I was wondering if it was possible to take HTML user input using PHP (preferably the ID or something I can use numbers in) and to save confusion just echo it back.
So I have some example code here:
<input type="number" maxlength="3" name="test" id="1">
<input type="number" maxlength="3" name="test" id="2">
<input type="number" maxlength="3" name="test" id="2">
What I was looking for is a way where I could use their input and well.... echo it back for now.
if you already know how to submit a form you can use php on the other side like this to echo it out
<form method="POST" action="<?php echo htmlspecialchars($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); ?>">
<input type="text" name="name"><br>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit Form"><br>
</form>
<?php
if (isset($_POST['name'])){
$userinput = $_POST['name'];
echo $userinput;}
?>
in your example all three inputs are named "test" so youll need a different name for each one. My example above uses the "name" of the input to capture it. If your using "GET" change my $_POST['name'] to $_GET['name']
Which method did you use for these inputs? Name them differently, then retrieve the data with:
<?php echo $_GET['test1']; ?>
<?php echo $_GET['test2']; ?>
<?php echo $_GET['test3']; ?>
If you used POST type in the input method, then switch for:
<?php echo $_POST['test1']; ?>
<?php echo $_POST['test2']; ?>
<?php echo $_post['test3']; ?>
