Not exactly. PHP processes the remainder of the file too, it just doesn't find any PHP code to execute therein. It does find some text to output, and it outputs it. That text happens to be a form.

Now I see. Just like in normal HTML processing a request to a URL which is an HTML page, sends the HTML markup back to the client. My PHP page is a normal HTML page with PHP processing embedded in it. Hit me on the head and wake me up <g>.

How does one stop PHP from outputting data in a PHP file outside of the PHP tags ? Hopefully there is a technique for that. can I just 'exit' in the PHP processing code in order to do that ? It seems that should work and I will try it.

In my case I am using the form data just to process the request and not to be sent back to the client, especially as a form itself is not a complete HTML page.
