Enter Bets Page - After a bet is entered, just have a small confirmation show up on the screen and STAY on the bet entry screen.

This way, people can enter in multiple bets at a time.

i am confused? why would they be staying on the bet entry screen to be able to enter in multiple bets? they can already enter in multiple bets at a time. what does the confirmation screen say? do you want it to confirm things like the green checkmark is doing right now?

Well, right now, it goes nowhere: http://sagestats.com/ss2/bets/createbets

So, it can either go back to the bet entry screen with just a little text box saying "bet entered successfully" or it can go to the the view bets screen, where you can see your bets.

Personally, I'd prefer it to go back to the enter bets screen, because right now, since I'm using the search bar more, I enter my bets in one at a time because in order to enter in multiple bets at a time, I have to use my mouse.

that page is the actual page that saves the bets. right now it is for debugging purposes. I was going to have it redirect to the view bets screen. do you think that it would make more sense to concentrate on fixing it so that you do not have to use the mouse rather than redirecting to the enter bets screen? maybe after the last tab it would go back up to the search box? what about the user who is looking at his bets remembers that he needs to add one clicks enter bet and then searches and enters it and hits enter, now he is looking back at his bets. i just do not feel like that is the correct flow.

for a first time user even, i would think it would be nice to show them the view bets screen after they enter a bet.

Per our discussion earlier, let's have a small box of text show up after someone hits submit, saying "Bet(s) entered successfully. View your bets" (view them is a hyperlink to an anchored part of our Analytics Page"

It should show up above the search bar (and maybe above the date filter we were going to implement?)
