HTML - Open File Using Button And List Box
I am very new with HTML and PHP and the code below I have a drop down select box and a submit button which uses PHP (this is from an example) But I need help on how to allow the user to select a report name from the drop down and click the Submit button and open a excel spreadsheet. If there is a simple way to do using HTML - that is OK. I just need some help getting started....
If "Position" is selected user clicks Submit button and the Excel file opens. First of all is that possible? And second then how do I accomplish? Thanks in advance. </body> </html> <ol> <form method="post" action="yourscript.php"> <select name="Reports"> <option value="Positions">Position <option value="Employees">Employees <option value="Transfers" selected>Transfers </select> </form> <td> </td> <td><input type="submit" value="Submit"></td> </tr> </form> </table> </form> Similar TutorialsI have a pdf file that is the catalog for my business. Is there a way to make it so that i can create a link that says "view" and if people click on it, then the standard "FILE DOWNLOAD" box does not come up... and it just opens the file in a separate window.... and have a "download" link where if they click that... then it just downloads the file. I know that i am weird... but i think it would be something that not everybody has... and something that would be kinda cool. Thanks in advance.... Mark Hello all. Our Website runs wordpress with a standard header, body and one sidebar template. We need to be able to have an image in the sidebar that when it is clicked, a different image is then opened at the top of the body. Is this possible? Thanks for your time. kevin Hello, this may sound like a dumb question: Is there a way build a button that on rollover makes an image appear beside it? thanks Hi, I'm currently trying to get a submit (post) button to open the target page In a background tab in firefox, i.e. not auto switching to the new tab. I have heard something about firefox not supporting "focus ()" (at least i think thats it, im kind of a newb) due to security reasons, so is there any way around this at all?

Can anyone help me with this? Thanks , Geek.Shrek Hello there, I have a html page that has links to files on it,, when a user clicks on a file it comes up asking for them to save, open or cancel. is it at all possible to add code to this line <a href="ChainELinkClient\dotnetfx.exe" class="1">Install .NET Framework 1.1</a> to make it so it will automatically open,, instead of asking for those options? Is there a way to have a link bring up a 'Save as...' box by default rather than having the link open the file inside my visitors' browser. More specifically, I have a long lecture on my site (mp3) that by default opens in my visitors' browsers rather than offering to be downloaded. I know visitors can right-click on the link to get a 'Save as...' box, but I would rather 'Save as...' be the default action whenever the link is clicked. Hello Everyone, Can someone guide me how can I open a word doc or text file from a html page. I already changed the following setting for doc files in my system: In Explorer - Click Tools --> Folder Options Click on File Types Goto any office extension (XLS, DOC, PPT,...) and uncheck Browse in Same Window. Here is my html file <html> <body> Hello <a href="c:\\myword.doc" target="_self">Link</a> </body> </html> The preferable way would be to govern it through coding, rather doing some manual settings in browser. Thanks. Ok still super new at this HTML thing, but I am going to be using Filezilla to access my friends index.html file for a little eding of the text. My question is can I open the file, edit what I need and save it all within filezilla? Or do I need to drag the index.html file to my desktop, edit, save and the drag it back to filezilla? Does anyone know how I can enable someone to download a file from my website? I don't know if this is html or not. I have a browse button when user selects a file i want to display the files attached in a table with attached filename and date. can anybody tell me how to generate table dynamically. Okay, with frames, whenever there is a link that you want to open up in the parent browser rather than inside the frame, all you have to add to the link code is "target="_parent"". However, for INPUT BUTTONS(not links) this doesn't seem to be the case. This is my input button code: HTML Code: <input id="button" type="button" value="Submit!"> the input button is INSIDE A FRAME, and because of that, when I click on it- the link goes inside the frame... how do I make it so the input button links to the PARENT browser? Hi everyone, I need to know whether we can select a file using save button?? and also i need to scrape the details in the file to a variable.. IS this possible... Plz help me.. really I'm stuck in this.... I need an way to upload a file by clicking a link instead of button(<input type="file" name="somename"/>). This feature has been newly added to GMail, to attached a file we need to click a link. Any ideas or code of how this can be done are needed. Thanks Hi all, how can i upload a file and when i click the submit button i go automatically to other web page. I am using some code that uploads the file perfectly, but i can't get a way to go to other page when i click the submit button. If someone can help me giving me an example of how to do that, or tell me what to change in my code i'll appreciate any kind of help. Here is my code: PHP Code: <?php function error($errorMsg) { ?> <script> alert("<?php echo $errorMsg;?>"); </script> <?php } global $folder; $folder = "uploaded"; if(!is_dir($folder)) if(!mkdir($folder)) { error("Can't, neither, access, nor create, the upload folder"); die(); } ?> <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <style> body { background-color:#000000; } </style> <title>Upload</title> </head> <body> <center><h1><font color = "#FFFFFF" > Upload </font></h1></center> <?php function mainPage() { ?> <iframe style="display:none" name="fileUploader"></iframe> <form method="POST" target="fileUploader" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="?action=fileUploader"> <div><input name="file" type="file" STYLE="color:#FFFFFF; size="60"></div> <input type="submit" value="Upload" > </form> <?php } function fileUploader() { global $folder; function storeFile($folder,$tmpFileName,$fileName) { if(!is_uploaded_file($tmpFileName)) { error("Invalid file"); return; } if(!move_uploaded_file($tmpFileName, $folder . "/" . $fileName )) { error("Can't move uploaded file to destination"); return; } } foreach ($_FILES as $file) storeFile("uploaded",$file["tmp_name"],$file["name"]); } $actions = array("fileUploader" => 1,"fileLoader"=> 1); if (!isset($_GET['action'])) { //If not isset -> set with dumy value $_GET['action'] = "undefine"; } $action = $_GET["action"]; if($actions[$action]) $action(); else mainPage(); ?> </body> </html> Is there a way to put a custom graphic for the browse button in the file upload field, similar to how you can use a custom graphic for the submit button? |
