I included the var_dump because I keep getting my "Please fill in all required boxes." error. When I look through the dump, there are no strings without a value. I am very confused, where is the disconnect?

var_dump:

Please fill in all required boxes. array(38) { ["lastname"]=> string(4) "test" ["firstname"]=> string(4) "test" ["initial"]=> string(1) "t" ["streetaddress"]=> string(8) "123 test" ["addressline2"]=> string(4) "test" ["city"]=> string(9) "testville" ["state"]=> string(10) "test state" ["zip"]=> string(5) "12345" ["email"]=> string(13) "test@test.com" ["youth_area"]=> string(3) "123" ["youth_phone"]=> string(7) "1234566" ["month"]=> string(2) "21" ["day"]=> string(2) "21" ["year"]=> string(4) "2121" ["grade"]=> string(2) "12" ["gender"]=> string(4) "Male" ["guardian_first"]=> string(9) "test test" ["guardian_last"]=> string(9) "test test" ["areacode"]=> string(3) "123" ["cellphone"]=> string(7) "1231231" ["parent_email"]=> string(13) "test@test.com" ["emergency_contact_1"]=> string(9) "test test" ["emergency_contact_1_areacode"]=> string(3) "123" ["emergency_contact_1_phone"]=> string(7) "1231231" ["emergency_contact_2"]=> string(10) "test testy" ["emergency_contact_2_areacode"]=> string(3) "123" ["emergency_contact_2_ph one"]=> string(7) "1232132" ["home_church"]=> string(11) "church test" ["church_areacode"]=> string(3) "321" ["church_phone"]=> string(7) "6548976" ["contact_person"]=> string(12) "tester tests" ["special_needs"]=> string(13) "none. testing" ["shirt_size"]=> string(2) "XL" ["roommate"]=> string(4) "none" ["satellite1"]=> string(5) "drama" ["satellite2"]=> string(6) "photo1" ["satellite3"]=> string(10) "volleyball" ["submit"]=> string(6) "Submit" }

you missed an underscore in the if:

 if ($_POST['firstname'] == "" ||

the $_POST['shirt size'] should be shirt_size.
^


This happened to you because your approach is not elegant, that huge If is nasty nasty nasty xD.

You should have a look to foreach() learning to loop through arrays. Also have a look to empty() and isset() in the php documentation, those are your first friends for validating.


How was it made:

Basicly to search your error I copy pasted your if clause, and the var_dumped array, used some regex magic on them so they became valid php arrays:

$arr = array("lastname"=>"test", "firstname"=>"test", "initial"=>"t", "streetaddress"=>"123 test", "addressline2"=>"test", "city"=>"testville", "state"=>"test state", "zip"=>"12345", "email"=>"test@test.com", "youth_area"=>"123", "youth_phone"=>"1234566", "month"=>"21", "day"=>"21", "year"=>"2121", "grade"=>"12", "gender"=>"Male", "guardian_first"=>"test test", "guardian_last"=>"test test", "areacode"=>"123", "cellphone"=>"1231231", "parent_email"=>"test@test.com", "emergency_contact_1"=>"test test", "emergency_contact_1_areacode"=>"123", "emergency_contact_1_phone"=>"1231231", "emergency_contact_2"=>"test testy", "emergency_contact_2_areacode"=>"123", "emergency_contact_2_phone"=>"1232132", "home_church"=>"church test", "church_areacode"=>"321", "church_phone"=>"6548976", "contact_person"=>"tester tests", "special_needs"=>"none. testing", "shirt_size"=>"XL", "roommate"=>"none", "satellite1"=>"drama", "satellite2"=>"photo1", "satellite3"=>"volleyball", "submit"=>"Submit");
$arr2 = array('firstname', 'lastname', 'streetaddress', 'city', 'state', 'zip', 'email', 'month', 'day', 'year', 'grade', 'gender', 'guardian_first', 'guardian_last', 'areacode', 'cellphone', 'emergency_contact_1', 'emergency_contact_1_areacode', 'emergency_contact_1_phone', 'emergency_contact_2', 'emergency_contact_2_areacode', 'emergency_contact_2_phone', 'shirt size', 'satellite1', 'satellite2', 'satellite3', 'youth_area', 'youth_phone');

Next time please use var_export() so you output a valid php array and people can just copypaste it!!

Then i used this loop to find out if they matched:

foreach($arr2 as $k=>$v){
    if(!array_key_exists($v, $arr)){
        echo "$v not in array 1 <br/>";
    }
}

Output: shirt size not in array 1

Enjoy!

<?php 
    if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
         $firstname = $_POST['firstname'];
         $lastname  = $_POST['lastname'];

         if (empty($firstname == '' || $lastname == '')) {
             echo "empty";
         }
    }

?>

Or somthing like this :

// Required field names
$required = array('login', 'password', 'confirm', 'name', 'phone', 'email');

// Loop over field names, make sure each one exists and is not empty
$error = false;
foreach($required as $field) {
  if (empty($_POST[$field])) {
    $error = true;
  }
}

if ($error) {
  echo "All fields are required.";
} else {
  echo "Proceed...";
}

Please use

  if(empty($_POST['firstname']) && $_POST['firstname'])

instead of :

  if($_POST['firstname']=="")

for each of the field.Your array is very big you may have missed any field , the empty() will check whether it has been set or not & next statement will check it is nonzero. for more about empty()

hope it will help!
