$_Post Variable Doesn't Seem To So What I Want

[achilles1971]

Here is my form:

 

<FORM action="eatnlocal_validate.php" method="post">

<P>

Name: <INPUT type="text" id="name"><BR>

Restaurant name: <INPUT type="text" id="restaurant"><BR>

Email: <INPUT type="text" id="email"><BR>

<input type="submit" value="Submit" name="submit">

</P>

</FORM>

 

Here is my eatnlocal_validate.php:

 

<?php

if (isset($_POST['name']) && isset($_POST['restaurant']) && isset($_POST['email'])){

 

$name = $_POST['name'];

$restaurant = $_POST['restaurant'];

$email = $_POST['email'];

 

header("Location: info_ad.php");

}

else{

echo "Please enter all information. Click "?><a href = "info_form.php">Here</a><?php echo" to go back.";

}

?>

 

When I enter info into all three fields, I still get the else function.

 

What am I doing wrong?

 

Thanks

You need to specify a name attribute for the input tags...

 

 

<form action="eatnlocal_validate.php" method="post">
<P>
Name: <input type="text" id="name" name="name"><br>
Restaurant name: <input type="text" id="restaurant" name="restaurant"><br>
Email: <input type="text" id="email" name="email"><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" name="submit">
</P>
</form>

 

and you don't really need to use id, unless it has something to do with your CSS or something...
