What are you trying to achieve? If it's something like a FORM where the visitor fill up a lot of fields and after a mistake is detected he is asked to go back and correct the problem, then what you're trying to do is worthless. For that, what you should do is pass the filled fields values using HIDDEN text fields back and forth. If this is not the case, please tell everyone what you are trying to accomplish so we can help you. Maybe a little piece of code wouldn't be so bad. Cheers, Cesar
