Implanting Vars.Meltdown 04-08-2003, 01:45 AM How would I take a form field var. which was posted by a user and implant it into a page? Jason 04-08-2003, 02:50 AM use the _POST to get the var into a PHP variable... Jason fractalbit 04-08-2003, 03:44 AM If you have a form field that look like this : <input type=text name=username> Then, after the form has been submitted you can access the value submitted like this : The data you submitted is <?php echo $_POST['username'] ?> or <?php print "The data you submitted is {$_POST['username']}" ?> Note that you have to use {} when accessing the variable inside quotes.

Make sure that is the case for you otherwise it will generate errors. Duniyadnd Meltdown 04-10-2003, 12:42 PM thanks..thats probably my problem |
