Hello Gunawan
On your first comment, im not sure what you were referring to when you said
it is a js problem
on your second comment, i am talking about the user entered data. data
submitted by the first submit button will always be predefined by means of
the user using a selection box, the data im concerned with checking is the
input boxes he will be seeing. and this wont necessarily be username/pass.
and im trying to do this in php if at all possible.
on your next comment, (6) i am talking about after i vertified the validity
of the user typed/entered data, i will enter that into my db
next comment - i knew this would be hard to describe, but i'll try again.
this is to be done all on one page. and ive tried using something like:
value=\"$_POST['name']\"
but i am having problems keeping the initial drop down at the selected
choice, so whenever either submit button is pressed and the post goes to php
self, the drop down is refreshed back to its starting value, which is NULL
I hope that helps define my problem a little more

hmm i don't get it by reading at the first. i think in the 2nd page u
should try to make <input type=hidden name=user value=landa>
this input contain what previous data enter...
foreach($_POST as $nm=>$val){
$txt.="<input type=hidden name=$nm value=$val>";
}
echo $txt;
