corporate_slave Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 hi good day! ive been dealing with this problem since last week. i have 2 php pages, page1.php & page2.php. i am passing a variable from page1 to page2 thru GET method. i use the variable to query to a db and display the result on page2. now that is done. here is my problem now... i want that when the user refresh page2, page2 should submit a form with a new value of the variable so that when it makes a query to the db, new result will be displayed. im trying to avoid the use of a submit button or any link to refresh page2, so that means i wanted this to happen when the user clicks on the Refresh button of the browser or hit F5 on the keyboard. please let me know if this sounds feasible. thanks.

ignace Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 It's feasible, not usable. To accomplish this you would need javascript (key listener) and ajax (to submit the new value to php) Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/165680-how-to-submit-a-form-in-php-when-f5-is-pressed/#findComment-873952 Share on other sites More sharing options...
