Hi- I'm in a situation where I'm required to deal with a hidden form. The background details are exhausting, but the gist is: one form is auto-generated and lacks proper formatting. It was part of an open source package that DID NOT allow templating. So to keep using the application engine, but provide formatting, I created a CSS class to hide the unformatted form while displaying the formatted form. When submitting data to the database this doesn't seem to cause any issues. It accepts data based on the fieldvalues and ids. But when retrieving data to repopulate the form, what happens is that the hidden form gets the values and the displayed form does not. http://nahic.ucsf.edu/phpESP/survey.php login= Wisconsin Basically, if you complete the required field (state), fill out some random data, hit save, then select "resume" from the info page provided. You'll get back an empty form. But if you look at the code you'll see that the hidden form has the values. So I have a few questions: 1) Is there anyway to echo data from one field to the next, especially if the field (name or id) are exactly the same?? (i.e. field=state value=Wisconsin; if the field state is then repeated somewhere else on the page, can the value, Wisconsin, also be automatically repeated. 2) If yes, to the above can PHP do this and how? or is this something requiring Javascript or some other coding. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
