@NogDogJul 22.2014 — #Yeah, unless you're implementing some sort of REST application where you need to know what the HTTP request type was, I'd just look for the $_POST (or whatever) elements of interest. If you are trying to be "RESTful", then it would make more sense to have something like:
server request method if statement not working
this totally doesn’t make sense but the following php…
[code=php]
if($_SERVER[‘REQUEST_METHOD’] == “POST”){
//code
}else{
echo $_POST[‘username’];
}
and the following html when submitted with the username ‘thepulsiphyer’
[code=html]
<form action=’login.php’ method=’post’ enctype=”text/plain” class=’login’>
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<label>USERNAME</label>
</td>
<td>
<input type=’text’ name=’username’>
</td>
<td>
<label>PASSWORD</label>
</td>
<td>
<input type=’password’ name=’pass’>
</td>
<td>
<input type=’submit’ value=’LOGIN’>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
spits out this:
thepulsiphyer
could this possible make any less sense than it does? any ideas for how to make the condition pass?
