keep pre-populated hidden field value

keep pre-populated hidden field value

have three pages; 1st page has 4 products with paypal forms to submit. That redirects to a checkout form page where the user fills out their information. That page has hidden fields from the paypal form on the 1st page. When validation is done to the checkout form, the hidden fields values are removed. I want to keep the hidden field values to pass on to a confirmation page before the order is submitted.

Can I see a copy of the page? There are "Validated Fields" bindings you can use to get the value of a field after validation. I'd like to see your page to see how it is currently populated to suggest the right code to use to accomplish your needs. I'll want the page with the hidden fields and the page that does the validation if they are on different pages because both might need small updates.

Ray,
I have attached the two pages. What I was trying to do is get the information to the confirm_NFC page and then submit the order to paypal.
I have used ecart with dynamic items on this website and that works fine, but the owner wants a separate page for a different tour that she doesn't want combined with the current shopping cart.
I am thinking about doing a static cart for this situation.

On the confirm page on line 7 change:

php:
$WAFV_Redirect = "checkout_NFC.php";


to:

php:
$WAFV_Redirect = "checkout_NFC.php?invalid";



Then on the checkout page, you can populate the values conditionally from the failed validation when necessary. So the hidden value:

php:
<input name="item_name" type="hidden" value="<?php echo((isset($_POST["item_name"]))?$_POST["item_name"]:""?>" />

$WAFV_Redirect = "checkout_NFC.php?invalid";



becomes:

php:
<input name="item_name" type="hidden" value="<?php echo((isset($_GET["invalid"]))?ValidatedField("confirmNFC_392","item_name"):$_POST["item_name"]) ?>" />

$WAFV_Redirect = "checkout_NFC.php?invalid";
