handling web forms data

[plooto]

Could someone let me know how to handle web forms data using the post method in php. I am sending using the post method and receiving using the request variable, but the order is not coming out to be right. Please let me know what to do..

 

Thanks

can you show your code using the code tags?

when you receive using request variable, the data is recieved is of post and get.. you order might be wrong there.

 

check this link  http://ankurkhetrapal.com/blog/?p=4

 

if you send using POST.. receive using POST.

[jos.]

syntax is :

 

reciveing_script.php

<?php

  
  $sent_input =  $_POST['sent_input_name']; //the name in this POST superGlobal should be the same as the name of the input element. 

?>

 

I hope that answers your question.

I would suggest doing something like this while testing just to know a little more.

 

 

if (isset($_POST['sent_input_name']))

{

echo 'post is active';

$sent_input =  $_POST['sent_input_name']; //the name in this POST superGlobal should be the same as the name of the input element.

}

echo 'information in sent input is: '.$sent_input;

 

 

This should let you know if you have received the information in the first place.
