Well that's not actually that helpful. I know I'm a noob and all but...
Well, i've managed to work out a few things, but I'm still stuck.
Ok, here's the thing. I've got the form in PHP. some of the values are pre-populated text fields that use session variables and variables to hold the content. i.e. (PHP is just jotted down as an example..i know there are errors)
snip...
$myMSG = $_SESSION['Book']." ".$_SESSION['Chapter'];
echo "<form...>";
(form stuff...)
echo"<textarea name='message'>$myMSG</textarea>";
etc...
<input type=\"submit\" value=\"Send Message\">
echo "</form>";
I've got some basic error-checking that validates the form. If it fails, It prompts the user to enter the missing/incorrect data. The problem is - when the form reloads, $myMSG is gone.
So is this because my session data is being deleted on the submit? Is there any way I can have the form reload and still keep the value in $myMSG?
thanks in advance!
