Hi Brandon.
Here's what I've found out:
1) check the scope of your variables
How do I check this?
2) does $HTTP_POST_VARS["first_name"] contain the expected data?
Yes, $HTTP_POST_VARS["first_name"] contains the expected data.
3) what does the code look like?
I reduced my code to this (below) in an attempt to isolate the problem.
...
<body>
<?php
print("<p>First name: " . $first_name . "</p>");
?>
</body>
...
The output was First name: (blank)
However, when I replaced $first_name to $HTTP_POST_VARS["first_name"], the output was First name: Kelvin (assuming I typed Kelvin into the text box of the preceding form).
...
<body>
<?php
print("<p>First name: " . $HTTP_POST_VARS["first_name"] . "</p>");
?>
</body>
...
What do I do now?
Regards.
Kelvin
