[Resolved] Problems with anchors and form data

[Cailean]

I have a form (method=post) that, once submitted, produces the form and the results on the same page so that the user can change the data they've entered. Because the results output is quite large, I added anchor links in various places to help the user navigate the page.

PROBLEM: Once the user clicks an anchor link, the '#link' is appended to the URL which isn't a problem unless you, for some reason, refresh the page - all the POST data is gone. Is there a solution to this? Am I just being picky?

Hmm, that's one I've never encountered or thought about.

My first inclination would be to split the "results" across multiple pages; but you'd still need to stick 'em (the variables, that is) someplace for holding in the meantime.

Doesn't seem to be doing it anymore... might have been a browser bug on the machine I ws on at the time.
