hey,

 

here is what i would do off the top of my head:

 

in place of your if statement where you check if the form is posted:

 

<?php
if ($_POST['title'] != "") { 

$title = $_POST['title'];


echo "Your title is  ". $title . "<br />";
echo "Thank you for ordering from Tizag Art Supplies!";
} else {
?>

hey thank but it gives me Undefined index: title in /home/runningp/public_html/members/include/editforum.php on line 19 if ($_POST['title'] != "") {

Hey can you try this and see what it gives you:

 

<?php

error_reporting(E_ALL);
require_once '../settings.php';
checkLogin ('1');
$id=$_GET['id']; 

$query = "SELECT * FROM forumtutorial_posts where postid='$id'"; 
if ($result = mysql_query($query))]
{
if (mysql_num_rows($result)) 
{
	$array = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
	$title = $array['title'];
      
	if ($_POST['title_field'] != "") 
	{ 
		echo "Your title is  ". $_POST['title_field'] . "<br />";
		echo "Thank you for ordering from Tizag Art Supplies!";
	} 
	else 
	{
	?>

	<h4>test</h4>
	<form action="<?php "$_SERVER[php_SELF]" ?>" method="post"> 

	Title: 
	  <input name="title_field" type="text" value="<?php echo $title;?>" /> 
	<input type="submit" value="edit"/>
	</form>
	</body>
	</html>
<?php 
	}
}
}
?>
