Question

I have this form tag below where the form submits to itself which I want to happen everytime the form is submitted UNTIL the $sessionMinus (which is a number) equals the same number as ($_SESSION[‘initial_count’]) then I want the form to submit to the session_marks2.php. How Can I get that to work?

Below is my current tag:

<form id="QandA" action="<?php echo htmlentities($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); ?>" method="post" onsubmit="return validateForm(this);" >

Below is the if statement for where $sessionMinus equals $_SESSION[‘initial_count’]:

if ($sessionMinus = $_SESSION['initial_count'])

Answer 1

The statement

if ($sessionMinus = $_SESSION['initial_count'])

is always true and should be

if ($sessionMinus === $_SESSION['initial_count'])

your code should be something like

$action = ($sessionMinus === $_SESSION['initial_count']) ? "session_marks2.php" : $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];

and then

action="<?php echo htmlentities($action); ?>"
