    when a user clicks a certain link, I want the page to reload with a new variable value. I couldn't find an adequate tutorial to explain this, so if anyones understands how to do this, please help me. Thanks.

    You would need to use a POST or a session variable if you want the variable to be hidden from the URL.

    oh, well that's not important.

    I thought "hidden" meant simply not sumbitted via a traditional form with input fields. my bad.
