Hi there..

I got a problem with this:

in my site I have several divs wich are "walked through" when a form is filled.

In div 1 I let the user select a data wich is provided from a MySql database.
If a data is booked it's not available

In the final step I want to check if the selected date is still available
(maybe someone was faster so it won't be available)

I can check this in php but then I need to reload the full page and all filled in items
in the form will be cleared.

I'm wondering if there is a way to check this and not reload the page OR do I need
to "transport" all variables to the check page?
and how do I transport a file that's allready selected for uploading?.

I can think of a couple ways you can do this.

1. Possibly the easiest way would be to use Javascript's AJAX to send a request to a page that can query the database and check availability.

2. Submit the form to the final page and check availability then. You can always store the forms information in a session so the form can be re-populated if you have to go back. And a far as any files that have been uploaded, the saved files name can also be stored in the session so it can be deleted if the users change their mind.

I am sure there are several ways you can go once you understand what you can do.
