    <p>I am sending form data through POST, but the corresponding POST variables are not set, and do not.</p> <p>Also, when I store POST data into local PHP variables, I seem to be unable to use those variables. (Once I resolve the first issue, I have a feeling I will be able to user the variables too.)</p> <p>My error messages output by the second page (see below) is:</p> <pre><code>Notice: Undefined variable: postUsername in (...somepath)\scripts\create-member.php on line 10 </code></pre> <p>(Form page) :</p> <pre><code>&lt;form action="scripts/create-member.php" method="POST"&gt; &lt;input type="text" name"username" value="" placeholder="User Name"&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;input type="password" name"password" value="" placeholder="Password"&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;input type="password" name"passwordConfirm" value="" placeholder="Confirm Password"&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;!-- ?type email or type text --&gt; &lt;input type="email" name"email" value="" placeholder="Email" autofocus&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;input type="submit" name="submitRegistration" value="Register!"&gt; &lt;/form&gt; </code></pre> <p>(Second page) scripts\create-member.php:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php //!proper way to declare variables obtained from POST. // Data from form "register.php" if ( isset($_POST['username']) ) { $postUsername = $_POST['username']; } echo $postUsername; // &lt;-- this is line 10 </code></pre> <p>?></p> <p>I've tried using isset() for the submit button too, but that didn't solve the problem. I've simplified the code by a lot here, and ran it testing it too.</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.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
