What you won't get here is the information entered into the form unless you use Javascript to move the data to the other part of the page. Now if the data was only there to determine which table to show then you could use this or a similar, technique. I think a simpler method would be to learn a little Javascript and create DIV's that contain the tables that you want to hide and show and have them occupy the same location on the page. Then set the visible property of them depending on the value in the form. It's only a few lines of code and would be much faster and look cleaner then doing a re-load of the page to a new anchor.

This will reload the page and direct it to the layer/table the user selected melih > > From: Stuart Felenstein <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: 2003/06/25 Wed PM 12:33:49 EDT > To: PHP List <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: [PHP-WIN] OT[slightly] Tables and layers > > I'm sure this is possible but not sure where to look to learn.
