<button type="submit" name="answer" id="answer" value="answer" style="width:100px; height:100px;"><font size='4'>Calculate Savings</font></button>
</form>
</body>
</html>
PHP page--->
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Savings</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>Savings are:
<?php
if($_POST["answer"])
{
echo "$water + $laundry + $occupants";
}
?>
</p>
</body>
</html>
The result is always + +, the php isnt even attempting to do the equation I am really not seeing what is wrong here
</div>
