I'm trying to do a simple PHP script that can get a name from the URL and then print a "hello" message for that name. The variable I'm after is displayed as fname in the URL as I intend to add a middle and last name later on. I believe I've done the get correctly, but when I enter the first name and submit, I'm lead to just a blank screen.
<html>
<head>
<title>PHP Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php echo 'Hello ' . htmlspecialchars($_GET["fname"]); ?>
</body>
</html>
And here is the HTML page where this PHP script is called.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Hello World</title>
<meta charset="utf-8">
</head>
<body>
<form action="helloWorld.php" method="get">
<h2>Name Form</h2>
<table border="0">
<tr>
<td>First Name:</td>
<td><input type="text" name="fname" id="fname"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Middle Name:</td>
<td><input type="text" name="mname" id="mname"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Last Name:</td>
<td><input type="text" name="lname" id="lname"></td>
</tr>
</table>
<input type="submit" name="btnSubmit" id="btnSubmit" value="Submit">
<input type="reset" name="btnReset" id="btnReset" value="Reset Form">
</form>
</body>
</html>
</div>
