silex passing form data to another page? - php

Question

I'm really new to silex and symfony. This is my first foray into silex. I've got code that created my form in my app.php file from a little hacking and copying and pasting from documentation.
Now how do i pass this data to another page?
I would like to create a page that just dumps the post/get array to give me an idea how to pass around get/post variables.
Here's part of my app file:
<?php
/** /src/app.php */
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Response;
/**
* Register new application
*/
$app = new Application();
// skip to the form part ...
$app->match('/', function (Request $request) use ($app) {
// some default data for when the form is displayed the first time
$data = array(
'name' => 'Your name',
'email' => 'Your email',
);
$form = $app['form.factory']->createBuilder('form', $data)
->add('name')
->add('email')
->add('gender', 'choice', array(
'choices' => array(1 => 'male', 2 => 'female'),
'expanded' => true,
))
->getForm();
if ('POST' == $request->getMethod()) {
$form->bindRequest($request);
if ($form->isValid()) {
$data = $form->getData();
// do something with the data
// redirect somewhere
return $app->redirect('completed');
}
}
// display the form
return $app['twig']->render('index.html', array('form' => $form->createView()));
});
Would i then create a page like so?
<?php // app.php
$app->match('complete') use function ($app) {
// sorry psuedocode
foreach ($REQUEST as $key=> $var) {
echo "$key: $var";
}
}

You could try using a forward. http://silex.sensiolabs.org/doc/usage.html#fowards
// where params is the values from your POST
$subRequest = Request::create('/otherpage', 'GET', $params);
return $app->handle($subRequest, HttpKernelInterface::SUB_REQUEST);
