Hey I have a database that contains information about different countries. I also have a html page where you can submit information about countries. Can someone help me to write a code that says that the information has been stored in the database instead of it just redirecting to a blank page?
Here is my html page where you submit information:
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Sett inn land</title>
</head>
<body>
<form action="geoinn.php" method="get">
Land: <input type="text" name="navn"> <br>
Hovedstad: <input type="text" name="hovedstad"> <br>
Areal: <input type="text" name="areal"> <br>
Folketall: <input type="text" name="folketall"> <br>
<input type="submit" value="Legg inn informasjon">
</form>
</body>
</html>
And here is the page that you are redirected to when you click submit on the other page. This is the page where I want to have a code saying either that "The information has been stored in our database" or that it has not:
<?php
$tjener = "localhost";
$brukernavn = "root";
$passord ="";
$database ="Geografi";
$kobling = mysqli_connect($tjener,$brukernavn,$passord,$database);
$kobling->set_charset("utf8");
?>
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Geografi</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
$land = $_GET["navn"];
$hovedstad = $_GET["hovedstad"];
$areal = $_GET["areal"];
$folketall = $_GET["folketall"];
$sql ="INSERT INTO land (navn,hovedstad, areal, folketall) VALUES('$land','$hovedstad','$areal', '$folketall')";
mysqli_query($kobling, $sql);
mysqli_close($kobling);
?>
</body>
</html>
