Question

Hi i wanted to make registration form.
but i don’t know how to return data if the data failed after i click submit.
the data became empty so i wanted to restore before user click submit.

 <form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="doregister.php">
 <input type="text" name="txtnama" id="txtnama" />
 <textarea name="txtalamat" id="txtalamat" cols="30" rows="5"></textarea>
 <input type="submit" name="txtsubmit" id="txtsubmit" value="Submit" />
 <input type="reset" name="txtreset" id="txtreset" value="Reset" />
 </form>

here the picture:

Thanks in advance for any help, and I’m really sorry if this has been asked before.

You have to put back the posted values:

<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="doregister.php">
  <input type="text" name="txtnama" id="txtnama"<?php echo (isset($_POST['txtnama'])) ? ' value="'.$_POST['txtnama'].'"' : '') ?>" />
  <textarea name="txtalamat" id="txtalamat" cols="30" rows="5"><?php echo (isset($_POST['txtalamat'] ? $_POST['txtalamat'] : '')) ?></textarea>
  <input type="submit" name="txtsubmit" id="txtsubmit" value="Submit" />
  <input type="reset" name="txtreset" id="txtreset" value="Reset" />
</form>

If doregister.php is another page, you should check the values in the current page then redirect to doregister.php if ok.
