I am creating a website backed by a database. I have created my forms that collect the information but now i need to read in the input from the form when user clicks submit and process it for mySQL. I am having my form action be a new page but I can't figure out how to read in value from the previous page. My Form code looks like this:
<div data-wrapper-react="true">
<span class="form-sub-label-container" style="vertical-align:top;">
<input type="text" id="first_3" name="q3_fullName3[first]" class="form-textbox validate[required]" size="10" value="" data-component="first" />
<label class="form-sub-label" for="first_3" id="sublabel_first" style="min-height:13px;"> First Name </label>
</span>
When user hits submit the action for this page is connect.php. I am not sure how to read in the value there. I tried this following command:
document.getElementById("first_3").value;
This just displays the code on blank html page for connect.php and not read in the values. The data from the forms needs to be processed into different tables if someone can help with that as well that would be great. Thanks
