Passing variables from one script to another using the POST METHOD
|
|
|
| >From an HTML form, I am collecting 3 variables, 2 from a radio button
and one from an text box. I call a php script where I echo out what
has been selected and ask to confirm. Upon confirm I want to submit
those variables to be processed. The problem is I'm using another Post
Method to call another script to do the processing but those variables
do not get passed. I'm new to php and I'm researching what is the best
method to accomplish this. Here's a sample of simple confirmation
script where the 3 variables are passed from the html form. I need to
confirm the selections, then process the 3 variables. I realize this
is basic and I will also need to check using the isset function that
all 3 variables have been selected from the html form before
displaying. For now, I just want a confirmation of what has been
selected, then process the variables. Thx to all who can help.
<html>
<form action="process.php" method=post>
<?php
echo "You have selected $var1 and $var2 and $var3. Are you sure?";
?>
<br>
<input type=submit value="Confirm">
<html>

| In the above html page, you need to pass the 3 variables as hidden
values before submit button. So the values will be passed to another
page where you need to process using the values.

echo "You have selected $var1 and $var2 and $var3. Are you sure?";
?>
<br>
<input type=submit value="Confirm">
<html>
<?php
if (isset($_POST['var1'])) {
process $_POST['var1'] and the rest somehow
}
?>
