Simple Form submit question

How to filter a Db with a post variable from submitted form. Or even how to capture post variable form previous page/submit.

I did it using Get variable without submiting the form and using dataview filters but i want to know how to capture the post variables and filter a query. I can’t seem to do it.

thanks.

Just use the $_POST.variablename in the same way you used the $_GET GLOBAL variable

Yes but when i used $Get I have an Input Parameter in the Properties panel with i can populate
With $post i don’t see that.

I’m sure i did something wrong. I’ts my second day with wappler!

No you wouldn’t

With a get parameter it is sent with the query so need to be set in app connect to be sent via the query

With a post variable the value comes from a field in a form so will not appear in the query parameters in app connect

POST variables are form variables

Is it enough that the post variable has same name as form field or do i also enter in the Linked Field. ?

Anyway , i scrapped that idea was talking hours to figure out.

I will use Get and server connect form. It gets the job done.

thanks.

Form field and $_POST must be same name, that’s all which is needed.
