problem with form data

When you post the HTML form?

Can you show all code for the controller and the view?

View Page

Code:

<?= validation_list_errors() ?>
  <form action="<?=base_url();?>appointment/" method="post" name="rulesForm">
  <div class="form-group mt-3">
  <input type="text" name="name" />
  <input style="height: 14px;" type="checkbox" name="rulescheck" id="rulescheck" required/>
  <label for="rulecheck" class="rule">Agree |</label>
  </div>
  <div class="text-center"><button type="submit" name="rulesSubmit" id="rulesSubmit">Submit</button></div>
  </form>

Controller Page

PHP Code:

<?php

namespace App\Controllers;
use App\Models\Appointments;

class Appointment extends BaseController
{
    public function index()
    {
        return view('pages/kp');
    }
 
 public function rules()
 {
 helper('form');
 $head['title'] = "Rules & Regulations";
 $head['breadcrumb'] = "Rules";
 
 return view('template/header', $head)
 .view('pages/rules')
 .view('template/footer');
 }
 
 public function appointmentForm()
 {
 helper('form');
 $data = $this->request->getPost();
 
 print_r($data);
 }
} 


Route Page

PHP Code:

<?php

namespace Config;
use App\Controllers\Appointment;

// Create a new instance of our RouteCollection class.
$routes = Services::routes();

/*
 * --------------------------------------------------------------------
 * Router Setup
 * --------------------------------------------------------------------
 */
$routes->setDefaultNamespace('App\Controllers');
$routes->setDefaultController('Home');
$routes->setDefaultMethod('index');
$routes->setTranslateURIDashes(false);
$routes->set404Override();
// The Auto Routing (Legacy) is very dangerous. It is easy to create vulnerable apps
// where controller filters or CSRF protection are bypassed.
// If you don't want to define all routes, please use the Auto Routing (Improved).
// Set `$autoRoutesImproved` to true in `app/Config/Feature.php` and set the following to true.
// $routes->setAutoRoute(false);

/*
 * --------------------------------------------------------------------
 * Route Definitions
 * --------------------------------------------------------------------
 */

// We get a performance increase by specifying the default
// route since we don't have to scan directories.
$routes->get('/', 'Home::index');

//coutom routes
$routes->get('contactus', 'Home::contact');
//$routes->get('rules', 'Appointment::rules');
$routes->match(['get', 'post'], 'rules', [Appointment::class, 'rules']);
//$routes->post('appointment', 'Appointment::appointmentForm');
$routes->match(['get', 'post'], 'appointment', [Appointment::class, 'appointmentForm']);
$routes->get('drkpkushwaha', 'Appointment::index');
//$routes->view('this', 'pages/welcome_message');  //directly call view without controller

/*
 * --------------------------------------------------------------------
 * Additional Routing
 * --------------------------------------------------------------------
 *
 * There will often be times that you need additional routing and you
 * need it to be able to override any defaults in this file. Environment
 * based routes is one such time. require() additional route files here
 * to make that happen.
 *
 * You will have access to the $routes object within that file without
 * needing to reload it.
 */
if (is_file(APPPATH . 'Config/' . ENVIRONMENT . '/Routes.php')) {
    require APPPATH . 'Config/' . ENVIRONMENT . '/Routes.php';
} 


I have had issues where there is a trailing '/' on the form action, suggest you try

Code:

<form action="<?= base_url('appointment'); ?>" method="post" name="rulesForm">
