RE: [PHP] Passwords?

This link <a href="javascript:history.go(-1)">Back</a> will work on javascript enabled machines... the truly failsafe way is to stuff their data in a session or in the database and pass an id back to the original script. You can also make your form to fill out a seperate file, which your first script includes, and if there is a data error just include it in the second script and make sure all the your form fields have something like <input type="text" name="password" value="$password"> --- Toolshed Computer Productions - Professional PHP Hosting Hosting - Dedicated Servers - Design - Programming http://www.toolshed51.com -----Original Message----- From: Jason Caldwell [mailto:jason@thinkingman.org] Sent: Tuesday, May 22, 2001 3:28 PM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] Passwords? I have some field error checking going on ... and when a user (say) doesn't fill in a field correctly, my error page comes up telling them. They then must click on their browsers <back> button and make the changes. Now -- I have a password field, and when they click back, they are forced to re-enter their password -- this is annoying. My questions are: 1. Is there a way to make this stop happening? 2. Instead of the user clicking on their browsers <back> button, can I add a URL that provides the same functionality -- that will work in IE and Netscape?
