Confirmation page problem

httpnewcomer · Joined: 06 Sep 2009 Posts: 3

On the form of my html file, I want the user to double check if they really want to SEND the information to me.

I want to do it like this:
1) after the user hitting the "SEND" button on my .html page (see below), I will bring him to the confirm.php page (see below).
2) Then he needs to hit "yes" or "no" to confirm his action.

I read some posts here and end up into the following codes. But it doesn't work that the "Status" valuable is not passed to the .php file, i.e. the "echo $_SESSION['info1']" command is not carried out if I hit the "yes" botton. (The echo "Yes"; command works fine.)

Can someone help me? Thanks!

----------------------------------------
.html file
----------------------------------------
<form method="POST" action="./confirm.php" TARGET="_blank">
<input type="radio" name="Status" value="Good">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Send">
</form>

----------------------------------------
confirm.php file
----------------------------------------
<?php
session_start();
$Status = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['Status']));
$_SESSION['info1'] = $_POST['Status'];
?>

<form method="post">
<fieldset>
<legend>Confirmation</legend>
Do you really want to do something?
<input type="submit" name="confirm" value="Yes">
<input type="submit" name="confirm" value="No">
</fieldset>
</form>

<?php
switch($_POST['confirm']) {
case 'Yes':
echo $_SESSION['info1'];
echo "Yes";
break;
case 'No':
echo "No";
break;
}
?>

p.s. I am new in writing html etc. I heard that the double check can be done by using JAVA, but I don't want to use it since some web browser may block it.

If possible, can anyone help me to modify the code above to work or write a code for me using php and html?
