I have a webpage, on which the content displayed depends on a parameter passed to or obtained by the webpage. This might be a $_GET variable, a $_SESSION variable or a cookie. I don't mind which is used. (I am open to suggestions as to which is the best method. I think $_SESSION.) When the page is initially displayed, the parameter is unset.

On said page, there is to be a button, which when clicked, will increment the parameter and reload the page. Obviously, the parameter has to have the new value, so the reload causes the page contents to change. This ooperation might be repeated ad-nausem.

Most of the indivual pieces of this (getting the paramter, and having the button reload the page) I can do, but I'm having trouble glueing it all together. I've managed to increment the parameter when the button is pressed, but only by calling an external form tag handler. If I do this, I can't get the page to reload.

By what mechanism, can I have the button increment the parameter and cause the page reload?

I hope this make sense; the old grey matter is addled today!

Thanks in advance.
Martin
