After the first one is validated, store the needed values from the form in a session and then redirect to second script. Verify the setting of the session values in the second script -- if the values are not given, the first form wasn't submitted => redirect to the first one; if they are given, show the (second) form. For more complex tasks you could also have a look at HTML_QuickForm_Controller, a very nice package for splitting forms into pages. But you will need some time to fully understand the concept behind it (at least that was the case for me and the FAQ warns about that, too). HTH, Mark
