Posts ($_POST) is used to take information from a form to the next screen (passing it along). You name the feild and then that becomes the name you will call back. For example:

The Name there is quantiy. Therefore when the feild is carried over you can call back the variable using:

$quantity = $_POST['quantity'];

?>

Ensure you use '' ( $_POST['quantity'] ) for statements and either use (int) or take them out for numbers:

Statment

$quantity = $_POST['quantity'];

?>

Number

$quantity = $_POST[quantity];

?>

Also a Number

$quantity = (int)$_POST['quantity'];

?>
