snowman15 Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Basically I just want to have the default value of a text feild in a form to be whatever is in a .txt file. I have <form action="http://www.*******.com/text2.php" method="post"> words: <input name="words" type="text" /> <input type="submit" value="submit" name="submit"/> I just want the "value" (i think) to be whatever is inside testing.txt (same directory) I was thining i would do a $variable=fread() and then value=$variable BUT the form is inside of a .html file so how would i make a php variable? Any suggestions? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/56771-solved-easy-form-question-please-help/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
