  <p>Mate, that‘s a <em>really</em> old version of CiviCRM. There are literally hundreds of bugs on that that were fixed years ago. Definitely time you upgraded to 4.4 (there‘s a case to be made to get you all the way to 4.6!) - in my view there‘s little point in attempting to address this issue as an upgrade would likely fix this, a raft of other problems, and give you vital security upgrades, not to mention cracking new features, a faster system, and a slicker interface.</p>
  
  <p>If you‘re interested in having your system upgraded then your sysadmin should be able to help you. If you would rather someone else do it, please contact myself (john@civifirst.com - proud presenter of a presentation called "upgrading your upgrade") or a CiviCRM partner agency, details of which are available on civicrm.org.</p>

  <p>My experience of the events registration page is that it has changed throughout the different versions - please can you tell us which version of Civi you're on? And which platform &amp; version?</p>

Body: <p>On our event registration form, where a user can register someone other than themselves.  When they select 'Yes' to register someone else, a field appears where they can search for the person they want to register.  However, once 'Yes; is selected, the page automatically refreshes in about 3 seconds.  After the page refreshes, the form goes back to the original view as if the user just opened the registration form.  </p>
  
  <p>This is the only field that is causing the page to refresh.</p>

  @username_0,
  
  Mate, that‘s a *really* old version of CiviCRM. There are literally hundreds of bugs on that that were fixed years ago. Definitely time you upgraded to 4.4 (there‘s a case to be made to get you all the way to 4.6!) - in my view there‘s little point in attempting to address this issue as an upgrade would likely fix this, a raft of other problems, and give you vital security upgrades, not to mention cracking new features, a faster system, and a slicker interface.
