printf Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Use sessions, or just do a redirect with the date value in your url. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyellen Posted October 26, 2015 Author Share Posted October 26, 2015 how do I do that? can you please show some example using my code? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benanamen Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 (edited) how can I apply bootstrap and CSS to that page The Manual is a good place to start. (Bootstrap IS Css) * OP typed "date" but I think he meant data. There is no date in his code. Edited October 26, 2015 by benanamen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 (edited) After saving the data in the database, you need to retrieve the last inserted ID, and then redirect the user to another URL with that ID passed as some kind of parameter. This other URL will then run a script that fetches the information back from the database using the ID passed in the URL, and then display it in some kind of template. Individually they're all relatively simple things to do; just google them separately, and put the pieces together.
