Blank fields on form load

Hi there,
I have a form which has 2 text boxes, a combo box and a sub form in it
(which reads from a query. The query reads from the table).
On load, I would like the fields in the text boxes and combo box to be
become blank. If I use the "" or 'null' instruction then this in turn
makes the corresponding field in the sub form blank which in turn makes
the query field blank and the table field blank!
If I then change the combo box option, this is then inputted in the
field in the query that was left blank on the form load, therefore
making the data incorrect.
How can I stop it doing this because, if this happens, it does not
search the database correctly and I am left with false data in my
query?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Many Thanks.

I would appreciate any help with the following problem. I have several different htm pages with (simalar) forms that are processed by the same PHP script. If there is data missing on the form, the script displays an error page (using the header() function) and informs the user to press the browser's "Back" button. The problem is that when the user goes back to the form's htm page, all the fields are blank. I would like all

Hi, all. I'd like to do the following, preferably *without* resorting to JavaScript: I have a long, dynamically-generated form questionnaire. Not all of the form fields are dynamically generated, though. I'd like to capture the NAME of every HTML form field element on the server, even if that element is submitted blank. The trouble is, with, say, radio buttons or checkboxes for example, a *blank* element does not get submitted at all.

Greetings all, I have a database with two tables: docs and edocs. For each record in docs there can be zero to unlimited records in edocs. Both tables have an integer primary key named index. The edocs table also has an integer field docs_index whose value will be the corresponding docs index. Here's a rudimentary layout:

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.
