hi,
PHP is serverside and thus you MUST refresh the page on the client's side
to send the "update request" over to the server ... using frames cound make
it possible to have a single small frame "just for this purpose" refreshing
... I think you should use JavaScript it's less painfull for that purpose...
Chers, Arne
