I have a form i will use to register new people and when I click the
submit button, the form just shows itself. It is supposed to show a
message showing field errors if you leave fields blank etc. so
submitting the empty form should show error message in red , then show
form, but all it does is show form. I checked the variable to make
shore they ere ok and they are fine. i believe it is a logical error
with my if else.... I eved modularized everything by using functions
and the same results.
if any one sees the logical error, let me know. Here the code:
<?php

$d = FALSE;
$message1[] = "The email address you entered is not valid.";
}
return;
