As a matter of fact, the origin of the pages are from your PHP 8 Hours videos.

I did echo the $query field, and nothing is printed.   Not surprised, 
because I'm not really sure how to capture the original query and 
pass it to the next search result page containing the alternate sort 
order.

I do have the following lines on the initial search result page, 
which attempts to accomplish what I am trying to do.  I'm still at 
the stage of cutting and pasting code from other examples to figure 
out how this all works:

<snip>
$query = $_POST['query'];
<snip>
$search->AddDBParam('query',$query);
<snip>
<a href="search_result_first.php?<?php echo $query; ?>">First</a>
