Hi all,
i'm designing a lot of forms and would like to know the standard practice. which of
the following will be advisable?
1) form action is $PHP_SELF
i.e. <form name="form01" action="<?=$PHP_SELF;?>" method="post">
i.e the script to check if the values submitted is valid and the scripts to
insert the data into the database are all in the same php file with the form.
2) form action is another verification php file
i.e. <form name="form01" action="verify_form.php" method="post">
i.e the script to check if the values submitted is valid and the scripts to
insert the data into the database are in a different php file with the form.
which of them is best?? i read before that the second option is preferred because if
users click "back" on their browser, they will not resubmit the form again etc.. does
anyone has a suggestion for me?
thank you so much!
regards,
hwee
