Body
<p>I am currently learning the most basic PHP ever. I have 5 files.</p> <p>index.php:</p> <pre><code><html> <head> <title>Budget Calcule</title> <link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> </head> <body> <h2>Put in your: - </h2> <form action="functions.php" method="post"> <h3>Income</h3> <label>Salary: <input name="salary" type="text" /></label><br /> <h3>Outgoings</h3> <label>Living: <input name="living" type="text" /></label><br /> <label>Insurance: <input name="insurance" type="text" /></label><br /> <label>Communication: <input name="communication" type="text" /></label><br /> <label>Loan: <input name="loan" type="text" /></label><br /> <label>Food & Drink: <input name="foodAndDrink" type="text" /></label><br /> <label>Entertaintment / Shopping: <input name="entertainmentOrShopping" type="text" /></label><br /> <label>Transport: <input name="transport" type="text" /></label><br /> <label>Other: <input name="other" type="text" /></label><br /> <input type="submit" value="Submit" /> </form> </body> </html> </code></pre> <p>this is my functions.php:</p> <pre><code><?php include('variables.php'); if(!($_POST['Submit'])){ if(isset($_POST['salary'])){ header('Location: output.php'); return $_POST['lon']; }else{ echo "All fields are required"; } } ?> </code></pre> <p>this is my variables.php:</p> <pre><code><?php $salary= $_POST['salary']; $living= $_POST['living']; $insurance= $_POST['insurance']; $communication = $_POST['communication']; $loan = $_POST['loan']; $food = $_POST['food']; $entertaintmentOrShopping = $_POST['entertaintmentOrShopping']; $transport = $_POST['transport']; $other= $_POST['other']; ?> </code></pre> <p>this is my output.php file:</p> <pre><code><?php include('outputFunction.php'); ?> <html> <head> <title>Output.php</title> </head> <body> <?php myText(); ?> </body> </html> </code></pre> <p>and last but not least, this is my outputFunction.php file:</p> <pre><code><?php include('variables.php'); function myText(){ echo "Your salary per month is: " . $_POST['salary']; } ?> </code></pre> <p>Now you're thinking "why have he split up his code in different files?" Well first of all, I split the variables from functions.php because I wanted outputFunctions.php to get the variables from variables.php so i could echo my `$_POST['salary']; . The function myText(); outputs the text just fine, but it doesnt output the $_POST['salary'];.</p> <p>I do not know why it doesnt work, I just wonder if you could be my extra eyes and see if I've done some mistake.</p> <p>PS! Don't down vote my question just because you think it's stupid. I am having problem with this issue and been working on it for hours without advancing anywhere.</p>

1. COIt's because you're using a redirect from functions.php to output.php, with the `header()` call. When you do that, $_POST variables aren't passed around.

2. COYeah, `header('Location')` should always be followed by `exit`, but here it is followed by `return`. When you redirect, the PHP should be told to stop executing, since it will start again when the next request is received.

Guidance

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.
