you know what they say about a blank screen, *eh?* and what does this have to do with notepad++ ? — Funk Forty Niner, May 19 '16 at 17:34
^ I keep that one handy (edit: which is now the dupe) just for questions like these which is what's going on here with `$_POST['field1'] . '-' . $_POST['field2']`. — Funk Forty Niner, May 19 '16 at 17:35
`isset` can take multiple values. Pass them all into one `isset`... `If multiple parameters are supplied then isset() will return TRUE only if all of the parameters are set. ` -http://php.net/manual/en/function.isset.php — chris85, May 19 '16 at 17:39
FYI `isset` can take multiple parameters so you can do `isset($_POST['model'], $_POST['esn'], ...)` might make it a bit more readable. — ArtisticPhoenix, May 19 '16 at 17:43
