Get the value of the textbox from 1 form to another form in php

Question

I am trying to get the value from 1 form to another in php. In form1 there r fields such as name,email etc. After the submitting the form it goes to another form where name,email value as to display from the form1. But in my form name,email doesnt display in form2. Here is the code.

form1.php

  <form method="post" name="XIForm" id="XIForm" action="registration.php">
        <p><label>Name</label><br/><input type="text" name="fname" id="fname" value="" style="margin-left:30px;" placeholder="Name"></p>
        <p><label>Email</label><br/><input type="text" name="email" id="email" value="" style="margin-left:30px;" placeholder="Email"></p>

<?php
    include_once 'db.php';
  if(isset($_POST['XISubmit'])) {

         $fname= mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['fname']);
        $email=$_POST['email'];
        $check_email="select * from reg where email='$email'";
        $run1=mysql_query($check_email);

        if(mysql_num_rows($run1)>0){
        echo "<script>alert('email already exits in our database. Please try with Another!')</script>";
        exit(0);
        }
     else{
              $query = "INSERT INTO reg(fname,username,password,cpassword,email) VALUES ('$fname','$username','$password', '$cpassword','$email')";
              $run11=mysql_query($query);
    $to=$_POST['email'];         
   if($run11){
    $_SESSION['sess_user4']=$username;
    echo "<script>alert('Registration Successful')</script>";
    echo "<script>window.open('attachfile.php', '_self')</script>";
    }
    }   
    }
    ?>

Form2.php

<form method="post" name="XIForm" action="attach.php" enctype="multipart/form-data" onSubmit="return validate();">
  <h4 style="color:#6f4617;margin-left:10px;font-size:15px;font-family:Book Antiqua;color:#168eb6">&nbsp;&nbsp;<b>Welcome <?=$_SESSION['sess_user4']?>  </b>
<br/>

<label>Confirm Name</label><br/>
<input type="text" name="name1" id="name1" style="margin-left:30px;" placeholder="Name" value="<?php if(isset($_GET['fname'])) { echo $_GET['fname']; } ?>"  />
<br/><br/>

no.I need to get the value of name which is posted in form1 in form2. Form2 performs some other functions such as attaching the file and save it in db. — user89080098, Jul 05 '16 at 09:05

try this or more PHP Header Location with parameter

//after submitting form
header("Location: form2.php?fname=".$fname);
//then
 isset($_GET['fname']){
        echo $fname;

  }

You are using echo $_GET['fname']; but you are sending a post through your form?
