HTML - Multiple Page Forms- Not Working
I'm new to forms and am trying to learn how to make a multiple page one. What I've made so far is very basic, but I figure I shouldn't make a pretty and complex one until I master the simple. I've made three separate pages: page a has the first part of the form and when you click 'continue' it should save the information and move you onto page b where you fill in another form. Then you move onto page c where the information you entered is displayed for you to review, then you press send. That's when it's sent to my e-mail.
There are two problems with my code: when you click 'continue' on page A it automatically sends the info to my e-mail and I don't want it to. I want it to go to page b. It also displays the information entered on page a, but also shows a bunch of the code that should be hidden. I don't know why. And it's driving me nuts. I'd appreciate any help! Here's the code: <html> <head> <title>Sample Multiple Page Form</title> </head> <body bgcolor="white" text="#000000" link="#0000CC" vlink="#0000CC" alink="#0000CC" marginwidth=0 marginheight=15 topmargin=15 leftmargin=0> <form action="http://www.bluehost.com/bluemail" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="POST"> <input type="hidden" name="sendtoemail" value="contact@mywebsite.com"> <input type=hidden name="next_page" value="Multiple_Page_b"> <input type=hidden name="required" value="name:Name Required,email:e-Mail Address Required"> <input type=hidden name="current_page" value="Multiple_Page_a"> <input type=hidden name="form" value="2"> <input type=hidden name="start" value="1"> <center> <table width=450 cellpadding=4> <tr> <td colspan=2> <font size=2 face="arial" color=red> </td> </tr> <tr><td><font face="arial" size=2> Your Name: </td><td><input type=text name="name" value="" size=30> </td></tr> <tr><td><font face="arial" size=2> Email Address:</td><td><input type=text name="email" value="" size=30></td></tr> <tr><td colspan=2><br><input type="submit" name="next" value="Continue >>"></td></tr> </table> </form> </body> </html> And here's the message displayed when clicking continue: Thank you for completing our form. The following info was sent to contact@mywebsite.com: Field Value next_page Multiple_Page_b required name:Name Required,email:e-Mail Address Required current_page Multiple_Page_a form 2 start 1 name Jess email contact@myemail.com next Continue >> Similar TutorialsWe're having difficulties dealing with two forms on one html search results page. We want the following to happen: 1) "next" and "previous" links to appear when the search returns more results than the limit set in the code. 2) the user to be able to click on a link/radio button which would allow them to view complete result data on another page. The code for goal 1 seems to need a "method = get" capability, while the second goal needs "method = post" to pass information on to the next page. We thought that the best way to do this would be to have two separate forms on the one html page. However, we can't seem to get either form to work in its entirety. Here's the code for our form with the "next" and "previous" links: Code: <form name = "form2" id="form2" method="get" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>"> When there is only this form on the page, the next/previous links work fine. It's when we try to incorporate other buttons (such as a submit button) and another form that things get messy. The same is true for the other form... it works fine by itself, but it's the combination that throws it off. Goal 2 form: Code: <form name = $formNum id = $formNum method=post action=seach_match_result.php target='_blank'> (This form has a submit button at the end.) These forms are not nested, but totally separated in the code. Are we on the right track, or is there a better way to accomplish this? Thanks! AM Hey guys and thanks in advanced for helpin' me out with this one. Anyways, I'm building a sort of "Advanced" search functionality. I want to give the user the ability to select multiple checkboxes in different categories (forms) but to be able to account for each checkbox even though they are in different forms. For example a Newspaper might have a search for an article by: Code: <FORM>(form name = "formONE")
Paper Type
Weekly []
Daily [x]
Monthly []
{SUBMIT BUTTON}
</ FORM>
<FORM> (form name = "formTWO")
Location
Upper East []
Null County []
Down South [x]
{SUBMIT BUTTON}
</ FORM>
<FORM> (form name = "formTHREE")
Article Section
Lifestyle []
Sports [x]
Weather []
Finances []
{SUBMIT BUTTON}
</ FORM>
SO looking at the above...If the user "checked" (I placed 'x' in there) those boxes...and clicked ANY of the submit buttons, I want to be able to pull-in EACH of the checked items from ALL THREE of the forms. What is happening now with my code, is I'm only getting the results for the form which I clicked the 'submit' button in. I know you might ask, "why not just put them in one form?"... but I have them in separate forms because I want the user to have the ability to "CHECK/UNCHECK ALL" for each category (i.e. Paper Type, Location, Article Section...) Is it as easy as just wrapping all of those forms in one GIANT form, and supply each submit button with the name of that GIANT form? I hope this makes sense, and let me know if you need anything else at all...it's the last piece of this search and I just want to get it out of the waY!! Thanks guys! I have a loop that extracts data out of the database and outputs a dropdown form with each line with options for the user. I have included an onChange = "this.form.submit();" for each dropdown. This works fine in Firefox, but does not work so well in Internet Explorer(yes, scripting is enabled). Here's the code: <form method="post" action="some.php"> <input type = "hidden" name ="variable1" value ="'.$variable1.'"' /> <input type = "hidden" name ="variable2" value ="'.$variable2.'"' /> <select name = "'.$variable1.$variable2" onChange = "this.form.submit();"> <option value = "option_1"> Option 1</option> <option value = "option_2"> Option 2</option> <option value = "option_3"> Option 3</option> <option value = "option_4"> Option 4</option> </form> This code is then just echo'd for each line. $variable 1 and $variable2 are unique, so to name each form differently I just give combine the two for a unique name I can call at some.php. Symptoms: In Mozilla this works great. With IE(both 6 and 7) the variable1 and variable 2 are passed along, however option_1(the 1st default option displayed) is always passed along except for the last one of my list. The last one of the list always passes along the correct the correct value. So if I had two outputs A and B,and I selected Option2 for each of them...then A would send Option1 but B would send the selected Option2. Hey 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">

Red - Associates with multi image options Blue - Associates with single image move option Any suggestions on how I can achieve this? Thanks, Kyle For years I have done things the same old way and they have worked fine, now I want to move a site over to xhtml from html4 and I am having problems get some code validated via W3C validator. Here is a sample of the code. It has 3 forms on the page. Each form is for a particular product in the shopping cart. ie, each form is for a unique product and it comprises a hidden text field containing the product_code (eg AAA3) and a submit button. When the chosen form is submitted I just pick up the POSTed data from the product_code variable ($_POST['product_code']) in php. This works fine for last few years but under the w3C validator it complains that the id is not unique for the product_code Quote: ID "product_code" already defined How can I get round this without having individual "product_code" ID's eg (id="product_code1" id="product_code2") as this would make life very complicated trying to workout what product_code was submitted.

Hey everyone, I'm working on a new login form for my site and getting a HUGE headache from it. The login box houses 2 forms but I do some trickery with jQuery for the password field so that I can display the word "Password" in a text input, and then I swap it to a password type input field when the user focuses on it. - The form for logging in contains: Email field [type=text] Fake Password field [type=text] Actual Password field[type=pass] - Another to create a new account contains: Screename [type=text] Email[type=text] Password field[type=pass] Testing in FireFox, I clear the saved passwords/cache from the site, pull up the forms and submit the LOGIN form. It's successful and I choose to "Remember the password". Now I logout and pull up the forms again...and the SIGN UP form's password field, now contains the value I entered in the LOGIN form when I saved earlier. Does it simply look for all password fields on the page and add the value to them? The forms both have different ID's all the input fields have different ID's... I've never dealt with forms on this magnitude, so it may be easy, but man is it a headache! THANKS FOR ANY HELP! I am using the following code to submit two forms at the same time - Code: <body onLoad="document.forms[0].submit();document.forms[1].submit();"> <form action="form1.php" method="post" target="_self"> <input type="hidden" name="value1" value="value1"> </form> <form action="form2.php" method="post" target="_blank"> <input type="hidden" name="value2" value="value2"> </form> </body> This does work and the current page goes to the first form's action, but the second form is opened in a new window. This is caused by the target="_blank" but if I don't include this, only the first form is sent. Is there any way I can make the second form run but not follow it (ie make it run in the 'background') or suppress the new window from opening? These two forms have to be separate and use POST, not GET. I only want to follow the first form. (That brings up another question - is it possible to not follow a form at all?) Thanks! Hello all, Iam trying to use for loop / while loop (javascript) to create multi HTML input forms, but I have no idea how to do. Please help me out. Thank you! Daralis Hey all, I have two forms on my page (shown below in order of appearance). The 2nd form works and redirects you to the page "change-password.php" as it should, but the 1st form does NOT work correctly - it redirects to "change-password.php" too. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, the form action clearly states "uploadconfig.php" but it still tries to send the information to "change-password.php" instead. Thanks in advance.

I know how to do a standard form, but what I want to do is have some code that automatically extracts the person's profile ID from the page source and sends it in the form (hidden). Is this possible with HTML, or would it require scripting and hence not be useable on myspace? how to make contact page with contact detail mean forms detail like this name: email: address: country: Comments : and submit how to use submit coding i do not know much html tell me about submit option Hi, I have a PHP script I am writing which displays a list of all the news posts I have made on my site and to the right of it has two links, Edit and Delete. The script will iterate through all the news posts I have made and display them down the page from most recent to oldest, it looks like this: The way it works at the moment is that when each headline gets added, the script will set the edit link for that particular post to <a href="EditSelectedPost.php?$i">Edit</a> $i being the ID to that post. I want it so that when I get sent to EditSelectedPost.php I can pluck off the value of $i and use it on that page. I want to be able to do this without using forms or buttons. Can this be done? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks Ashman I want to add a total of 10 forms to the same page but can only get the "Double Combo" box vehicle "Make and Modle" to work in "Ad 1". (see page link below) What am I missing or what do I need to do? Please view script form here >> http://www.netrixllc.net/clpublisher/create-ads.html I would appreciate any help... Thank you~ My page contains several iframes and each contains a form. In IE (but not in FF), when I submit a form, the action page is shown in a new window. How can I make it so the action page is instead loaded inside the iframe? Hi I searched through threads to make sure this topic is not posted before but I couldn't find any. I want to put several tables in one page with horizontal line in between them. however, after I post it on the website the tables are stuck together with no space. basically the order is messed up. Is there anyway I can get the format right? Thanks Hello all, I'm wanting to put a print button on a web page that when clicked will print multiple documents/pages. I have tried doing this but have failed several times, does anyone know what the code is that i should be using? Thanks Mini Dear all. I see this done many times on many websites (especially comic websites) where an image has a forwards and backwards arrow button, and images selected correspondingly. Ideally I want the [img src="images/001.jpg"] file name to increase by one each time. So all I have to do is add more images in ever increasing filenames to the images folder, 002.jpg, 003.jpg etc. How do I add one to a filename and then refresh the page? Can I do this in XHTML ? Many thanks. My task is to say "welcome" to diferent language users on a html page by their own languages. so the page needs to display multiple languages - just for "welcome". for safety reason, I hope all language characters are recorded with char values. actually I can not input "true words" of all languages, but I have thier values. i.e. Chinese "welcome" are 2 words with hex values of 226B and CE8F, and so on for Japanese, Korean, France language etc. I tried following code for Chinese language <p xml:lang="zh-Hans" lang="zh-Hans"> ≫ 캏 </p> but it is not working at all. could you help me with code to display multiple languages with char values on a single htmp page? Thanks . . Hi guys- Im not an expert. I am a teacher at an elementary school. I am trying to set up a webpage for our school that will allow students to view egg hatchings going on in all their classrooms. Im doing this through the use of webcams. I can get a single webcam to display in a page, but when I go for more than one, this is what happens... http://www.mrharris.org/unipage.html The second cam should be showint up, but there is obviously some issue here... Any suggestions ? Thanks ! Mike |
