I have form, which builds a rather large output setup in various elements, based on how the form is filled out. I can post the whole code, but i think this makes it easier to understand, what I am trying to do.
Let's say I have form, with one input text field called 'notes'.
In this example, we pretend i have entered "Hello World!" in 'notes'.
When the form is posted, the value entered into 'notes' is echoed within some elements:
<?php
echo '<div class="bon" id="bon">';
if (empty($_POST['notes'])) {
// Echo nothing
} else {
echo '<div class="bonHr"></div>';
echo '<div class="bonField">';
echo '<span>' . nl2br($_POST['notes']) . '</span>';
echo '</div>';
}
echo '</div>';
?>
And that is fine. Now I want to store the value in mySQL - I know how to do that. Problem is I want to store the value including the elements around it, into a mysql textfield.
So what I really want to store is everything the contains, in this case:
<div class="bon" id="bon">
<div class="bonHr"></div>
<div class="bonField">
<span>Hello World!</span>
</div>
</div>
How can I do this??
The reason why I need to do this, is that the output varies alot. So please help me to figure out how I can take a "dump" of the output, and throw it into mySQL...
