Subject: [PHP-DB] Forms carrying values.
Hi list, hope someone can help me here.
I have content management system I have designed. I am still learning php so
help here would be appreciated.
The user logs into the system, and we carry there user name over the pages
using a link to each page with the value of their name carried over as
follows: ../index.php?name=<?echo("$name")?>
This works fine for the whole site, except when a user makes changes to a
entry. Once they submit adding a new entry or modifying an existing one, the
value of : ../index.php?name=My Name ends up being ./index.php?name=My
It deletes the end of the name of the url, so that when the user clicks the
link it does not really know who they are.
I have used a hidden field to carry the value of the name over the pages,
but it does not work on forms.
I hope this makes some sort of sense.
If anyone knows of a workaround.
Thanks
Barry
