Example

<?
error_reporting(E_ERROR | E_WARNING | E_PARSE);
ini_set('display_errors',true);

echo '<html>
<body>';

if( $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] != 'POST' )
{
    // form
?>
<style>
td {
    border: 1px solid #000;
}
td:first-child {
    text-align: right;
}
td label {
    padding-right: 10px;
    font-weight: bold;
}
td input,
td select {
    margin-left: 5px;
}
</style>
The form below can request teams or standing* for either sport which don't require an API token.<br />
It can also request data that does require a token. If you have a valid token you may edit this file to utilize it.<br /><br />
* standings will require a token if a date is specified.
