i am presently passing the value of a variable to a php file using GET
after data has been inserted to the database.
ex=
$firstname = $_POST["firstname"];
if(!$sqlconnection)
{
echo "error message";
}
else
{
header("Location: thankyou.php?firstnameis=$firstname");
}
how can i send the value of $firstname using POST instead of GET as
the value is presently appearing in the address bar. ideally i would
like using POST.
NOTE = please suggest techniques that does NOT involve javascript in
order to pass $firstname using POST method, as i have done the entire
validations using php and i have assumed that user has javascript
turned off.
please advice.
thanks.
