FW: [PHP] Re: Populate input from another form

Are both forms on the same page? 
This is confusing because if you're populating one field with POST data and
both forms are on the same page, why wouldn't you just populate both fields
with the POST data?
Please provide more details or some actual code...

can't a form within a form either, unless ... I float a div??.
