Here's the guessing script, they guess a number and checks if they are right or wrong.. CODE <form method="guess.php?action=yes"> <input type="text" name="t_guess"> <br> <input type="submit" value="Guess"> <?php if($action==yes){ //have the number that they are suppose to guess... $guess=14; //end if($t_guess==$guess){ print "Good job! Guess was right!"; }else{ print "Guess was wrong! Try again!"; } } ?> Thats it

Well, that is a nice little script. I can see this being useful for people new to PHP and the like. Although this is a very simple script and it is not intended to be too complicated for beginners, I will go ahead and say that this could be a valuable resource to have, just for reference.

If you really want to guess a number, you should use php's rand() function. Look at www.php.net/rand for more information. For example, if you want someone to guess a random number between 1 and 20, replace $guess=14; with $guess=rand(1,20);. The new script would be:Note that I have made some replacements. because method can only be post and action, and the target has to be set with action. I also replacedbecause your code would return an error without single our double quotes. I also replacedbecause now it checks for a post argument and arguments posted via the url, get arguments, aren't valid as input.

Hmm, that's nice, not too advance, I don't see much practicality, but it's a good tutorial for some basic php though.
