trying to embed a field into html
 

guys, i've posted the details of my little ninny problem here:
http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...095#post539095

for those not interested in the other thread on the .com, here's the skinny...

i'm trying to feed the user's location into the 'value' field of an html form for submission to another site.

this is what i have in the template:
< INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="p" VALUE="$posts[field2]" size=21 >

this is the source of the output html:
< INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="p" VALUE="" size=21 >

what did i do wrong?

Its $post[field2] not $posts[field2]

Also, thats bad XHTML, use:
AND, on most pages, $post[fieldx] isn't defined so it wont work

Omg I Am Such A Friggin Moron.

is there an icon to hang you head in public shame?
professional coder? ha!!! i laugh at myself.
