RE: [PHP] PHP_SELF

[Ralph Guzman]

Actually there is no need for you to use exit(); If you choose to use this
method cheking for empty fields one at a time rather than all at once; you
can simplify your code a bit as follows:

If($HTTP_POST_VARS){
    if(!$Age) { echo "Please enter your age"; }
    elseif(!$Email){ echo "Please enter your email"; }
    else

        echo "Thanks for your submission";

        // continue processing...
        ...
        ...
    }
}

but in any case, I'm glad I was of help.

Ok, I would like to thank Ralph Guzman & Richard Lynch for your help.
I combined your ideas into my own working example.
Just posting here for archiving/discussion purposes...
// Input some data //
echo "<form action=\"$PHP_SELF\" method=\"POST\"
enctype=\"multipart/form-data\">\n";
echo "1.  Age:<br>\n";
echo "&nbsp &nbsp<input type=\"text\" name=\"Age\" size=\"4\"
maxlength=\"2\" value=\"$Age\"><p>\n";
echo "2.  Email:<br>\n";
echo "&nbsp &nbsp<input type=\"text\" name=\"Email\" size=\"25\"
maxlength=\"30\" value=\"$Email\"><p>\n";
echo "&nbsp &nbsp<input type=\"submit\" name=\"submit\"
value=\"Submit\">\n";
// Start error correction //
if (!$HTTP_POST_VARS) { exit(); }
        elseif (!$Age) { echo "Please enter your age.<br>\n"; }
         elseif (!$Email) { echo "Please enter your email.<br>\n"; }
        else { echo "Thanks for your submission.\n"; }
// Do what you want with you sanitised strings //
.......... :)

Thanks again guys...
