basic html form question

steveinchicago · 05-01-2006, 06:57 PM

I DON'T need a php solution, or anything else, other than an html, asp, or javascript solution to this question.

When a user fills out a form, I need to allow them to go back with the fields they already filled out, STILL HAVING THE DATA THERE, to finish filling out remaining fields that were required, but which they overlooked.
This eliminates them having to start all over again.

Thanks in advance.

You need them to go back when?

I assume you mean after submitting the form, but I am not sure...

If you wanted them to go back when a javascript validation found an error prior to submission, could you not just write the current valid variables back to the forms as .value=whatever? and return false to the submit button so that it does not continue?
