Post error value

[Redapple]

Hello everybody

I have a script that looks like this:

[PHP]
<?php

if (isset($_POST['name'])) {
echo "$_POST[name]";
}
else
{
echo "Here the form with the insert name and submit";
}

?>
[/PHP]

Now if a user press submit the form goes to if (isset($_POST['name'])) {

But there is nothing filled in, Can i stop that there is nothing filled in and that a user needs to put something in the field?

Thanks in advance.

Sorry I am not clear . Are you enter any values in html form ?
if you submit blank value ,its goes to isset($_POST) value ?

If the form has submitted correctly then 'name' will always be set. You need to use

 if (!empty($_POST['name']))

and have the script recall the form again if 'name' is empty with

include 'Your Form'

or

header(Location:'url address')

Try print_r($_POST) ; to see what you are actually getting from the form.

Yes vssp, The html value goes to the if($_post. How can i solve that?

Yes vssp, The html value goes to the if($_post

No! it obviously doesn't.. Look at Motoma's post
