To do list

Jempi · November 17, 2014

Hi , i am trying to make a to do list where i can add things i still need to do . i also want to remove items from the list when they are done , this is what i made now but it still misses a lot , my array keeps getting emptied when i add something.

im still a beginner in php. This is the file without the css included , i don't think it's relevant to this question to include it.

<?php

session_start();

var_dump( $_POST);

$items = array();

if( ! empty($_POST['item'])) {

$items[] = $_POST['item'];

}

//<?php for ($i=0; $i < count($items) ; $i++) :

//<?php endfor;

?>

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>

<head>

<title>To do : periodeopdracht</title>

</head>

<body>

<?php foreach($items as $item):

echo '<li>' . $item . '<li>' ;

endforeach; ?>

</ul>

</form>

</div>

</body>

</html>

You need to store in $_SESSION insterad of creating a new array each time one is posted

session_start();
var_dump( $_POST);

if (!isset($_SESSION['items'])) {
    $_SESSION['items'] = array();
}
 
if(isset($_POST['item']) && !empty($_POST['item'])) {
        $_SESSION['items'][] = $_POST['item'];
    }

Use session_start() and this same session array in the form page to list current items

Note: unless you then save to a file or db table the items will be lost when the session ends.
