keeping data in cells

:) here's what i'm using (hope this is what u asked 4) :
<form method="post" action="some.php" name="name">

you should echo your variables in input fields like
<input type="text" name="some_name" value="<?php echo $some_name ?>">

that didn`t work :(

Can you please post your code ?So than we can implement in it...

i have 5 fields named field1 field2 ....
can u write the code exactly so i can use it very easy ?! i`m a beginner sorry if i give u head-aches :)
because i didn`t understand the code u wrote ... just tried this :
value="<?php echo $sa ?>" and nothing ..:(

$field1 = $_POST['field1'] ;
<input type="text" name="field1" value="<?php echo $field1 ?>">

        The logic in here is that ; when you post the page all of the inputs will be send to post array with their names and you can reffer them by thier names like ; $_POST['type_input_name_here'] ;
      May be it might help you to understand it better if you first try to test it with a string instead of variable like ;
    <input type="text" name="field1" value="Field 1 value goes here">
    The statment above will write Field1 value goes here text inside the inputbox if you test it.
     
    So that means we can dynamically print our variable in there as i wrote above...

the inputs are already defined like u said ... the problem is that that echo doesn/t work

If you send your code it would be easier to debug, but generally the form should look like that ;
##################some.php#################### <<< The file name that you should save as..
<form action="some.php" method="post">
<input type="text" name="field1" value="<?php echo $_POST['field1'] ?>">
<input type="submit" value="send">
</form>

    In first time that you call page ,there wont be any values inside field1 as we know, whenever you type something in field1 and click submit it should echo the value...

##################some.php#################### <<< The file name that you should save as..
  From the line above i mean your file name should be some.php

milionnzaru: The code I posted runs.  You can see it in action here: http://www.laprbass.com/RAY_post.php

What language are you using in your action script?  Is it PHP?  Please post the action script.

If the echo() command does not work, there is something seriously wrong with your installation of PHP!!
