Hi Bob!
I'v create a multipage form with 2 step.
In the first step i write the Cognome (surname)Mrtins:


When i go in the 2nd step how to have in auto the previous value of Cognome(surname)?

HI pasqualedi,

You need to set the value from the $posted array

<input name='cognome2' . . . value='<?php echo $posted['cognome']; ?>' />

Hi Bob!Thanks very much.
For the textbox type it's ok, working..
But if i've a dropdown selection?
Thi is my code for the dropdown:

<div class="form_item">
      <div class="form_element cf_dropdown">
        <select class="cf_inputbox" id="tipocontratto" size="1" title=""  name="tipocontratto">
          <option value="" selected="selected">Scegli</option>
          <option value="Determinato">Determinato</option>
          <option value="Indeterminato">Indeterminato</option>
        </select>
      </div>
      <div class="cfclear"></div>
    </div>

Hi pasqualedi,

That needs some PHP

<?php
$tipo_options = array('Determinato' => 'Determinato', 'Indeterminato' => 'Indeterminato');
$selected = "";
$options_array = array();
foreach ( $tipo_options as $k => $v ) {
  if ( $k == $posted['tipo'] ) {
    $selected = "selected='selected'";
  }
  $options_array[] = "<option value='$k' $selected >$v</option>";
}

?>
<div class="form_item">
      <div class="form_element cf_dropdown">
        <select class="cf_inputbox" id="tipocontratto" size="1" title=""  name="tipocontratto">
          <option value="">Scegli</option>
<?php
echo implode(' ', $options_array);
?>
        </select>
      </div>
      <div class="cfclear"></div>

Hi Bob.Thanks.
I've paste your code in my 2nd step page, but not working.
Thi is my code:

<td bgcolor="#c6d7ff"><div class="form_item">
      <div class="form_element cf_dropdown">
        <select class="cf_inputbox" id="tipocontratto" size="1" title="" name="tipocontratto">
          <option value="" selected="selected">Scegli</option>
          <option value="Determinato" >Determinato</option>
          <option value="Indeterminato">Indeterminato</option>
        </select>
        <?php
$tipocontratto_options = array('Determinato' => 'Determinato', 'Indeterminato' => 'Indeterminato');
$selected = "";
$options_array = array();
foreach ( $tipocontratto_options as $k => $v ) {
if ( $k == $posted['tipocontratto'] ) {
$selected = "selected='selected'";
}
$options_array[] = "<option value='$k' $selected >$v</option>";
}

?>
      </div>
      <div class="cfclear"></div>
    </div></td>

Hi pasqualedi,

That isn't my code - it got changed somewhere. Please use all of it including the later part which actually creates the options.

Bob

Ok Bob!
I've paste your original code, but don't working.

<?php
$tipo_options = array('Determinato' => 'Determinato', 'Indeterminato' => 'Indeterminato');
$selected = "";
$options_array = array();
foreach ( $tipo_options as $k => $v ) {
  if ( $k == $posted['tipo'] ) {
    $selected = "selected='selected'";
  }
  $options_array[] = "<option value='$k' $selected >$v</option>";
}

?>
<div class="form_item">
      <div class="form_element cf_dropdown">
        <select class="cf_inputbox" id="tipocontratto" size="1" title=""  name="tipocontratto">
          <option value="">Scegli</option>
<?php
echo implode(' ', $options_array);
?>
        </select>
      </div>
      <div class="cfclear"></div> 

Hi Bob!With this cod working.

<option value="Determinato"<?php if($_POST['tipocontratto']=='Determinato') print 'selected="selected"'; ?> >Determinato</option>
          <option value="Indeterminato"<?php if($_POST['tipocontratto']=='Indeterminato') print 'selected="selected"'; ?>>Indeterminato</option>

Hi pasqualedi,

What doesn't work - it produces a perfectly good drop-down?????
