You can add the field data to a session: $field1 = $_GET['field1']; $_SESSION['field1'] = $field1; // then to get them back again if(isset($_SESSION['field1'])) { $field1 = $_SESSION['field1']; } --Paul All Email originating from UWC is covered by disclaimer http://www.uwc.ac.za/portal/uwc2006/content/mail_disclaimer/index.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
