I am not sure what you are asking here, but I would say the JavaScript option is probably least desirable. :) Seriously, a form consists of as many form fields of as many different types as you need. Once submitted, it's submitted. There is no "refresh" or anything that takes place. The data is submitted to a resource specified in the "action" attribute of the <form> tag. What you do with it there, as well as what you send back to the client, depends on your needs. Chris Peter wrote:
howdy, I am building a page that relies on a form... what I am unsure of is .. is it better to try and have form fields update them selves, using java script or the like or have the whole page refreshed with out being submitted given there will be other data entered on the page..
