PHP - Very Simple Post Form In Php, Help Please!!!!!! Thanks

 <td> <button onclick="alertdialog()"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-trash"> </span></button></td>
<script>
function alertdialog(){
    window.confirm("Are you sure you want to delete this post?");
}
</script>   This is my code. I need to have a callback to a PHP script when a user decides to delete a post. I think html POST is the most unobtrustive way to do this. What's the easiest / most robust way to send data to a script when the user clicks OK?   Appreciated. Mark

How can i make a send POST FORM from this api:

http://pub.tapulous.com/tapplications/coresocial/v1/chat/api/index.php?method=message_send&session={"device_id":+"03decef7aad6fb64fb5c5ed3f1d35a3d16413e490a2874",+"room":+"Songs%253AExtreme"}&message= message here


Thanks people

why doesn't this work?

Code: [Select]
<form action="<? echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="post">
<input type="text" id="name" name="name" size="20" /></p>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" alt="Submit" />
</form>


<?
if($name != "") {
$xml = simplexml_load_file("invoice.xml");
$sxe = new SimpleXMLElement($xml->asXML());
$itemsNode = $sxe->data[0];
$main = $itemsNode->addChild(inv);
$sub = $main->addChild("name", $name);
$sxe->asXML("invoice.xml");
}
?>

The existing xml file looks like this:

Code: [Select]
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<root>
 <data>
  <inv>               
    <name>Sally Prince</name>
  </inv>
 </data>
</root>

And, my intention is is I fill out the form with "Bill Gates" the xml will become:

Code: [Select]
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<root>
 <data>
  <inv>               
    <name>Sally Prince</name>
  </inv>
  <inv>               
    <name>Bill Gates</name>
  </inv>
 </data>
</root>

Also if I just set

Code: [Select]
$name = "Bill Gates"
it works.. but the form will not pass the data to the xml.. what am I missing?

Thanks!

Hi all, not sure if this belongs in the Javascript section or PHP...

I have a 3 pages, Index.php, a Javascript file and my display.php page.

My Index page has a list of inputs which populate the variables in my javascript file when exectued, the javascript file then uses these variables to perform simple mathematical calculations and then displays the data using the innerHTML function back on my index page.

From the index page I need to then post all my values, including these in the innerHTML div's as a POST array to my display.php only im unsure where to start.

Hopefully thaat makes sense, would anybody have any idea on how to do this?

Thanks

Hi, I am having a problem with my form.  It posts fine on Firefox 3.6 on my MAC, but not on Safari 5 on my MAC.  It also does not work Internet Explorer 9, Firefox 4 or Google Chrome on a windows box.   Basically it posts back to itself, no email is sent and it does not hit my sql database.

Here is the pertinent code to my index.html file...
Code: [Select]
<script type="text/javascript">
function showMonth(str)
{
if (str=="")
  {
  document.getElementById("txtHint").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("txtHint").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText;
    }
  }
xmlhttp.open("GET","reserv.php?q="+str,true);
xmlhttp.send();
}
</script>
 <form method="post" action="resersend.php">
<p><font face="arial" size="2" color="#336600">Reservation month:</font>
<select name="months" onchange="showMonth(this.value)">
<option value="" selected="selected">Choose One</option>
<option value="May 2011">May 2011</option>
<option value="June 2011">June 2011</option>
<option value="July 2011">July 2011</option>
<option value="August 2011">August 2011</option>
<option value="September 2011">September 2011</option>
<option value="October 2011">October 2011</option>
<option value="November 2011">November 2011</option>
<option value="December 2011">December 2011</option>
<option value="January 2012">January 2012</option>
<option value="February 2012">February 2012</option>
<option value="March 2012">March 2012</option>
<option value="April 2012">April 2012</option>
</select>
</form></p>

Here is the reserv.php file (code) that works with the html file....

Anyone have any ideas?  I suspect it may have to do with the javascript in the index.html file, but I can't nail it down.  Thanks.

In my invoice system im trying to carry information from 1 page to another, witch i have been successful with, now I am trying to alter table rows on my data tables I need to send the same account number and invoice number, how can i achieve this without putting the account number and invoice number inside a form element?

Ok so I've got trouble with a form I'm creating, I've got this:
<form id="login" name="login" action="URL"

          method="post">
and then Input fields like:
<input tabindex="3" type="text" class="login-field" name="acc.username" id="login-username"

                           value="" maxlength="48"/>

Now, if I go and submit that, and on the "URL" page I've had it echo $_POST['acc.username'] but it doesn't echo anything. I think it may be a problem with the form itself.. although I can't see one.

The code I got for URL:
<?PHP 
include('global.php');

if(isset($_POST['acc.username'])) 
{
echo "lol";
}
else
{
echo mysql_error();
}
?>

Hi all,
Hoping someone can help with what i would guess is a very simple problem.

I have the following code which is suppose to display a form. the form posts to itself and uses isset and if the form has been posted it doesnt display the form.

if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {

echo "question submitted successfully";
}
else {
          echo '<form method="post" name="qanda" id="qanda" action="http://' . $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"].$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] . '">';
          echo '<p><label for="name">Name</label> <input type="text" id="name" /></p>';
          echo '<p><label for="e-mail">E-mail</label> <input type="text" id="e-mail" /></p>';
          echo '<p><label for="Question">Question</label>  <textarea rows="6" id="question"></textarea></p>';
          echo '<p class="submit"><input type="submit" value="Submit" /></p></form>';
  }

this currently doesnt work.

Extra things you might need to know is that this script/form is an included file in a dynamic site which also uses the rewrite module which is why I am using http://' . $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"].$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] just incase that makes a difference.

Hi I am really getting  with validating a drop down box in my form for posting

I have set all the <options> in html form as followed:

<form method="post" action="thankyou.php">
                       
<?php
$ipi = getenv("REMOTE_ADDR");
$httprefi = getenv ("HTTP_REFERER");
$httpagenti = getenv ("HTTP_USER_AGENT");
?>
                        <input type="hidden" name="ip" value="<?php echo $ipi ?>" />
                        <input type="hidden" name="httpref" value="<?php echo $httprefi ?>" />
                        <input type="hidden" name="httpagent" value="<?php echo $httpagenti ?>" />

<select name="visitortitle">
                              <option>Please Select</option>
                              <option value="Mr">Mr</option>
                              <option value="Mrs">Mrs</option>
                              <option value="Miss">Miss</option>
                              <option value="Ms">Ms</option>
                              <option value="Dr">Dr</option>
                            </select>

</form>

now I'm trying to find a way to validate it in the .php sending side and using this:

<?php

$visitortitle = $_POST['visitortitle'];

if (!isset($visitortitle)) {
echo $visitortitle;
}

mail("email@domain.com", $subject, $message, $from);

?>

I have tried so many different ways with - if (!isset  - but cant get the send mail to recognise the drop down menu selection!!!!

Any help would really be appreciated as I'm not that up on php coding.

Thanks in advance.

Please help me. I tried to make a form from my database, and calculate the product of values which was selected.

Code: [Select]
<?php
$dbconn = pg_connect('host=localhost port=5432  dbname=test user=test password=test');

if(!$dbconn) {
exit('DB Connect Failed!');
}
$result = pg_query(
$dbconn,
" SELECT * FROM record " );

if(!$result){
exit('SELECT Failed!!!');
}

$rows = pg_fetch_all($result);
?>

<html><body>
<form name="cal" method="post" action="cal2.php">

 <?php if(!$rows): ?>
  <div>No data was found.</div>

 <?php else: ?>


 <table> <tr>
  <th  class="ass">object name</th>

  </tr>

  <?php foreach($rows as $r): ?>
<tr>
    <td><?php echo $r['object_name']; ?></td>
    </td>
    <td>

</form>


I can get values from selected object, but I don't know how to calculate their total product.

Code: [Select]
<?php
foreach ( $_POST as $key => $val ) {
$selval = "$val, ";
echo $selval;
 }
//echo values from selected objects. ex. 12, 15, 13....

//then, product each values. ex. 12*15*13...
$p = 1;
foreach ( $_POST as $key => $val ) {
$p *= $val;
echo $p;
}
//it didn't work

foreach ( $_POST as $key => $val ) {
$a = array($val);
echo array_product($a);
}
//it didn't work

?>
