HTML/PHP - default input value

Question

I have a post php form and a set of inputs:

1. Your Name
2. Your Last Name
3. My Name

Every input looks the same, only the names change

Answer 1

You could use my tiny library ValueResolver in this case, for example:

$default = ValueResolver::resolve(get_option('your_name'), '');

and don't forget to use namespace use LapaLabs\ValueResolver\Resolver\ValueResolver;

There are also ability to typecasting, for example if your variable's value should be integer, so use this:

$id = ValueResolver::toInteger('6 apples', 1); // returns 6
$id = ValueResolver::toInteger('There are no apples', 1); // returns 1 (used default value)
