How to process HTML form data in PHP

In this lesson I show you how to process HTML form data in PHP.

Many websites include HTML forms and encourage users to interact with the site e.g. forums, logins, comment boxes etc

Once a user has entered details into a HTML form we need some way of processing that form data.

This lesson covers a very basic example but should provide you with enough details to be able to process some simple data.

Note that I have not taken in account any security measurements as this in just an introduction to form processing.
