I have a page with several input forms. If the fields are not set or are set incorrectly, a similar (but different) page will open with the same fields, but displaying an error message and an asterisk next to the first incorrect field. Is there a way I can keep all the values the way the user entered them before going to the error page? I tried making an array and when it checks the fields, it stores all the values in the array. And the error page prints the values in the fields, but it doesnt work. Its looks like this: <!-- processesform.php3 --> ... include('variables.php3'); // $oldfields is in variables.php3 $oldfields[0] = $f_name; $oldfields[1] = $l_name; $oldfields[2] = $email; $oldfields[3] = $organization; $oldfields[4] = $street; $oldfields[5] = $city; $oldfields[6] = $state; $oldfields[7] = $zip; $oldfields[8] = $country; $oldfields[9] = $h_phone; $oldfields[10] = $b_phone; // Check if all fields are in correct form. // If they are not, go to errorform.php3 ... <!-- errorform.php3 --> ... include('variables.php3'); ... echo "<td><input type=\"text\" value=$oldfields[$i] name='$value'></td></tr>\n"; $i is set, but the fields still remain empty. Any help???? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Photos - 35mm Quality Prints, Now Get 15 Free! http://photos.yahoo.com/
