set default value as a php variable
Started 14 years ago by roydcarlson | 2 posts |

I have a robust security system on our website. In order for users to use the form I created, I require that they be registered and logged into our website. I would like several of the fields to be pre-populated for the user using the global variables I have setup for them (their name, address, phone, etc). Normally I would simply echo the variable (echo $globalvariable), but when I tried that as the default value in a form field, all that echoed was the $globalvariable, and not the value of the variable. I also tried <?php echo ... ?> but that echoed what I typed in (<?php echo ?>). How do I get machform to display a variable as the default value in a field??????

You can't set a default value from a PHP variable.
However, you can pre-populate a field using this method:
