Very nice answer Mark, some of us newbies get lost in the fray here so *I*
really appreciate when someone takes the time to show how and explain the

Here is some working code for you:
Your name:
Your age:
action.php:
Hi .You are
window.alert('You must complete both fields');
You would probably find
Perhaps you could test the string length using strlen() and then if 0 dont

the SQL statement rather a msg to the user.
if((strlen($searchtext))>0){ issue sql }else{echo'enter a search string you

or you could use java scripts to validate the form 1st.

is it because your ISP has register_globals turned off?
if so this may correct the problem:
function handleform()
{
global $_POST['comments'];
global $_POST['yourname'];
global $_POST['youremail'];
$comments=stripslashes($_POST['comments']);
$yourname=stripslashes($_POST['yourname']);

Hi
It sounds like magic_quotes_gpc is set to On in your php.ini file.. change
this value to Off if you wish to handle escaping of characters yourself.
Secondly, it's advisable to research nl2br()

Hi,
I am having the same problem, and can reproduce it with a simple test
script. When a user name and password are entered, the phpinfo output shows
that it is a POST method with an empty _SERVER[argv] array. I have verified
that register_globals is set to "on" in my php.ini. My test program
Or change the $submit to $_GET["submit"]
if (isset($_GET["submit"])) {
mysql_query("INSERT INTO $ntable VALUES
('','$title','$posted_by','$entry',NULL)");
print("$title\n");

print("$entry\n");
