i need some php help!?

hey i have these 2 pages

process.php
PHP Code:
<?php
$sport = $_POST['sports'];
$date = date("d/m/y");
$time = date("G:i:s");

$data_1 = "$sport $time $date";

setcookie("cookie",$data_1);

header("location: code.php");
?>

and code.php

PHP Code:
<form name="test" action="process.php" method="post" >

<input type="radio" name="sports" id="01" value="skate" onclick="document.test.submit();" /><label for="01">skateboard</label>
<input type="radio" name="sports" id="02" value="football" onclick="document.test.submit();" /><label for="02">football</label>

</form>

<?php
echo "<u>";
echo $_COOKIE['cookie'];
echo "<u />";

?>

so yeah when you click on one of the radio buttons you see
football 23:09:01 01/07/09

but i want a running text list showing the most recent buttons and times you clicked on it not just once. so it would be like

skate 23:53:35 01/07/09
skate 23:49:11 01/07/09
football 23:09:01 01/07/09

i've tryed using arrays but i cant get it to work so yeh wen a button is clicked it adds it to the running text list
any ideas?

Ah ha! I'll answer it twice.

<html>
<head>
<title>Test Sport List</title>
</head>
<body>

<?php
$sport_list='';

if (isset($_POST['sports'])) {
$sport = $_POST['sports'];
$dts = date("G:i:s d/m/y");
if ($_POST['sport_list']) {
$sport_list = "<li>$sport $dts" . $_POST['sport_list'] . "</li>";
} else {
$sport_list = "<li>$sport $dts</li>";
}
}

?>

<form name="test" action="<?php echo($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); ?>" method="post" >
<input type="hidden" name="sport_list" value="<?php echo($sport_list); ?>">
<input type="radio" name="sports" id="01" value="skate" onclick="document.test.submit();" /><label for="01">skateboard</label>
<input type="radio" name="sports" id="02" value="football" onclick="document.test.submit();" /><label for="02">football</label>
</form>

<ul>
<?php echo($sport_list); ?>
</ul>

</body>
</html>
