So i have a form in the file index.php

Code: Select all

<form method="post" action="index.php">
<div id="name"><input type="text" name="name" size="10" /></div>
<input type="submit" name="submitted" value="Submit"/>
</form>
What i want to do is for every time the submit button is pressed, i can echo the first name that was submitted, and also echo the current name that was submitted.. and so on...

So for example:
Name: dead
hit submit
shows:
dead

name: man
hit submit
shows:
dead
man

I have a counter on my submit button already. I just cant get the inputs that where submitted before to show up.

I think 'old' $_POST data is cleared the moment that you submit the form again so another method of storing the previously entered data is required, perhaps a cookie or session variable
