now I want to know all the images the user draged it before I can go to any other page . for knowing which picture the user dragded I put a textarea feild that displys the name of the image in it.
the problem is each new drag will make a new post and therefore I lose all the info. from any previous POSTs.
I hope that I explained my problem clearly.
thank you.

I didn't read all of your code but my suggestion to your question would be to use mysql or some db to make records of each post, and then you'll have the post history available. Hope this helps.

I don't read all the code but...
I think you can use a database to hold the values or use session variables to store it.
Maybe you don't need to send the form every time an image is dragged. You could use a function to append the name of the images to the textarea or a hidden field, or use a javascript array (then asign its value to the text area like "whatever.mytextarea.value=images[]").

If you append the images name to the text area or a hidden field separate the values with some character (,), so when you post the values you can use explode in php

hope it helps

first of all your error is by design. i did not read your code i just read your own problems description quoted above, because your problem is not code related and you should study the forums rules first not to run into any problems: just post the related code! no one will even read that, anyway.

when each drag-drop creates a form submission (new post) just ensure all other data is passed within that operation. you can use hidden form fields for that (<input type="hidden" [...] />).
