No. I've got a list of items that have been marked as "active". For each item, there is a box for "number of items that have been carried from storage to the pub" and a box for "number of boxes of item that have been carried from storage to the pub". You enter as many items as you wish, now and again saving to protect yourself from time-outs. So multiple items are updated on each post, and the position of the page is random. > I don't think we can solve this one DM. I can think of one way: Stage one: Use the post request to generate a page that is ignored (javascript has void or something for this, doesnt it? HTML has a frame of zero size). You post a request, but your browser does not move. This can be done with links, so why shouldnt it be doable with forms? Stage two: use javascript or something to make a "reload page" call. I just don't know how to do this. Or, rather, I think I can make a button perform an "on activate, reload page" thing. I don't know how to make BoltWire retarget the post request to a zero-width frame.
