PHP - Pass Information Back To Form

Hi 

Having thought the PHP form was working OK, I took a break. Upon return, it's up to its old tricks.

Could anyone glance over this code for blatant errors?

It works when it wants and when it doesn't...

Much appreciated

Hello, I want to use this function in form. How can I pass parameter in form ? please help me. Thanks

<?php
function displayName($fetch)
{
echo "your Name is ".$fetch;
}

?>

I have a purchase order displaying on a site that the user can edit quantities for. I want them to be able to hit submit and it takes that form and submits it to some code that auto creates a PDF with it.

The PDF part is easy, I use DOMPDF to create that and it works fine, I just can't seem to get the values passed through. I can easily pass the values of just the input boxes through the $_POST but I don't want to have to recreate the PDF setup after the post. I'd rather just use some Javascript or something to grab the innerHTML of a <div> element and somehow make it available after the form is submitted so the PHP code can use it to send to DOMPDF.

The form submits to itself and I have a piece of code at the top of the page which will create the PDF, I just need the <div> contents and I'm done. How do I get it? I could set it into a hidden variable but the reason I'm not doing that is because for some reason when I assign the big table which contains the whole purchase order into the hidden variable and then try to print it, it comes out all messed up. I don't know why and I'd rather just find another way than attempt to figure that out.

here's my html form:
<form action="contact2.php" method="post" target="_self" id="contactform">
                <ol>
                  <li>
                    <label for="name2">Your Name <span class="red">*</span></label>
                    <input id="name2" name="name2" class="text" />
                  </li>
                  <li>
                    <label for="youremail">Your email <span class="red">*</span></label>
                    <input id="youremail" name="youremail" class="text" />
                  </li>
                  <li>
                    <label for="company2">Company</label>
                    <input id="company2" name="company2" class="text" />
                  </li>
                  <li>
                    <label for="subject2">Subject</label>
                    <input id="subject2" name="subject2" class="text" />
                  </li>
                  <li>
                    <label for="message2">Message <span class="red">*</span></label>
                    <textarea id="message2" name="message2" rows="6" cols="50"></textarea>
                  </li>
                  <li class="buttons">
                    <input type="image" name="imageField" id="imageField" src="images/send.gif" />
                  </li>
                </ol>
              </form>

Here's my php code:

<?PHP
global $_POST;
$name = $_POST["name2"];
$youremail = $_POST["youremail"];
$company = $_POST["company2"];
$subject = $_POST["subject2"];
$message = $_POST["message2"];

$to = "ldemotts@market-johnson.com";
$subject = "Form Submission";
$headers = "From: $youremail\n";

$message = "A visitor to your site has filled out the following information.\n
Name: $name2
Email Address: $youremail
Company: $company2
Subject: $subject2
Message: $message2";

if (preg_match(' /[\r\n,;\'"]/ ', $_POST['youremail'])) {
  exit('Invalid Email Address');
}
else {
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
}

Hi Guys,

I need a bit of help. I need to post a value to a second page, but I want the button to have the same name.

The page is to show registered users and then allows a user to send a friend request 'to put it in simple terms'.

Username submitbutton username submitbutton And then i do the following

<?php
foreach ($_POST['username') as $user
{
echo $user;
}
?>
How could i go about doing this or would I have to use a 'Hidden' Field.

Ok what I am trying to do it make a simple form. Once the user has eneter all the details and clicked submit I want this information to be sent to me in an email.

So far I have got the email sending but i am just having trouble getting the information to be displayed correctly in the email that is sent.

For the subject I want first name last name <email>.

And then for the main message of the email I want the information from the form to displayed something like the following.

First  Name : '$fname'
Last Name : '$lname'


and so on for all the variables i have collected from the online form.

Here is what I have got so far and I would appreciate any help you can give me thanks.

Hello everyone. I am writing this order/feedback form using a php script. Every time i hit submit, the html page (that has the form inside) just reloads and does not perform the script  could anyone give me some pointers in my code the form/php? I have made sure they are linked verbatim I am a nube so please forgive my inexperience   Here is the form in the html , down below it is the corresponding php code for the form    

I'll be having .txt files uploaded via a form.  Upon submission, it will be passed to another .php file to have the data entered into the database.  

It's not uploading the file to the folder, and while the trigger echoes what's set up to echo, it's loading the data into the database.  

 

Here is the form:

	 echo '<form action="/wp-content/plugins/csi_stats/csi_process.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
	  Select Boxscore to upload:
	  <input type="file" name="fileToUpload" id="fileToUpload">
	  <input type="submit" value="Upload" name="submit">
	</form>';
	
 }

 Here is csi_process.php

$filename = $_FILES['fileToUpload']['name'];


$target_dir = "/wp-content/uploads/csi_boxscores/21/";
$target_file = $target_dir . basename($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["name"]);
$uploadOk = 1;
$imageFileType = strtolower(pathinfo($target_file,PATHINFO_EXTENSION));


// Check if image file is a actual image or fake image
if(isset($_POST["submit"])) {
 // $check = getimagesize($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["tmp_name"]);
 
    echo $target_file . ' Boxscore Sent';
    echo '<br>' .$filename;
    $uploadOk = 0;
  
}

$query = "
    LOAD DATA INFILE '$fileName'
     INTO TABLE a_stats
     FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|' 
     LINES TERMINATED BY '\r\n'
     IGNORE 2 Lines
    (jersey,points,2pm,2pa,3pm,3pa,ftm,fta,oreb,dreb,treb,ast,blk,stl,deflect,turn,charge,pf,tf)
    SET team = 426";

"team" will ultimately be a variable, and I'll have "game" in there too.  

 

 

 

Here is the data:

Currently I have a PHP file that is pulling information from a table in the Database and inserting it into an HTML table. It consists of the fields: Last_Name, First_Name, Party, District, Address, CIty, State, Zip, and Email. And the Email field is being converted to a Hyperlink.  (All working fine so far)

I also have a form that has a prewritten letter to be sent to the email address. I need to have the HyperLink from the Email pass the address to the form to allow me to send it. I am not sure how to get this to happen. Here is the code I have so far:

The pull from the database:
<?php




$dbhost = 'localhost';
$dbuser = 'removed';
$dbpass = 'removed';
$db = 'removed';

$link = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass)or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db($db)or die(mysql_error());

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM 2011members") 
or die(mysql_error());  


echo "<table border='1'>";
echo "<tr> <th>Last Name</th> <th>First Name</th> <th>Party</th> <th>District</th> <th>Address</th> <th>City</th> <th>State</th> <th>Zip</th> <th>Email</th> </tr>";
// keeps getting the next row until there are no more to get
while($row = mysql_fetch_array( $result )) {
// Print out the contents of each row into a table
echo "<tr><td>"; 
echo $row['Last_Name'];
echo "</td><td>"; 
echo $row['First_Name'];
echo "</td><td>"; 
echo $row['Party'];
echo "</td><td>"; 
echo $row['District'];
echo "</td><td>"; 
echo $row['Address'];
echo "</td><td>"; 
echo $row['City'];
echo "</td><td>"; 
echo $row['State'];
echo "</td><td>"; 
echo $row['Zip'];
echo "</td><td>"; 
//Normal Pull
//echo $row['Email'];
//echo "</td><td>"; 
//Just Hyperlink
//echo '<a href="http://',Email,'">',Email,'</a>';
//echo "</td></tr>"; 
echo '<a href="http://'.$row['Email'].'">'.$row['Email'].'</a>';
echo "</td></tr>"; 
} 

echo "</table>";
?>

What do I need to do to get the Email link from the HTML table to pass to the Email variable in the Form?

Hi,
I'm trying to pass values from an array into a form. As a newbie, I've came up with the code underneath, but I want to pinpoint all the first values toward 1 selection list in the form. Any suggestions how to accomplish this?
Thanks in advance.

Below are two pages...Post.php. and Posted.php the posted page checks and makes sure everything is filled out and makes sure that the link has not been already added. The problem I am having is that it is not pulling over the link information. Every time you hit submit it drops down and goes to saying that you forgot to fill something in and I have it showing everything right now so when that happens I can see what is not going through and the $link never comes through. Any ideas? if anyone needs a better explanation please post and I will try to explain better....basically I am trying to post and everything posts but the link.

I am writing an email form for my site with some simple validation. I have the error messages working just fine. They do what they are supposed to do.

However, when the form is brought back up to have the errors fixed. It puts a "1" in the field box. I looked at the code and I do not see where the "1" is coming from.

I am also in the process of trying to figure out how to send email through my mail account using smtp. I want to see if it is going to send me the information that I ask for or the "1". Currently all of my work is being done on my localhost server

Here is the code that I am using
