Thank you so much! Is there a rep system where I can give your karma or thanks?

My name is Emaj and I just started learning PHP. I want to expand my PHP knowledge and hope one day I would develop a PHP script that would be used by millions! I joined the forum so I can seek more knowledge and to ask for help.

I am fairly new to PHP. I tried searching for answers on Google and in this forum, but I found no solutions. Problem I used PHP include as a way of navigating through my website. I did this so if I changed the design of the website, I don't have to edit each page. The function is similar to iframes. Yesterday I developed a tip calculator (calculates how much tip you need to give to the waiter or waitress based on your bill). However I've noticed after I press "submit", it sends the visitor to a page that shows only the results. I want to show the results within my website design. Screen shots: I input the data. Notice the gray background and the navigation bar. After I press "Submit Order", it shows the results but the results aren't within my website's design. (Notice the white background). Question: How can I incorporate the results from the tip calculator in my design after pressing the "Submit Order" button? Here is the code on the main page of my website (HTML/CSS with PHP) P.S For links in the navigation section, I used : ?id=name <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>MV Book</title> <link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" /> </head> <body> <div id="wrapper"> <div id="wrapper2"> <div id="header"></div> <!-- End of Header --> <div id="navi"> <ul> <li><a href="/">Home</a></li> <li><a href="?id=tip">Tip calculator</a></li> <li><a href="?id=orderform">Tip calculator</a></li> </ul> </div> <!-- End of Navi --> <div id="content"> <?php $id = $_GET['id'] ; switch($id) { default: include('cutenews/show_news.php'); break; case "orderform": include('orderform.html'); break; case "tip": include('tip.php'); } ?> </div> <!-- End of Content --> </div> <!-- End of Wrapper 2 --> </div> <!-- End of Wrapper --> </body> </html> And this is the code that is on the page where I input the code: <form action="processtip.php" method="POST"> <table border="0"> <tr> <td>Bill Amount</td> <td align="center"><input type="text" name="billamount" size="10" maxlength="10" id="billamount"></td> </tr> <td>Tip Percent (%)</td> <td align="center"><input type="text" name="tippercent" size="10" maxlength="10" id="tippercent"></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Number Of People (Split)</td> <td align="center"><input type="text" name="people" size="10" maxlength="10" id="people" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" align="center"><input type="submit" value="Submit Order"></td> </tr> </table> </form> This is the PHP Code that process the input data and displays the results (processtip.php) : <?PHP $billamount = $_POST['billamount']; $tipnumber = $_POST['tipnumber']; $people = $_POST['people']; ?> <html> <head> <title>Emaj's Tip Calculator</title> </head> <body> <h1>Emaj's Tip Calculator</h1> <h2>Thanks for using my Online Tip Calculator</h2> <?php if ($billamount < 0) { echo "<p> You can't have a negative number. Does the restuarant owe you money?"; exit; } else { if ($billamount == 0) { echo "What's the point of using a tip calculator if you didn't order anything?<br />"; exit; } if ($billamount > 0) { echo "<p> Your bill is $".$billamount; } } $tippercent = 0; $tippercent = $tipnumber/100; $tipamount = 0; $tipamount = $billamount * $tippercent; echo "<p> Total tip is $".$tipamount; $totalamount = 0; $totalamount = $billamount + $tipamount; echo "<p>Total bill (Tip included) is $".$totalamount; echo "<p>You are splitting the Total Bill with ".$people." people."; $indperson = 0; $indperson = $totalamount/$people; echo "<p>Each individual person pays $".$indperson; ?> If there is a thread that has a similar problem with a solution, can you please post a link to it? Thank you and I apologize in advance if there's a duplicate thread. -Emaj
