Hi there,

I am trying to redirect a user back to a html form if a validation 
failes. The form shoult then hold all entered values. So far I did this 
over $_GET, but there is a 100 Character limitation. How could I do this 
while keeping all characters?

Thank you for any hint,

Merlin

    

Change the form to post

Thanks,

This is not so easy. I am doing some checking with php on the values and 
if one failes php returns via GET to the form with the help of header 
location:

       $parameter =  "&demo=this";
       HEADER("Location:/test.html?error=1".$parameter);
       exit;

I would need to change way to many things in order to simply change to post.

Isn't there another way?
