web forms - logic for what happens after

[acuradio]

The area of php that i just cant seem to grasp conceptually at this point is capturing user input with webforms. I understand the webforms themselves and how each field captures values and sets them to variables. I also understand form validation Where i lose it is when a user hits the submit button.

1) Please view my attached jpeg, i put a clear mini sample diagram of whats going on with my site.

If i wanted to create a very simple webform that just added one element into my single dimension array ($ar_price) what would the code be for that.

Also, on my diagram, is it possible to avoid the multi pages and just have one dynamic page that could accomplish this, if so what route would you recommend.

thank you

If that is that case, check this out:

OR, the world is your oyster via Google, right: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=tutorial+php+forms&btnG=Google+Search

If you create a form with a method of POST, the resulting submitted form data to your script will be accessible via the $_POST super global array.

Give it a try yourself. Not very complicated or difficult. If you then have problems, feel free to post back relevant code where the problem exist.

Good luck.
