the truly failsafe way is to stuff their data in a session or in the
database and pass an id back to the original script.
You can also make your form to fill out a seperate file, which your first
script includes, and if there is a data error just include it in the second
script and make sure all the your form fields have something like <input
type="text" name="password" value="$password">

Subject: [PHP] Passwords?
I have some field error checking going on ... and when a user (say) doesn't
fill in a field correctly, my error page comes up telling them. They then
must click on their browsers <back> button and make the changes.
Now -- I have a password field, and when they click back, they are forced to
re-enter their password -- this is annoying.
My questions are:
1. Is there a way to make this stop happening?
2. Instead of the user clicking on their browsers <back> button, can I add a
URL that provides the same functionality -- that will work in IE and
Netscape?
Thanks
Jason
