Hi,
Ive created a form and validated it using php. It validates ok but if a field is left blank, the prompt message appears, which then clears all entries made in the form. Im not sure how to fix this. any suggestions?
Thanks
heres the code:
<?php
if(!isset($POST['submit']))
{
if(isset($GET['pass1']))
{
echo "Password Field Cannot Be Left Blank";
}
if(isset($GET['pass2']))
{
echo "Confirm Password Field Cannot Be Left Blank";
}
if(isset($GET['pass3']))
{
echo "Passwords do not match";
}
if(isset($GET['address']))
{
echo "Address Field Cannot Be Left Blank";
}
if(isset($GET['firstname']))
{
echo "First Name Field Cannot Be Left Blank";
}
if(isset($GET['lastname']))
{
echo "Last Name Field Cannot Be Left Blank";
}
if(isset($GET['email1']))
{
echo "Email Field Cannot Be Left Blank";
}
if(isset($GET['email2']))
{
echo "Not a valid email address";
}
if(isset($GET['phone']))
{
echo "Phone Field Cannot Be Left Blank";
}
?>
