PHP - Setting Up Error Messages
Hello,
I've been working on a search script that call on a function to retrieve info from my database. What I'm trying to do next is to echo various errors e.g. No search results to display. At the moment I have three messages I would like to display based on the user input but it is not working when I try to set up a second functions within the same tags. I have got it working by using header:location but it would be much faster and easier to just echo the messages on one page I will post the code below. Code: [Select] <?php require_once('Connections/price_db.php'); ?> <?php if (!function_exists("GetSQLValueString")) { function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "") { if (PHP_VERSION < 6) { $theValue = get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? stripslashes($theValue) : $theValue; } $theValue = function_exists("mysql_real_escape_string") ? mysql_real_escape_string($theValue) : mysql_escape_string($theValue); //this is the function I would like to add function showErrors($error1 = "", $error2 = "", $error3 = ""){ $var = $_GET['search'] ; $error = false; $error1 = ""; $error2 = ""; $error3 = ""; if (strlen ($var) < 3){ $error = true; $error1 = "You Must Enter At Least Three Characters To Search"; } if (strlen ($var) == 0) { $error = true; $error2 = "Please Enter a Search"; } if ($totalRows_Recordset1 == 0){ $error = true; $error3 = "Your Search Returned No Results"; } if ($error){ showErrors($error1,$error2,error3); } //above is where I have come into troubles switch ($theType) { case "text": $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL"; break; case "long": case "int": $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? intval($theValue) : "NULL"; break; case "double": $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? doubleval($theValue) : "NULL"; break; case "date": $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL"; break; case "defined": $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theDefinedValue : $theNotDefinedValue; break; } return $theValue; } }} $colname_Recordset1 = "-1"; if (isset($_GET ['search'])) { $colname_Recordset1 = $_GET['search']; } mysql_select_db($database_price_db, $price_db); $query_Recordset1 = sprintf("SELECT * FROM price_db WHERE tb_name LIKE %s OR tb_desc LIKE %s", GetSQLValueString("%" . $colname_Recordset1 . "%", "text"),GetSQLValueString("%" . $colname_Recordset1 . "%", "text")); $Recordset1 = mysql_query($query_Recordset1, $price_db) or die(mysql_error()); $row_Recordset1 = mysql_fetch_assoc($Recordset1); $totalRows_Recordset1 = mysql_num_rows($Recordset1); ?> and this is the html for it Code: [Select] <div class="bold_14"> <?php echo $error1 ?> <?php echo $error2 ?> <?php echo $error3 ?> </div> Similar TutorialsHow is it possible, in PHP, to display an error message next to a form input text field if a user is attempting to submit a form with empty fields? Moreover, how is it possible to remove the same error message when the user fills in the input field with the required data and/or refreshes the page? I have 2 files that I am working with: application.php and process.php.
application.php mainly has the HTML of the form. I am very new to learning PHP (I started learning it last week) and I have been searching for hours for a clear answer. I have already tried different methods for generating the error message including: using empty(), !isset, $_POST["name"] = "", etc, and have tried using session_start();, $row, echo, print, and other variables to try and display error message on the page, and I have tried using unset();, and = null, to try and remove the error message once the input field has been filled but all to no avail. Either the method I try only half works, or nothing works, and I cannot pinpoint which is the part that is not working. I only have 2 files to work with, and as an example of what I want to do is:
1. If the first name field is empty when the user clicks submit, an error message should appear next to the input. Is this possible with PHP? I have to get the error messages to appear...but for some reason they're not showing up if I leave the forms blank and click submit. Code: [Select] <? $PROVINCES = array( "--" => "--- Please Select Provinces ---", "nf"=>"Newfoundland", "pe"=>"Prince Edward Island", "nb"=>"New Brunswick", "ns"=>"Nova Scotia", "qc"=>"Quebec", "on"=>"Ontario", "mb"=>"Manitoba", "sk"=>"Saskatchewan", "ab"=>"Alberta", "bc"=>"British Columbia", "nt"=>"Northwest Territories"); if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'GET') { $dimwelcomeMsg = TRUE; } if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST') { if ($_POST['uname'] == ''){ $errMsg['uname'] = "Username must not be blank!!!"; $unameInError = true; } if (empty($_POST['year']) == TRUE){ $errMsg['year'] = "Year must not be blank!!"; } if (count($errMsg) > 0 ): $dispErrorMsg = TRUE; else: foreach ($_POST as $key => $val): $key = strtoupper($key); $successMsg[$key] = $val; endforeach; $dispSuccessMsg = TRUE; endif; } ?> <html > <head> <title>Comp10065 - Simple Form Validatioon</title> <style type="text/css"> body { margin: 0; padding: 0; font: 80%/1.5 Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; color: #111; background-color: green; } h2 { margin: 0px; padding: 10px; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif; font-size: 200%; font-weight: normal; color: #FFF; background-color: #CCC; border-bottom: #BBB 2px solid; } h1 {color:#006600} p#copyright { margin: 20px 10px; font-size: 90%; color: #999; } div.form-container { margin: 10px; padding: 5px; background-color: #FFF; border: #EEE 1px solid; } p.legend { margin-bottom: 1em; } p.legend em { color: #C00; font-style: normal; } div.errors { margin: 0 0 10px 0; padding: 5px 10px; border: #FC6 1px solid; background-color: #FFC; } div.errors p { margin: 0; } div.errors p em { color: #C00; font-style: normal; font-weight: bold; } div.success { margin: 0 0 10px 0; padding: 5px 10px; border: #FC6 1px solid; background-color: #FFC; } div.success p { margin: 0; color:#006633} div.success li {list-style-type: none; } div.form-container form p { margin: 0; } div.form-container form p.note { margin-left: 170px; font-size: 90%; color: #333; } div.form-container form fieldset { margin: 10px 0; padding: 10px; border: #DDD 1px solid; } div.form-container form legend { font-weight: bold; color: #666; } div.form-container form fieldset div { padding: 0.25em 0; } div.form-container label, div.form-container span.label { margin-right: 10px; padding-right: 10px; width: 150px; display: block; float: left; text-align: right; position: relative; } div.form-container label.error, div.form-container span.error { color: #000; } div.form-container select.error, div.form-container div.error {background-color: #FEF;} div.form-container label em, div.form-container span.label em { position: absolute; right: 0; font-size: 120%; font-style: normal; color: #C00; } div.form-container input.error { border-color: #C00; background-color: #FEF; } div.form-container input:focus, div.form-container input.error:focus, div.form-container textarea:focus { background-color: #FFC; border-color: #FC6; } div.form-container div.controlset {margin: 3px} div.form-container div.controlset label, div.form-container div.controlset input { display: inline; float: none; } div.form-container div.controlset div { margin-left: 170px; } div.form-container div.buttonrow { padding-left: 430px; border: 1px solid #CCCCCC } div#wrapper {width: 700px ; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto} pre {color:black; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: bold; margin-left: 30px} </style> </head> <body> <div id="wrapper"> <h1> Form Validation Lab</h1> <div class="form-container"> <?

I have managed to create the majority of it but am having trouble added a menu on each page. It appears on the homepage with the following code: <ul id="headlines"> <?php foreach ( $results['articles'] as $article ) { ?> <li> <h2> <a href=".?action=viewArticle&articleId=<?php echo $article->id?>"><?php echo htmlspecialchars( $article->title )?></a> </h2> </li> <?php } ?> </ul> Once I click on a selection from the menu it takes me to the correct article but there is no menu now. If I try to copy and paste the code from homepage into my viewArticle file it gives me the error messages 'undefined index articles on line 6' and 'invalid argument supplied for for each'. This is the viewArticle code after I pasted in the code from homepage: <ul id="headlines"> <?php foreach ( $results['articles'] as $article ) { ?> <li> <h2> <a href=".?action=viewArticle&articleId=<?php echo $article->id?>"><?php echo htmlspecialchars( $article->title )?></a> </h2> </li> <?php } ?> </ul> <h1 style="width: 75%;"><?php echo htmlspecialchars( $results['article']->title )?></h1> <div style="width: 75%;"><?php echo $results['article']->content?></div> I would really appreciate anybody helping me figure out how I can add the menu onto the viewArticle page. Thanks in advance hello , i have this code: <?php function error_table($err){ echo"<p><span class='textborder'>$err</span></p>"; } ?> in a separate php file and then call it from another php file , like this : $msg_err='bla bla'; error_table($msg_err); when i click the button it shows the text with its border(the class has a border ,color and 1px) but when i have the code inside other if functions it shows it 2 or 3 times... Hey there I've adapted the search code from the tutorial on this site here http://www.phpfreaks.com/tutorial/simple-sql-search for a project I've been working on but have an error. The search works just fine but if either of the messages I've included are tripped (zero search characters or nothing found) then I get a blank screen and the error message is not echoed. (The vanilla code works fine - the error has arisen through the changes I needed to make). I don't know why this is happening and would appreciate some help please. Thanks in advance for any help. Code: [Select] session_start(); // check session variable if (isset($_SESSION['first_name'])) { include ('includes/header_loggedin.html'); //db connection info deleted $error = array(); //get search term, strip it if (isset($_GET['search'])) { $searchTerms = trim($_GET['search']); $searchTerms = strip_tags($searchTerms); // remove any html/javascript. if (strlen($searchTerms) < 1) { $error[] = 'Search terms must be longer than 1 character.'; }else { $searchTermDB = mysql_real_escape_string($searchTerms); // prevent sql injection. } //formulate query if (count($error) < 1) { $query = "SELECT * FROM table WHERE row LIKE '%{$searchTermDB}%'"; //make the query $result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); //display the results if (mysql_num_rows($result) < 1) { $error[] = "Your search term yielded no results."; } else { while ($endresult = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { echo '<br />'; echo 'This is what we found'; echo '<br />'; echo '<a href="newpage.php?w=' . $endresult['row'] . '">' . $endresult['row'] . '</a>'; } } } } } I have a process that runs in the background, so I don't get to see its output. What I would like to do, is if a error occurs (mysql or php) send me an email with the error message(s), then end the process. Any way I can do this? Right now, I am not sure if any errors occur, but I am thinking that they might be happening. So any way for me to get the error would be awesome! I wanna give error messages if the user dont enter their name, email or comments. I trıed to do it but mine didnt work. Please help me do it.

If a warning or error occurs, I don't want the user to see it. Primarily because some of the messages give away hidden file paths that I don't want anyone to know about. I would prefer to redirect all warnings and errors to a log file. If that's not possible, I would like to just hide them. I've googled and can't really find what I'm looking for. PHP.net's manual describes something called display_errors, which doesn't sound bad, but then it says: "Note: This is a feature to support your development and should never be used on production systems (e.g. systems connected to the internet). " http://www.php.net/manual/en/errorfunc.configuration.php#ini.display-errors And I read you can use the @ before any expressions, which I will do if I must, but I don't like it because it's messy. I'd rather there was one thing I could set to say "send all warnings and errors here". Any advice? Thank you! Hello, I am hoping to get some advice on how to make my code work. What I would like to do is display a "you are already subscribed" message if the user experiences error 1062 (duplicate entry) and die, or if it's a different error that occurs I would just like it to display the raw error message and die. I've tried it this and way and that but I'm stumped (obviously I'm also pretty new to this). Here is my code: Quote <?php $con = mysql_connect("localhost"); if (!$con) { die ('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); } mysql_select_db("subscribe", $con); $sql="INSERT INTO subscribe_init (id, notes) values ('$_POST[id]','$_POST[notes]')"; if (!mysql_errno() == 1062) echo 'You are already subscribed.'; elseif (!mysql_query($sql,$con)) die ('Error: ' . mysql_errno() . mysql_error()); else echo "Thank you for signing up!"; mysql_close($con) ?> Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you! This is what I'm getting...

This topic has been moved to CSS Help. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=348687.0 Im trying to create a page that collects personal info from users and registers them. I have a page that contains the registration form which i will call page 1. A second page which I will call page 2, processes the form. A simplified version of page 2 looks like this Code: [Select] <?php if (isset($_POST['submitted'])) { $errors = array(); // Connect to the database. require_once ('config.php'); //Check for errors. //Check to ensure that the password is long enough and is of the right format. if (eregi ("^[[:alnum:]]{8,16}$" , $_POST['password'])) { $b = TRUE; } else { $b = FALSE; $errors[] = 'Please enter a password that consists only of letters and numbers between 8 and 16 characters long.'; } //Check to make sure the password matches the confirmed password. if ($_POST['password'] == $_POST['password2']) { $c = TRUE; $password = $_POST['password']; //Encrypt the password. } else { $c = FALSE; $errors[] = 'The password you entered did not match the confirmed password.'; } //Check to make sure they entered their first name and it's of the right format. if (eregi ("^([[:alpha:]]|-|')+$", $_POST['firstname'])) { $d = TRUE; } else { $d = FALSE; $errors[] = 'Please enter a valid first name.'; } //Check to make sure they entered their last name and it's of the right format. if (eregi ("^([[:alpha:]]|-|')+$", $_POST['lastname'])) { $e = TRUE; } else { $e = FALSE; $errors[] = 'Please enter a valid last name.'; } //Insert data into database. if (empty($errors)) { //query the database. for the sake of simplicity, I wont include the code // Show thank you message echo "<h3>Thank You!</h3> You have been registered"; } else { echo '<font color="red">You could not be registered, please contact us about the problem and we will fix it as soon as we can.</font>'; } //Display error messages. } else {// if errors array is not empty header("Location: page1.php?message=$errors");//Trying to pass the errors array into the url for page1 } } ?> So the idea is to create an array that contains all the errors. Upon querying the database, if the user completed the fields as required, a thank you message is printed. If not, he is redirected to the page containing the form (page 1) and the array containing the errors is transferred to page 1. Now I will include the relevant section of page 1 whihc is supposed to print the error messages. Code: [Select] <?php if(isset($_GET['message']) { echo '<h3>Error!</h3> The following error(s) occured:<br />'; foreach ($errors as $msg) { echo "$msg<br/>\n"; } } ?> I get the following error message when I submit the registration forms with deliberate errors: Error! The following error(s) occured: PHP Error Message Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/a4993450/public_html/register_page_content.php on line 66 Free Web Hosting Can anyone point out why this error occurs? One of my tables was hacked by a couple of morons causing me to create a new one The old table was named lner, the new one is named lner3 which has a couple of extra fields Using a playton script to display and manipulate lner3 works just fine but the script used to put detail in gallery pages just DON'T. I basically get a blank page not even the table Remember this is the working script I am still using with my old table until I get the new one working So header and stuff is all fine and it all checks out with CSS and Validation Code: [Select] <body> <div id="head"> <?php // please note $tble = 'lner3'; // Only the above line has changed from //$tble = 'lner'; $brnum = '60112'; include ("../../include/adsense.php"); include_once("../../include/bsgal_conn.php"); ?> </div> <?php $connect = mysqli_connect($host,$account,$password) OR DIE("Error !! Unable to connect to database"); $db = mysqli_select_db($connect,"$dbname") OR DIE( "Unable to select database "); $db="SELECT * FROM $tble WHERE br_no = $brnum OR other_no = $brnum"; if ($result = mysqli_query($connect,$db)) { if (mysqli_num_rows($result)) { while ($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)){ ?> <div id="main"> <table width="410" align="center" border="4" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="1"> <tr> <th>Class</th> <th>C.M.Engineer</th> <th>Arrangment</th> </tr> <tr> <td><?php echo $row['lclas']."/".$row['class2']; ?></td> <td><?php echo $row['cme']; ?></td> <td><?php echo $row['wheel']; ?></td> </tr> </table> </div> </body> </html> So some hints on debugging why it does not work would be most welcome Thanks Roy...

Sets up a mysqli connection script which I retrieve with included. If a user enters the wrong password or username then the connection to the database will be interrupted, and a message will be given about this. I want to do this in a different way. I want the .php connection script to work so that the script lets me or the ser know if it is the password that is incorrect or the username that is not authenticated. This way the user can find out if he / she has entered the wrong password or username. If both are incorrect, notice of this will be given. connection file is a fairly standard script. I have no clue about how to solve this problem. Is it posible at all? Do you know how to do it?
<? I have finally gotten my registration form to work on my website but i have another question! When for example someone registers at my website and type in the wrong email address, i've set php to give out an error message like "Please enter a valid email address". But that message shows up at the verry top-left corner of my page and makes some objekts move around on my page and you can't click in the <input> fields anymore . How could i make those error messages show up above my registration form at the top of my site and maybe style them with a border and maybe make the text red and so that it doesnt change anything on my page? could i use css for that somehow or what? This is how i show the error messages right now: public function show_errors() { echo "<h3>Errors</h3>"; foreach($this->errors as $key=>$value) echo $value."<br>"; } public function valid_data() { if($this->user_exists()) $this->errors[] = 'Username already taken, choose another one!'; if(empty($this->username)) $this->errors[] = 'Please enter a valid username!'; if(empty($this->first_name)) 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 Ok well i have a virtual world, my friendcoded the emulator. In PHP but he's on holiday for 2 weeks. I keep getting Quote PHP Warning: PHP Startup: It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone setti ngs.
