Hey guys, i'm finishing up a site here and was just wondering, i've been
reading online and it seems that some people strongly suggest against having
php forms post back to themselves for error displaying and correction and
processing. I can sort of understand why, but then again it seems that a lot
of people are using it and recommend it, w3c included. Does anybody have any
comments/opinions they can share that would help me shed some light on this
matter? Self posting would make my life easier, but i have a solution that
separates processing from the actual form page, except that there's a bit of
code involved to redisplay the form with values filled in, error messages
displayed etc. Any thoughts, comments, articles on the topic?
 
THX, D!J!X!
