- The example below contains an HTML form with two input fields and a submit button:
-
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
<html> <body> <form action="welcome.php" method="post"> Name: <input type="text" name="fname" /> Age: <input type="text" name="age" /> <input type="submit" /> </form> </body> </html>
- When a user fills out the form above and clicks on the submit button, the form data is sent to a PHP file, called "welcome.php", "welcome.php" looks like this:
1 2 3 4 5 6
<html> <body> Welcome <?php echo $_POST["fname"]; ?>!<br /> You are <?php echo $_POST["age"]; ?> years old. </body> </html>
- Output could be something like this:
Welcome John!
You are 28 years old.
- Notice that any form element in an HTML page will automatically be available to your PHP scripts.
