mindapolis Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Hi, I'm trying to make a form sticky but when I display it on the web I get a blank page. I'm following the example given in my PHP book I'm wondering if there 's an error in the book because it has 2 opening form tags which I didn't think was right. <!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>Untitled Document</title> </head> <body> <?php $errors=array(); if(isset($_POST['submit'])){ validate_input(); //checks for empty fields if(count($errors) !=0){ display_form(); } else { display_form(); } } function validate_input(){ global $errors; if($_POST["name"] == ""){ $errors['name']="<font color='red'> please enter your name </font>"; } } function display_form(){ global $errors; ?> <form action="" method="post"> Name: <input name="name" type="text" size="10" maxlength="10" value = "<?php echo $_POST[name]; ?>"/> <br /> <?php echo $errors['name']; ?> <br /> Email: <input name="email" type="text" size="15" maxlength="30" /><br /> <input name="submit " type="submit" value="submit " /> </form> <?php } ?> </body> </html> Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/253921-sticky-form-not-working/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
