This should be fairly standard. Filling out a form and using a
recursive call and if/then, to bring the variables around to a case
switch for routing to desired pages according to form input data.
if 'completed = y
(
switch
case
get to go here
case
get go there
)
else
(
post to /this page
<form>
submit
)
This draft does work but I don't like the visible url variables.
Of course in addition we have all the fields passed by the form post
that were used as required on switch case and receiving pages... Now
we need to REQUEST every one. That's fine for the sake of the
security but now it's beneficial to get into arrays, etc. to keep
script shorter and easier to maintain. More learning. Always good.
4.1 is pushing me. :-)
The solutions look more involved than my poor coding has been til now.
We need to put more things into function form maybe, instead of
passing between separate pages.
I'm probably still out in left field with a lot of this *visualizing*
but it's coming. And always good to talk it out.
Can you tell me if it's possible to run 4.03 and 4.1 *both* on the
same machine? I'm thinking the old script would be php3 and the new
stuff php4. Is that something that could be done until the old
scripts are upgraded?
