PHP and HTML interact a lot: PHP can generate HTML, and HTML can pass information to PHP.
PHP $_POST is a PHP super global variable which is used to collect form data after submitting an HTML form with method="post". $_POST is also widely used to pass variables.
Open your web browser and type your localhost address followed by '\form1. php'. Output: It will open your form like this, asked information will be passed to the PHP page linked with the form (action=”form2. php”) with the use of the POST method.
on IIS change in the form: method="post" to method="POST" <-- UPPERCASE should solve your issue.
Anyway what about the apache? and PHP version around just 5, flat five :) 5.3.5 on IIS for the beginner? sounds like to get the Mount Everest by night without gloves
