Hi,
I am working on a website for a promotion that uses PHP to verify data against a sql database. I have a very simple "portal" page where a user enter an ID and the php verifies the existence of that ID against the database and if found allows the user to continue. It also reads some info about the user (name, email, etc) and puts it into a session variable to be displayed on the next page and to be used later.
I decided to use form builder to build a new order form and want to either (A) verify user from the form builder form or (B) receive the session variable for display on the form builder page and use later when writing the order to the sql database.
Is this possible? If so, how can I accomplish it without breaking the form?
Entry form is here: http://anna.jaxhost.net (no frills right now.. just a box to enter data) Use test ID of "0" to get through the verification.
I would like to store the session variables (actually already done) and display them on the resulting form where you currently see the employee ID and name text boxes.
Data verification using php/sql...
This can be done. The best way I have found was to write my own formname.php to process the data and only use the form builder to develop the html.
Then you can go into the form html after export and add the appropriate includes of php and mysql.

I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.
