if (!isset($_POST['guess'])) {
$message = "Welcome to the guessing machine!";
} else if ($_POST['guess'] > $num_to_guess) {
$message = "$_POST[guess] is too big! Try a smaller number.";
} else if ($_POST[guess] < $num_to_guess) {
$message = "$_POST[guess] is too small! Try a larger number.";
} else { // must be equivalent
$message = "Well done!";
}
?>

<h1><?php echo $message; ?></h1>
<form action="<?php echo $_SERVER[PHP_SELF]; ?>" method="POST">
<p><strong>Type your guess here:</strong> <input type="text" name="guess"></p>
