@Qchmqs *facepalm* duh. Thanks!
Wait. You mean hidden form elements to ensure certain vars are sent to PHP is a valid use of an input element and not a hack? 😮
Edit: I just realized how stupid this comment is. Don't mind me, just absent minded and dumb today. -
vringar16638y@corscheid I know we aren't on SO, but what is the proper way of doing smt like this?
I just recently started using PHP and had no idea what else to do.😔 -
@vringar I'm in the same boat as you. I'm not a professional web developer. I only code as a hobby for now until I learn more and get into the field

sgoten708yJust use type hidden, will not be visible and when you submit the form the back end will receive just like the others inputs

@sgoten I've just implemented exactly that. Somehow I overlooked the existence of hidden type input elements.
