HTML - Posting Back To Original Form
I am currently making a webform. This form formatted by html uses PHP to post the entered data to my MySQL database. I would like to allow my users to enter Rich Text, therefore I got FCKEditor a WYSIWYG web editor which will turn all the rich text into html so I can store it in the exact format.
The Problem: FCK Editor dimensions are very large, therefore I need to have it as a pop up. Supposedly the user will enter into the form page, and then click on a link if they want to enter Rich Text. The link will bring up the Editor. That is all fine, however I would like to know on how I would -Post the entered data back onto the original form when they press submit in the pop up without losing any data. Currently when I try to do this, it would submit the entered data into a new form, not the one that the user came from. Similar TutorialsI have a big form (http://plemorarpg.com/footpatrol/nightlyreport.html), and I want it to submit to e-mail when 'submit' is clicked... but I want it to e-mail it in the form of a table (or at least in a nice, orderly fashion), not in the form of a variable list (so I want to see the e-mail look like the form, instead of look like last-night-1 great last-night-2 okay ) Can anyone help me, or point me in the direction of help? Perhaps a free webhost who allows cgiemail, or someone with cgiemail that's willing to let me host this on their site for a small fee? This is for a volunteer group that walks people home at night on a university campus, so money is fairly nonexistent... The server I'm currently using has a CGI capabilities, but no set bin and no pre-codes. My knowledge of CGI is pathetic, but if that's the only way I'd love it if someone could walk me through step by step. Anyone? EDIT: I have a webserver that allows CGI, but it doesn't have a bin or any scripts - I am getting some problem while writing a submit form. Below is the exact code of my form. <html> <body> <font face=Arial size=2> <form action="contact.php" method="post"> <input type="text" name="name"> <input type="submit" value="Send"> </form> </body> </html> when I am clicking on the 'Send' button the value passed to the address bar should be : http://myweb.com/contact.php?name=jaas&submit=Send But instead of that it just pass http://myweb.com/contact.php Means the inputs are not parsed to 'contact.php'. I am not getting where the problem lies. Please help. Hi, Is it possible in HTML to have a link that takes you back to the previous page you visited. But here's the catch....i want the back link on my pages to behave exactly as the BACK button in Internet Explorer (hope that makes sense). I have a link on my pages which is this: <font size="2"><a href="javascript: window.history.go(-1)">BACK</a></font> but this works in such a way that if you go to Page1, then Page2, then Page 3, then you click on BACK in page3...that takes you to Page2...if you then click on the BACK link on Page2, it takes you back to Page 3...when in fact I want it to go to Page 1.... Please urgently help. Thanks Hello, I dont know if someone had the same problems, but it seem to me that it is quite common. For a service I would offer my visitors to log in or register... Then after registering or logging in I would like to direct them back to the page where they had been diverted from. And the number of steps and the page are not always the same. Is there a way to "remember" the page name when click on register or login and at the end of the reg/log process go back there? Thanks Attila hey everyone, on my website (like most websites) the text when you push CTRL and the scrolling button on your mouse the text changes size. I don't like this feature but understand some people need the help for them to read the text. Is there a code i could insert on my site where it will (after each time you come back) return to its original text size. the size i put on it well i was making it. so it lets people change it but when you leave then come back after a visit it'll turn the text back to its original form and size. thank you, Micheal Hey, If you have a background image in a table set to no-repeat, is there anyway you can show another background image when it has finished repeating? For instance: ------------------ |.......................| |.......................| |.......................| |.......................| |.........BG..1......| |.......................| |.......................| |.......................| |.......................| (background finishes here) |------------------| |------------------| |------------------| |------------------| |-----BG 2-------| |------------------| |------------------| |------------------| ... and repeat background 2 for the remainder of the div/td? Thanks, Oli I think I have the same problem, I am setting up a site offering bands a personal page on a local music scene website. the band's page is displayed in a frame when I have created a page for the band i want to offer them a url to directly link to their page but still show the entire frameset (index.html) what would this url be or how woul i go about creating it? would really appreciate the help, cheers! Luke I just posted a question 5 minutes ago and now it's gone. hummm any thoughts? Dear All, I've just recently begun to build my website. On a page, there is a text area with a Submit button below it. The user enters text in the box and then clicks submit. Text box is submited to the server which it then posts to the same page. The problem is that, when the entry is multiple lines long it gets posted to the page as one single long sentence running off the right side of the page. I am using Microsoft Expression Web 4, and front page server extensions. I have tried using a line break and justify margin settings, but to no avail. The text still gets posted as a single long line of text instead of marginalizing it into multiple lines. Thanks in advance for help, Elwood I want to post information to another pages through links: for example, I want when clicking on a link "client" to go another page saying "Welcome Client" How could I do something like that..I know that I must use a form in order to post information to another pages...How to do it without using a form...Help please! Thanks in advance... Sorry if this is the wrong section to post in but as I have explained I'm new to this & I don't fully understand what everything means. But my question is this: A long time ago somebody told me of a method in which I was able to make a nwe forum topic via the address bar. There were spaces to put the message, topic title, topic icon etc. But being slow I forgot it. I was just wondering if anyone could help me with this as I would like to use it to make multiple topics on my new message board & I don't want to type the whole topic out again everytime I post. Again I'm sorry is this is the wrong place to post a quaestion like this. Thanks, Jonny. Hello! I need some help with my website - it is an international job posting website and I cant figure out how to make the job postings go on auto-pilot. Say someone would like to post a job, as of right now they email me and I put it on the website, and recently I tried using a forum but a) the viewer has to sign up with this forum company and b) they delete my posts because they have to do with money i think... so I'm wondering if anyone out there would know how to put this site on auto pilot by creating my own forum or something!! Thanks so much to whoever can help a sista out! Lindsay I'm trying to make a site where people can post information. Similar to something like facebook where people enter in fields and then those fields instantly become a profile. I can figure out how to write the form etc., but what I need help on is how to get it to open into a new page. Is this DHTML? If not, can anyone tell me the formal name, so I can try to find it and learn it? Or if someone could just tell me how, that would be great too. Thanks! I am adding an event to a web page I have inherited from someone else. I don't have access to the CSS styles in the webpage, so I have to use existing styles. The page is supposed to line up in two columns, and used to do that before my updates today, but for some reason now is all in one long column. I could use another set of eyes, as I can't seem to see the reason it is having problems. Can you help me? I need to get an answer this morning or I will have to change the page back so that it looks correctly even if it has old information. Hi everyone, I'm new here and new to html stuff.

So if they post to their facebook wall, it would need to immediately update on their website. I have come across some methods, but I haven't seen any instances of these methods working on any sites. Can anyone help me? I have an associates degree in web design so I am pretty basic. Thanks a million for any help/info I can get on this! t i would like to put the code for a banner ad on my site, so that people can copy the code and place the banner on their site. of course, every time i put the code in it actually places the banner instead of the code. is there a tag that basically says, "this is not html"? Hi, i'm new here and fairly new to html and use a point and click interface for making websites. Can someone help me with an html code that can do the following?: -Its an large input field for visitors to post text and pictures which will then be sent to my email-, to be reviewed for content by me. I will then edit the website with the visitor's content. Sorry if it wasn't clear enough. Thank You, Frostysnow I am building a website for a class and I need the ability to post comments. I need to take in name, address, all the usual stuff, their comments and then post it back for everyone to read. The catch is that my site will mainly be being viewed offline. I will have it online, but that isnt part of the requirements. I need some sort of extremely simple form/posting method that doesnt require anything to be running server-side. I have decent knowledge of html, but zero knowledge of java scripting, php, mysql, asp, perl, etc. I have downloaded some guestbook generators and looked at some other examples, but all of them seem to require something running server side. I say seem because I really dont know. I dont need any security or anti spam or spell check or anything like that, just something really simple. It is getting down to crunch time, so any help would be appreciated. If you need anything on my end please let me know. I am recieving email notifications on this post, but if you want to IM me at phemmin and get some interactive discussion going, that would be great. I probably wont be around until tomorrow afternoon. Also, I am using frames, dont know if that will matter any. |
