Hi guys, I believe I"ve correctly coded this and think I'm so close.

I enter my HTML form:
                                record a payment
Unit: apt1  Amt paid: 530.00  Hudpay: 0.00  Date paid: - yyyy-mm-dd:  2021-07-10
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
and get this result:
receiptno updated successfully 0 payfile updated successfully
For:
tenant paying: apt1 - Amount paid: 530.00 - Date paid: 2021-07-10 - Amount due: 530
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The numbers table IS updated. The receiptno is 1310 but is displayed as 0 ??. The payfile IS NOT updated ??
The amount due should display as 0.00. The ? I've had all along: is "$receiptno = 0;" a way to define
it as numeric and does it also define it as having 0 value? I leave it out, it's undefined, put it in
the table value of 1310 is replaced with 0 ??
In the calcs:
elseif ($amtpaid == $owed)
{ $prevbal = 0.00; }
   is true, yet "Amount due: <?php echo $prevbal; ?>" displays 530.00??
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
the code:

$unit = $_POST['unit'];
$amtpaid = $_POST['amtpaid']; // **********************************
