Eugene -

Perhaps you could use

<form action="[process-target]" method=post>
<input type=hidden name=mv_todo value=search>
<input type=hidden name=prev_form value=this_form>
.
.
.
</form>

... in this way the values set on this form would be available on the 
search results page, like [value prev_form].
