re-POSTing variables
Posted: Wed Jan 28, 2004 6:37 pm
man, serious headfog this afternoon.
I have a form. When this form is submitted, it goes to another page to process the results. The problem is, the form is sometimes auto-submitted by the changing of a pulldown element. I can detect when the submission has happened this way, of course, and immediately redirect the user back to the original form, as it should be, BUT.
But I can't then send back all the form info that it needs to complete itself again with the previous values. I could of course do this by converting all my Post vars to Get, but I really want to avoid that. Is there a way to re-post all of my variables back to the other page?
The only idea I've had so far is ANOTHER form set to post on the update page, set to autosubmit back to the original page. But that doesn't sound so appealing to me, really.
