Save it into the session as they go through the three pages and only save it into the database at the end. Keep track of a $page variable and increment or decrement based on whether they chose the Next>> or <<Prev button and show the appropriate content for the $page. ---John Holmes... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
