PHP - Moved: Php Script For Handling Fdf Form Data
This topic has been moved to Miscellaneous.
http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=333815.0 Similar TutorialsI am learning how to use PHP to handle input in a Contact Form on my website. Using PHP I can send the form data to my email client. However I cannot achieve the outcome of sending a copy to the email address of the submitter. I have searched the Internet particularly Stack Overflow and have found code that I am told will achieve this outcome Here is the code:
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
$to = "email@example.com"; // this is your Email address
$from = $_POST['email']; // this is the sender's Email address
$first_name = $_POST['first_name'];
$last_name = $_POST['last_name'];
$subject = "Form submission";
$subject2 = "Copy of your form submission";
$message = $first_name . " " . $last_name . " wrote the following:" . "\n\n" . $_POST['message'];
$message2 = "Here is a copy of your message " . $first_name . "\n\n" . $_POST['message'];
$headers = "From:" . $from;
$headers2 = "From:" . $to;
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
mail($from,$subject2,$message2,$headers2); // sends a copy of the message to the sender
// echo "Mail Sent. Thank you " . $first_name . ", we will contact you shortly."; OR
// You can also use header('Location: thank_you.php'); to redirect to another page.
}
?>
Adjusting it for my own circumstances and settings it will still send the information in the form to me but will not send the information to the submitter's email address. What is particularly confusing is, if I modify the code by taking out this line of code mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers); Which includes my email address ($to), it still works and the information including ($subject) is still sent to my email address. I would appreciate any assistance that anyone would offer This is a tough one to summarize - especially in the Subject?! I need to insert a Comment which consists of: * article_id * member_id * body * status * created_on * approved_on * updated_on Only the "body" field is gathered from my "Add a Comment" form, and everything else either comes from the $_SESSION or from NOW() I am wondering if it would be easier to do Error-Handling and what-not if I created an Input for at least the first 4 fields above and populated the "Value" of those fields that already have values (e.g. "member_id")?? Then when the user clicks "Add a Comment", I can check all of the values in $_POST and handle everything in a uniform way, if you follow my new thinking?!

I have then asked for that data to be emailed to me using the POST action in conjunction with a PHP script called "carparkprocess2.php". At the moment, the form works OK on the web page, the confirmation message to say the data has been submitted successfully works OK, but the email that should display the information entered into the form doesn't work properly. It comes through and is formatted OK, but the form information is missing. I've been trying to resolve this issue for 2 days straight now and have tried loads of different things! Can anybody help? I need a quick answer on this one if possible Code: [Select] <?php error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE); // Prints all errors except Notices. /* Subject and Email Variables */ $emailSubject = 'Car Park Reservation Confirmation'; $webMaster = 'ben@maver.co.uk'; /* Gathering Data Variables */ if (!isset($_POST['name'])) { $_POST['name'] = "name"; } if (!isset($_POST['carregistration'])) { $_POST['carregistration'] = "carregistration"; } if (!isset($_POST['emailaddress'])) { $_POST['emailaddress'] = "emailaddress"; } if (!isset($_POST['numberinparty'])) { $_POST['numberinparty'] = "numberinparty"; } $body = <<<EOD <br><hr><br> Name: $name <br> Vehicle Registration: $carregistration <br> Email Address: $emailaddress <br> Number in Party: $numberinparty <br> EOD; $mailheaders .= "From: $emailaddress\r\n"; $headers .= "Content-type: text/html"; $success = mail($webMaster, $emailSubject, $body, $headers); /* Results rendered as HTML */ $theResults = <<<EOD <html> <head> <title>Car Park Reservation Confirmation</title> <meta http-equiv='Content-Type' content='text/html'> <style type='text/css'> <!-- body { min-height: 100%; height: auto; background: #000000; color: #ffffff; font-size: 14px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; margin: 0; } --> </style> </head> <div> <div align='left'>Your car park reservation request has been successful</div> </div> </body> </html> EOD; echo "$theResults"; ?> Here is the HTML within the form: Code: [Select] <form method='post' action='carparkprocess2.php'> Kindly help.

Therefore I want to ask your opionion on how to adapt the below mentioned script so that's safe to store delicate information in a cookie Code: [Select] <?php include("config.php"); if(isset($_SESSION['user_id'])) { // Inloggen correct, updaten laatst actief in db $sql = "UPDATE gebruikers SET lastactive=NOW() WHERE id='".$_SESSION['user_id']."'"; mysql_query($sql); }else{ if(isset($_COOKIE['user_id'])) { $sql = "SELECT wachtwoord,status FROM gebruikers WHERE id='".$_COOKIE['user_id']."'"; $query = mysql_query($sql); $rij = mysql_fetch_object($query); $dbpass = htmlspecialchars($rij->wachtwoord); $dbstatus = htmlspecialchars($rij->status); if($dbpass == $_COOKIE['user_password']) { $_SESSION['user_id'] = $_COOKIE['user_id']; $_SESSION['user_status'] = $dbstatus; }else{ setcookie("user_id", "", time() - 3600); setcookie("user_password", "", time() - 3600); echo "Cookies incorrect. Cookies verwijderd."; header("Location: inloggen.php"); } }else{ header("Location: inloggen.php"); } } ?> this is the concerning table Code: [Select] CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `gebruikers` ( `id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, `naam` varchar(50) NOT NULL DEFAULT '', `wachtwoord` varchar(50) NOT NULL DEFAULT '', `status` char(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT '0', `email` varchar(100) NOT NULL DEFAULT '', `actief` char(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT '0', `actcode` varchar(15) NOT NULL DEFAULT '', `lastactive` datetime NOT NULL DEFAULT '0000-00-00 00:00:00', PRIMARY KEY (`id`) ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=20 ; I read the tutorial, "Handling XML Data" and created this script from it. Excellent tutorial by the way Here is my script: Code: [Select] <?php // load SimpleXML $fx = new SimpleXMLElement('http://www.boj.org.jm/uploads/fxrates.xml', null, true); echo '<table><tr class="fx_header"><th class="fx_date">'; echo $fx->US[0]->DATE; echo '</th><th class="fx_buy">Buy</th><th class="fx_sell">Sell</th></tr><tr class="fx_us"><td class="fx_legend">USD (&#36;)</td><td class="fx_buy_sell">&#36;'; echo $fx->US[0]->BUY; echo '</td><td class="fx_buy_sell">&#36;'; echo $fx->US[0]->SELL; echo '</td></tr><tr class="fx_cad"><td class="fx_legend">CAD (&#36;)</td><td class="fx_buy_sell">&#36;'; echo $fx->CAD[0]->BUY; echo '</td><td class="fx_buy_sell">&#36;'; echo $fx->CAD[0]->SELL; echo '</td></tr><tr class="fx_gbp"><td class="fx_legend">GBP (&#163;)</td><td class="fx_buy_sell">&#36;'; echo $fx->GBP[0]->BUY; echo '</td><td class="fx_buy_sell">&#36;'; echo $fx->GBP[0]->SELL; echo '</td></tr></table>'; ?> This is the XML file that the script is reading from: http://www.boj.org.jm/uploads/fxrates.xml This is the result page (which is just the way it should look): http://projects.wstudiographics.com/ewl/boj/fxrates.php It works very well, but it take a bit of time to return the result. I think it's because of how the XML file data was set up. The thing is that I have no control over the xml data. I am only allowed to read it. I only need the first or rather latest instance of the data. Any help on this will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advanced. Winchester (WStudio) The top half of this code works great ( where the HR line across ) now I'm trying to get it to post the some of the same data to another process script.

My server supports GD Library and that imagemagik or whatever it is lol. upload dirs orig: ../media/photos/ thumb: ../media/photos/thumb/ mySQL DB: name: m_photos fields: id(INT) m_cat(varchar) m_sub_cat(varchar) pic(varchar) description(varchar) p_group(varchar) I have the form written up for how it should look like: Code: [Select] <form action="upload.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> Upload an image for processing<br /> <input type="file" name="Image"><br /> <select name="sub_group"> <option value="Photo Shoot">Photo Shoot</option> <option value="Live Performances">Live Performances</option> <option value="Randoms">Randoms</option> <option value="Fan Photos">Fan Photos</option> </select><br /> Location: <input type="text" name="p_group" /><br /> Date of Pic: <input type="text" name="date" /><br /> Description: <input type="text" name="description" /><br /> <input type="submit" value="Upload"> </form> so what needs to happen is for the file upload name. it needs to grab a count from "p_group" database to give it a starting number in a "00" pattern and then the date of pic needs to go in there next then the p_group name. so when the files gets uploaded it would look something like this after upload. "03 - Oct 21, 2011 - The Mex.jpg" NOTE: all pics must be converted to ".jpg" extension. both the orig and thumb will use that same file name cuz they just go into different dirs re-sizing for the thumbnail should be done by aspect ratio and needs to either be 300px width or 400px height. so if anyone would like to help me out please do. im not the greatest at writing in php yet This topic has been moved to PHP Applications. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=351056.0 A form needs to get answers of math quiz, returning numbers, up to 2 digits after the point. In all form examples I noticed the usage of: Code: [Select] ...<input type="text" name="name" /... Cant it be a number? floating or integer? why "text" ? Also, can I limit the form to accept numerical input only or would I need to learn Ajax for that? Once I have the answer, I need to compare it to the correct answer. The method I have in mind is to multiply the answer and the correct one by 100 and compare the integer part. Is there a pre-made function that can do the same? Hello everyone, I've recently asked a question about forms and Requinix mentioned PRG method of processing forms. The PRG idea solves my refresh and back button document expired problems but i notice something new: when i refresh a page or use the browser back button - then return to the PRG process - repeat a refresh or back button action - i notice that i can traverse the cache history as many times as my prg approach redirects me. I feel like i am not implementing this PRG method correctly, or is this correct? Here is the form process if it helps solve the problem: i have a login form which contains a CSRF token. when i submit the form i specify an action as /prg/ which submits the data to index.php in the prg folder. After processing the data, prg index.php redirects to the root (because you are logged in). One problem is that i have a logo on the login page that allows you to return to the root (localhost index page). When the form is not submitted or it contaiuns incorrect login data or the logo is clicked to return to homepage, then the history seems to repeat itself. I've read that people recommend to use a header 303 See Other but the result is the same. Basiclly, if i am implementing a prg correctly, then the question becomes how can i instruct a browser to ignore the redirect as if the cache contains only the index page? i cannot find prg examples that involve a csrf token and other links on the protected page (prg/index.php protected because you need a form submission with a csrf token and it only processes data then redirects.) I don't see this happening in professional sites like Google or Microsoft etc. what am i doing wrong? Not sure why the PHP variables in the code below aren't interpreting the values that they should be receiving from the HTML form. HTML form Code: [Select] <form action="handle_form.php" method="post"> <fieldset><legend>Enter your information in the form below</legend> <p><b>Name:</b> <input type="text" name="name" size="20" maxlength="40" /></p> <p><b>Email Address:</b> <input type="text" name="email" size="40" maxlength="60" /></p> <p><b>Gender:</b> <input type="radio" name="gender" value="M" /> Male <input type="radio" name="gender" value="F" /> Female</p> <p><b>Age:</b> <select name="age"> <option value="0-29">Under 30</option> <option value="30-60">Between 30 and 60</option> <option value="60+">Over 60</option> </select> </p> <p><b>Comments:</b> <textarea name="comments" rows="3" cols="40"></textarea></p> </fieldset> <div align="center"><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Sumbit My Information" /></div> </form> PHP handle_form <?php #Script 2.2 handle_form.php $name = $_REQUEST['name']; $email = $_REQUEST['email']; $comments = $_REQUEST['comments']; echo "<p>Thank you, <b>$name</b>, for the following comments:<br /> <tt>$comments</tt></p> <p> We will reply to you at <i>$email</i>.</p>"; ?> Hi Guys, Can someone please tell me why no echo statements work after my heredoc :? Here's the code: Code: [Select] <?php switch($_POST['options']){ case '1': $selected1 = 'selected'; break; case '2': $selected2 = 'selected'; break; case '3': $selected3 = 'selected'; break; case '4': $selected4 = 'selected'; break; default: $selected1 = $selected2 = $selected3 = $selected4 = ''; } echo <<<END <html> <head> <script type="text/javascript"> function show_alert() { alert("I am an alert box!"); } function formSubmit() { document.getElementById("frm1").submit(); } </script> </head> <body> <form id="frm1" method="post" action="search.php" /> <select onclick="formSubmit()" name="options" size="1"> <option $selected1 value="1">date</option> <option $selected2 value="2">year</option> <option $selected3 value="3">country</option> <option $selected4 value="4">language</option> </ select> </body> </html> </form> END; if(isset($_POST['options'])){ echo "item chosen"; } It works when I put the 'isset' if clause before the heredoc and even weirder, if i add a submit input type in the form as the last field it works as is? ex: Code: [Select] <?php switch($_POST['options']){ case '1': $selected1 = 'selected'; break; case '2': $selected2 = 'selected'; break; case '3': $selected3 = 'selected'; break; case '4': $selected4 = 'selected'; break; default: $selected1 = $selected2 = $selected3 = $selected4 = ''; } echo <<<END <html> <head> <script type="text/javascript"> function show_alert() { alert("I am an alert box!"); } function formSubmit() { document.getElementById("frm1").submit(); } </script> </head> <body> <form id="frm1" method="post" action="search.php" /> <select onclick="formSubmit()" name="options" size="1"> <option $selected1 value="1">date</option> <option $selected2 value="2">year</option> <option $selected3 value="3">country</option> <option $selected4 value="4">language</option> <input type="submit"> </ select> </body> </html> </form> END; if(isset($_POST['options'])){ echo "item chosen"; } Any help would be greatly appreciated!
