how to resend data from action to form page?

[prakki79]

Hi,

 

I am newbie to PHP. If any one explain me with a simple example, it would be really great.

 

I have a form page "queue_info.php". After user hits SUBMIT, this page will redirect to an action page "queue_action.php".

from form page data are passed using "$quests=$_POST['quests'];" to this action page.

Now i need to resend this same data back to the form page "queue_info.php" from action page. How to do this? Appreciate your inputs on this.

 

thanks,

prakash

You could do three things. One, send the variables back by appending them to the URL of queue_info.php. For example queue_info.php?id=5&from=user, then inside queue_info.php, you access those variables using $_GET, exactly as you've used $_POST. This means that the user will see all of the variables and their content, which may not be wanted.

 

You could use javascript to submit another form on the queue_action.php page. Submit it to queue_info.php and access using $_POST again.

 

Or the third is using session variables, which will then be accessible on any page in your website..

 

Hope that helps a little..

or you could put the form and the form processing code on the same page.
