    Default Calculate area of a rectangle?

    the idea is that the function to calculate the area to be used inside the function perimeter, so that the perimeter function handles all printing.

    This is what I've done but it's not the same as what I have mentioned above.
    What Should I do?


    This is what I want to do

    Create a method called "Area ()" that calculates the area of a rectangle.
    Call the method "Area ()" method from within "perimeter ()", submit
    length and width as an argument to the method "Area ()" and use these to
    calculate the area. Modify Approach "perimeter () "so that it prints the perimeter
    and area when the user presses the button "CALCULATE". No printing will be done in
    Approach "Area () "


    PHP Code:
    <body>

        

        

    <h1>PHP-sida 4</h1>

        

        

    <form action="php4.php" method="post">

        

        

        

    <p>Längd: <input type="text" name="length" size="20" /></p>

        

        

        

    <p>Bredd: <input type="text" name="width" size="20" /></p>

        

        

        

    <p><input type="submit" value="CALCULATE" name="calc" /></p>

        

        

    </form>




    <?php



    if (isset($_POST['calc']))
    {

        

    $length$_POST['length'];

        

    $width$_POST['width'];

        

    echo 
    "length:" $length"<br><br>";

        

    echo 
    "width:" $width"<br><br>";

        



    function 
    perimeter($length$width)
    {

    return  
    2* ($length$width);

    }
    $perimeterperimeter($length$width);

    echo 
    "perimeter:" $perimeter"<br>""<br>";

        


    function 
    area($length$width)
    {

        

    return 
    $length$width;
    }
    $area area($length$width);
    echo 
    "area:" $area ;

    }
     
    ?>



        

    </body>

    Looks like you got all that already.

    Is this a homework assignment?
