Hi there



Just wondering if there is a better way of do this?

I have a form that has one of those PHP anti-spam random images. If the user
enters the incorrect

number when they submit they get a error message and have to click back to
re-enter it, the

trouble is when they do all the fields on the form are now blank so they
have to type it all in again.



So I was thinking, when the user submits the form it sets a cookie with all
the forms info,

it runs the tests to make sure the number is correct, if correct then
process the form and deletes the cookie.

If it's not correct when the user clicks back put some code at the bottom of
the form page that tests

that the cookie is set and if there reads the info in and using JavaScript
fills the form in.



This is the only way I can think of, but it there a better way?



Thanks



Brian
