I also added some form validation to make sure that the user will type something in our text field rather than it leave a black value in our text field. I hope you will find our program useful in your learning PHP programming.
If you have some questions please send me an email at jakerpomperada@yahoo.comand jakerpomperada@gmail.com.
People here in the Philippines who wish to contact me can reach me at my mobile number 09173084360.
Thank you very much and Happy Productive Programming.
