The HTML and the PHP attached, now its jacked up now when I run it if you do put something in the field. its says you didnt.. 

Then somewhere along the line, when you encounter an error you need to set $chkErrors to true.

$chkErrors == TRUE;

$fName = filter_input(INPUT_POST, "fName");
	if(!empty($_POST['fName']) && isset($_POST['fName'])){ 
print "Go back and put a name in";
$chkErrors ==FALSE;
}
 $lName = filter_input(INPUT_POST, "lName");
   if(!empty($_POST['lName']) && isset($_POST['lName'])){
print "Go back and put a lname in";
$chkErrors == FALSE;
}   

$city = filter_input(INPUT_POST, "city");
	if(!empty($_POST['city']) && isset($_POST['city'])){
   
print "Go back and put acity in";
$chkErrors ==FALSE;
}  
$state = filter_input(INPUT_POST, "state");
	if(!empty($_POST['state']) && isset($_POST['state'])){
   
print "Go back and put astate in";
$chkErrors == FALSE;
} 
$zipCode = filter_input(INPUT_POST, "zipCode");
	if(!empty($_POST['zipCode']) && isset($_POST['zipCode'])){
   
print "Go back and put zip in";
$chkErrors ==FALSE;
} 

if ($chkErrors == FALSE){
	echo <<<HERE

if((!isset($_GET['fName']) or ($_GET['fName'] == ""))) {

print "You did not give me a name 1";
$correct = FALSE;
} 
$lName = filter_input(INPUT_GET, "lName");
 if((!isset($_GET['lName']) or ($_GET ['lName'] == ""))) {

<?php
if(isset($_GET['Type'])) {
$valid = true;

//First, delcarations
$fName = filter_input(INPUT_GET, "fName");
$lName = filter_input(INPUT_GET, "lName");
$city = filter_input(INPUT_GET, "city");
$state = filter_input(INPUT_GET, "state");
$zipCode = filter_input(INPUT_GET, "zipCode");

//Array with GET "Names"
$GetArray = array('fName', 'lName', 'city', 'state', 'zipCode');
$begin = 0;

//ErrMsg Base
$errMsgs = "Sorry, something's wrong with your Data Input!
<ul>";

//Start the Check for Empty Data input
while($begin < count($GetArray)) {
if(!$_GET[$GetArray[$begin]]) {
//Field was Empty, return false...
$valid = false;
//And extend the Error Message.
$errMsgs .= "<br><li>You did not provide ".$GetArray[$begin]."</li> ";
}
$begin += 1;
}
//End the Error message
$errMsgs .= "</ul>";

//Final Check
if ($valid == true) {
echo "Welcome {$fName}, {$lName},{$city} {$state} {$zipCode}";
} else {
echo $errMsgs;
}

}
?>

<form action="script.php" method="get">
<input type="hidden" name="Type" value="z">
<input type="text" name="fName">
<input type="text" name="lName">
<input type="text" name="city">
<input type="text" name="state">
<input type="text" name="zipCode">
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

Worked fine for me.
