How can I access information sent through POST on a form?

If you are using a form on your website for instance a contact form that visitors use to get in touch with you, then you will most probably be using post, as in setting the method in your opening form tag to 'post'.

To access the data posted, you use the $_POST array like this:

Imagine you have a form field called 'name' on the form, when the user clicks submit to the post form, you can then access the value like this:

$_POST["name"]; and that's all there is to it!
