I want to pass a variable data $id to 3 different forms back to back....but if i pass it normally through url then it changes frequently during form posts, uploads and pagination..........any idea guys??

So when they submit form 1 and your controller processes it, stick the ID in a hidden field on form 2 so it will pass to form 3. Or use sessions or something.

I've used sessions....i don't know if it's a best practice but it's working fine for now..
Anyways thanks for the reply
