The PHP form required field is very useful for all Web Pages. Whenever any user entered value in a webpage like login, registration, search product, change password etc.

// variables are defined....

$stu_name=" ";
$stu_name_display=" ";
$stu_email=" ";
$stu_address=" ";
$stu_email_display=" ";
$stu_address_display=" ";

// when click on the submit button

if(isset($_REQUEST["btn_submit"]))
{
// check student name is entered or not(empty)....
if (empty($_POST["txt_name"]))
{
$stu_name = "Please enter Name...";
}
else
{
$stu_name_display =$_POST["txt_name"];
}
// check student_email id is entered or not….
if (empty($_POST["txt_email"]))
{
$stu_email = "Please Enter Email Id..";
}
else
{
$stu_email_display =$_POST["txt_email"];
}
// check student address is entered or not….
if (empty($_POST["txt_address"]))
{
$stu_address = "Please Enter Address...";
}
else
{
$stu_address_display =$_POST["txt_address"];
}
}
