Try this
<?php
if ( $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST' ) {
// Post#1
var_dump($_POST);
// Check conditions...
if ( isset($_POST['next_step']) ) {
switch ( $_POST['next_step'] ) {
case 'step20':
echo "\n\nCustomer Number: (#{$_POST['Cust_Num']})\n\n";
break;
}
}
}
?>
<form method="POST" action="">
<input name="next_step" type="text" value="step20" />
<input type="submit" value="press" />
</form>

Obviously, you never want to output raw input in this manor, but for a quick
test, you should be fine.

works fine when you hit submit. Try to isolate the error by running a
simplified script like this one next time before posting.
Also, you had "pint_r" instead of "print_r" somewhere.
I would also set these in php.ini:
error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED & ~E_STRICT
; OR even
error_reporting = E_ALL & E_DEPRECATED & E_STRICT
; AND
display_errors = On
and correct all errors and warnings if you have time, but even if not...
Question to all: Does this formatting work for you or is it too much,
annoying or anything else bad?

Hello,
I suggest you put default in that switch statement and var_dump the
$_POST.That should be enough for a programmer to pin point what goes wrong.

Dear List -
I have a working program. I made one change in a switch statement,
and it does not work. I'm probably missing something fundamental.
Here are some code SNIPPETS... [please note that all my debug
statements are at the left margin]
Setup...
<?php
session_start();
session_name("STORE");
set_time_limit(2400);
ini_set('display_errors', 'on');
ini_set('display_startup_errors', 'on');
error_reporting(-2);
ini_set('error_reporting', 'E_ALL | E_STRICT');
ini_set('html_errors', 'On');
ini_set('log_errors', 'On');
require '/home/ethan/P/wk.inc'; //password file
$db = "Store";
$cxn =mysqli_connect($host,$user,$password,$db);
if (!$cxn)
{
die('Connect Error (' . mysqli_connect_errno() . ') '
. mysqli_connect_error());
}// no error
if($_REQUEST['welcome_already_seen']!= "already_seen")
show_welcome();
//end setup
function show_welcome() //this is the input screen
{
<snip>
echo " <input type='hidden' name='welcome_already_seen'
value='already_seen'>";
echo " <input type='hidden' name='next_step' value='step20' />";
<snip>
}
//end input screen
//Switch statement
echo 'before';
print_r($_POST); //post#1
switch ( $_POST['next_step'] )
{
case 'step20':
{
pint_r($_POST); //post#2
echo 'step20';
if(!empty($_POST['Cust_Num']))
good();
if(empty($_POST['Cust_Num']))
bad();
break;
} //end step20
<snip>
} //end switch
post#1
beforeArray
(
[Cust_Num] => 123
[Fname] =>
[Lname] =>
[Street] =>
[City] =>
[state] => NY
[Zip] => 10952
[PH1] =>
[PH2] =>
[PH3] =>
[Date] =>
[welcome_already_seen] => already_seen
[next_step] => step20
)
Cust_Num state and Zip are as entered.
The switch statement is never entered, since post#2 is never
displayed, and neither good() or bad() functions are entered.
TIA
Ethan
