?

value = "<?php echo $varname ; ?>"

...Just thought about the ECHO.

Yesss! The echo solves the problem!
