I think I'd have two scripts: save_form.cgi and load_message.cgi. You submit your form and it goes to save_form.cgi, which saves the data. save_form.cgi returns a simple page that just says "message saved" or whatever, and has a bit of javascript that changes the right_frame's location to something like "load_message.cgi?id=1234", where 1234 is the recently submitted message's identifier. Then just have load_message.cgi read the thing they just posted, and display it.

I should warn you though, I'm a little sleep deprived from being sick lately, so there's probably easier/better ways to do it. That was just my initial reaction to it

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.


good chemistry is complicated, and a little bit messy -LW
