Then when the person returns, generate the page as usual, plugging in any stored values you have for him/her. You'll need a way to uniquely identify the user, so that id can be linked back to the right set of stored data. Sessions are perfect for this <http://php.net/session>. Or, if you had no concern about the implications of client-side storage, you could use JS to store the values directly in a cookie. -- CC -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
