Formvariables can be easily used in php.
You just refer to the name of the form element used in <input name=".."
...>.
So if you have an element named "email", you can use it on the action
page by refering to the variable $email.

Example:

<form action=control.php method=post>
        <input type=text name=email>
        ...
</form>

And on the action page, here control.php, you use:

...
if ($email != "") { // or you can use isset($email)
        print "field email is not empty.";
}
...

happy hacking
