first post on the perl / php forum so go easy :)
i have a problem, somewhat outlined in the html forum here.
[webmasterworld.com ]
when i back button from step2 to step1 the hidden field i am using to hold some info goes walkies.
i believe this is because i am using CGI::Persistent which uses a hidden field to hold a persistent key, linking to the held stuff on the server.
it seems the problem arises when the user back buttons, and instead of simply using the browser cache and displaying step1 as was (with the onload etc), it reinvokes the cgi script; thus creating a new id, and losing all the data from 2 seconds ago.. :(
can anyone tell me why this may be?
or mbe its an apache setting.. our techies are useless. :(
thanks in advance... i hope :)
