Subject: [PHP] auto-input data into form boxes
I need professional help!
I need to make a form that will display old data in the form boxes, wait for
user input (if they want to change something), and then go on to another
page. This is what I have now, and it doesn't work:
datafile.php
<?php
$alpha="Alpha";
$numb="46";
?>
inputpg.php
<?php
include("datafile.php");
print "<form action=test2.php method=get>";
print "<center><input type=text name=".$alpha." size=5></center><br>";
print "<center><input type=text name=".$numb." size=5></center><br>";
print "<center><input type=submit value=Do_It!></center>";
print "</form>";
?>
test2.php
<html>
<body>
<?php
print "This is alpha".$alpha;
print "<br>this is numb".$numb;
?>
</body>
</html>
