You can read the requested data using PHP like, when user enters their information into the form and wants to review the entered details, then you have to first read that data and prints back to the browser.
Here is an example shows how any requested data can be read using PHP.
<?php
if($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == "POST")
{
// reading the requested data
// and storing the value to separate
// variables
if(isset($_POST['data1']))
{
$data1 = $_POST['data1'];
}
if(isset($_POST['data1']))
{
$data2 = $_POST['data2'];
}
if(isset($_POST['data3']))
{
$data3 = $_POST['data3'];
}
if(isset($_POST['data4']))
{
$data4 = $_POST['data4'];
}
}
?>
<html>
<head>
<title>PHP Reading Requested Data Example</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
if($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == "POST")
{
echo "Reading first data...<br/>";
if(!empty($data1))
{
echo "The first data is: ".$data1;
}
else
{
echo "Sorry, first data is empty.";
}
echo "<hr/>";
echo "Reading second data...<br/>";
if(!empty($data2))
{
echo "The second data is: ".$data2;
}
else
{
echo "Sorry, second data is empty.";
}
echo "<hr/>";
echo "Reading third data...<br/>";
if(!empty($data3))
{
echo "The third data is: ".$data3;
}
else
{
echo "Sorry, third data is empty.";
}
echo "<hr/>";
echo "Reading fourth data...<br/>";
if(!empty($data4))
{
echo "The fourth data is: ".$data4;
}
else
{
echo "Sorry, fourth data is empty.";
}
exit();
}
?>
<form method="POST">
