For this problem, you are to cannibalize any available code and write a pair of scripts to count using user-specified limits in decimal, binary, octal, and hexadecimal. Your scripts are to do the following.

1. The HTML Page: counting.html
   • Ask the user for the lower and upper limits
   • Accept input in a form
   • Using the Count button, send the data to a PHP script called counting.php
2. The PHP Script: counting.php
   • Check the low and the high values and swap them if necessary
   • Report the actual low and high values
   • Create a four-column table with each row containing the corresponding values in the four bases; hexadecimal values are to use capital letters

To see how this could work, view this possible solution.

Hints

• You may wish to consider using base_convert(), decbin(), etc.
