Pass ID from one page to another PHP (k)

Trying to get a handle on this ID passing. I did this in class, but
can't seem to have it happen in real life.

Trying to pass an ID from this page:
http://www.redheadcompanies.com/Login/work_byclient.php

<a href="work_results.php?ID_CLIENT=<?php echo
$row_CLIENTS['ID_CLIENT']; ?>">
<img src="<?php echo $row_CLIENTS['TITLE_THUMB']; ?>" alt="<?php echo
$row_CLIENTS['CLIENT']; ?>" name="Image11" border="0" id="Image1"
title=""></a>

To this page:
http://www.redheadcompanies.com/Login/work_results.php

I have the RecordSet filled in like this:
TITLE_ART = URL Parameter ID_CLIENT

The graphic I am trying to change has this attached to it:
<img src="<?php echo $row_CLIENTS['TITLE_ART']; ?>" alt="<?php echo
$row_CLIENTS['CLIENT']; ?>" title="">

It is not changing in relationship to the client chosen on the other page.

Any help would be appreciated.

Somebody out there has had to have done this. It can't be that tough. I
have tried every combination I can think of, nothing is working.

I think I have this page set up correctly:
http://www.redheadcompanies.com/Login/work_byclient.php

It's the results page that I can't harness:
http://www.redheadcompanies.com/Login/work_results.php

I want the graphic at the top of this page that reads "Chesapeake Bay
Foundation" to change to correspond to the item selected on the
work_byclient.php page.

Anybody? Bueller? Bueller?

$_GET['ID_CLIENT'] would be correct.

Actually the above was just an example for what he did, no PHP code.

What I am looking for is a tutorial on how to do this.

The button graphics and headline graphics are contained in the same table
within the database.

I want to learn how to press the button graphic on the one page and have the
headline on the results page change to correspond to the button I pressed.

I have tried every combination I could think of yesterday. 8 hours of trial
and error. I cannot get it working.

Anybody?

Okay, figured out how to pass the variable properly. Was really a lightbulb
over the head moment.

Need a URL Parameter. Thought this was supposed to be the same as the name
in the table. Ended up calling mine "passID". I know that it is passing
because I can see the title alt tag changes. But the title art doesn't

Any help?

Figured it out. My database image path was incorrect.
