Dear All

I am trying to create a page that has buttons that generate new windows that collect information about a user and on submission then displays that information on the orginal page.

A scheme to collect colour preference would look like;

1. Page1.php
Link to data collection page in new window (data1.php)
2. Data1.php
Contains a HTML form. On clicking the button the form valuesare sent to page1.php where they are displayed as text and data1.php closes.

3. Page1.php
Contains a submission button that sends all this information to a dbase or email etc.

Unfortunatley I am not sure where to start. Would this use session variables or cookies? Would it have to be Javascript? I really would just like some guidance about where to start any help would be appreciated.

Best regards
Philip
