[snip] NOW: The question arises: where does the browser store this info, and can I get it back from there on the page that got called via the href html? I would like to avoid some rather unnecessary server side selects to retrieve the previous page. [/snip]
The browser really doesn't store the information. The only, truly, safe and consistent (read: between different browsers) way to do this is to commit the information to a database or file and use a cookie variable or session variable to ID the user so that a query can be issued against the data for retrieval. So your wish for a client-side solution may not be granted, unless you want to commit each and every variable to a session. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
