Hi Everybody,
I am very new in php coding. I tried to apply the knowledge I got and created a
form that would allow visitors to fill in their data and
displayed it and when there is mistake they could go back to the form and make
correction with all the filled data still displayed. This worked well. However, my
problem has to do with uploadig picture and include on the displayed page.It only shows X while other information displayed. Meanwhile a random number is inserted into the photo field in the database any time this transaction is carried out.
Another problem is that the "id" number increases whenever the displayed page
is refreshed and this is reflected in the database. The implication of this is that a
visitor can make multiple entries into the database instead of one. This is not what I intend to achieve with the form. I hope somebody can help me solve this problem. Great thanks in anticipation.
The codes are below:
index4.php(form)

session_start();
