I have been developing a web-based app for the last couple days and, out of the blue, my forms stopped posting any information. It happens across multiple browsers (firefox, chrome, safari). The strange part is up until yesterday, everything worked perfectly. I need new eyes on the page to maybe see something wrong, because I am baffled.
Major problem: When the form is submitted, $_POST['whatever'] always returns NULL.
<?php
session_start();
include('functions.php');
var_dump($_POST['todo']); //returning NULL
var_dump($_POST['amount']); //returning NULL
if(isset($_POST['todo']))
{
$todo='';
$todo=$_POST['todo'];
if($todo=='sellItem')
{
sellItem($_POST['type'],$_POST['flavor'],$_POST['amount']);
}
elseif($todo=='test'){
clearList();
$_SESSION['itemList']=array();
}
elseif($todo=='cashOut'){
itemListParse();
}
}
if(!isset($_SESSION['itemList']))
{
$_SESSION['itemList']=array();
}
?>
