I just learned this simple method on how to use functions to combine two values from a form. First we create ourselves a simple POST form CODE <form method="POST">
Name: <input type="text" name="nickname">
Location: <input type="text" name="location">
<input type="submit" value="Input">
</form> Now we add this php to that same file CODE <?php
$nick = $_POST['nickname'];
$location = $_POST['location'];
function information($nick, $location){
echo 'My nick is '.ucfirst($nick).'<br>My location is '.$location;
}
information($nick, $location);
?> that code is similar to this one CODE <?php
$nick = $_POST['nickname'];
$location = $_POST['location'];
function information($nick, $location){
return 'My nick is '.ucfirst($nick).'<br>My location is '.$location;
}
$combine = information($nick, $location);
echo $combine;
?> It's up to you to decide which one to use  And that is it. I really find this code quite useful for understanding functions in PHP. Hope it does the same for you. (here's the example)EDIT: Edited form as truefusion said below

QUOTE(matak @ Apr 14 2007, 02:02 PM)  CODE <form action="<?php $PHP_SELF; ?>" method="POST"> If i'm not mistaken, you can do without the action="<?php $PHP_SELF; ?>" part since it'll be loading the same page. That is, CODE <form method="POST">
