sir,
i am starting working with php.i done some programs.but now i have one problem.i do a program like to retrieve the name and email from a phpfile to another.but i can't get.

this is the code "form.php"

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>HTML Form</title>
</head>

<body>


<form action="handle_form.php" method="post">

<fieldset><legend>Enter your information in the form below:</legend>

<p><b>Name:</b><input type="text" name="name" size="20" maxlength="40"/></p>

<p><b>Email Address:</b><input type="text" name="email" size="40" maxlength="60"/></p>
<p><b>Gender:</b><input type="radio" name="gender" value="M"/>Male
<input type= "radio" name="gender" value="F"/>Female</p>
<p><b>Age:</b>
<select name="age">
<option value="0-30">under 30</option>
<option value="30-60">Between 30 and 60</option>
<option value="60+">Over 60</option>
</select></p>
<p><b>Comments:</b><textarea name="comments" rows="3" cols="50"></textarea></p>
</fieldset>
<div align="center"><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit Information"/></div>
</form>

</body>
</html>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Form Feedback</title>

Since you are not new to this forum, you know that code should be posted within the appropriate php, html or code tags. See the Posting Guidelines or, when you are replying in the msg editor, the REPLY GUIDELINES at the right side of the screen.

You cannot expect members to wade throught a lot of unstructured code lines.

In handle_post.php write the following code

$name=$_POST['name'];
$emal=$_POST['email'];
$gender=$_POST['gender'];
$age=$_POST['age'];
$comments=$_POST['comments'];

echo $name;

and now you can test whether the values are being posted or not
