This chapter shows how to keep the values in the input fields
when the user hits the submit button.
PHP - Keep The Values in The Form
To show the values in the input fields after the user hits the submit button,
we add a little PHP script inside the value attribute of the following input
fields: name, email, and website. In the comment textarea field, we put the
script between the <textarea> and </textarea> tags. The little script outputs the
value of the $name, $email, $website, and $comment variables.
Then, we also need to show which radio button that was checked. For this, we
must manipulate the checked attribute (not the value attribute for radio
buttons):
Name: <input type="text" name="name" value="<?php echo $name;?>">
E-mail: <input type="text" name="email" value="<?php echo $email;?>">
Website: <input type="text" name="website" value="<?php echo $website;?>">
Comment: <textarea name="comment" rows="5" cols="40"><?php echo $comment;?></textarea>
Gender:
<input type="radio" name="gender"
<?php if (isset($gender) && $gender=="female") echo "checked";?>
value="female">Female
<input type="radio" name="gender"
<?php if (isset($gender) && $gender=="male") echo "checked";?>
value="male">Male
<input type="radio" name="gender"
<?php if (isset($gender) && $gender=="other") echo "checked";?>
value="other">Other
