Yes, I know that, but I didn't want to put 30 or 40 lines in an email...

True.

Not true. What I said is that I very often (almost always, in fact)  
use the same variable names for a $_GET or $_POST and then in the  
subsequent variable.

On this page, I have 2 session variables that I read in and use for a  
URL:

$the_db = $_SESSION['the_db'];
$return_link = $_SESSION['return_link'];

Is this a bad thing to do? If so, I'm wondering why it hasn't been a  
problem in other pages. I pass around things like userIDs all the  
time, and I would normally save it in the same session variable name  
that I might use later in the page, and it never throws an error...

Thanks for any help...
