PHP - Php To Action Script? Help!
Hi everyone
I am trying to pass a php variable ($R1 = 1) in to action script flash 8. After this variable is in flash 8 I want the action script to do a if statement that says if the php variable is = 1 then display layer or object. However i am not sure how to do this any help would be great thanks Freid001 PS if this is not possible to do with php and action script please say thanks Similar TutorialsYou would think the answer would be all over the Internet and easy to find, but it’s not. I have searched many times, and in all the multitude of search results I have still never found an adequate usable answer. The MOST you ever find is someone saying how easy it is with PHP, but they don’t tell you how, even when the person they are answering asks them (odd). You can be that one in a billion person who finally answers it for real and helps someone out. I have a simple HTML form with data fields first_name, last_name, email, phone, country, a few hidden inputs, and a single submit button, like so: (Please note: the method is GET, not Post.) <form action="https://MyDomainOnMyServer.com/MyPHPScript.php”> <input type="text" name="first_name" value="" /> <input type="text" name="last_name" value="" /> <input type="text" name="email" value="" /> <input type="text" name="phone" value="" /> <input type="hidden" name="type" value="type123"> <input type="hidden" name="project" value="new123"> <select required name="country"> <option value="">Choose your country</option> <option value="US">United States</option> <option value="CA">Canada</option> <option value="GB">United Kingdom</option> <option value="Many More">Many More Countries</option> </select> <input type="submit" value="Submit Form" /> </form> NOTE: Originally, the form action would have been: action="https://TheirExampleDomainOnTheirRemoteServer.com/TheirRemotePHPScript.php" name="form1234" Upon clicking the single submit button only, what I need to have happen is this: 1. Send me an email to whatever@whatever.tld containing all the form submission data 2. Place the form submission data into a MySQL database having the corresponding data fields 3. Send the form submission contents including the hidden input values to "https://TheirExampleDomainOnTheirRemoteServer.com/TheirRemotePHPScript.php" name="form1234" AS IF that had remained set as the original form action to begin with So basically what I’m trying to obtain is the cleanest possible PHP script that will do those three things, which is essentially what others have asked for over the years in search results I have found, but no one has ever provided it in a clear instance that works. If I can just see such a script, I should be able to see how it works and then do what I need. Thanks. Reply Hi I am building a class to manage site users (Via a CMS). In order to complete this I am building a delete/remove user function/method. Things are going ok (I think), but I am confused about what to put in the action tag of the form being used to process the data. Before coding my method, I referred to a script that someone showed me which does something similar in functionality: it deletes photos previously uploaded to a folder, and also removes the associated information from the database. I used this script as the framework for the code that I am working with. Eveything seems to be working fine - EXCEPT - when I click on the 'delete users' button, nothing happens. The first thing that I examined for error was the action attribute within my form. The value of the action attribute is: action = "<? php htmlentities($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]) ?>" This format has worked for previous forms. I compared this to the action attribute within the script that I was using as a guide. It's value is set as follows: action = "remove_photo.php?<?php echo "action='godel' ";?> In this instance, remove_photo.php is the file that is being used to both process and display the form. The reference script works perfectly but it uses a procedural approach . For my application, I am using a more object oriented approach, so both my opening and closing form tag elements are stored in a seperate file to the class file that processes it. I am new to OO but relatively comfortable with the paradigm so far (my other methods etc are working fine). I therefore suspect that the reason for my script's inability to process is due to the action attribute setting (I cannot be 100% sure of course!). I am going to therefore apply the action attribute settings used successfully in the reference script, to the application that I am building. However, the trouble is, I don't understand it I don't like it when something works, but I can't see the logic behind why it does. I am not concerned about the form id or method attrbutes. I understand what is going on there - and why they are set as they are. However, the action attribute is very difficult to understand for the following reasons: 1/ There is no variable/method/entity/object/ANYTHING called 'godel' elsewhere in the reference script. For this reason I thought that it might not be needed, so removed the bit of code within PHP tags concerning it: <?php echo "action='godel' ";?> - When I did this - the script didn't work. In fact - nothing at all would process. This was a similar result to what was happening with the script I am building. 2/ I then put the PHP line back in, but replaced 'godel' with 'something'. I saved and processed the form. - it worked. 3/ I then tried it again replacing 'godel' with an empty string i.e: ' '. - it worked. Has anyone come across forms being processed in a similar way before? If so, please could you explain what is happening here. I can't find anything relating to this type of occurence online.... I am going to place the php tags in the file I am building, to see if it has the desired effect. If it does, I will obviously keep it. But not understanding what is happening, or why it is happening is very annoying!! Thanks Hello everyone from a php newbie, I have a option selections box and need to select an action depending on the results. Its for an insert script for items into a Database and depending on the chosen option it add the picture to the DB table The selection options are <select name="extension" style="font-size:18px"><option value="pdf">PDF</option><option value="zip">ZIP</option><option value="powerpoint">PowerPoint</option></select> the Swtich is switch $_POST['extention']{ case 'zip': echo $insert_image = $_POST['extension'].'winzip.gif'; break; case 'powerpoint': echo $insert_image = $_POST['extension'].'ppt.gif'; break; default: echo $insert_image = $_POST['extension'].'products/pdf.gif'; } Would someone please tell me if this is correct syntax? Or have i got it horribly wrong! Thank you for your a help Charlie I know that PHP is server-side, but I wondered whether anyone had a similar issue that they got around... here's my problem... I've made a psycho-analysis tool for Facebook where it runs your Facebook friends through a database of words to get their psychological preferences (that all works)... I then have a link so that users can tell their friends about the service (it's free, so I want to get it to spread virally) but I'm having a few issues with the link... At the moment, it all works from a Facebook point of view, but when they click on the link, it takes them to an almost-blank page with a bit of code on it. I know what this code is and why it's there, but I'd like to hide it behind a branded page, ideally with Ajax. When I tried to use Ajax for it, it wouldn't accept the URL that was sent. The link has to have a URL sent to Facebook like this: Code: [Select] https://graph.facebook.com/feed?access_token=149324721793321|HarGd6ioqoroENE9gv2758rfeYY&message=I%27ve+just+psycho-analysed+my+Facebook+friends+using+Manteya%27s+Facebook+Friend+Checker+%28http%3A%2F%2Fwww.manteya.com%2Ffacebook-friend-checker%29+so+that+I+can+communicate+better+with+you.&id=100001925276042 but for obvious reasons, you can't post it as an Ajax variable by using the: Code: [Select] http://www.url.com/test.php?id=$variable; Is there a way I can get around the problem? I guess the issue is that Facebook needs the detail in the URL, but PHP won't let me send it like this. I have thought about uploading the URL to a database and shortening the URL, then posting that, which would then re-direct, but that's a messy way around I'm sure you smart people have done something like this before. To see my existing (almost) working example, visit http://www.manteya.com/ffc Thanks, Neil echo(" <form method = \"get\" action = \"DeleteApp.php?pname=\" . $Applications['Name'] . \"> <input value='Delete' type='submit' /> </form> "); Why is this redirecting to: DeleteApp.php?. Instead of what you can obviously see what it's supposed to redirect to. When I click the save changes button, I want the user to be brought back to profile.php. Right now they are being brought to editprofile.php. I currently have the form action set to editprofile.php . When the I change it to profile.php my fields won't update. Any thoughts as to where I went wrong? Here is the editprofile.php code. <form action='editprofile.php' method="POST" id="form"> I have an action that will take a long time to finish, so how can I run this action in background? So I will not have to wait it ends... im making this tool to clean up some data from a sql database, i made a php code to list what i need, thats player name,lvl and id from table_A, the problem is i want to delete from table_A and from table_B all the results from php code , they have in common the id and as a condition the lvl must be lower then 10, it seems i cant make it delete from table_B also,please help me!! a button of the end of the page to delete all that includes same id from both tables is what im looking for! Code: [Select] <table<?php echo $tableSet; ?>> <tr> <td width="*" align="center">Rank</td> <td width="*" align="center"><font color="#000000">Name</td> <td width="*" align="center"><font color="#000000">money</td> <td width="*" align="center"><font color="#000000">id</td> <td width="*" align="center"><font color="#000000">lvl</td> </tr> <?php $rank = mysql_query('SELECT name,money,id,level FROM table_A WHERE level < 10 ' .' ORDER by level desc LIMIT '.$limit.';'); $i=1; while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($rank)) { echo '<tr><td align="center">'.$i.'.</td> <td align="center"><font color="#0000FF">'.$row['name'].'</td> <td align="center"><font color="#0000FF">'.$row['money'].'</td> <td align="center"><font color="#0000FF">'.$row['id'].'</td> <td align="center"><font color="#FF0000">'.$row['level'].'</td> </tr> '; $i++; } ?>this is showing which player names goes to id(from table_A) i need to delete from table_a where the ids shown are lower then lvl 10(the ones result from code above) and same ids from table_b (the rank is just to show me ho is highest lvl) Hi,

echo("<form method='post' action='{$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}'>"); echo("<form method='post' action=''>"); Hi all, I my making a site which to be easier i have made a querystring statement, but the issue is that when accessing /?action= shows index and ?action=register shows register great!, when accessing root / of the site or index.php and displays Undefined index: action , when clearly i have defined action with $id, so why is php saying it is not. I know there is the option for error_reporting(0), but i want to know why this is happening. Edit: the script is, and runs fine other than the error! Code: [Select] <?php $id = "action"; $string = $_GET["$id"]; if ($string == "register") { echo 'register'; } else { echo 'index'; } ?> Many Thanks Hello I am trying to get an action status based on e.g attackers_1 troops.

Hi I was thinkin that I wanna make a simulor function to the one they use on betting site... User sees Team1 vs Team2 When he clicks "team2" it gets registered somewhere before he clicks "bet" wich inserts all his bets somewhere. Hi, I'm creating a PHP application to handle my SQL server and I've run into a bit of a problem; I have two files atm: mainClass.php and testSite.php My mainClass.php looks like this: Code: [Select] class mainClass { private $host = 'localhost'; public function createDb($user,$pass,$dbName) { $con = mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass); if (!$con){ die('Could not connect: '.mysql_error()); } $sql = "CREATE DATABASE `$dbName`;"; if (!mysql_query($sql)){ die('Error 1: '.mysql_error()); } mysql_close(); } }and testSite.php looks like this: Code: [Select] <!DOCTYPE HTML> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="UTF-8"> </head> <body> <h1>testSite for my PHP app</h1> <?php function __autoload($className){ require_once "./classes/{$className}.php"; } $test = new mainClass(); ?> <form name='createDb' method='post' action=''> User: <input type='text' name='user'><br> Password: <input type='password' name='pass'><br> dbName: <input type='text' name='dbName'><br> <input type='submit' value='Create DB'> </form> </body> </html> What I'm asking is if it is possible to make the form-action from testSite.php run the createDb function from mainClass.php I have pretty much no idea how to do it but I tried like this: Code: [Select] <form name='createDb' method='post' action="<?php $test->createDb($_POST['user'],$_POST['pass'],$_POST['dbName']); ?>"> User: <input type='text' name='user'><br> Password: <input type='password' name='pass'><br> dbName: <input type='text' name='dbName'><br> <input type='submit' value='Log in'> </form>But that just made the whole form disappear so now I'm completely lost, any help greatly appreciated. PS: I'm doing this to get better at PHP so please don't come with advice like "use a framework" or "there already are applications that handles this", I know there is. I'm making a simple shopping cart. I have a strange issue when I add a product to the cart - the correct id registers ("1"), but the size registers as "0" when it should be "sizel". Can anyone see why is this happening? <?php if (isset ($_GET['action']) && $_GET ['action'] == add || size) { $id = intval($_GET['id']); $_SESSION['cart'][] = $id; $size = intval($_GET['size']); $_SESSION['cart'][] = $size; } $cart = $_SESSION['cart']; if (!$cart) { echo "No product in cart."; } elseif ($cart) { foreach ($_SESSION['cart'] as $id) { echo $id; } foreach ($_SESSION['cart'] as $size) { echo $size; } } ?> Code: [Select] <A href="index.html?action=add&id=1&size=sizel">Add to cart</A> It has been brought to my attention that $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; can be easily hacked. In this code... Code: [Select] <form id="login" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="post"> Do I even need anything in the Action attribute if I am redirecting the form to itself?! Please advise... Debbie My question is, when someone make same html form with action that goes on same php file on my server, so i need to know, can my site be hacked in that way ?
