can i suggest styling anchor tags to look like buttons? Lee's solution, while perfectly acceptable, will not work when javascript is disabled.

You could have a form on the page (formA) that contains just the button to pageA. Same thing with the button that takes you to pageB - it has it's own form called formB.

Now you can use method="get" and use the action of each form to do the navigation. The main page form doesn't get affected by this at all (so you can use the action in that for as normal).

Any luck with this one, playerx? If you found the posts useful, let those that attempted to help you (using their own time and resources for free) know your appreciation.

It would also be nice if you could summarize the solution that worked for you and post it as a followup (for the next person researching the same problem).

Cheers,
Jeff
