How to add name to every page of application (PHP)

So my company has an online application built in PHP and people fill it in and it sends it to a database. Well the company asked me to add the applicants name to every page somewhere, I'm guessing so when they print them out it will have the name on every page of the application. I'm not too good with PHP is there a way to do that?

<?php echo $name;?>

that prints a variable to the screen. Simply replace $name with the proper variable holding the name..

Are you calling it from the database ?

If it's about a form, you can have access to the name variable from the form by using the $_POST or $_GET (depending on what method you are using to send the info) or $REQUEST['name'].
Then you just need to echo those values :

Now, to display variables that are sent by a user in a form you can make those values sticky like this:


That line can be reduced by making a custom function and detect wether a variable was submitted or not and just outputing the value....but everything depends on your logic and how you are sending the data
