Re: Can I show input data whrn back to the Input Form?

Relying on the back button isn't good... the data may or may not be there when they return. However, you CAN provide them with a button "change", and POST the data to a form... where they modify their data, the form needs to echo the POST data back into the form, eg: <FORM action="validate.php" action="POST"> <INPUT type="text" name="username" value="<?=$_POST['username']?>"> </FORM> selects, checkboxes and some other things are a little more tricky, but you'll figure them out... search the archives too... it's been asked 1000's of times :) Justin French on 29/08/02 7:02 PM, Hakkan Lui (hakkan@vtc.edu.hk) wrote: > Dear all, > > In my php program, when user click "submit" on a form, it comes to a > confirmation page, showing what the user entered in the form. > > If the user find want to re-enter the information, he press "Back" on the > browser.
