At the moment, the visitor inputs a load of text into the comments box, but if they click send and there's errors in other fields on the page, the comments box goes blank and they have to start all over again ;-( Trying to get it so that the comments box stays complete). Do I have to refer to the field or field name elsewhere in the code please? Getting a bit stuck on this ;-( Any help appreciated.
