Hi Mike,
I tried the first script you posted on the NG.
This is what happens when I copy and paste your script:
The formbox appears.
I insert a number.
I click submit.
The number reverts back to 0.
The URL script that you sent me works fine.
I'm using MS Win 98/ Apache / PHP 4
Please advise
The following script is found in Matt Zandstra's book on PHP (Sams) on page
160.
He's explaining forms with PHP and has hard coded a value - 42.
He also is explaining a hidden fleld where the user can submit the number
and each time the user hits submit in the formbox, the counter will register
Use this... enjoy
?php
$numtoguess=42;
if (isset($_POST['num_tries']))
$num_tries = $_POST['num_tries'] + 1;
$message=;
if(!isset($_POST['guess']))
$message=Welcome to the guessing machine;
elseif ($_POST['guess'] $numtoguess)
$message=Your guess was too low.;
This also works with the ternary operator... I don't think it likes the ++ because it
doesn't know the type yet.
?php
$numtoguess=42;
$num_tries = isset($_POST['num_tries'])?$_POST['num_tries']+1:0;
$message=;
if(!isset($_POST['guess']))
$message=Welcome to the guessing machine;

No dice Michael.
I treid both your scripts.
The formbox comes up.
I enter a number.
I hit submit.
The box clears out the entered number without any
I won't keep it up long... but go here... you will see it works...
