PHP
- Forms
PHP Forms is the advanced web
form builder that allows you to
create web forms fast and with
minimum of effort. Web forms are
easily integrated into your
website: just insert the php form
code or html form code into your
page.
The PHP $_GET and $_POST variables
are used to retrieve information
from forms, like user input.
PHP Form Handling
The most important thing to
notice when dealing with HTML
forms and PHP is that any form
element in an HTML page will
automatically be available to your
PHP scripts.
Form example:
<html>
<body><form action="welcome.php"
method="post">
Name: <input type="text"
name="name" />
Age: <input type="text"
name="age" />
<input type="submit" />
</form></body>
</html>
|
The example HTML page above
contains two input fields and a
submit button. When the user fills
in this form and click on the
submit button, the form data is
sent to the "welcome.php" file.
The "welcome.php" file looks
like this:
<html>
<body>Welcome <?php echo $_POST["name"];
?>.<br />
You are <?php echo $_POST["age"];
?> years old.</body>
</html>
|
A sample output of the above
script may be:
Welcome John.
You are 28 years old. |
