Im trying to send variables from page1.php to page2.php and also upload a picture. My codes are huge, so ill try to simplify it at most.
page1.php code:
<?php
$name = $_POST['empname'];
$descr = $_POST['descr'];
//...etc WONT BE WRITING OTHERS VARIABLES.
?>
<form method="GET" name="form1" id="form1" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="page2.php?name=<?php echo $name;?>&descr=<?php echo $descr;?>">
<input name="empname" type="text" id="empname" form="form1">
//...etc
<input name="file" type="file" id="file" form="form1" accept="image/gif, image/jpeg, image/x-ms-bmp, image/x-png">
<input name="submit" type="submit" id="submit" form="form1" value="Crear">
</form>
page2.php code:
<?php
$name = $_GET['name'];
$descr = $_GET['descr'];
$success = "INSERT INTO empresas(name,descr) VALUES ('$name','$descr')";
$data = mysql_query ($success)or die(mysql_error());
if($data) { echo 'It worked'; } else { echo 'wont work'; } ?>
<?php
// ALL the data of uploading a picture from http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_file_upload.asp
move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"],
"fotoemp/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]);?>
Problem: I was trying to make the php string like: www.sample.com/page2.php?name=value&descr=value; so i couldn't because i had the Form method as POST. Good, i change it to GET, and worked perfectly. Now that the string works, i use it, but it wont retrieve the variables. And will the Upload file script will stop working.
var_dump() is a debugging function. If you want to access an index of the superglobal array that is POST, simply reference it like:
$_POST['empname']; // or 'empdesc'
Or loop through it with a foreach loop, but if this is a form submission that's not really needed.
To get value from post use this:
$_POST['fieldName']
where fieldName is name of input in your html form code:
<input type='text' name='fieldName' />
var_dump es una función para depurar, me refiero que es para buscar errores o cosas que no van bien. Si quieres acceder a los datos, usa $_POST['empname'] o el valor que envíes a través del formulario en el atributo name="". Feliz coding! ;)

var_dump is a debugging function, a mean it's to search for bugs or things that aren't ok. If you wanna access to data, use $_POST['empname'] or the value that you sent through the form in the attribute name="". Happy coding. :)
