I need to save my submit form data like:Name for two pages... For some reason the $_POST only saves data for the "action" page, but cannot be retrived after the action page. Here's my code: HTML (form):
<html>
<body> <form name="input" action="staff.php" method="post">
Username: <input type="text" name="Name">
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
Here's the next page after submiting and it works... (staff.php)
<html>
<?php
session_start();
echo "You have choosen". $_POST['Name']; // it shows what you've choosen...
?>
<form name="input" action="staff2.php" method="post">
Age: <input type="text" name="Age">
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
</html>
Ok and after age submiting Name and Age stop working... (staff2.php) Here's the code:
<?php
session_start();
echo "You have choosen".
$_POST['Name']; //it does't show Name.. Please help!
$_POST['Age']; // it doesnt't show this either..
?>
as you have a session running pass them as session variables.
$_SESSION['name'] = $_POST['name'];
Obviously, there is nothing wrong on the first page. So don't change anything.
The second page. The post works. Then add a hidden input to preserve it and carry it on the next one:
<?php
echo "You have chosen: ". $_POST['Name']; // it shows what you've choosen...
?>
<form name="input" action="staff2.php" method="post">
Age: <input type="text" name="Age">
<input type="hidden" name="Name" value="<?php echo $_POST['Name']; ?>" /> <!-- this one -->
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
On the third and final page. Properly concatenate the variables:
echo 'You have chosen: <br/>';
echo $_POST['Name'] . '<br/>'; // this should carry the hidden input you set on the last page
echo $_POST['Age'];
//^^ you forgot the echo
