PHP Form Question

1 New Member
I have just recently started creating PHP Forms but I am still learning. One of the snags I ran into has been bothersome for the last week or so. I have created a PHP form but it's very long and if the client doesnt fill in lets say 1/2 of the form. When the email form is printed out it takes a lot of paper. I would like to create something where only the fields that have something in them is submitted. Can anyone help me out with this?

My form works just as a normal php/html form works then sends to a 2 include files which sends an email to the client and one to defualt info@domain.com .

what about for every POST variable you put
[PHP]
$var = $_POST['answer1'];

if($var != ''){print "Your response was $var";}[/PHP]

I suggest you read up on if else statements

Hi, I am trying to change the data in a form field from python. The following code does not crash but has no effect as if "form" is just a copy of the original html form. Must I recreate the form order to do that ? My point is for the client to be able to re-read the modified data.

Hi, I am working on a genealogy form. The only table (so far) lists everybody in the family, one record per person. Each record has an autonum ID. The parent form (frmMainForm) displays the data in each record, which includes the ID of the father and the mother (who also have records in the table). One record per form. I have a Tab Control in the form, and in one of the tabs I have a subform (sfmSiblings) in which I wish to list...

I have some old code that I use from the Access 95 Developers handbook. The code works very well, with the exception that it doesn't seem to recognize wide screens, and sizes tab controls so that they are too big and wind up covering up some of the fields on the main form. Is there any good code out there that works in a similar fashion that will also either a) stretch the form width wise on widescreens or b), rely on height rather than...

Hi, I have a form for uploading documents and inserting the data into a mysql db. I would like to validate the form. I have tried a couple of Javascript form validation functions, but it appears that the data goes straight to the processing page, rather than the javascript seeing if data is missing and popping up an alert. I thought it may be because much of the form is populated with data from the db (lists, etc.), but when I leave...

I need to create a form that takes a number that the user enters, and duplicates a question the number of times the user entered. For instance, if the customer enters 5 on the first page, when they press next the form generates "How old are you?" 5 times on the page. The customer will answer all 5 questions then press next. Finally, all the local variables get dynamically created and written to a database. I have already taken care of...

Hello All, Is is possible to use an ADO recordset to populate an unbound continuous Subform? I've done some Googling without much luck, so this maybe impossible, but let me try to explain why. I've been exploring using Access as a front end to both SQL MSDE and Oracle XE. I'm in the process of writing a class to handle the basics of the ADO connection and recordsets. The basic relationships are as follows:

I've spent the last few minutes searching for this question and I found an answer, but it wasn't quite what the client wanted. I have a simple online form where the user needs to fill out five fields out of nine. The other four are already there and filled out for the user. When they hit submit, all data is sent to us. But, if they desire (for whatever reason) the user can possibly delete what is already there and fill in something...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.

Hello I'm a network technician in training and I need your help. I am currently learning how to create and manage the different types of VPNs and I have a question about LAN-to-LAN VPNs.
