I can't seem to get empty() to check if someone has left
a textarea unanswered in an online form with code like
the following:
<textarea rows=8 cols=50 name=open_why_good_consult>
<?echo $open_why_good_consult?>
</textarea>
if(empty($open_why_good_consult)) {
print "Please fill in why you would be a good consultant";
}
Any ideas? It seems to work for things like this:
<input type=text name=user_name size=8 value="<?echo $user_name?>">
if empty($user_name) {
print "Please fill in a username";
}
I suppose it is because the variable is not getting posted. Is
there a way to post the variable?
Thanks.
John
