You have 2 problem:




  1. You send submitted form to review.php, so you should read form data in review.php

  2. You did not set form method. As default method is GET, but you read $_POST variable. (What is the default form HTTP method?)


So you should change index.php as follow:



<?php 
session_start();
$connect = mysqli_connect('localhost','root','root','review');
if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
$id = $_POST['id'];
$_SESSION['name'] = $id;
}
?>
