    <p>I have made a form for a company website that the user will populate with personal info. I want to use php to handle these values and then render them as a table that can be printed. I have done this before but only for forms where everything is filled in. I want to make this one to where if the user decides to leave a field blank then you will not see it in the php rendered page. I will post a small example below for reference to help with my issue, as of now I have no idea where to start.</p> <p>Example form...</p> <pre><code>&lt;form action="post"&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;input type="text" id="name" name="name"&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;input type="text" id="phone" name="phone"&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;input type="text" id="job" name="job"&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/form&gt; </code></pre> <p>In this example form I am gathering name, phone number, and occupation. At the bottom I would have a button to submit the info. A php doc will then handle the values and render them in a table set up like this...(assume I $_POST the variables above this table.)</p> <pre><code>'&lt;table&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt;Name:' .$name. '&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;Phone:' .$phone. '&lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt;Job:' .$job. '&lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/table&gt;' </code></pre> <p>This works fine however if the customer decides NOT to give there phone number it looks like this...</p> <p>Name: Alex</p> <p>Phone: </p> <p>Job: Fireman</p> <p>What I need to do is make it to where if they DO fill out the phone number it will show it however if they do not I need it to look like this...</p> <p>Name: Alex</p> <p>Job: Fireman</p> <p>My actual form is very long however I thought this example would be enough for someone to help me get started, thanks in advance for your feedback.</p>

    1. COThis is simple. Just use an if statement to check to see if the variable has a value. If it doesn't, don't display that portion of HTML.

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.
