Undefined indexes apeeared after submitting the form - php

Question

I have a two step form. create.php and create2.php. Both pages are forms. After first form is filled user presses "Continue" and proceeds to the second form where i pass and store value from first form in hidden inputs. After filling and submitting second form, i want pop up window which means successful submission of the form and inserting all the data into database. It seems that everything is working fine and all data is in database, however i dont get pop up window, what i get is undefined index warning about my hidden inputs.
Ok here is code for create.php:
<form class="formcss" method="post" action="create2.php" id="reportform" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<fieldset style="background-color:white;">
<legend style="font-size: 20px;">New Project</legend>

<label class="tool tool1" for="name" style="margin-top:-8px;">Code of the project</br>e.g. ASD001</label>

include 'verification/verify_form_details2.php';

ob_start();

I'm using another php page to insert data into database. I just don't get what can be a problem. Thanks for any help

Answer 1

Since POST array is not available for first time. Therefore, you are getting this error. If you really need to use those post variables, you should apply a condition in this case to avoid these errors.
I'm here adding for one, you can do the same for remaining.
Try this:
<?php echo isset($_POST['code'])?$_POST['code']:''; ?>
