Honestly yes, it does :( Cant't you draw a sort of diagram? Besides, I
will probably also need to know how data is modelled (that is, what your
tables look like) to give you meaningful advice.

sorry maybe I did explain it not good enough.
The problem is that if a user has entered data in form 2 goes back to form 1
and forward to form 2 again, the data he entered once in form 2 is lost. And
I do not find a way how the get the data out of form 2 because the back
button is placed in form 3 (same site as form2 ) to allow a different action
since we have to link to another site then in form 2.
sounds confusing? I know but I hope I explained it ok

Okay, this means Form 1 can be entered from two directions:
1) the usual sequence (that is, the way users usually get to it)
2) getting back from Form 2
If you place a button on Form2 saying "go back to form 1" when your user
presses it just post your current data back to the script of form1.
*PLUS* you add a hidden field called *FLAGBACK* (or whatever you want to
call it like.
when the script that prepares form1 is called it must check for
*FLAGBACK* being present. If not, it will do the same old stuff, if yes
you just write a new branch that will put the data back into form 1. Easy.
*BUT* all this will never protect your user in case he just presses
*back* on his browser. Make sure this is well explained on the page.

[PHP] transporting variable via post to another site
Hi there, I do have a multisite form. There are several fields on page 1 and several on page 2. Everything works fine exept of error handling. Which means if a user wants to go back from step 2 to one and has already filled in some data in site 2 he will loose this data for sure. It is not possible to transport the data via get anymor because the text is way to long. So how could this be done with post? I tryed to include a hidden text field, but since this must be another form (action links to page 1) I can't get the value of the entered data. Has anybody a good idea, or even experiance in this?
