Hi,
as to your new error message:
If goes:
if (condition) statement;
so add the round braces around the condition and PHP
will be happy.
In my reply I referred to vars coming from POST action
as $_POST['var_name_here']. This is an implication of
register_globals = off which in turn is a good idea as a
security precaution. "On" is for backward compatibility.
So
...
If (!IsSet($_POST['title'])) {
// relay the user to the form page. This page
// was not requested from there!
header('location: url_of_your_form_page');
}
else {
$title = $_POST['title'];
if (trim($title) == '') {
// handle error: title is mandatory
}
else {
// do whatever is needed with title
}
}
...
might do the job.
