[PHP-DB] get or post From: Adv. Systems Design (asd_2000 <email protected>)

Hello:

I have a script that gathers user input from 5
different successive screens (i am passing along the
data from previous screens in hidden form elements),
but I am noticing that if you need to go back one
screen, the browser does not show you the form with
your beautiful input but rather a "page expired"
message (depending on browser) asking if you wish to
repost...Needless to say if you make significant
amounts of input you will be pissed if you "lose" it
all if you hit the back button...

Questions: is this due to using a post rather than a
get form action? Will a form GET fix this error? What
are the size limits to a GET method? (I am using some
textareas, so they could get long-ish)...

Any answers much appreciated...

Luis
