Re: single page form

Basically it comes down to a big if-then-else. PHP will automatically create variables with the same names as are in your form. Here's a quick example: <HTML> <HEAD><TITLE>Form</TITLE></HEAD> <BODY> <? if ($submit) { // Check if the submit button was pressed echo "Hello: $name<BR>\n"; // print out the name } else { //No submit button, so give them the form ?> <FORM ACTION="<? echo $PHP_SELF ?>" METHOD=POST> <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="name"> <INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="Who am I" NAME="submit"> </FORM> <? } // Need to close the if ?> "Adv.
