This is sooooo strange...
I changed $in{} to param('')

like this: $in{tax_id} to param('tax_id') since I'm using cgi-lib for the parsing into %in and :standard for the html creating(textfield(-name ...ect.)

So even though $in{tax_id} did contain a value, it did not work. the others all work, but not those three feilds. Changing it to param('') worked!

If they both contain a value, what would make one work and not the other?

I'm very confused by this. I have at least 15 fields in the update form in the profile form, all of them work with the $in{} method. only those few did not work (html_email, aff_url & tax_id) Every other one, worked, just like it should.

Any Guru's out there that can help me understand why that is?
I'd be very thankful!

Thx,
Richard.
