Load same page, new values

[run_GMoney]

Forgive me for this, it might be pretty easy. In my 6 months of PHP work I haven't come across this yet, but I know it's possible. I want to submit some values to a database using a text box, and then "refresh" the page with the values being displayed. I know I've seen examples with PHP_SELF as the action or the method for a form but the manual wasn't exactly helpful with this. So how do you accomplish something like this? Thanks

Hi,

have you tried with javascript?
just do "history.back()"...

<?php
if(isSet($submitted)){
// insert into db, get the id of the inserted record
// run a sql to get the values of the record
// eg get $row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
// $f_name = $row['f_name'];
}else{
$f_name = "";
// do for the rest of the fields
}

?>
<form name="test_form" action="<?php echo("$PHP_SELF")?>" method="post">
<input type="text" value="<?php print($f_name); ?>" name="f_name">
<input type="hidden" value="yes" name="submitted">
<input type="submit">
</form>

Thanks Kevin, that looks about like what I'm looking for. I'll put that in to practice. Thanks again
