Hi,
it this case you do not need to use sessions to
recognize if you are entering from form or you should
to display form in your code...
I don't exactly remember the new name of
$REQUEST_METHOD variable (since 4.11??) version of
PHP, but this example shows you (variable names from
v. 4.04) how to do this:
if($REQUEST_METHOD == "POST")
{
// entry submitted from your form
// display your results
} else {
// display your form
}
