I making a PHP script which is powered by a POST request mainly, and it shows an HTML form which is like a command prompt, how can I simulate the text adding? I mean something like this (Mac OS X Terminal):
term

This is my code:

HTML:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="es">
<head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
    <title>Terminal</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css" />

</head>
<body>
<?php
include("co.php");
echo $prompt;

?>

</body>
</html>

PHP:

<?php
$command=$_POST['command'];
echo "<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang=\"es\">
<head>
    <meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\">
    <title>Terminal</title>
    <link rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"style.css\" type=\"text/css\" />

</head>";

$prompt .= "<header><p>Today is: ".date("M d")." of ".date("o")."</p><p class=\"command\"><label><form method=\"post\" action=\"".$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']."\" autocomplete=OFF>www@".$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'].":~$><input name=\"command\" type=\"text\" id=\"command\" size=\"40\" maxlength=\"500\" autofocus></label></form></p></header>";

$commandexp = explode(" ", $command);

if($commandexp[0] === "echo") {
    $prompt .= $prompt.$commandexp[1].$prompt;
    echo $prompt;
} else {
    echo "command not found";
}
?>

Thanks in advance 🙂

    Add a textbox field with no border and transparent background at the end of your command lines

    and when user hits “enter”, it sends the post request and refresh the list.
