I thought I understood the ‘POST’ concept when using PHP.  
When I click on any photo in firefox, the appropriate values are echoed.  
However, in IE, they do not.

Here is my scaled down code:

\<?php print\_r($\_POST); ?\>

\<html\>\<head\>\</head\>\<body\>

\<form name=“form1” method=“post” action="\<? echo $PHP\_SELF; ?\>"\>

\<input type=“image” src=“fd-03.jpg” name=“photo” value=“photo-1”\>  
\<input type=“image” src=“fd-04.jpg” name=“photo” value=“photo-2”\>  
\<input type=“image” src=“fd-05.jpg” name=“photo” value=“photo-3”\>

\</body\>\</html\>

The photos do not have to exist to get the same results.  
Is it my code, or my version of I.E. (verison = 7.0.5730.11) or any other explaination?  
Any and all help is appreciated. Thank you in advance.
