Here's the main index page:
<html>
<body>
<form action="action.php" method="post">
Name: <input type="text" name="fname">
Age: <input type="text" name="age">
<input type="submit" name="mybutton" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
Here's the action page:
<?php
$mycar='';
echo "$mycar";
?>
I left the variable $mycar empty because i'm trying to assign it's value as my forms name (fname).
How do I do this?
I'm so confused!
$mycar = $_post['fname'];
echo $mycar;
@klemme,
Thanks for your help.
You're awesome. :-)
To expand a little on what klemme mentioned, because your form is set to "post" method, all the form fields can be collected in action.php with $_POST['field_name']
If the method was set to "get" you could collect the fields with $_GET['field_name'] and these variables will also be in the URL (added to the end of action.php).
Please mark this as solved, it still shows as an open thread in forum, thanx.
