    <p>I am new to php and form development and here's what I am trying to achieve:</p> <p>Firstly i have a simple form to input just two text values:</p> <pre><code>Form1 &lt;br&gt; &lt;form action="gather.php" method="post"&gt; Catalog: &lt;input type="text" name="folderName" maxlength="50"&gt; &lt;br&gt; File Name: &lt;input type="text" name="fileName" maxlength="50"&gt; &lt;br&gt; &lt;input type="submit" name="formSubmit" value="Submit"&gt; &lt;/form&gt; </code></pre> <p>And now I have the second file called gather.php where i get theese two lines and use them to count files inside catalog etc.</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php if(isset($_POST['formSubmit'])){ $folderName = $_POST['folderName']; $fileName = $_POST['fileName']; $numberOfImages = count(glob($folderName . "/*.jpg")); for($i = 1; $i &lt;= $numberOfImages; $i++){ echo "&lt;br&gt;&lt;input type=\"text\" name=\"imie" . $i . "\"&gt;&lt;br/&gt;\n"; echo "&lt;img src=\"" . $folderName . "/0" . $i . ".jpg\" height=\"50px\" width=\"50px\"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;\n"; } echo "\n&lt;br&gt;" . $folderName . "&lt;br&gt;" . $fileName . "\n"; } ?&gt; &lt;br&gt; Final form &lt;br&gt; &lt;form action="build.php" method="post"&gt; &lt;input type="submit" name="finalSubmit" value="Submit"&gt; &lt;/form&gt; </code></pre> <p>And this should get me to build.php file which looks more less like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php if(isset($_POST['finalSubmit'])){ //loop and other stuff $temp = $_POST['imie1']; echo $temp; } ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>So the thing is that in this final file I'd like to get all the data that was put into text fields in the gather.php file. But I get the undefined index error on build.php saying there's nothing in the $_POST['imie1']. Can you tell me why is that? Is tehre a way to get this data from second file to the third file? </p> <p>Edit: thx for the answers, as I can accept only 1 and multiple are the same I choose the user with least rep just to support her :)</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
