Can anyone help. I've tried scaling down a script to the bare minimum and
it still is not working correctly. What I think should happen is that when
the field app_fname is blank, that $hold_chk will get set to 1 and the 1st
if statement will be executed. What actually happens is that when I hit
submit, the form stays where it is, for example if the form where the submit
button is located is on the form other.php, then when I hit submit this is
where it stays. If I then hit the submit button a 2nd time, it post to the
some.php form. I've tried this script without the conditional if(isset()
and it works. I need to have the isset() otherwise the form displays all
empty fields as soon as it loads, before the submit button is hit. Any help
would be appreciated. After working on this for 2 weeks it seems like i'm
stuck.
Thanks
Art

Sort of, but this is a scaled down version of the code, which was requested.
I'm still stuck and still trying to understand why it's not working.
Thanks

Try something like this.
$holdchk= (strlen ($_POST['B1'])>0 and strlen($_POST['app_fname'])==0);
$action= ($holdchk)? "some.php": "other.php" ;
echo "<form method='POST' action='$action '>";
avoid isset and empty

And you took no notice of my post on the subject before. You are still
echoing html /before/ the<htmltag!
I think you need something like this:
<?php
$holdchk = 0;
if (isset($_POST['B1'])) {
$form= "<br><br><b r>";
if (empty($_POST['app_fname'])) {
$holdchk = 1;

Why avoid isset?
I use that function in every script that receives clientinformati on...
Couldn't life without it.
Personally I think your posted code is a bad example on how to solve it...
You need to read it twice and rethink it. Clear code is better and happens
to use isset().
Just my 2 cent of course...

I don't think he knows what he's talking about. isset is essential.

Same here. And it's really handy when using forms with multiple submit
buttons, to see which was pressed. (print, edit, delete, for example.)

Yeah, the example is indeed a bit messy. And concidering the level of
the OP, it's no help at all, it only confuses more. The OP requires the
"php for dummies" answer.

Geoff, I tried modifying the code with your suggestions. It had the effect
of disabling the submit button. It seems like there has to be <form
method="POST" action=""in the html, to enable the submit button.
Variables aren't being recognized by the html as defining the form.
Thanks

I was in a hurry last night because I was going out and not really
paying attention. Your code /is/ still seriously screwed but that
wasn't the solution.
Can you please describe what you /expect/ it to do? I'm sure the answer
is very simple.

Hi,
Does using the the conditional operator (?:) instead of the common "if"
statement will give a performance gain in a C# .NET 2003 application
(even in C# .NET 2005?).
What is the advantage of using it in C# other than typing shorter if ?
Thanks,

In hindsight, I am disappointed with the choice of conditional syntax. I know it's too late to change. The problem is
y = some thing or other if x else something_else
When scanning this my eye tends to see the first phrase and only later notice that it's conditioned on x (or maybe not notice at all!). Particularly if 'some thing or other' is long or complicated.

Hey Guys,
I have a huge statement loads of if statements in... and its getting bigger.
On closer inspection there is only 3 difference in the select statement. so I thought I could cut the whole thing down to just 1 select statement if I have a conditional Having.
I've simplified the IF statement down a bit to give you an idea of what im trying to achieve
