Edtitng Variables

Im makeing a front end for a countdown script. What I would like to do Is have a form with the current settings displayed in the appropiate boxes (called from variables) I got that part down. Icant figure out how to change the values of the variable so when I hit submit it saves them. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Ryan

You'd have to use javascript to to change the values automatically. or manipulate the values with PHP before you print them into the boxes.

If the problem is how to actually save the variables, i don't think i have enough info. are you putting them into a database, file, etc??

Whatever the form elements are named become variables in the 'action' file where the form is submitted to. if you have:
<form method="post" action="analyze.php3">
<input type="text" name="job" value="<?php echo $inputed_value; ?>">
</form>

Then in analyze.php3, you can access the whatever was in the text box by the variable $job, whether it was the inputed value you said you can already put there, or whatever you changed it too.


Maybe no help, but that's my 2 cents....
