I have created an Online Marathon Form where it requires the user to fill in all the available fields prepare. Once it’s done and submitted, the form will be validated to check any error with the submitted form. However, those validations I set didn’t work except only name validation.
I tried to figure the cause for almost 3 days and kept asking people around but they didn’t reply.
I hope anyone can help me solving this error : Validations set failed to work. I must need this Session for my work.

if(isset($_SESSION['pbt1']))

$nameError = $_SESSION['pbt1']['nameError'];
$numberError = $_SESSION['pbt1']['numberError'];
$dateError = $_SESSION['pbt1']['dateError'];
$addressError = $_SESSION['pbt1']['addressError'];
$cityError = $_SESSION['pbt1']['cityError'];
}
?>
