Thanks for the suggestion. I see the point is use database to store
the list. But is there any way that I can store and pass along the
list without going into the database first?
Yes, a portion of the list will eventually go into the database, but
at this stage, I perfer not if I can...
Try this modification of the above code:
<?php
session_start();
$tmp = (isset($_SESSION['tmp']))?$_SESSION['tmp']:array();
if (isset($_POST['action'])) {
// data is added onto the $tmp array whichever button is
pressed
if ($_POST['data'] != '' )$tmp[] =
htmlentities(stripslashes($_POST['data']));
if ($_POST['action'] == "done") {
// clean_data($tmp);
// insert_into_database($tmp);
echo 'The final list of data entered is:<br>'."\n";
for ($i=0;$i<count($tmp);$i++)
echo 'Data: ' . $tmp[$i] . "<br>\n";
unset($_SESSION['tmp']);
exit();
}
$_SESSION['tmp'] = $tmp;
}
for ($i=0;$i<count($tmp);$i++)
echo 'Data: ' . $tmp[$i] . "<br>\n";
?>
<form style="margin-top:0;padding-top:0" action="<? echo
$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ?>" method="post">
<label for="data">Data:</label><input type="text" name="data" id="data"
value="" />
<input type="submit" name="action" value="add" /> <input
type="submit" name="action" value="done" />
</form>
