You can do: 

if ($_POST['oprf'] == '' || $_POST['oprf'] == NULL) {
//this checks to see if there has been a value that was sent with the
//form
}

I usually use isset for cookies.

Add type property with submit type="submit" to button tag this will submit the form then receive the form inputs value in php script with super global variable $_POST['input name'] or $_GET[] wdepends on from action property value by default GET.

If you'd like to get the value of 'oprf' above, then:

$value = $_POST['obrf'];

Should do it in php.

You can try this one

if(isset($_POST['oprf'])) {
 echo $_POST['oprf'];
}

Hope this helps

I don't think this works consitently in all browsers. Better to work with a customized name attribute.
