@MsKoko144 Starting a tiny bit of programming knowledge, the basics took me a week or so with some of these video tutorials.

From that to proper (OO) software design principles, about a year and a couple of books, and I'm still learning.

Simple question, programmers :

How long did it take you to learn PHP ?

@MrDemeDevdariani Hi! Have you solved it? I got the same error too! T.T

[MlleKnobs]

@dogonnogod hey, thanks for the code. but I'm getting a syntax error :\ can you have a look at it, please?

[sushantt2099]

@dust103194 append $_POST['submit'] with @

code will look like: if(@$_POST['submit']) {

[dogonnogod]

To comply with newer versions of xampp, which includes the newer versions of php you have to do something like this everywhere you have this problem:

if (isset($_GET['name'])){ 

$name = $_GET['name']; }

name being whatever index is needed.

[dogonnogod]

Newer versions of xampp(like 1.7.4 or newer) seem to have this problem with a lot of notices of undefined indexes and variables. Versions of 1.7.2 and earlier were not as strict and many coding examples used the older versions. You either have to go to php.ini file and make your error_reporting look like this: error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_DEPRECATED to ignore the notices or you have to add extra code to comply with the newer versions..I will put that example on another comment.
