I am new to wordpress.I have a program in which form submission and data insertion are in the same page.
What i want is when data is inserted into the database a "thank you" post page will generate.
I have already used the header function for redirecting but it is not working.Please see the program below.
Do i placed the else statement wrongly?
Along with this i want to know where do i will set the form validation function in this program?
Please help me.
Here is the program
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<style>
input[type=text], select {
width: 100%;
padding: 12px 20px;
margin: 8px 0;
display: inline-block;
border: 1px solid #ccc;
border-radius: 4px;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
input[type=submit] {
width: 100%;
background-color: #4CAF50;

padding: 14px 20px;
