<p>I can't get the $_POST['name'] values sent from an html form on my php file. I've seen lots of similar questions but nothing helped. I have lot's of includes so I believe it's a scope issue, but I can't figure it out.</p> <p>index.php</p> <pre><code>print_r($_POST); //Returns nothing, tried other ways too //lot's of variables being defined include 'sql_data_handlers.php'; //instantiating some things </code></pre> <p>sql_data_handlers.php</p> <pre><code>//some functions retrieving data from sql db and finally: include($DOCUMENT_ROOT . "page.html"); </code></pre> <p>page.html</p> <pre><code>//html stuff <?php //Some conditions include($DOCUMENT_ROOT . "comment_form.html"); ?> </code></pre> <p>comment_form.html</p> <pre><code><form action="index.php" name="comment_form" id="comment_form" method="post"> <input type="text" name="name" value="Anonymous" required><br> //lot's of inputs <input type="submit"> </form> </code></pre> <p></p> <p>I used to have <code>action="send_comment.php"</code> but I realized it could be turned into a function so I ctrl+c and adapted <code>send_comments.php</code> to a function on <code>sql_data_handlers.php</code>. The problem is, now I can't get the <code>$_POST</code> values on <code>index.php</code> to use in the function on <code>sql_data_handlers.php</code> (which is included in <code>index.php</code>).</p> <p>I would use <code>action="my_php_function_from_data_handlers.php($args)"</code> if it was possible, but I guess it isn't. btw, I already tried <code>action=""</code>. This may seem pretty messy but this way I only need one .html for the site layout, pages are on the sql and the .php files do all the job.</p> <p>Complete source of all files (pretty big, still working on it): <a href="http://pastebin.com/2nRuCpNx" rel="nofollow">http://pastebin.com/2nRuCpNx</a></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.
