How can undefined index errors be avoided in PHP form handling?

Undefined index errors in PHP form handling can be avoided by checking if the form input fields are set using the isset() function before accessing their values. This ensures that the script does not try to access form fields that have not been submitted, preventing undefined index errors. 

if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {
    if(isset($_POST['field_name'])) {
        $field_value = $_POST['field_name'];
        // Process the form data
    } else {
        // Handle the case when the form field is not set
    }
}
