a way to retrive input field name value

[eluser]harrywilson[/eluser]
for example:

<input type="text" name="myText" value="<?php echo $this->name;?>" />

so the value will become myText.

is there such a function or way to do this?

thanks

Code:

<input type="text" name="myText" value="<?php echo set_value('myText', 'Default value'); ?>" />

The first parameter says that it will fill the input with the value of the user entered after form submit. Second param says if the user has not filled the form with anything, give it a default value of 'Default value'.

The first param is required, second is optional.

But as the guy above me says, read the userguide. This is clearly documented there.
