PHP - Help With Giving Error Codes On Form Submission
hey guys. Right now upon form submission, I do an error check that puts all the errors into an array, then will display them at the top of the form. What I want to do though is break up the array, and be able to give each error msg in its indivdual table row in the html. Right now, my coding is
if($lname == '') { $errmsg_arr[] = 'You must enter your last name'; $errflag = true; } if($email == '') { $errmsg_arr[] = 'You must enter your email address'; $errflag = true; } if($city == '') { $errmsg_arr[] = 'You must enter your city'; $errflag = true; } if($errflag) { $_SESSION['ERRMSG_ARR'] = $errmsg_arr; session_write_close(); header("location: signup_artist.php"); exit(); } thats in form2.php form 1.php has the following snipet of code <?php if( isset($_SESSION['ERRMSG_ARR']) && is_array($_SESSION['ERRMSG_ARR']) && count($_SESSION['ERRMSG_ARR']) >0 ) { echo '<ul class="err">'; foreach($_SESSION['ERRMSG_ARR'] as $msg) { echo '<li>',$msg,'</li>'; } echo '</ul>'; unset($_SESSION['ERRMSG_ARR']); } ?> so basically would I would like to be able to do is identify each error as for instane $fname_error $lname_error etc and then load them into my html appropriately, as opposed to just an array listing them Similar TutorialsHello Everyone, I have created a form for a personal project that I am working on. I have some error checking and stuff in the form but what I would like to happen is when an error has occurred for the page to reopen the form with the error message. I know that this can be done with the header function. But how do I get the form to display the error. Here is the block of code that I am working with Code: [Select] if ($file_error > 0) { header ('Location: add_category.php'); echo "There was an error uploading file."; } else { if ($file_type != $image_array) { header ('Location: add_category.php'); echo "Invalid Image Type"; } if ($file_name == FALSE) { header ('Location: add_category.php'); echo "Please choose a image for your category"; } if ($file_size > 5000000) { header ('Location: add_category.php'); echo "File size is to large. Images must be smaller than 5MB."; } if (str_word_count($description) > 300) { header ('Location: add_category.php'); echo "<p>category description must be less than 300 words<br />You have '.str_word_count($description).' words</p>"; }This is the form code that I am working with Code: [Select] <div id="content"> <form id="add_cat_form" name="add_cat_form" action="do_category.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <fieldset> <legend><p>Add Category</p></legend> <p> <label for="cat_name">Category Name:</label> <input class="input_box" type="text" name="cat_name" id="cat_name" /> </p> <p> <label for="cat_image">Category Image:</label> <input class="file" type="file" name="cat_image" id="cat_image" /> </p> <p> <label for="cat_desc">Description:</label><br /><textarea class="cat_desc" name="cat_desc" id="cat_desc"></textarea><br /> <span id="word_count">300 words Max</span> </p> <input class="submit_button" type="submit" value="Add Category" /> </fieldset> </form> </div> My code looks as follows: include('connectvars.php'); /* REGISTER FORM */ // check if submit button has been clicked if (isset($_POST['submit_signup'])) { // process and assign variables after post submit button has been clicked $user_email = strip_tags(trim($_POST['email'])); $firstname = strip_tags(trim($_POST['firstname'])); $lastname = strip_tags(trim($_POST['lastname'])); $nickname = strip_tags(trim($_POST['nickname'])); $password = $_POST['password']; $repassword = $_POST['repassword']; $dob = $_POST['dob']; $find_us_question = strip_tags(trim($_POST['find_us_question'])); // connect to database $dbc = mysqli_connect(DB_HOST, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD, DB_NAME); $check_query = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE nickname = '$nickname'"; $check_connect = mysqli_query($dbc, $check_query); $check_count = mysqli_num_rows($check_connect); echo $check_count; die(); It's a register (sign up) page, and it's the beginning of the script, the rest of the script is just checking if all fields are a empty and if the input is in the allowed character length etc. I could it off at die(); because the rest doesn't matter. I want the script to check if the username already exists in the database, so I want mysqli_num_rows to tell me how many rows are already there with the same username, and then I want to continue doing an if statement saying if ($check_count != 0) { echo "Username already exists!" } But the mysqli_num_rows doesn't even print out how many rows there are availible, it gives me an error saying: Warning: mysqli_num_rows() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli_result, boolean given in... The num_rows function worked in the login script the same way, but for some reason it's not working in the register script. Any ideas, what I'm doing wrong? For testing purposes I just want it to print me "1" when I'm entering a username that's already in the database. All, I'm getting the following error when I work with a class: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in /webspace/httpdocs/offers/form_key.php on line 5 The complete code for this is class is: <?php class Form_Key { protected $oldKey; public function __construct() { // Ensure we have an available session if ( NULL == session_id() ) { session_start(); } // Grab our former key for validation if ( isset( $_SESSION['form_key'] ) ) { $this->oldKey = $_SESSION['form_key']; } // Assign the new key $_SESSION['form_key'] = md5( uniqid( mt_rand(), TRUE ) ); } public function isValid() { return 'POST' == $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] && isset( $_POST['form_key'] ) && '' != trim( $_POST['form_key'] ) && '' != trim( $this->oldKey ) && $_POST['form_key'] === $this->oldKey; } public function getKey() { return $_SESSION['form_key']; } public function getOldKey() { return $this->oldKey; } public function render() { return '<input type="hidden" name="form_key" value="' . $_SESSION['form_key'] . '" />'; } public function __toString() { return $this->render(); } } ?> The line that is giving the issue is this line: protected $oldKey; Is it ok just to remove this line?? If I comment it out it gives me the same message but for line 7, which is this one: public function __construct() Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance. Hi,
I have a text area field on one of my forms in order for people to post articles, however, it doesn't work when I try and post HTML through it. It works if I post normal text. Also, PHP won't give me an error, it just doesn't insert it?
<?php
if ($_POST['add']) {
$title = addslashes($_POST['title']);
$image = htmlspecialchars($_POST['image']);
$source = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['source']);
$active = $_POST['active'];
$feature = $_POST['feature'];
$cat_id = $_POST['cat_id'];
$content = htmlspecialchars($_POST['content']);
$months = array(
"",
"January",
"February",
"March",
"April",
"May",
"June",
"July",
"August",
"September",
"October",
"November",
"December"
);
$date = date('d', time()) . ' ' . $months[date('n', time())] . ' ' . date('Y', time());
if ($title == NULL || $image == NULL || $content == NULL) {
echo '<br /><br /><center>Please, fill all inputs</center><br /><br />';
} else {

Help :-(
I am using a sloppy 3rd party API that doesn't return error codes, just error messages. See below Code: [Select] $err = $object->getErrorMessage(); if( strlen($err) > 0 ) { header("Location: step1.php?err=$err"); } As you can see this is sloppy because anyone can just modify the address bar of step1.php and inject their own error message, or javascript or their own HTML buttons, etc. As a work around, I thought maybe I could use POST instead of GET... At least then the "err" variable would be hidden for the most part Any ideas how I can work around this? Thanks! got this function in php.net i guess function mywordwrap($string) { $length = strlen($string); for ($i=0; $i<=$length; $i=$i+1) { $char = substr($string, $i, 1); if ($char == "<") $skip=1; elseif ($char == ">") $skip=0; elseif ($char == " ") $wrap=0; if ($skip==0) $wrap=$wrap+1; $returnvar = $returnvar . $char; if ($wrap>8) // alter this number to set the maximum word length { $returnvar = $returnvar . "<wbr>"; $wrap=0; } } return $returnvar; } after using this when i try to validate my page in http://validator.w3.org i get this error Line 124, Column 38: end tag for "wbr" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified <td width="15%">sdfasdfsdfadfddfdfsafasd<wbr>a</td> ✉ You may have neglected to close an element, or perhaps you meant to "self-close" an element, that is, ending it with "/>" instead of ">". what is the fix for this? Hello everyone. I am wondering how can i give different id's to a html form? Code: [Select] <?php ... if ($numrows!=0) { // fetching data from the database to variable while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query)) { $view_jam = $row['jamname']; $view_recipe = $row['jamrecipe']; $view_rating = $row['jamrate']; $view_owner = $row['owner']; $view_comments = $row['comments']; $view_count = $row['count']; $view_id = $row['id']; $view_count2 = $row['count2']; echo "Jam name: <b>" . $view_jam . "</b><br />"; echo "Jam recipe: " . $view_recipe . "<br />"; echo "Owner: " . $view_owner . "<br />"; echo "Comments: " . $view_comments . "<br />"; echo "Jam Rating: " . $view_rating . "<br />"; [b]echo '<form action="main.php?id=jams" method="POST">[/b] Choose rating <input type="text" name="jamrate" /> <input type="submit" name="submit1" value="Rate"> </form><br /><br />'; ... ?>As you can see, the form is inside a loop. I am trying to build a rating system. When there is only one row in a database then everything goes smoothly, but if there are more, then the rating applies to all rows. I suppose i need to give different id's to the form. How? Thank you Where should my Form go once it is submitted? I am reading through some old code, and I was using some pretty convoluted programming to get everything (e.g. error and success messages after form submittal) to work. Basically what I would do was... Code: [Select] HTML to Open Page PHP to Handle Form If Data Okay... Success Message (e.g. "Your account was created!") HTML to close out Page If Data Invalid... Failure Message (e.g. "A System Error occurred. Please contact the Administrator.") HTML to close out Page HTML Form HTML to Close Page I have heard that you should always put your PHP first in the script and then follow it up with your HTML Page and Form. But where should you go once the form is submitted? My second attempt at things - to fix the mess above - was to REDIRECT the user to a "Handling Page" which basically was a large case statement that would read a "processing code" and display the right message. But that seems kind of hokey too?! Can someone help me come up with a more professional and scalable solution?? Thanks, Debbie

Namely, the user clicks a button which starts a server-side operation that can take up to 20 to 30 seconds.
I want a little message to appear below the button that says, "Operation started. This may take upwards of 20 to 30 seconds depending on traffic."
As of now, I have the typical
<form action="post" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];?>">
...
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Make PDF" />
</form>
<?php
if (isset($_POST["submit"]))
{
...
}
?>
The only problem is, part of my PHP code must communicate with a Java server that I have running on the server itself.
So how the site works is, there's the computer I'm renting out and it's running Apache and a custom Java server I wrote myself. Apache handles the web request and upon form submission, PHP opens a socket with the Java server and begins the task. PHP then waits for the connection to close.
hi i have the following contact us form which works fine. i need lil more tweaking. Right now when i submit the form it displays the information "blah blah", "the form has been submitted successfully" and also the form. What i want to do is if the form has been submitted successfully i need not display the form again. I need to display the data before the form field: "Blah Blah"(information before the form code) "the form has been submitted successfully" I do not need to display the form if it has been a successful submission. here is my code: Code: [Select] <?php include($headerpath); //change this to use mysql count function $totalentriesrow = mysql_query("SELECT DISTINCT userid FROM user", $con); $totalentriesrow = mysql_num_rows($totalentriesrow); ?> <title><?PHP echo $site_name; ?> Advertising</title> <BR><BR> <table cellpadding="5" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="white" border="0" width="900" align="center" style='border-top: 1px; border-right: 1px; border-left: 1px; border-bottom: 1px; border-color: black; border-style: solid;'> <tr> <td bgcolor='<?PHP echo $head; ?>' align='left'><b><font color='<?PHP echo $head_font_color; ?>' size='2' face='verdana'><?PHP echo $site_name; ?> Advertising</font></b> Blah Blah Blah Blah </td> </tr> <? //echo '<center><h4><font color="blue"><br>CONTACT US<br></font></h4></center>'; // Create an empty array to hold the error messages. $arrErrors = array(); //Only validate if the Submit button was clicked. if (!empty($_POST['submit'])) { // Each time theres an error, add an error message to the error array // using the field name as the key. if (empty($_POST['first_name'])) $arrErrors['first_name'] = '<br><font color="red">Please provide your first name.</font>'; if (empty($_POST['last_name'])) $arrErrors['last_name'] = '<br><font color="red">Please provide your last name.</font>'; if (empty($_POST['business_name'])) $arrErrors['business_name'] = '<br><font color="red">Please provide your business name.</font>'; if (empty($_POST['website_url'])) $arrErrors['website_url'] = '<br><font color="red">Please provide a website url.</font>'; if (empty($_POST['street_address'])) $arrErrors['street_address'] = '<br><font color="red">Please provide your street address.</font>'; if (empty($_POST['city'])) $arrErrors['city'] = '<br><font color="red">Please provide your city name.</font>'; if (empty($_POST['state'])) $arrErrors['state'] = '<br><font color="red">Please provide your state.</font>'; if (empty($_POST['zip'])) $arrErrors['zip'] = '<br><font color="red">Please provide your zip.</font>'; if (empty($_POST['country'])) $arrErrors['country'] = '<br><font color="red">Please provide your country.</font>'; if (empty($_POST['email_address'])) $arrErrors['email_address'] = '<br><font color="red">A valid email address is required.</font>'; if (empty($_POST['phone']) || (!is_numeric($_POST['phone']))) $arrErrors['phone'] = '<br><font color="red">Phone number cannot be empty and has to be numeric.</font>'; if (empty($_POST['description'])) $arrErrors['description'] = '<br><font color="red">Description cannot be empty.</font>'; // If the error array is empty, there were no errors. // Insert form processing here. if (count($arrErrors) == 0) { $first_name=cleaninput($_POST['first_name']); $last_name=cleaninput($_POST['last_name']); $business_name=cleaninput($_POST['business_name']); $website_url=cleaninput($_POST['website_url']); $street_address=cleaninput($_POST['street_address']); $city=cleaninput($_POST['city']); $state=cleaninput($_POST['state']); $zip=cleaninput($_POST['zip']); $country=cleaninput($_POST['country']); $email_address=cleaninput($_POST['email_address']); $phone=cleaninput($_POST['phone']); $description=cleaninput($_POST['description']); $to = $advertising_contacts; $subject = "Advertisement Contact"; $message="You have a new advertising contact<br>"; $message.="<b>First name:</b> ".stripslashes($first_name)."<br><b>Last Name:</b> ".stripslashes($last_name); $message.="<br><b>Business Name:</b> ".stripslashes($business_name)."<br><b>Business Description: </b>".stripslashes($description)."<br><b>Business URL:</b> ".stripslashes($website_url); $message.="<br><b>Street Address:</b> ".stripslashes($street_address)."<br><b>City:</b> ".stripslashes($city); $message.="<br><b>State:</b> ".stripslashes($state)."<br><b>Zip:</b> ".stripslashes($zip)."<br><b>Country:</b> ".stripslashes($country); $message.="<br><b>Email:</b> ".stripslashes($email_address)."<br><b>Phone:</b> ".stripslashes($phone); $from = "webmaster@example.com"; $headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' .

HI All - Hoping you can help me out here with an issue that's preventing me from posting a form. I am still stumbling my way through this. I have a form that submits to itself with php code that uses a $curlhandle to post to a remote server, return xml data and parse it. The submission to the remote server works perfectly and the data returned is fine. The problem I am having is that when the form page initially loads in the browser, it thinks the form is already trying to submit, and it returns an error message for the first blank field. The error message is from the remote site. There is no database involved with this and the information does not need to be saved, just displayed on the same page the form resides on. So, is there a way I can load the page with the form without getting the error message from the remote site? Hello Everybody
Im new to this forum. Im trying to submit a form to my database but it's not passing through. when I submit the form an error message. I don't know if it is because I declare the escape_data fucntion wrongly. Any help would be appreciated. Here are my codings
