Those were all good suggestions on how to use variables in the form, but what if we want to pass variables through the form. For example we have a variable that is important before we call the form - then we call phpmyedit but the variable is not part of the actual database record being updated. Then we call a trigger and the original variable is needed (in my case to add a record to a second table.) For now I have sometimes created dummy fields in the first updated record just to have info to pass to the trigger, but there has to be a more efficient way.

what is use is
$opts['fdd']['id']['something_dummy'] = 'your variable';
where 'id' is a valid and always active column, 'something_dummy' is a string that is not a valid phpMyEdit option.
in a trigger it is reachable via $this->fdd['id']['something_dummy'];
veeeeeery nasty, but works
