tedd, plz no personal mail, i like better to discuss things in the forum and thus hear other meanings and experiences.

Your solution was very simple and worked very well.

tx, i always try to keep things logical and as simple as possible ;) this is just a quick example to show how to bring info gathered by js back to the php application (and possibly store it in a session for later use). Using the query string is just one way and can also be used in combination with loading some css.php or some such. Setting a cookie may be another option. Happy coding ;)

Out of curiosity, can you guarantee the Javascript redirect will always occur before the meta redirect when Javascript is enabled? Otherwise you have a race condition. Cheers, Rob.

Rob: That's a good point -- even if a delay was added it's not certain that it wouldn't experience a race issue. And the longer the delay, the more problems you have with the user experience. Perhaps a token scheme, like prohibiting duplicate from submissions, might work. tedd -- ------- http://sperling.com http://ancientstones.com http://earthstones.com
