[snip] Not really, test for emptiness of the variable (isset())...if it is set display it, if not show it as blank.
HTH! Jay [/snip] You'll have to forgive me as I am unfamiliar with PHP, still a beginner!! So if I have a page (page1.php) which is my first page with a form. When I click a normal link within this form it takes me to page2.php. This page has another smaller form. When the submit button in this form is clicked it updates the database with no problems and displays a link - linking back to page1.php (I have decided not to use redirect). How do load the page and fill all the text boxes with the information that was already written - because this information (from page1.php, first form) has not been saved to the database yet. You probably knew this anyway - but I had to go through that process to satisfy myself!!
