Why is PHP echoing post with string count?

Posted on March 7, 2016

For some reason when I use the POST method for a from lets says the value to name is Bob. When it echos the $_POST['name'] is says string(3) “Bob” rather then just printing Bob. Even if I do a var dump it still shows up the same way.
