PHP - Displaying Php Form Validation Errors Like Error[] And Echoing Them Out
Been screwing around on Google for about 3 hours trying to find a tutorial on what I am trying to do with absolutely no luck!
I am simply trying to get my test script to echo errors from an array when a form criteria does not validate. This is my final revision which is still not working! Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong? No matter what I do, I can't get away from this error: Notice: Undefined variable: error in C:\wamp\www\php\form_validation.php on line 13 <?php $o = $error[]; // test echo $o; // test if(!preg_match('/[^0-9A-Za-z]/',$_POST['first_name'])) { $error[] = "Please enter a valid First Name"; ?> <form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="post"> First Name:<br /> <input name="first_name" type="text" size="50" maxlength="50" /><br /><br /> <input type="submit" /><br /><br /> </form> Similar TutorialsHello, I'm having difficulty learning the most efficient method of echoing error messages on a form. The particular example I'm working on is a registration form which I have had functional but not perfected as of yet. I have been able to make the form work by using die() to kill the process and display a message however I would very much like for it to kill the process and simply echo an error message, same page, no redirects... I will post my code and hopefully someone with more knowledge than me can shed some light. Cheers! Code: [Select] <?php if (isset($_POST['submit'])) { //This is one error message I would like to display if (!$_POST['username'] | !$_POST['pass'] | !$_POST['pass2'] ) { die('You did not complete all of the required fields'); } if (!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) { $_POST['username'] = addslashes($_POST['username']); } $usercheck = $_POST['username']; $check = mysql_query("SELECT username FROM users WHERE username = '$usercheck'") or die(mysql_error()); $check2 = mysql_num_rows($check); //if the name already exists it gives an error here if ($check2 != 0) { die('Sorry, the username '.$_POST['username'].' is already in use.'); } // this makes sure both passwords entered match and should display an error if false if ($_POST['pass'] != $_POST['pass2']) { die('Your passwords did not match. '); } $_POST['pass'] = md5($_POST['pass']); if (!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) { $_POST['pass'] = addslashes($_POST['pass']); $_POST['username'] = addslashes($_POST['username']); } $insert = "INSERT INTO users (username, password) VALUES ('".$_POST['username']."', '".$_POST['pass']."')"; $add_member = mysql_query($insert); ?> And here is the form it fits into Code: [Select] <?php } else { ?> <body> <div id="container"> <div id="header"><?php include ("login_header.php") ?></div> <div id="photoNav"><?php include ("mainNav.php") ?></div> <div id="tableContent"> <div class="bold_16" style="margin-top:40px">Enter Your Registration Information Below</div> <div class="padding_top"><div style="padding-top:10px; text-align:center;"> ***THIS IS WHERE I WOULD LIKE MY ERRORS TO DISPLAY*** </div> <form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="post"> <table border="0" align="center"> <tr><td>Username:</td><td> <input name="username" type="text" size="23" maxlength="40"> </td></tr> <tr><td>Password:</td><td> <input name="pass" type="password" size="24" maxlength="12"> </td></tr> <tr><td>Confirm Password:</td><td> <input name="pass2" type="password" size="24" maxlength="12"> </td></tr> <tr><th colspan=2 style="text-align:right;"><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Register" style="margin-top:10px;"></th></tr> </table> </form> <?php } ?> </div></div> p.s is it just me or is it a real pain getting a message into this text-field?? Hi, I used to do form validations in a totally different manner before this that aside. I would like to know how can I do something like this. What happens here is if none of the conditions are met I echo a div containing the error and so on. The problem I am facing is If the first condition is not met it goes to the second condition and at the end there are two error divs at the same time. I want to perform something like, if first condition is not met script stops, echos only the div where the condition is not met and the script does not carry on. If i use the die or exit functions it dies and html dies with it any solutions or another way? Code: [Select] if (strlen($title)<=19) { echo "<div id='error'><div id='error_img'><img src='images/warning.gif' width='16' height='16' title='error' /></div> must of be atleast 20 characters. </div>";; } if ($on=="-1") { echo "<div id='error'><div id='error_img'><img src='images/warning.gif' width='16' height='16' title='error' /></div> Please select. </div>"; } any help is appreciated thanks!

I want the user to be able to fill out the form, hit submit, and if any errors, show the specific error but also keep the input boxes populated with the data the user filled out so he/she does not have to re type everything. if(!empty($_POST['submitFeature'])) { // set variables $featurename = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['featurename']); $name = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['name']); $email = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['email']); $email2 = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['email2']); $age = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['age']); $city = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['city']); $state = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['state']); $src = $_FILES['featureupload']['tmp_name']; $featuresize = $_FILES['featureupload']['size']; $limitsize = 3000000; if(!empty($featurename) && !empty($name) && !empty($email) && !empty($email2) && !empty($city) && !empty($state) && ($email == $email2) && !empty($_FILES['featureupload']['tmp_name']) && ($featuresize < $limitsize)) { // IF ALL IS CORRECT, SUBMIT INFO } else { print ' <ul class="errorlist"> <li class="alert">Please fill out the required fields.</li> '; if (empty($name)) { echo ' <li>* Full Name</li>' .

Have got a login working and the registration half way there, but am now in process of putting validation in Registration form. Have got the errors appearing if domething isn't filled in or if the username is taken however, it clears all the fields and i would like it to keep the values in them if possible. Is there an easy way round this? I can give my code if needed Cozzy Hi, I have a separate form created using Dreamweaver that calls a separate php script when the Submit button is clicked. Currently I am able display form validation messages in a new html page. If the user leaves fields blank, I would like the messages to appear on the form itself instead of in a new page. How do you make the messages from the php form validation code display into the calling html form? I know I could just do this with Dreamweaver but I would like to learn to do this using php. It might be easier to embed the code within the html page but I was thinking that using the separate script would be more secure. My form can be found here. Validation is working but opens a new page: http://www.tallfirshoa.com/adform.htm Thanks! Rob I am trying to use the new way of validating the entered email in a register form. Code: [Select] /* REGISTER FORM */ // check if submit button has been clicked if (isset($_POST['submit_signup'])) { // process and assign variables after post submit button has been clicked $user_email = strip_tags(trim($_POST['email'])); $user_email = filter_var($user_email, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL); $nickname = strip_tags(trim($_POST['nickname'])); $password = $_POST['password']; $repassword = $_POST['repassword']; $month = $_REQUEST['month']; $day = $_REQUEST['day']; $year = $_REQUEST['year']; $dob = $year . "-" . $month . "-" . $day; $find_us_question = strip_tags(trim($_POST['find_us_question'])); // connect to database $dbc = mysqli_connect(DB_HOST, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD, DB_NAME); $check_query = "SELECT * FROM user WHERE nickname = '$nickname'"; $check_connect = mysqli_query($dbc, $check_query) or die(mysqli_error($dbc)); $check_count = mysqli_num_rows($check_connect); // Check if the email exists twice $query_get = "SELECT email FROM user WHERE email = '$user_email'"; $query_run = mysqli_query($dbc, $query_get); $num_rows = mysqli_num_rows($query_run); // check if username is already taken if ($check_count != 0) { echo "Username already exists!"; } elseif ($num_rows != 0) { echo "This email address is already registered in the database, you can not register it twice."; // check if fields are empty } elseif (empty($user_email) || empty($nickname) || empty($password) || empty($day) || empty($month) || empty($year)) { echo "Please fill out all the fields!"; // check char length of input data } elseif (strlen($nickname) > 30 || strlen($user_email) > 50) { echo "Maximum allowed character length for nickname/firstname/lastname are 30 characters!"; // check password char length } elseif (strlen($password) > 25 || strlen($password) < 6) { echo "Your password must be between 6 and 25 characters!"; // check if passwords match with each other } elseif ($password != $repassword) { echo "Please make sure your passwords are matching!"; } else { // encrypt password $password = sha1($password); I would like to implement now an error message stating something along the lines that the entered email address is not valid, how would I have to do the if statement to check the condition? Hello all! Very frustrated PHP newbie here. I am trying to simply get my code to display errors. I have gone into the php.ini file, changed error_reporting to E_ALL, changed display_errors to On, changed display_startup_errors to On, and even added the line ini_set('display_errors', 'on'); to my code. I restarted the server after every change, and still I see no errors. My boss wants me to reach out to the community for answers rather than handing them to me himself. So here I am. Please advise! Thank you very much in advance. Hi, Im getting this error with my script that im using to try and echo content for my website: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ECHO in /home/a9855336/public_html/test.php on line 16 my php code is <?php $host="mysql12.000webhost.com"; // Host name $username="a9855336_root"; // Mysql username $password="n4th4n%"; // Mysql password $db_name="a9855336_mail"; // Database name // Connect to server and select databse. mysql_connect($host, $username, $password); mysql_select_db($db_name); $query = "SELECT title, content, FROM members where ID = 1"; $result = mysql_query($query); $row = mysql_fetch_array($result) echo $row['title']; ?> html stuff <?php echo $row['content']; ?> If anyone can help me fix this problem or sugguest a dfiferent way to go about this it would be greatly appriciated. Thanks, Blink359 Ok I'm setting the error. I debugged my code and it's catching the phrase in the set_error() function. But it's returning NULL when I try to display it from the display_error() function. These functions are in the form class. I create a new instance of it on the register.php and I'm trying to grab the values. Here is my Form class (only showing the part you need to see): Code: [Select] class Form { private $error; public function set_error($errmsg){ $this->error = $errmsg; return; } public function display_error() { $error = "<p style='color:red;'>".$this->error."</p>"; return $error; } } Then here is my register process: Code: [Select] if(isset($_POST['submit'])) { if(isset($_POST['name']) && isset($_POST['username']) && isset($_POST['password']) && isset($_POST['password2']) && isset($_POST['email']) && isset($_POST['email2']) && isset($_POST['dob']) && isset($_POST['gender']) && isset($_POST['security'])) { if ($user->register_user($_POST['name'], $_POST['username'], $_POST['password'], $_POST['password2'], $_POST['email'], $_POST['email2'], $_POST['dob'], $_POST['gender'], $_POST['security'])) { $message = "User has been registered successfully."; } else { $message = $form->display_error(); } } else { $message = "Please fill out all parts of the form!"; } } It display the $message just fine when I call isset($message), but it won't display it when I assign it the form->display_error() value because it returns NULL. Thank you! i have a form, and if the form has not been sent, it shows the form. here is my code for the beginning: Code: [Select] if($sent != true) { echo" ?> <div class='form'><form action='' method='post'> [b]!!![/b] <p class='form'>User ID: <br /><input name='memberID' type='hidden' value='<?php echo $row['id'] ?>' /> Your User ID will be logged for identity purposes. <br /><input type='checkbox' name='noIdentity' id='noIdentity' value='noIdentity' <?php if(isset($_POST['errors']) && isset($_POST[noIdentity])) { [b]!!![/b] echo ' checked='checked '"; } ?> /> and the end: Code: [Select] <?php "; } ?> it doesn't like what i have the exclamations next to. also, am i doing this right? Hi all, I have a html form list box that needs to show all the types of products that are for sale and have a number in the list box saying how many of that type are for sale. eg. If the mysql database looks like this productType | productDetails chair | outdoor large chair table | 2m x 1m chair | indoor chair chair | childs chair I would want the form list box to show the values inside as: chair (3) table (1) could someone give me the heads up on how to do this Thanks |
