Question

I need to be able to print text into a form field from an <‘a’> link.

Basically I have a list of job postings on one page, and an ‘apply’ link for each one. What then will happen is it’ll bring up a form with the “Job Chosen” field already filled out with the “Job Title” from the previous page.

Something like

<a href="applyform.php?submitted[job_chosen]=job_title">Apply For Position</a>

I know that that is not right at all, just for explanation reasons.

Here comes the there-is-a-module-for-that answer 😀

The first 2 modules are more mature:
