echo"<form>"; echo "<input type='text' READONLY value='$postmsg' name='$postmsg' "; echo "</form>"; yea its in php ..the ouput is that the varible is in a single line but i need it to be in a large scrolling box help plz?? thx Similar TutorialsHey Guys, I am having an issue where the only logical way I can see this being done, is with nested forms, which I know aren't allowed, and are breaking my design in IE. Here's the concept: I have a gallery of images that a user is managing (like 12 images are displayed on each page). Each image has a checkbox associated with it that the user can check and then at the bottom of the page the user can move all checked images to another folder. Therefore, all images and their checkbox's, along with the "move to folder" selection menu and submit button at the bottom are contained into one big form. Now within this form I have the option for users to move individual images. Each image has a select menu of folders and submit button that they can use to move a individual image. This therefore requires another form, just for this select menu (since I only want the action to be applied to this specific image and it's select input, and all others also have the same select input name, etc) and a submit button. See this screenshot for example: http://imagenerd.com/show.php?_img=gallery69SR.jpg Here is a snippet of code I am using in this example: Code: <form action="" method="post"> <div class="box-row last-row"> <div class="box-full"> <div class="box-top"><div class="box-bot"><div class="box-left"><div class="box-right"><div class="box-top-left"><div class="box-top-right"><div class="box-bot-left"><div class="box-bot-right"> <div class="box-content"> <h1>Folder: dafasd</h1> <div class="box-content-pad"> <div class="gallery-block"> <span class="edit-title" id="_199" title="edit title"><i>click to add title</i></span> <div class="image-option-links"> <a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="share_codes_popup('/view-codes/?filename=siege_of_stormwynd-AXAP0.jpg&thumbname=th_siege_of_stormwynd-AXAP0.jpg', 'title');" title="get share codes">share</a> | <a href="javascript:void(0);" title="move this image" class="move_image">move</a> | <a href="/my-gallery/?delete_image=199" title="delete this image" onclick="return confirm('Are you sure you want to delete this image, siege_of_stormwynd-AXAP0.jpg?')">delete</a> </div> <div class="move-image-options"> <form action="" method="post"> <select name="move_image_folder"> <option value="1">Root</option> <option value="12">dafasd</option> <option value="13">dafasd</option> <option value="14">dafasd</option> <option value="15">asdfasdf</option> <option value="16">asdfasdf</option> </select> <input type="hidden" name="move_image_id" value="199" /> <input type="submit" name="move_image" value="Go" onclick="return confirm('Are you sure you want move this image, siege_of_stormwynd-AXAP0.jpg?');" /> </form> </div> <div class="image-box"> <a href="http://www.new.imagenerd.com/show.php?_img=siege_of_stormwynd-AXAP0.jpg" title="View siege_of_stormwynd-AXAP0.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="/thumbnails/th_siege_of_stormwynd-AXAP0.jpg" alt="siege_of_stormwynd-AXAP0.jpg" width="175" height="35" /></a> </div> <div> <table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="image-select"> <tr> <td width="20" align="left"> <input type="checkbox" name="image_cb[]" value="199" class="checkbox" id="img_199" title="select siege_of_stormwynd-AXAP0.jpg" /> </td> <td align="left"><label for="img_199" title="select siege_of_stormwynd-AXAP0.jpg">siege_of_stormwynd-AXAP0.jpg</label></td> </tr> </table> <table width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" class="table-pad-2 table-align-td-left quick-select"> <tr> <td width="70"><b>Email/IM:</b></td> <td><input type="text" value="http://www.new.imagenerd.com/show.php?_img=siege_of_stormwynd-AXAP0.jpg" onclick="this.select()" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td><b>Forums:</b></td> <td><input type="text" value="" onclick="this.select()" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td><b>HTML:</b></td> <td><input type="text" value="<a href="http://www.new.imagenerd.com/show.ph...XAP0.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.new.imagenerd.com/thumbna...XAP0.jpg" alt="" border="0" width="175" height="35" /></a>" onclick="this.select()" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><a href="/view-codes/?filename=siege_of_stormwynd-AXAP0.jpg&thumbname=th_siege_of_stormwynd-AXAP0.jpg" title="more share codes">more...</a></td> </tr> </table> </div> </div> . .

Thanks, Kyle Hello, I am trying this forum for some help. I have tried other sites and no one has yet come up with an idea for what might be the problem or suggest a solution. I have a search form on the site. In IE only when the user types in data and presses enter the values don't get passed. They are forced to press the button manually to trigger the search. Has anyone come across this issue and know a way to get it to work? I would like to avoid use of javascript in this case. The site is http://www.medicine-garden.com.au. This does not appear to be a PHP issue so I am posting it here. HTML form: HTML Code: <form class="searchform" action="callbacks.php" method="get"> <p> <input class="searchbox" name="searchcriteria" type="text" /> <input class="button" type="submit" name="submit_search" value="Search" /> </p> </form> The code to process the form follows PHP Code: function whichSubmit($get_array){ $num_of_get = count($get_array); //print_r($get_array); // show entire $_GET array foreach($get_array as $key => $value){ //echo $key."<br />"; $submit_array = split("_", $key); if($submit_array[0] == "submit"){ //echo "<strong>Found Submit</strong><br />"; //test if found submit_<name> //print_r($submit_array); return $submit_array; }else{ //return false; } } } if($_GET){ $which_submit = whichSubmit($_GET); } if($which_submit != false){ switch($which_submit[1]){ case "search": //get search string $searchcriteria = $_GET['searchcriteria']; if($searchcriteria == ''){ $searchcriteria = 'all'; $url = "searchresult.php?category=" . $searchcriteria; }else{ $url = "searchresult.php?searchcriteria=" . $searchcriteria; } //echo "The current URL is: " . $url . "<br />"; header( 'Location: '.$url ) ; break; } } Any ideas are welcome. I need to do a form submission that assigns values to radio buttons. Basically its a subjective hearing test, like this one. http://www.entnet.org/healthinfo/hea...aring_test.cfm My question is I don't know how to setup the form at the point of submission, so it returns the proper response, dependent on the selected buttons(or score)? Does anyone have a clue? Thanks in advance... Hi there, I have inserted a form into my website using FP2000. I have all the fields I need; Name, City etc..But I don't quite understand how to make the "Submit" and "Reset" button work. I would also like to know how I can make some fields neccessary, so the person may not submit without entering information in required fields..help please! Hi can anyone help me I set up a website for a friend and added a form so clients could fill it in and make appointments. For some reason it doesn't seem to work properly. It works from my partners laptop and the main pc but on my laptop nothing happens , after clicking submit the form does not send . I have tried sending it with outlook express open and it still does jot work from laptop The html code is spot on and correct Anyone got any ideas I need help writing a form...i know how to do everything but have it sent to my email address. Can somebody give me or help me write a CGI program that will send it to my email address. Thank you very much I am creating some forms for a website, and each form needs to have 1 or 2 text fields that can have additional text fields added or removed from the form. For example, a plus sign that would duplicate the text field, and then a minus sign to get rid of excess fields. I would really appreciate it! If you need more information on my problem stvnclerico@gmail.com Thankyou! Hello and thank you for having such a good resource for html online. I am trying to accomplish something and am not sure how to go about doing it. What I need to do is have a box that has multiple check boxes with I guess you can call them responses next to them. When the boxes are checked, I would like to be able to have a next button, that would bring me to another set of check boxes and of course answers. At the end of all of this, I would like to have whatever was checked put into a box at the end, that could be copy and pasted into another document. I am basically trying to make a function at my job easier. I have seen it done before, but am not sure what it would be called. I have dabbled a bit with html and for the life of me cannot figure it out. Not looking for someone to do this for me or even walk me through it, but just a point in the right direction. Thanks in advance. Okay, I'm trying to make a form that sends the information entered to my email address. I don't know if it's the code or not but all it seems to be doing is opening up a blank email directed to the address. Here's the code: <form action="MAILTO:lifeisbetteroutsidethebox@hotmail.com" method="post" enctype="text/plain"> <p align="center"><strong>Your Full Name:</strong><br /><input name="name" type="text" class="style8" size="20"> </p> <p align="center"><strong>Your Email Address:</strong><br /> <input name="mail" type="text" class="style8" size="20" /> </p> <p align="center"><strong>Your City:</strong><br /> <input name="city" type="text" class="style8" size="20" /> <p align="center"> <input name="Send" type="submit" id="Send" value="Send"> <input name="Reset" type="reset" id="Reset" value="Reset"> </form> Okay, any help please? Hi, I'm looking for some coding to start a small app that allows the filling of a form in order to submit my free 30 sms that i have montly from my operator. The manual procedure is 1) Login (by cookie or Session) 2) In the page, select SMS 3) Select a category (varies) 4) Write the message & Press Submit 5) Logout What i'm looking for is an app, JS/HTML/PHP/ASP/ETC that could bring the manual procedure described above in one simple form. Hi there - I tried searching for the answer to thsi question all over the web and have been unable to find the answer so I hope that someone here can help me.

http://lillypad.net/content/featured...uredproperty=1 Thank you for any help you can give! Sincerely, Char Hey I'm new to these forums and fairly new to html. I have a question about forms that everybody here probably be knows, but I'm new, so... here it goes. 1. How do I make a submit button that will submit the data entered in the forms before the submit button and send it to me? If I'm not clear enough just ask and I'll try to re-explain myself. please help i am new to html and i am trying to add an optin form to my site that is linked to my e-mail can anyone help also the email address that the info needs to be sent to is glenwalker@grabtwitter.co.uk I have almost no knowledge of forms at all, and I need help... I need a form that makes one line with a button and a text box, the button should say "URL" and the text box should show the URL of a site. When you click the button it should highlight the URL in the text box. On the next line, another button that says "Image", and the text box has the URL of an image I have posted in my blog. Same here, when button gets clicked, it hightlights the URL in the text box. Simple? Hard? Can someone help a newbie? Here's an example of what I need: www.mycute.com Thanks! Helena I have a question about forms. What I want to do is make it so that when somebody types something into a text feild and presses 'sumbit', whatever they typed in will appear in a specific place on the page. What I mean is that if somebody typed in their name, it would go to a page that says Hello, (Whatever was just typed). I've been looking everywhere for a code for this but I've come up with nothing. Can somebody help? Hi, I currently have an area on my site where people can change the look using CSS in a text area. I now want to do it so i use a dropdown box and when someone selects a style they like it calls a CSS theme and puts it into the head of the page. Is this possible (sorry if i have it in the wrong section!) Joe I need help with a form that allows the user to enter and submit the information, and then that information that they enter is automatically dislplayed below on the same page, after they hit the submit button. Here is the code I have. Here is the html code (comment.html) <html> <body> <form action="post.php" method="post"> First Name: <input type ="text" name="firstname"/>   Last Name: <input type ="text" name="lastname"/> <br/> <br/><dd/> Comments orSuggestions: <br/><dd/> <textarea name="comment" rows="10" cols="50"></textarea> </textarea> </form> </body> </html> Here is the php code (post.php) <?php $firstname=$_GET['firstname']; $lastname=$_GET['lastname']; $comment=$_GET['comment']; echo $firstname; echo "&4nbsp; $lastname"; echo ":"; echo " $comment"; ?> I do not want the the info when submitted to be displayed on the php page, I want it displayed on the html page where it was submitted, I was told I needed a php page to do that, but I cannot get it to work. Can somebody suggest a site where a can download an easy script to make my form work so that I can get it to my email? Thanks Hi Everyone. I'm looking for a way to make a form (only one input line) inwhich you write an URL, press submit and it'll send you to that url. not sure if it's only HTML stuff, but i just can't get how to do it. The form should act like the address bar. If you want to know why don't i just use the address bar, It's because I need to use Frames. Yes, I know it's kind of old, but i like it Thanks alot Chaim I need help using a code to do the following: I have a search field, when someone types their serial number into the box it needs to bring the specs up for their computer. Currently i am using a code that is simply if this is typed it goes to this page. As the list of serial numbers grows the list becomes larger and larger. Is there a way to either make this an external file where i can update the one file instead of the actual page it is on or is their a simpler way to do this with maybe PHP, SQL or something else that would make this easier to update? |
