I have a field like this

 

<p>Price:</p>

$<input type="text" name="price" size="5" disabled="disabled" value="<?= $price;?>">

 

Im using POST but if I try to echo $_POST['price'] nothing shows up... is it because its disabled? how can I do this if so?

You can use READONLY (instead of DISABLED) if you want the field to be visible to the user and POSTed. However, just a word of warning. Do NOT depend on the value in a hidden (or readonly) field of a form. It is a simple matter for the user to change that value to a price he likes better. When the data gets back to the server, you should lookup the correct price or carry it in a session variable.
