Hi there,
I do have a form where there is also a field with max 2000 characters
the user can put in.
Now before processing the data with php, I do a checkin the script for
certain criterias if something lookes wrong I do redirect him to the
original form with inserting the data he has entered. I do this via GET
e.g.: ?title=test&body=blablub
That works fine with one exception. If the user does enter 2000
characters (or a lot c.) they do get transfered via URL as well and that
is not possible. Firfox for example then simply displays a blank page!!!
It would be fine if he would return with just a few less characters, but
at least display the error message I am providing.
Now, 2 questions:
1) Does anybody know why firefox is shoing a blank page? If the URL does
contain less characters, lets say 100 everything works fine.
2) How could I possibly save his entry? Maybe with the help of a cookie?
But then, I do redirect to the page. So I do send a header. As far as I
know this only once possible?
For example:
setcookie('bla test');
HEADER("Location:".$data[rurl]."?error=".$error.$parameter);
I would rather not like to use the help of a database.
Any ideas?
Regards,
Merlin
