Beginners guide to php for processing

PHP

Hi from damp and cold Wakefield UK :slight_smile:

I need a tutorial please regarding understanding how to process a form with php. I can cobble one together with HTML but php is an unknown quantity for me.

So if anyone could point me to a resource that is a beginners guide for php form processing I’d be very gratefull.

Thanks,
David

Hi David, I’ve done a quick search with Google and came up with this website which seems to be what your really after: link

I thought we had one here at SP but I could only find a CSS tutorial. :slight_smile:

I think answer to this question is available at php.net site as well.
Here it is: http://php.net/manual/en/tutorial.forms.php

and you can search on my blog for various other issues related to form.
Enter this on google:

I don’t quite like how they did step 3, but you can find ways to validate forms from posts here or searching online.
