PHP - Html Form With Formatting

I'm trying to submit html/php code through an html form and then insert it into a mysql database. I've got the following code so far (without the insert into database query), however when I submit the form I get pushed through to my 403 page. If i comment out the textarea that contains the code I am trying to submit, then it goes through fine.

Any ideas?


Code: [Select]
<?
if (isset($_POST['optone'])) {$optone=$_POST['optone']; $opttwo=$_POST['opttwo'];}
if (isset($_POST['type'])) {if ($_POST['type']=='Theory') {$optone=1;} if ($_POST['type']=='Demo') {$optone=2;} $opttwo=$_POST['module'];}

?>

<script>
function setOptions(chosen) {
var selbox = document.myform.opttwo;
 
selbox.options.length = 0;
if (chosen == " ") {
  selbox.options[selbox.options.length] = new Option('Please select an option first',' ');
  document.myform.go.disabled=true;
 
}
if (chosen == "1") {
  selbox.options[selbox.options.length] = new Option('Module 1','1');

I have inhertied some code that I have been told to get working. not very happy about it, but think its just some basic php.

The form has three inputs two user inputs and one hidden value..

Code: [Select]
    <label for="trans_id">Invoice Number(s): </label>
              <input id="trans_id" type="text" name="trans_id" /><br />
    <label for="amount">Amount Paying: </label>
              <input id="amount" type="text" name="amount" /><br />

<input name="remotepassword" value="password1" type="hidden" />
Now before submitting the form (post method) I need to create an md5 has of all of these values called digest. (hidden of course).

The code I was thinking of was..

Code: [Select]
<?php
$str = trans_id:amount:remotepassword;

string md5 ( string $str [, bool $raw_output = false ] ) 
?>

Now that code should generate the md5 hash, how do I then assign this to a value called "digest" to be added to the post form?

Ok, so I want to load results out of a form in the same page. This shouldn't be a problem.

Trying to get it into same page as where the form is, I think the code will make clear what I want to have done.
Have a little experience with PHP, and trying to learn by doing stuff like this. Expect its something really simple.

Code: [Select]
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<title>Pet EXP Calculator</title>
<style type="text/css">

}

$PetLoyal = $_POST['PetLoya'];

$MobLVL = $_POST['MobLVL'];

echo ($PetLVL);
}

hello,
im trying to have a from do a GET on the same page as it was submitted

the url is like this mysite.com/index.php?a=34&b=22

the form action="" is left blank but it doesn't display a=34b=22 it only displays index.php?informaitonfromform

which ends up sending the user to the index page and away from the index.php?a=34&b=22

<table width="287" border="1">
  <tr>
    <td width="277"><form id="form1" name="form1" method="GET" action="">
      <label>Zipcode:
      <input type="text" name="zipcode" id="zipcode" />
      </label>
        <input type="submit" name="submit" id="submit" value="Submit" />
    </form>
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>

how do i make the submitted form display on this page index.php?a=34&b=22?

Hello firstly i would like to say im very new to this forum (Signed up 5 minutes ago). I have decided to join as im in my final year at university and have been asked to create a website, so im guessing ill be coming back here a lot for help! .

Anyway my most current problem is i have an if statement that hides the "Register" button if the user is logged in and Shows a welcome message and the users name if the user is logged in. However i would like to make the log in form disappear if the user is logged in. I know that by putting the form code in the else part of my if statement it will disappear if the user is logged in however when i do this it stops my whole website working.

Any help would be very grateful.

Thanks Glen.

Not sure why the PHP variables in the code below aren't interpreting the values that they should be receiving from the HTML form.

HTML form
Code: [Select]
<form action="handle_form.php" method="post">

<fieldset><legend>Enter your information in the form below</legend>

<p><b>Name:</b> <input type="text" name="name" size="20" maxlength="40" /></p>
<p><b>Email Address:</b> <input type="text" name="email" size="40" maxlength="60" /></p>
<p><b>Gender:</b> <input type="radio" name="gender" value="M" /> Male <input type="radio" name="gender" value="F" /> Female</p>

<p><b>Age:</b>

<select name="age">
<option value="0-29">Under 30</option>
    <option value="30-60">Between 30 and 60</option>
    <option value="60+">Over 60</option>
</select>
</p>

<p><b>Comments:</b> <textarea name="comments" rows="3" cols="40"></textarea></p>
</fieldset>

<div align="center"><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Sumbit My Information"  /></div>
</form>
PHP handle_form
<?php #Script 2.2 handle_form.php

$name = $_REQUEST['name'];
$email = $_REQUEST['email'];
$comments = $_REQUEST['comments'];

echo "<p>Thank you, <b>$name</b>,
for the following comments:<br />
<tt>$comments</tt></p>
<p> We will reply to you at <i>$email</i>.</p>";

?>

 

This is my attempt to make an upload script to upload images to my own website.
Code: [Select]
<?php
$ch = curl_init("http://*******.com/imgupload.html");  
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,
            array('file'=>"@/home/user/mypic.jpg",
      'submit'=>'Submit'));
$postResult = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
print "$postResult";
?>The working upload form I'm trying to post to:
Code: [Select]
<html>
<body>

<form action="upload_file.php" method="post"
enctype="multipart/form-data">
<label for="file">Filename:</label>
<input type="file" name="file" id="file" />
<br />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>

</body>
</html>
Why doesn't this work?

Basically atm I am trying to accomplish a way to $_POST a selection from my dropdown box in to a PHP variable for use elsewhere. The eventual goal being a form that will allow you to select a user from the dropdown box; then via a HTML form with some additional text fields, add/update database table records for that person.

I have been searching and searching, and I cant find anything that addresses using a dropdown box that pulls names from my SQL in a html web form. All I can find are tons of guides on simple html only forms.

At the moment, the dropdown box is working, It is pulling names from my database/table. But when I select a name from the list and then click on my submit button the $_POST does not seem to be pulling the value for "username".

I have the following for the index page:

<?php
include('/nav.php');
include('/config.php');
include('/dbopen.php');
echo "Select a name: <select name='$name'>";
$query="select * from players";
$result=mysql_query($query);
while($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)){
$name=$row['PLAYER_NAME'];
echo "<option name=username value='$name'>$name</option>";
}
echo "</select>";
?>
<html>
<body>
<form action="moduser.php" method="post" />
<input type="submit" value="CLICK!" />
</form>
</body>
</html>


and the following for a test page to see if my form is being submitted correctly:

<?php
include('/nav.php');
include('/config.php');
include('/dbopen.php');
$username="$_POST[username]";
echo "Hello $username";
?>


NOTE:
My includes are tested and working default scripts to connect to database, define some global vars etc.
Should not be relevant to my particular problem

Thanks Much,
Dega.

I am trying to create a form that will be store in-house. This form needs to have a drop-down of keywords. These keywords will cause a snippet of code (pulled from the selection of the keyword) to be placed into a text document one after another.

Ex.: I click on "Header" in the list and click Insert Code. This causes Code: [Select]
"<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">" to be placed into the text document. I then hit click on "Body" and it creates the Code: [Select]
"<body></body" code to appear on the text document below the "Header" code above it.

This is basically a text writer that just uses snippets of code as I click on buttons. Almost like this editor above is doing. Is this possible and is it easy/hard?

When I put my contact form into my html and save it as php, nothing happens and I get no error messages.  I am not too sure if I placed my php in the wrong place.

Code: [Select]

 <?php  
      
        if (isset($_POST['Submit'])) {  
      
            if ($_POST['name'] != "") {  
                $_POST['name'] = filter_var($_POST['name'], FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING);  
                if ($_POST['name'] == "") {  
                    $errors .= 'Please enter a valid name.<br/><br/>';  
                }  
            } else {  
                $errors .= 'Please enter your name.<br/>';  
            }  
      
            if ($_POST['email'] != "") {  
                $email = filter_var($_POST['email'], FILTER_SANITIZE_EMAIL);  
                if (!filter_var($email, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)) {  
                    $errors .= "$email is <strong>NOT</strong> a valid email 

address.<br/><br/>";  
                }  
            } else {  
                $errors .= 'Please enter your email address.<br/>';  
            }  
      
            if ($_POST['message'] != "") {  
                $_POST['message'] = filter_var($_POST['message'], FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING);  
                if ($_POST['message'] == "") {  
                    $errors .= 'Please enter a message to send.<br/>';  
                }  
            } else {  
                $errors .= 'Please enter a message to send.<br/>';  
            }  
      
            if (!$errors) {  
                $first_name=$_POST['name'];
$email_address=$_POST['email'];
$subject = 'Test'; 
$message=$_POST['message'];

mail("myemailaddress@gmail.com","$subject",
$message,"From: $first_name <$email_address>"); 
      
                echo "Thank you for your email!<br/><br/>";  
            } else {  
                echo '<div style="color: red">' . $errors . '<br/></div>';  
            }  
        }  
    ?>

Hi,

Im making a sort of blogger module for a Zen Cart plug-in so that the front page can be used as a news page which would be good for SEO.

I have everything working, except for a HTML editor, as I need the user to be able to create the pages in the same sort of way you make the description for an ebay listing.

I have looked on google, but couldnt find anything.

Could anyone help me with this?

Thanks!
