How it works
This script is designed
around a simple idea: a script
frame (form4.php) and multiple flesh-andmuscle scripts on URL with query string.
5.3.1. Frame script
The skeleton here is the form4.php script. It all revolves around using the switch case structure. It starts with defining the function for rendering the compiler (which contains the rendering of the global $_GET ).
In practice the form uses the POST method and so passes information to the $_POST array, the page's conversion content will be passed through the query string of the $GET array.
