Passing Data w/ Templates and Forms

Hi

I am using Smarty to create a template.  In the template, there is a form.  I perform various validations using Javascript, but there are certain validations which must be performed on the server-side.  I currently have user.php and  user.tpl pages along with a userProcess.php form which simply handles the server-side validation.  My question is, what is the best way to pass data back from the userProcess.php form back to the template, user.tpl?  For example, if I wanted to validate that if a new user signing into my website has previously registered, how can I send the results back to the user.tpl page?...Is the best method to pass values through the url? 

Also, if I do this, then won't it be difficult to preserve the values that were inputted into the form so that the user does not have to re-enter them?

Thanks in advance,

J
