Hi I’ve add a form as Snippet, it looks like this:

<form id="form1" name="form1" method="get" action="[~[*id*]~]">

<select name="catid" size="8">
	<option value="1">categorie1</option>
	<option value="2">categorie2</option>
	<option value="3">categorie3</option>
	<option value="4">categorie4</option>
 </select>

<select name="blid" size="8">
	<option value="1">bl1</option>
	<option value="2">bl2</option>
	<option value="3">bl2</option>
	<option value="4">bl3</option>
 </select>

 <input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit" />

the ID of my HTML file is 8 so my link looks like "http://127.0.0.1/modx/index.php?id=8"

i want to get the Values of this form with

 $catid=$_GET['catid'];
$blid=$_GET['blid'];"

but it doesnt works sad

It should be like http://support.amd.com/DE/GPUDOWNLOAD/Pages/index.aspx

Any ideas?
Thanks

 $catid=$_GET['catid'];
$blid=$_GET['blid'];"

Do you have this in a snippet as well? And to make sure it is not getting cached data use the snippet uncached [! !] rather than [[ ]]

Yes, it is in the same snippet.

it doesnt work with

<form id="form1" name="form1" method="get" action="[~[*id*]~]">

but if it is not cached i can add an hidden input field

 <input type="hidden" name="id" value="[*id*]" />

so it works

Thanks again!
