I would assume that when you bring up your form to be edited you would query your database to pull up the current information and then: 1 - echo those values out in your form fields OR 2 - Put the values into hidden form fields If you use #2 then when you do your update you can just check to see if any form objects are left blank...if they are blank use your hidden values...if they aren't blank use the form values. f you use #1 then you just update using all the form values.
