PHP - Transferring Data To New Php On Clicked Link
I have a page that reads from a database to list employees from different states. Under each name is a link that pulls up a new window with a contact form. My goal is to get the name from that link to appear on that new window. (Which I will then use to ultimately add the name into the email that was generated so the recipient can know who the email was intended for.)
I've tried using the GET and POST methods but nothing seems to work. Any help would be appreciated greatly. I will name my firstborn after anything you desire. I've included my code below. (The last line is what I've been primarily working with) Code: [Select] //Open Database Connection $db = open_db_connection(); $sql = "SELECT DISTINCT 1 from users where active = 'Y' and show_on_contactus = 'Y'"; $results = mysql_query($sql, $db); $emaillink = "<a target='main' onclick=window.open('contactform/contactCentral.php?name=$state_row[state]','popup','width=380,height=400,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=yes,directories=no,location=no,menubar=yes,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false>"; if(!mysql_num_rows($results) == FALSE) while($row = mysql_fetch_array($results, MYSQL_BOTH)) { echo "<ul id=\"directors\">\n"; $state_sql = "SELECT * from users where active = 'Y' and show_on_contactus = 'Y' and state_full = 'indiana' order by last_name"; $state_results = mysql_query($state_sql, $db); if(!mysql_num_rows($results) == FALSE) { while($state_row = mysql_fetch_array($state_results, MYSQL_BOTH)) { echo "<li>\n"; echo " <div class=\"fl dirimg\">\n"; if($state_row[photo] == "") { echo "<img border=\"0\" width=\"61\" height=\"85\" src=\"images/exe_placeholder.jpg\" alt=\"$state_row[first_name] $state_row[last_name]\" />\n"; } else { echo "<img border=\"0\" width=\"61\" height=\"85\" src=\"n2team/pictures/$state_row[photo]\" alt=\"$state_row[firstname] $state_row[last_name]\" />\n"; } echo " </div>\n"; echo " <span class=\"fr\">$state_row[first_name] $state_row[last_name]<br />\n"; echo " $state_row[title]<br />\n"; echo " $state_row[city], $state_row[state]<br />\n"; echo " $emaillink Contact $state_row[first_name] </a></span></li>\n"; } Similar Tutorialshi, I have a webpage that is driven by a database mostly. it has a catalog of dog treats and most will transfer to the checkout page but 2 two won't. I have checked the database and everything looks fine if it would help, here 's the webpage. http://auntievics.com/treats.php. it's the Cara The Flirt's K9 Canoli Stuffed and the Cara The Flirt's K9 Canoli Unstuffed that won't transfer. Any help would be appreciated. I have the following code Code: [Select] while($player = mysql_fetch_array($players)) { #Lets loop through all the players echo "<BR><input type=submit onclick=this.form.action='points.php?points=".$_GET['points']."&player=".$player['playerID']."&playerName=".$player['name']."' value='".$player['name']."'>"; }but the problem is that $player['name'] is always two words and it doesn't work. So I have removed '&playerName=".$player['name']."' but now don't know how to transfer that info. Is there a way of having the player name in the header or another way of sending this data to the next page? Another way of doing it is to check for the players name via there playerID number but this involves another call to the database which I am trying to avoid. Sorry, I initially posted this in the Ajax Help Thread, but thinking about it, I suspect this is a php query.
I am trying to write a basic Private Messaging script.
I have my main page which lists all messages that have been received. I then want to click on an href link to run an ajax query to bring information in from another .php file which shows the content of the selected message.
But I can't fathom out how to do this with an href. First off, is it possible? If so, can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
The relevant script is:
privatemessage.php:
<?php $query2 = DB::getInstance()->query("SELECT c.id as cid, c.title, c.time, m.id as membersid, m.username, m.member_first_name, m.member_last_name FROM conversation as c, members as m WHERE ((c.member1='{$memberid}' and c.read1='Yes' and c.removed1='No' and m.id=c.member2) OR (c.member2='{$memberid}' and c.read2='Yes' and c.removed2='No' and m.id=c.member1)) GROUP BY m.id ORDER BY m.id DESC"); ?> <table> <tr> <td align="left"> <?php echo htmlentities($result2->member_first_name); ?> <?php echo htmlentities($result2->member_last_name); ?> <?php echo "("; echo htmlentities($result2->username); echo ")"; ?> </td> <td align="right"> <?php echo timeAgo(strtotime($result2->time)); ?> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" align="left"> <form action="" method="post"> <?php echo "Subject: "; ?> <?php echo "<input type='hidden' name='id' id='id' value='{$result2->cid}'>"; ?> <a href="#$result2->cid" onClick="showMessages(this.value)"><?php echo htmlentities($result2->title); ?> </form> <script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.js"></script> <script src="js/readmessage.js"></script> </td> </tr> </table> <div id="txtMessage"></div>My readmessage.js code is: function showMessages(str) { if (str=="") { document.getElementById("txtMessage").innerHTML=""; return; } if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {// code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest(); } else {// code for IE6, IE5 xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); } xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function() { if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200) { document.getElementById("txtMessage").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText; } } xmlhttp.open("GET","readmessage.php?q="+str,true); xmlhttp.send(); }And my readmessage.php code is: ?php require 'core/memberinit.php'; $member = new Member(); include 'timeago.php'; $memberid = $member->data() ->id; if(isset($_GET['q'])) { $q = html_entity_decode($_GET['q']); $req1 = DB::getInstance()->query("SELECT title, member1, member2 FROM conversation WHERE id='{$q}' AND id2='1'"); foreach ($req1->results() as $dn1) if($req1->count()==1) { if(($dn1->member1=='{$memberid}') or ($dn->member2=='{$memberid}')) { if($dn1->member1=='{$memberid}') { DB::getInstance()->query("UPDATE conversation SET read1='Yes' where id='{$q}' and id2='1'"); $user_partic = 2; } else { DB::getInstance()->query("UPDATE conversation SET read2='Yes' where id='{$q}' and id2='1'"); $user_partic = "1"; } $req2 = DB::getInstance()->query("SELECT conversation.time, conversation.message, members.id as userid, members.username, members.member_first_name, members.member_last_name FROM conversation, members WHERE conversation.id='{$id}' AND members.id=conversation.member1 ORDER BY conversation.id2"); if(isset($_POST['message']) and $_POST['message']!='') { $message = $_POST['message']; if(get_magic_quotes_gpc()) { $message = stripslashes($message); } $message = $string(nl2br(htmlentities($message, ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8'))); if( DB::getInstance()->query("INSERT into conversation (id, id2, title, member1, member2, message, time, read1, read2) VALUES('{$q}', '{(intval($req2->id2)+1)}', '', '{$memberid}', '', '{$message}', '.time().', '', '')") and DB::getInstance()->query("UPDATE conversation SET read'{$user_partic}'='Yes' WHERE id='{$q}' AND id2='1'")); } echo "<h4>"; echo $dn1->title; echo "</h4><br><br>"; echo "<table><col width='150px'><col width='50px'><col width='150px'>"; echo "<tr><th>Member</th><th> </th><th>Message</th></tr>"; foreach ($req2->results() as $dn2) { echo "<tr><td>"; echo $dn2->members.member_first_name; echo $dn2->members.member_last_name; echo " ("; echo $dn2->members.username; echo ") </td><td></td><td>"; echo timeAgo(strtotime($dn2->time)); echo "<br>"; echo $dn2->message; echo "</td></tr>"; } echo "</table>"; } } } ?>However, just to try and find where the error lies, I have tried the following code for my readmessage.php file: <?php require 'core/memberinit.php'; $member = new Member(); include 'timeago.php'; $memberid = $member->data() ->id; if(isset($_GET['q'])) { $q = intval($_GET['q']); echo $q; } ?>Which always returns a "0" reply - which says to me that my files are talking, but that the id isn't being carried across. Anybody got any suggestions? Many thanks for any help offered. Is it possible to have a link like this, http://www.somesite.com/?id=243 and transfer the "id" (or another query string) into the website from the link but at the same time, not affect the website (since "id" isn't a query string originally used in the website's URL)? I hope that makes sense.. Hey there, I was wondering if this is possible with mysql, my goal is to transfer the users id from the users table to the id field in my status table, thanks in advance. NOTE: Not manually, through a script. Hi, I am a curious fellow just beginning to use PHP. I understand the basics of what the $_GET and $_POST superglobals do, and how we can use them to retrieve data after form submission. I also know that since $_GET and $_POST are just associate arrays, we can create our own values in both $_GET and $_POST by writing statements like $_POST['variable'] = "value". I am wondering if it is at all possible to send data beyond form data by adding new key/value pairs into $_GET and $_POST. So for example, if I had a form that transferred username/password through Post, would it be possible for me to include further data by just saying $_POST['formtype'] = "house_insurance_form"? Basically what I'm getting at is trying to physically add your own data to $_POST or $_GET that you could pull from the next page where the form redirects to. In other words, can I send data beyond form data using these superglobals? I know I can do this with $_SESSION, but could I do it through $_POST or $_GET? I haven't been able to accomplish this, and I was just wondering if someone could give me an in-depth explanation of how this might work or how this is not possible. I would really really really appreciate it. Best Regards, -Sky Hi guys,
I am having a problem transferring data between pages, using PHP sessions. I have a HTML SELECT drop-down to let user set the number of posts per page to display. <form method="POST" style="margin:auto;position:relative;width:35%;padding:17px;top:47px;"> <span>select posts-per-page:</span> <select name="ppp"> <option selected disabled>--select ppp--</option> <option value=10>10</option> <option value=15>15</option> <option value=20>20</option> <option value=50>50</option> <option value=100>100</option> </select> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="OK"/> </form> I want to transfer the value selected by user to a session so that I can load the value in other pages. The value of posts per page is carried by variable $ppp; so, file1 contains the code $_SESSION['ppp'] = $ppp; That seems to work great; the system updates correctly the session's value as user submits different numbers of posts-per-page.
The problem is in page2.php: it doesn't update to the new user's selection; I already have a session active in that page so I don't need session_start(). To call the session, I use the line $ppp=$_SESSION['ppp']; When user changes the selection from 50 to 100 posts per age, for example, the value of page1.php changes as expected, but the value transferred to page2.php doesn't change, appears to remain with the default value the page loads with. I don't know if the problem is that I already have a session going. Can you have more than one session running simultaneously in a page? Can anybody help? Thanks in advance!
Sept I have a "Members" page that displays my organizations members info via My SQL. Currently, the database displays "State" quick links at the top and has the members organized by State down the page. If you click on one of the State links at the top, it will navigate to the section of the page with that state and associated members. I want the members associated with a specific state to be displayed only once I click the associated state link -- instead of all of the information showing at once like it is now. The page I am referring to can be seen at this link: http://homesforhorse...rs.com/members/

User sees Team1 vs Team2 When he clicks "team2" it gets registered somewhere before he clicks "bet" wich inserts all his bets somewhere. Hello, I had a web page which had sharing (share issue on facebook, twitter....) and I want to record what each user had shared. So, they will click on alink to share it. I want to call a php function when the user click on a link, whats the best method to do this? Thanks in advance Hi there, I've been tasked with the job of re-doing the company website from scratch and I'm having a bit of trouble with some of the logic involved as I'm not a web designer by trade. Or by any reasonable stretch of the imagination. Anywhoot, what I'm struggling with is this: I have laid out the website so for each of the core business units there is one php page, call it 'page x'. On page x there are two sections; a sidebar and a content section. At the top of page x there is a menu bar with a links to a different category (eg. services, products, about, contacts, etc). What I have at the moment for page x is an INCLUDE statement in each of the subsection which pulls through a html page and plops it down in the right place. What I am struggling with is how to use the links at the top of the page to pull through a different html page depending on what link I click. I was thinking that I could use something a couple of variables, $sidebar and $content, and then some kind of on-click function to pass a string to each of the variables and then use the INCLUDE statement to call the correct pages. What I have tentatively come up with is this : Code: [Select] <a href=#><img src="/MS_Images/service_hlight.jpg" width="100" height="42" onclick=$sidebar = "OutsourceIT_Website/Managed Services/services_side.html" /></a> and then: Code: [Select] <?php include $sidebar; ?> Would this work in principle? How do I go about making sure that the variable in the link is declared properly? Is there a better way to go about doing this that I am missing due to my ignorance? Hope someone can help because Uncle Google is getting fed up with my vague search terms. I know with a submit button I can have a new record created when clicking it, but is it possible to do with a text link? Transferring data from sub-domain.site.com Reading sub-domain.site.com What is this all about? I'm going to put all .. images into a separate sub-domain eg: images.site.com. This would create a folder inside my public_HTML called "images" Now when sites have that Transferring data, and Reading... is this .. something relating to what I want. Facebook also does it, and they get their images for the site from a sub domain, how is it all done? I'm not sure if its entirely PHP, but I hope someone can help. Thanks Hi, I'm not super fluent in PHP or whatnot, but I currently have a website set up with an index.php to load the content pages within it. As part of the template, it consists of a header image, links, a photo, and a video. The content of each page loads within the specified area below the "template". Here's my question: My client wants to see a specific picture when they click one of hte links. For example, if they clicked on spot removal, the image beside the navigation should show spot removal and stay there on the index page while the content page, spot removal is shown. Does this make sense? I need help and fast. Screenshot included in attachment. And like I said, I'm not super fluent in PHP/MYSQL, so be very detailed when talking about what to do. I'd appreciate the help. Thanks, hello friends I'm dealing with this problem for two days. I put here the screenshot for easier understanding.Sorry about my bad english. Here is the ss http://i61.tinypic.com/2rz5q55.jpg I don't want to inner join or table join. All image links which same sku should displayed in single row where products.resimler colon I can join the tables but i want to one table.Because i can import single csv file for e-commerce script.How can I use a update query for list multiple images in table products. Edited by nogai, 10 October 2014 - 07:01 AM. I feel like a moron asking this question as it seems to be one of the most common things done with php but I cannot find a tutorial (probably because I don't know the correct wording to search under) on this specific thing.. Anyhow. I'm spitting out a list of the Titles of my test table like so (and its working as expected): <?php $posting_sql = "SELECT * FROM postings"; $posting_results = (mysqli_query($cxn, $posting_sql)) or die("Was not able to grab the Postings!"); while($posting_row = mysqli_fetch_array($posting_results)) { echo "<li><a href='posting_details.php'>$posting_row[title]</a></li>"; } ?> Now as you can see: <a href='posting_details.php'> I am calling a new page, and that page contains this: <h2><?php echo "$posting_row[title]"; ?></h2> <p><?php echo "$posting_row[description]"; ?></p> It's no surprise it's not working (with many variations etc), but I am only familiar with using <form> GET or POST, and these of course are not form elements, so I cant seem to call them the same way. My suspicion (and from the research data I could find) is that I need to pass values in my link: <a href='posting_details.php'> ... I could not get it to work, but I was trying variations like: <a href='posting_details.php?get[title&get[description]]'> but it seems like I am screwing things up even more by doing this.. Anyhow. If anyone could show me a tutorial that covers this specifically or some suggestions on the best approach to this would be much appreciated.. Hi, Is it possible to build a PHP Template page that selects and publishes a row of data from a MySQL Database when a linked is clicked? I would design: Template.php Text links (perhaps on homepage of navigation bar): ProductA, ProductB and ProductC If you click link ProductA Template.php would display data for ProductA and likewise for ProductB and ProductC. I would also like search engines for find ProductA, ProductB and ProductC PHP pages. (Not just my single Template.php) Any ideas as to how this could be done without designing individual PHP pages for each product? Kind regards, Matthew. hello, i am transferring the post number from a forum page, to a non-forum page via url variables.. how do i stop someone editing the url variable and viewing the posts concerned? i thought i could possibly use cookies/or a kind of auto-post form.. please help if you can.. just what to google would be appreciated 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?
