You need to use a javascript (client side language) if you want to accomplish this without reloading the page.
Something like thike this but you would need to do some more R&D at a javascript form or something cuz I know PHP a lot better than javascript ======================================================================================================================= The functions: <script language="Javascript"> var count; function addForm() { if(!count) { count=0; } writeForm(count); count++; } function writeForm(num) { var link = '<a href="javascript:void(0);" onMouseDown="addForm('+num+');">' } </script> You're link: <a href=\"javascript:void(0);\" onMouseDown=\"addForm();\"> More stuff here... >Really?
