POSTING hidden values - richb201 - 12-09-2020
In my form I am setting these hidden values
<input type="hidden" name="email" value=<?php $emailString?>/>
<input type="hidden" name="campaign" value=<?php $campaignString?>/>
<input type="hidden" name="taxyear" value=<?php $dateString?> />
and then I submit it to a function in the controller. This is the code that runs in the controller
$campaign=$_POST["campaign"];
$email=$_POST["email"];
$taxyear=$_POST["taxyear"];
But when I take a look at $campaign, $email, and $taxyear , once the form is submitted, they are all "/". Why?

Maybe because the value is in double quotes.
value=""

You can try something like this:
Code:
<input type="hidden" name="email" value="<?php $emailString?>">Enclose the php code in double quotes.
