How can PHP be used to process form data input from HTML files?
To process form data input from HTML files using PHP, you can create a PHP script that receives the form data via the POST method, retrieves the input values using the $_POST superglobal, and then performs any necessary processing or validation on the data.
<?php
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
// Retrieve form data
$name = $_POST["name"];
$email = $_POST["email"];
// Process the data (e.g., validate, sanitize, store in database)
// Redirect to a thank you page or display a success message
header("Location: thank-you.php");
exit();
}
?>
