[Resolved] Combine text from input boxes

[james_cwy]

I am a newbie.🙂
Lets say I have 3 input box, one contains first name, middle name and one last name.
Can I combine the text from the input boxes into a string and then only insert the combined string into a field into the database?
Eg Input box 1: <.. name="first"> \in html
Input box 2:<.. name="middle"> \in html
Input box 3:<.. name="last"> \in html
Say I type: David in box 1, Copper in box 2 and Field in box 3.
Now I want to combine these into one variable , ie "David Copper Field" and then insert the whole thing into the database.
How can I do this? Pls provide an example
What if it is more than 3 input boxes, what do I change/add?
Thanks a million.

Hallo,

just:

$combValue = $POST['first']." ".$POST['last'];

$combValue have to insert into the database

you can use trim() to remove unwished whitspace

You have to paste them in one variable

$total = $option1." ".$option2."".$option3;
en then insert $total
