Dragen Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 how can I check the name of a submitted form? I have several links using the get methos, but also a form using get and I want to be able to check if GET is set and it's been set by the form. I would usually use hidden inputs, but they obviously don't work for get forms.

Dragen Posted June 19, 2007 Author Share Posted June 19, 2007 If I use hidden inputs with get method it prints them out in the url, which I don't want. I want to be able to check the form without the user seeing the hidden input or whatever I'm using to verify the form.

soycharliente Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Maybe something like isset() will work. Sidenote: Have you tried using POST? Not much info given so I can't really suggest it.

Dragen Posted June 20, 2007 Author Share Posted June 20, 2007 Sidenote: Have you tried using POST? Not much info given so I can't really suggest it. I'm choosing not to use post as it's for a search feature and I want them to be able to do things such as bookmarking the search results. why use get uve already used hidden??? I was just testing hidden inputs with get to see what would happen. And I'm not really wanting to use sessions either. What I'm doing at the moment is using a get variable which works, but isn't preffered. I guess it'll do. Thanks for all the replies!
