| Working with Forms |
| |
| More Complex Form |
| |
| In this example we will create a self submitting form, which accept user input process the information and display the output, and all in one page. |
| |
| Step-by-Step description: |
| |
<body>
<?php
$name=$_POST["name"];
$email=$_POST["email"];
$mobile=$_POST["mobile"];
$addr=$_POST["address"];
$own=$_POST["own"];
$state=$_POST["state"];
$sex=$_POST["sex"];
$feedback=$_POST["feedback"];
$owns=array();
|
| |
| if (!isset($_POST['submit'])) { //if the form is not submitted we will display the form itself. Otherwise display the contents of the form.
?> |
| |
| In the section we have declared variables to store the values of form fields. In the last line of the above declaration we have used isset() function to check if the form has been submitted. If user has submitted the form, then it will jump directly to else part. |
| |
| The else part |
| |
<?php
}
else
{
?>
<h3> Dear <?php echo $name;?>, thank
you very much for your valuable Feedback</h3>
<hr />

<?php
echo "<pre>";
echo "Name <b>".$name."</b><br />";
echo "Contact No".$mobile."<br />";?>
"EMail Address " <a href="mailto:

Your Have <b><?php foreach ($own as $x=>$val){
#if (!$x=="none")
echo "<br>".$val;
}
?>
</b>
<?php echo "Your address is ".$address ." ".$state;
echo "<br /> And You are a $sex ";
?>
<b>eBIZ Education thanks you for
your valuable suggestion and feedback. </b>
<?php

?>
|
