php - transferring data between forms.

Post by dthompson3 »

for starters , u will have to bare with me, as ive only been programming with php for a week.

Problem...

I have a html page named home.php, with a 'form' (textarea) in the middle of it.
the form is called 'validate'.
What coding do i have to use to get what ever input is entered into the textarea
into another form(textarea) called 'results' on a different html based page named 'validateresults2.php'?
Plus where do i enter the coding?

I no this is probably a very remedial question for most but not so easy for me!

Any coding help would be much appreciated!

the data will be available in $_GET or $_POST. To see the data, use var_dump(), print_r() and/or var_export()
