The due dates are only an indication of how you should pace yourself. The due date for the final project is the important one.

Done with this task.
I've realised the importance of UPPERCASE and lowercase smile

in PHP.
I changed the string index 'Romeo...' to lowercase and i cudnt
pull the variable thru on the nex page...

Mac, isn't there a way that PHP can destinguish between
UPPERCASE and lowercase; HTML recognizes your code whether it's
CAPS ON or off..

Well, case is a powerful tool. Code neatly and code correctly - don't be lazy now smiling smiley

BTW, there are reserved words in PHP which you cannot use to define variable - these a words PHP uses for itself. $case is one. Do a google for predefined php words. You use them, you will spent hours looking for a problem you did not know about.

Help please! My code:

<?php

$books["Romeo and Juliet"] = "William Shakespeare";
$books["Exobiology: An Introduction"] = "Jonathan Drake";
$books["War and Peace"] = "Leo Tolstoy";
$books["Portrait of the Artist"] = "James Joyce";
$books["The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe"] = "CS Lewis";

$author = $books[$SelectedBook];

echo "The author of $SelectedBook is $author.";

?>

When I view book.html and call the array, I get The author of is . in my browser. What am I doing wrong?

Put @extract($_POST); just below the <?php and everything will work fine.
You may want to read on "register globals", $_POST, $_GET, etc.
