I have a form and its action is set to itself. So after a user fills out some fields and submits, I can obtain the variables using $\_POST. But what if this page is used multiple times, like when a log in fails over and over. Will the $\_POST variables still retain their values after the page reloads for the 3rd, 4rth, etc… time?
