Can someone recommend a better method for doing something like the following?
All of my programs are written like this, but it's really poor form
considering I'm not predeclaring my variables, etc. Only thing I can really
think of is to assign a value in the form a number like 1 or something, then
do a if $value == 1 {do something} but that seems kinda hokey. Here's an
example of something I'd do:
<HTML><BODY>
<?
if ($submitdata) {
dosomething;
exit;
}
echo "<form name=\"form\" action=\"$PHP_SELF?\">\n";
echo " <input type=\"text\" name=\"data\">\n";
echo " <input type=\"submit\" name=\"submitdata\" value=\"
Submit \">\n";
echo "</form>\n</body>\n</html>";
?>
