PHP - Php Script And Buttons

Hi everyone!

I've been working on a php script to replace links that contain a query with direct links to the files they would redirect to.

I'm having trouble echoing $year in my script. Listed below is the script, just below ,$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM $dbname WHERE class LIKE '%$search%'") or die(mysql_error());, in the script I try to echo $year. It doesn't show up in the table on the webpage. Everything else works fine. Any help wold be appreciated greatly. Thanks in advance.



<?php
include 'config2.php';

$search=$_GET["search"];

// Connect to server and select database.
mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass)or die("cannot connect");
mysql_select_db("vetman")or die("cannot select DB");


$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM $dbname WHERE class LIKE '%$search%'") or die(mysql_error());
// store the record of the "" table into $row
//$current = '';
echo "<table align=center border=1>";
echo "<br>";
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td align=center>";
?>
<div style="float: center;"><a><h1><?php echo $year; ?></h1></a></div>


<?php
echo "</td>";
echo "</tr>";
echo "</table>";


// keeps getting the next row until there are no more to get
if($result && mysql_num_rows($result) > 0)

{
    $i = 0;
    $max_columns = 2;
    echo "<table align=center>";
echo "<br>";
    while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
   {
       // make the variables easy to deal with
       extract($row);

       // open row if counter is zero
       if($i == 0)

          echo "<tr>";

          echo "<td align=center>";
          ?>
          <div style="float: left;">
          <div><img src="<?php echo $image1; ?>"></div>

  </div>


          <?php
          echo "</td>";

       // increment counter - if counter = max columns, reset counter and close row
       if(++$i == $max_columns)
       {
           echo "</tr>";
           $i=0;
       }  // end if
   } // end while
} // end if results

// clean up table - makes your code valid!
if($i > 0)
{
    for($j=$i; $j<$max_columns;$j++)
        echo "<td>&nbsp;</td>";
   echo '</tr>';
}
mysql_close();
 ?>

$name = $_FILES["image"] ["name"]; // name of the file
$type = $_FILES["image"]["type"]; //type of the file
$size = $_FILES["image"]["size"]; //the size of the file
$temp = $_FILES["image"]["tmp_name"];//temporary file location when click upload it temporary stores on the computer and gives it a temporary name
$error =array(); // this an empty array where you can then call on all of the error messages

I was wondering if you can have a form that has different actions depending on what submit button is pressed.  I have two button and with one I was to use

<form action="<?php echo ( $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ); ?>" method="post">

and with the other I want to use

<form action="preview.php" method="post">

I was to do this because I want to user to be able to preview their content before submitting.  I want the preview page to use the post variables as the value of the input fields so the user doesn't have to input their data again.  However because the form doesn't redirect the user to the preview page I have to save all the post variables as session variables. 

Hello guys. I am learning PHP little by little and am writing a VERY basic quiz. For functionality in the future I want to be able to change questions and answers in one "included" php doc. The problem i am having with my current code is that I would like to place a variable in the "value" definition on the radio input. I am unable to do this I guess. Any suggestions to accomplish the same thing? Sorry for my horrible code, this is the first thing I have written from scratch.

The form page:

Code: [Select]
<?php
include ("test.php");

?>

<body>


<h2><? print $q1; ?></h2>

<form method="post" action="test.php">
<input type="radio" name="q1answered" value="Basketball"/>

<?php
print $q1ans[0];
?>

<input type="radio" name="q1answered" value="Football"/>

<?php
print $q1ans[1];

?>

<br /><br />

<input type="submit" value="Submit Your Answer!" name="submit" />
</form>

$q1ans = array("Basketball", "Football");

($q1, $q2,);



if (isset($_POST["submit"])) {
$choice = $_POST["q1answered"];



if ($choice == $q1ans[0]){


print "Your Favorite Sport is $q1ans[0].";
}

else {

}
