Setting POST variable without using form
To set the value of a POST variable in PHP, you can use the following code:
<?php
$_POST['variable_name'] = 'variable_value';
This will set the POST variable variable_name
to variable_value
. You can then access this variable in your PHP code using the $_POST array, like this:
<?php
$variable = $_POST['variable_name'];

You can also use the $_POST array to set multiple POST variables at once, like this:
<?php
$_POST['variable_1'] = 'value_1';
$_POST['variable_2'] = 'value_2';
$_POST['variable_3'] = 'value_3';
// etc.
It's important to note that POST variables are only accessible in PHP if they are submitted as part of an HTTP POST request. You can't set POST variables without using a form or some other method to submit an HTTP POST request.
