What are some alternative approaches to displaying and confirming user input from a form submission in PHP, apart from directly sending it via email?
When a user submits a form in PHP, instead of directly sending the input via email, an alternative approach is to display the input on a confirmation page for the user to review before final submission. This provides a chance for users to verify their input before it is processed further.
<?php
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
// Process form data
$name = $_POST['name'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
// Display confirmation page with user input
echo "Name: " . $name . "<br>";
echo "Email: " . $email . "<br>";
// Additional processing or database storage can be done here
}
?>
