Your methods are just ridiculous. Stop creating a bunch of variables for nothing. The whole Class_info.php need to be thrown in the trash. It is just a container for a bunch of variables for nothing.

 

You have an HTML5 document yet you are using XHTML tags.

presumably, before this assignment, you had assignments leading up to having a single form and the form processing code for it, hopefully on a single page, so that you weren't duplicating code and you could display any validation errors when you re-displayed the same form?

 

this assignment, rather than just repeating that logic three times in separate files and stepping between the files, should be more about implementing this all on a single page, which would eliminate all the triplicated logic and html markup. when you move from one form to the next, you would just submit a hidden 'step' value with the form data. the code on a single page would use the step value to control what the page does.

 

you can produce previous/next step form buttons (like pagination) to let the visitor move between steps. if not on the first step, you would display a previous button. if not on the last step, you would display a next button. if on the last step, the next button would become the final submit button. the form processing code would use previous/next input to modify the step value if the submitted form data is valid (you would stay on the same step number if the data isn't valid.)

 

the form processing code would also use the submitted step value to control what it does. the submitted step value would tell the form processing code which set of inputs it should expect. the code would validate the input data and if the step is not the final form submission, store the validated data in a session variable (i would use the step number as a sub-array key for store the data from each step.)  forget about trying to use an OOP class for any part of this, get the program logic to work first. if the submitted data is from the final form submission, after you validate the inputs, use all the submitted data for whatever purpose you need.
