Preserve Data When Using Alert

[timstsprymsn]

:confused; Hi can anyone tell me if there is a way to retain user input on a
form when using a javascript to execute the window.alert method? I have an
input form with a few radio buttons, and a single textarea. When the user
clicks the submit button I am displaying an alert box using javascript when I
detect any errors. However, my screen is a framed screen with the top frame
being static, and the bottom frame containing the input fields. When the
javascript executes to display the alert, it blows away any information the
user has entered in the bottom frame eventhough I have preservedata set to yes.

Any help would be appreciated!

Well, nothing like answering your own question. Here is the answer for anyone
that is looking for the same information: You simply need to use the
history.back() method of the window object. So, the code would look like this:

{
history.back()
}
