I do forms like this <? if (!empty($data)) { echo "You entered $data"; } else { ?>
<form action="<?= $SCRIPT_NAME ?>" method="post"> <input type="text" name="data"> </form> <? } ?> The if line just checks to see if any data has been passed if it has it prints what you send else if shows the form -----Original Message----- From: Ben Clumeck [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 06 December 2001 17:14 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] Forms and Results with PHP I have a form that a user can put his contact info. This form posts to a file called results.php. The results.php file has a mail() command and the echo (i.e. <? echo "$name"; ?>) to show the user confirmation of what he has submitted. However, if someone goes directly to results.php it will show Name: blank and email blank information. Is there a way for the page to post an error stating no information was submitted or is there a way to enable the page to process without information?
