back link loses data

soupa

I tried creating a back link to the previous page.
echo "<a href=\">Back to Listing</a>;

Hitting the back button works fine. But the back link created from the previous page reference doesn't work. The previous page is created dynamically from a form.

Any help is appreciated.

fixed by registering/unregistering variables.

u can't execute php like a cgi script....

do this:


<a href="<?=$HTTP_REFERER?>">Go Back</a>


<a href="<?php echo $HTTP_REFERER; ?>">Go Back</a>

That was a SSI not part of a php script.
I wasn't concern with the link working, the back link did work.
But the data was no longer there, using the back button the data was there. I fixed this by registering and unregistering a few variables to same variable values, Thanks
