Are there any specific PHP functions or techniques that can help streamline form submission handling and error display?

When handling form submissions in PHP, it is helpful to use built-in functions like isset() to check if form fields are set, and empty() to check if they are not empty. Additionally, using functions like filter_input() can help sanitize and validate user input. To streamline error display, you can use arrays to store and display multiple errors at once, and utilize functions like implode() to concatenate error messages. 

// Example code snippet for handling form submission and error display

$errors = [];

if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
    // Check if form fields are set and not empty
    if (!isset($_POST["username"]) || empty($_POST["username"])) {
        $errors[] = "Username is required";
    }

    if (!isset($_POST["password"]) || empty($_POST["password"])) {
        $errors[] = "Password is required";
    }

    // Display errors
    if (!empty($errors)) {
        echo "<ul>";
        foreach ($errors as $error) {
            echo "<li>$error</li>";
        }
        echo "</ul>";
    }
}
