i m learning how to have session in my form.

like for example, after the user insert their information in the application form, they will then be redirected to another page. the another page is where they will have to print out their form - with their info added in.

 

but i m unsure how to go about doing it. can someone show me?

It would look something like this:

 

 

<?php

$first_name = $_POST['first_name'];
$last_name = $_POST['last_name'];

//register the sessions
$_SESSION['first_name'] = $first_name;
$_SESSION['last_name'] = $last_name;

?>

<form method="POST" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>">
   First Name: <input type="text" name="first_name"><br>
   Last Name: <input type="text" name="last_name"><br>
</form>

 

This code is not tested and does not error check the inputs. It is just to show you basically how to do it.

Now that the form inputs are sessions, you can echo them out wherever you  want.
