Simple looped text input

Recommended Posts

I'm trying to build a website with a simple text input option.

After the input, the input is checked and acted upon accordingly.

This is followed by a new input line.

 

For example:

> input: test

 

"test" is not known to me

 

> input: _

 

So far, I've been trying things with the "do-while" loop (see code below), but so far, all I seem to get is a fixed input box and the "respons" being displayed below it.

 

<?php


do {

echo "<form name=\"form\">Input:";
echo "<br><input value=\"\" size=\"30\" type=\"text\" name=\"invoer\">";
echo "</form>";

if ($invoer == "info"){
	echo "<br>blah blah blah/n";
	echo "<br>blah blah blah";
}

if ($invoer == "help"){
	echo "<br>Commands: help, clear, info";
}

if ($invoer == "etc"){
	echo "<br..etc..";
}

} while ( $jedi == "1" );

?>

 

Note: there is no need (for me) to be able to break out of the loop (thus "jedi = 1" will never be so).
