Full Version: Saving Choices from a previous page into a Form

HI,

I am wondering how I would go about saving a choice from a previous HTML page to a form on the next page. Bascially what I have is a list of websites a client can choose from on one page. They can select any design they want. After they select the design I want them to be taken to a "order form" page. Depending on the design that they choose, I want it to already be inputted in a field in the form on the next page. And maybe even show a small thumbnail image of their selection. I hope this makes sense. Please let me know if anyone can help!

Thanks!!

Let the first page be a form that submits the website choice to the second page. Then let the second page print out both the thumbnail and the actual order form. These days PHP is a popular server-side scripting language used for things like this, but there are others too. It all depends on what you want to learn and what your webhost offers. http://www.php.net/manual/en/getting-started.php
