Here's an example to get you started - created 2 files as below, 1.html and
2.php

The important bit is value="<?php echo $_POST['username'];?>

FILE : 1.html

<html>
<form action="2.php" method="post">
<input type="text" name="username" size="40" maxlength="256">
<input type="submit" value="submit">

</form>

</html>


FILE : 2.php

<html>
<form action="2.php" method="post">
Name : <input type="text" name="username" value="<?php echo
$_POST['username'];?>"size="40" maxlength="256">
Address : <input type="text" name="test" size="40" maxlength="256">
<input type="submit" value="submit">

</form>

</html>

Subject:  Preserving form field values between pages/tags


Hi,

I'm building a form page that has 3 tags for different types of fields (i.e.
Personal details, location details, other).  I want to preserve the values
of the filled in fields as the user moves from section/tag to section/tag.
I've tried making each tag a separate page and use the URL to pass values,
as well as put it all on one page and hide fields (which became more trouble
than it was worth!).

Does anyone have a more practical/useful way of preserving field values from
page-to-page... or hiding fields as a user clicks on each tag?

Thanks,

-Nelson
