Store it in a session or cookie.

Session example:

<?php
session_start();

foreach($_POST as $key => $value) {
  $_SESSION['post_vars'][$key] = $value;
}
?>

Very basic example, by no means complete.

You can then access the values using $_SESSION['post_vars']['field name']

<form action="" method='post' onsubmit='return confirm("Sure?")'>
<input type='text' name='fred' value="<?php if($_POST['fred']) { echo $_POST['fred'];} ?>">
<input type='submit' value='submit'>
</form>

another method

Thank you friends..!!

i have done with my work.. i store the values in session after submit..!! its working fine

but is there anyway to hold values of textbox on page refresh..!!! :O

i have list of items and price..

items | price
item1 | texbox (we fill value in it)
item2 | texbox
Add new item button

after clicking on Add new item, a popup window will open and after adding new item, window will close and refresh the parent page....

and this results in showing new item in list but deleting all values which we fill in textbox..!!

i hope you understand what i need..?? :)

waiting for positive reply.. thanks in advance..!! :)
