What do you mean by this?

I am sure that this question has been asked. With over 80 pages, it is probably in there somewhere, but I have not found an exact match to my problem. So maybe someone can help me.

I want to call my copy of the hack in this way:

where ### is the post I want to reply to.

I can generate this link without problem. My form begins executing. I can echo to the screen for verification, the "p" variable, by accessing $_REQUEST['p'].

I want to set the variable $formreplythreadid to this "p" variable. I have tried various variations:
or this
I also attempted to add a variable to the form like other user input variables, using
something like this:
With the value defined in this way, I tried to assign to it in two different ways. First I tried to directly assign to it:
and lastly I tried to allow the user to input the value via the form input screen. This works so I know a variable will work. But I cant figure out how to have the program assign the variable

In all cases, I could echo the value to the screen with success; however, in all cases when I tried to assign my variables value to $formreplythreadid, the value seems to be empty.

How can I set the value $formreplythreadid to a value that is generated at runtime?

Normally, I'd see the thank you screen then get redirected back to forumhome I believe. Now, I see the thank you screen and that's it, it doesn't redirect to anywhere.

Hi Daggerzz i have the same problem but with threads... I guess that is the solution... :

//ENABLE FORM TO REPLY TO EXISTING THREAD - 1 = yes, 0 = no
$formreply = "1";
if ($dropdownanswer1 == 'Mage'){
$formreplythreadid = "43";}
if ($dropdownanswer1 == 'Warlock'){
$formreplythreadid = "34";}
if ($dropdownanswer1 == 'Warrior'){
$formreplythreadid = "41";}
if ($dropdownanswer1 == 'Rogue'){
$formreplythreadid = "42";}
if ($dropdownanswer1 == 'Priest'){
$formreplythreadid = "40";}
if ($dropdownanswer1 == 'Hunter'){
$formreplythreadid = "46";}
if ($dropdownanswer1 == 'Paladin'){
$formreplythreadid = "45";}
if ($dropdownanswer1 == 'Shaman'){
$formreplythreadid = "44";}
//EXISTING THREAD ID FOR FORM TO REPLY IN

Can you explain me where you have added this code please? $x = $_REQUEST['p'];

I put this in the form hack right after I defined the variables. i know this is teh right value because i can make it display the number. The problem is if iIuse that as a variable for $formreplythreadid it gives me an error. I need to be able to post this to any number of threads so a drop down box would not work.

That's how it is on mine too, it never redirected. I would like to know if you find out how.

Also, I'd like to beg/plead one more last time if someone can help me set up a birthday question so the three drop down menus are side by side on the same line.

Also I will plead again someone please help me!

I make my question in a quote because after posted this, I saw Daggerzz's post. The problem is similar. However, I typed my question so I don't want to delete it :">

Thanks to Abe I was able to get the triple drop down question working.
