    Okay, when I process a form it goes to the completely wrong directory. In the view source it shows this line of code

    <form method=post action='https://www.circlebfibers.com/index.php?mode=calculate'>

    But the actual line of code is this

    <form method=post action='index.php?mode=calculate'> and this file is on the http://www.circlebfibers.com/order/ directory and is named index.php. Why is this not working!?

    I'm not sure of your exact problem but here is a quick fix...

    <?php
    echo '<form method=post action="index.php">';
    echo '<input type="hidden" name="mode" value="calculate">';
    ?>
    
    PHP:
    It's the same thing...

    I see in IE and FF this HTML:

    <form method=post action='index.php?mode=calculate'>

    What browser are you using?

    Is '?mode=calculate' argument specification valid/recognized in a 'post'?

    I know it's valid in a 'get' (and is the only way you can pass parameters), but I'm not so sure about 'post'.

    Just a question...

    The other way around. Whatever you specify in a get-form after the question mark, will be dropped by the browser. You can, however, specify search arguments in a post-form, but you will have to retrieve them as if you are handling a get-form, while the rest of inputs will be submitted in the body of the response.
