I'm creating a basic PHP calculator that lets you enter two values and chose your operator then displays the answer. Everything is working fine except it's not outputting the answer to the browser.
Here are the codes for my html and PHP files:
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Calculator</title>
</head>
<body>
<form method="post" attribute="post" action="disp_form.php">
<p>First Value:<br/>
<input type="text" id="first" name="first"></p>
<p>Second Value:<br/>
<input type="text" id="second" name="second"></p>
<input type="radio" name="group1" id="add" value="add" checked="true"><p>+</p><br/>
<input type="radio" name="group1" id="subtract" value="subtract"><p>-</p><br/>
<input type="radio" name="group1" id="times" value="times"><p>x</p><br/>
<input type="radio" name="group1" id="divide" value="divide"><p>/</p><br/>
<p></p>
<button type="submit" name="answer" id="answer" value="answer">Calculate</button>
</form>
</body>
</html>
PHP file:
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Answer</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>The answer is:
<?php
if($_POST['group1'] == add) {
echo "$first + $second";
}
else if($_POST['group1'] == subtract) {
echo "$first - $second";
}
else if($_POST['group1'] == times) {
echo "$first * $second";
}
else($_POST['group1'] == divide) {
echo "$first / $second";
}
?>
</p>
</body>
</html>
