If you submit the form and validate it, your post data will still be in the form, while the page has been refreshed (there has been a round trip to the server upon form submission).

I did never use flashmessenger, but I do not see why it would not display its message when the user submits the form and thus refreshes the page?

Hi,

In my project, the user now and then has to submit a form. Sometimes, there is an error with processing this form (e.g. the data couldn't be inserted into the database).

To communicate this to the user, I use the FlashMessenger action helper. However, the FlashMessenger won't display its messages until the next page load, which means I'll either have to refresh the page and lose the POST data, or preserve the POST data so I can populate the form with whatever the user just submitted, but lose the error message.

What would be the recommended way to have both?

Thanks,
