Question

I cant echo the form firstname to the php form so they can confirm the details before submitting the text.

This is in my php script.

<td>First Name</td>
<td>
    <input type="hidden" name="firstname" value=  <?php echo $_POST["firstname"]; ?> /> 
</td> 

However, if i say put <?php echo $_POST["firstname"]; ?> out of the form it will work.

Basically i want the all the form details into another form with the input=hidden, and if it is all correct they can submit this form in the php script to the database.

Your confirm part will like to be something like this:

<td>First Name</td>
<td>
    <?php echo $_POST["firstname"]; ?>
    <input type="hidden" name="firstname" value= "<?php echo $_POST["firstname"]; ?>" /> 
</td> 

And you’d better not echo user post value directly, use htmlspecialchars to convert special characters to HTML entities.
