If statements and $_POST[] function

[Fire Juggler]

I have a form in one file, then in another file i have
if ((($name=="")||(($userEmail=="")&&($address==""))) &&($enquiry==""))
{$error3="<font face=\"Arial\" color=\"#FF0000\"><strong>Name, at least one
set of contact details, and enquiries are required:</strong></font><br>";
include("enquiries.php");}
else
{
if (($name=="")||(($userEmail=="")&&($address=="")))
{$error3="<font face=\"Arial\" color=\"#FF0000\"><strong>Name, at least one
set of contact details, and enquiries are required:</strong></font><br>";
include("enquiries.php");}
else
{
if ((($name!="")&&(($userEmail!="")||($address!=""))) &&($enquiry==""))
{$error3="<font face=\"Arial\" color=\"#FF0000\"><strong>No enquiries were
entered. Please enter an enquiry before continuing.</strong></font><br>";
include("enquiries.php");
}

how would i do this using the $_POST function?

Hi,

$_POST is NOT a function!
$_POST is a (super)global array.
This means that you can access its content anytime from anywhere.

$_POST will contain a hashed array, that is name/value pairs.

So if somebody has a file1.html with a form, the receiving script (the one
named in the action="Irecieve.php" in the formtag) will receive the
information entered in the form that was posted.

So what is your question excactly?
