I'm looking to get a fairly simple form validated using php, but I dont know where I should start as I'm new to it. Dont really want to do this client side, hence posting here.
I have a few text fields and one checkbox on my yourinfo.php page, which I send to a SQL db upon submission of the form, and then autoforward into the next page. I would like to be able to validate the content of these fields (ie email address is checked for validity) before going into the db.
Any suggestions as to where I might look / books to buy etc?
Thanks!

O'Reilly's "Web Database Applicatins with PHP & MySQL" will probably be a good book for you (if you use MySQL, tht is). It does a good job covering all the basics you'll need to create database driven websites.
