PHP - Auto Fill The Form From Selection Box

Any suggestions for using to php to take html form data and fill a pdf form? Anything for cakephp?

Thanks

Hi, I've got a pdf catalog which posts an order to a php form.

The idea is that that the php page looks like an order form that the client can check before finally hitting 'submit' (i.e. along the lines of go to shopping cart).
I'd like the php page to be editable. Meaning clients can not only look at their echoed order, but change it before committing to it.

So the catalog order gets put into a php submit form with editable fields.

I've read that others have accomplished this with statements like:

  Code: [Select]
value="<?php echo $clientName; ?>"
Which should fill the client name input box on the order form with the posted variable.

But it doesn't work properly for me, instead, the form field is filled with "<?xml version=" with the expected name on the line benath the input box and " /> on the line beneath that.

Placing the input box declaration entirely within php tags doesn't work either (exactly the same output).

Code: [Select]
<?php 
    echo ("Name: <input class=\"inputbox\" type=\"text\" name=\"clientName\"
maxlength=\"40\" value=\"$clientName\"><br>");
?>
Can anyone help?

Hi, 

I am using this code, what i want is to random fill up stepa field with either option a or option b every time i refresh the page, any help is highly appreciated!:

 

<form action="myc.php" method="get">

<label  for="element_1"> </label>
		<div>
		<select class="element select medium"  name="stepa"> 
			<option value="" selected="selected"></option>


<option value="option a" >Advanced Human option a</option>
<option value="option b">Advanced Human Option b</option>



		</select>
		</div> 

<br>
<input type="submit">
</form>

 

I have this form:    

I have read around and can't seem to find the right coding for what I need on this forum and some other other forums.

I have a contact form (as listed below) and I need 2 locations (Print Name and Title) fields to auto-populate on a separate form (can be a doc, pdf, etc. any form of document which is easiest) and this form can be totally back end and the individual using the form never is going to see the form.

It's going on a contract form, that we would like to auto-populate.

Also is there a simple attachment code so individuals can attach documents to the code?

Hello,

i have a form with a dropdown selection with the values 1 to 8, on the submit page i have another form which has 8 divs, now i want to show only a number of those divs based on the selection of the dropdown from the previous page.

example:

1st page dropdown value is 4,  form gets submitted, on the next page show div 1 & 2 & 3 & 4, and so on.

Is this possible?

/Edit: i just thought about it again and i think i could use Code: [Select]
<?php $dropdown=$_POST['dropdown'];
if($dropdown=="1") { ?>  around the div tags, but then i would have to make 8 forms and take out 1 div one by one based on the dropdown selection, or is my thinking wrong?

I am looking for a high-level (but detailed) conceptual technique on making dynamic selection via a web page, where selection options are stored for later use in a database.   Scenario:  I have various options for assembling a custom-made product.  I can select demands that the product must satisfy via a form, and submit my selection to the server.   It then runs an algorithm to match my selections to the possible products that can be built to satisfy the demands.  There can be anywhere from 0 (not possible to build product), to 1 to 200 various ways to build possible products that match my selection.   I will call original user selection as "original selection" and the 200+ options as "options".   Right now there is an existing system in place which is a hideous mess of JSON, JS, HTML, and PHP.  Maybe the technologies are the way to solve my problem, but the way it is solved now is hard to maintain.  I don't know if there is a better way.  Right now, all options are being pre-generated via PHP, and are encoded into JSON, then JSON is read by JS, which drives the dynamic selection of options.  Then when an option is saved, entire list of options is saved along with it...  Then, when we want to know which original selection was made, we read back all the options from the database and the index of the one we actually need.  They are in JSON, we decode that, and then we have what we went.  It sounds convoluted to me, and I would like to simplify it a lot, potentially rewriting it.  How?   Basically I want this end-user scenario:  1.  User makes selections via form, submit 2.  User is presented with all options.  Since there are a lot of options we want user to be able to navigate through them in real time.  JS may be of value here, rather than doing new page loads, including AJAX page loads. 3.  User saves their selection, and results from page are either displayed back to the user or are saved in DB.    

Hello,

is it possible to define the next page after a form submission based on a value from the form ?

Example:

My form has a dropdown
Value 1: Flight
Value 2: Flight + Hotel

now i'm trying to achieve that if value 1 is chosen after submission it goes to flight.php, if value 2 it should go to flighthotel.php

or am i heading into the completely wrong direction here and over complicating things ?

Thanks in advance !

Hello everyone, i'm kinda stuck here although i had this working before,  i don't know what's wrong here.

Basically i've got a form with a drop-down menu, that menu has 3 values, x,y and z. Now that form is working with post, sending me to the next page where i have a set of arrays and a echo which should print some text based on the option chosen from the drop down menu.

my code in the form is this:

Code: [Select]
<select name="value1" id="value1">
        <option value="x">x</option>
        <option value="y">y</option>
        <option value="z">z</option>
      </select>
the array on the next page:

Code: [Select]
$arrayvalue = array("x"=>"test1", "y"=>"test2", "z"=>"test3");
and the echo:
Code: [Select]
<?php echo $arrayvalue["value1"];?>
That leaves me with an empty page. What am i doing wrong here ? am i missing something ?

any help is greatly appreciated.

I have 10 tables in my database.
I want load these 10 table names into a drop-down list.
If a user selects a value form the drop-down list, a form should be displayed with related to the table. (form fields should be appropriate table's column headers)
When user fill the form and submitted, data should be saved in the selected table.

Give me a code example to do this.

My problem is when the entries in the form are validated and some fields with incorrect entries are found the fields filled out stay on the re-load of the form, all of them except the US States drop down menu which reverts back to Alabama every time.

I would like to see that the user selection stays in place even after a re-load of the form. and with my limited experience I am having an issue trying to figure this out for a school project.

Any help at all would be greatly appreciated, like what variables to create/call on and where exactly I insert this code.

Much appreciated.

here is the display code:
 

<?php
/* Program name: exercise_4_form.inc
* Description: Defines a form that collects a user's
* name and mailing address.
*/
$rows = array( "first_name" => "First Name (optional)",
"last_name" => "Last Name",
"phone" => "Phone Number",
"city" => "City",
"state" => "State",
"address" => "Address",
"zip_code" => "ZIP Code",
"e_mail" => "E-Mail");

$states_list = array('AL'=>"Alabama",'AK'=>"Alaska",'AZ'=>"Arizona",
'AR'=>"Arkansas",'CA'=>"California",'CO'=>"Colorado",'CT'=>"Connecticut",
'DE'=>"Delaware",'DC'=>"District Of Columbia",'FL'=>"Florida",'GA'=>"Georgia",
'HI'=>"Hawaii",'ID'=>"Idaho",'IL'=>"Illinois", 'IN'=>"Indiana", 'IA'=>"Iowa",
'KS'=>"Kansas",'KY'=>"Kentucky",'LA'=>"Louisiana",'ME'=>"Maine",
'MD'=>"Maryland", 'MA'=>"Massachusetts",'MI'=>"Michigan",'MN'=>"Minnesota",
'MS'=>"Mississippi",'MO'=>"Missouri",'MT'=>"Montana",'NE'=>"Nebraska",
'NV'=>"Nevada",'NH'=>"New Hampshire",'NJ'=>"New Jersey",'NM'=>"New Mexico",
'NY'=>"New York",'NC'=>"North Carolina",'ND'=>"North Dakota",'OH'=>"Ohio",
'OK'=>"Oklahoma", 'OR'=>"Oregon",'PA'=>"Pennsylvania",'RI'=>"Rhode Island",
'SC'=>"South Carolina",'SD'=>"South Dakota",'TN'=>"Tennessee",'TX'=>"Texas",
'UT'=>"Utah",'VT'=>"Vermont",'VA'=>"Virginia",'WA'=>"Washington",'WV'=>"West Virginia",
'WI'=>"Wisconsin",'WY'=>"Wyoming");


$submit = "Submit mailing information";
?>
<html>
<head>
<style type='text/css'>
<!--
body {
background: #42413C;
color: #000;
font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, sans-serif;
font-size: 90%;
}
form {
margin: 1em 2 2 2;
padding: 1;
width: 1100px;
margin-left: 35%;

}
.field {padding-bottom: 1em;

}
label {
font-weight: bold;
float: left;
width: 15%;
margin-right: 1em;
text-align: right;
background-color: #9F6;
padding-right: 5px;

}
select {margin-bottom: 1em;}

#submit {
margin-left: 15%;
}
h3 {
width: 500px;
margin-left: 35%;
}


-->
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h3>Please enter your mailing information below:</h3>
<?php
/* loop that displays the form */
echo "<form action='$_SERVER[PHP_SELF]' method='POST'>";
foreach($rows as $field => $label)

if($field == "state")
{
echo "<label for='$field'>$label</label>
<select id='$field' name='$field'>\n";

foreach ( $states_list as $abbr => $sname )
{
echo "<option value='$abbr'>$sname</option>\n";
}
echo "</select>\n";
}
else
{
echo "<div class='field'><label for='$field'>$label</label>
<input id='$field' name='$field' type='text' value='".@$$field."'
size='25%' maxlength='65' /></div>\n";
}

echo "<div id='submit'>
<input type='hidden' name='submitted' value='yes'>
<input type='submit' value='$submit'></div>";
?>

</form>
</body>
</html>

Here is the Logic on the combined php file that displays and has the statements on it for the form:
 

<?php
/* Program name: exercise_4_form_verifications.php
* Description: Program checks all the form fields for
* blank fields and verifies them
*/

if(isset($_POST['submitted']) and $_POST['submitted'] == "yes")
{
foreach($_POST as $field => $value)
{
if(empty($value))
{
if($field != "first_name")
{
$blank_array[] = $field;
}
}
else
{
$good_data[$field] = strip_tags(trim($value));
}
}



if(@sizeof($blank_array) > 0)
{
$message = "<p style='color: black; margin-bottom: 0;font-weight: bold; margin-left: 35%'>
You didn't fill in one or more required fields.
You must enter:
<ul style='color: yellow; margin-top: 0; margin-left: 35%;
list-style: none' >";

foreach($blank_array as $value)
{
$message .= "<li>$value</li>";
}
$message .= "</ul>";
echo $message;
extract($good_data);
include("exercise_4_form.inc");
exit();
}
foreach($_POST as $field => $value)
{
if(!empty($value))
{
$name_verify = "/^[A-Za-z' -]{1,50}$/";
$phone_verify = "/^[0-9)(xX -]{7,20}$/";
$city_verify = "/^[A-Za-z' -]{1,50}$/";
$address_verify = "/^[A-Za-z0-9 .,'-]{1,50}$/";
$zip_verify = "/^[0-9]{5}(\-[0-9]{4})?$/";
$e_mail_verify = "/^.+@.+\\..+$/";

if(preg_match("/last/i",$field))
{
if(!preg_match($name_verify,$value))
{
$error_array[] = "$value is not a valid last name";
}
}
if(preg_match("/phone/i",$field))
{
if(!preg_match($phone_verify,$value))
{
$error_array[] = "$value is not a valid phone number";
}
} // endif phone format check
if(preg_match("/city/i",$field))
{
if(!preg_match($city_verify,$value))
{
$error_array[] = "$value is not a valid city";
}

}
if(preg_match("/address/i",$field))
{
if(!preg_match($address_verify,$value))
{
$error_array[] = "$value is not a valid address";
}
}
if(preg_match("/zip/i",$field))
{
if(!preg_match($zip_verify,$value))
{
$error_array[] = "$value is not a valid ZIP code";
}
}
if(preg_match("/e_mail/i",$field))
{
if(!preg_match($e_mail_verify,$value))
{
$error_array[] = "$value is not a valid e-mail address";
}
}
}
$clean_data[$field] = strip_tags(trim($value));
}
if(@sizeof($error_array) > 0)
{

$message = "<ul style='color: yellow; margin-top: 0; margin-left: 35%;
list-style: none' >";
foreach($error_array as $value)
{
$message .= "<li>$value</li>";
}
$message .= "</ul>";


echo $message;
extract($clean_data);
include("exercise_4_form.inc");
exit();
}
else
{
echo "<ol>";
foreach($_POST as $field => $value)
{ echo "<h3><li> $field = $value</li></h3>";
}
echo "</ol>";
}
}
else
{
include("exercise_4_form.inc");
}
?>

Greetings,

I am trying to create a basic booking system, for example there may be 3 events that a user can book. If the user clicks 'Book Now' on Event #1

I need it to take them to the HTML/PHP booking form with the information already entered that is relevant to Event #1 (Or whatever event they choose), such as the event name, time, date etc

I know how to create a contact form etc, its just the carrying of the information over to the form I dont know how to do.

Does anyone know if this is possible/ how it could be achieved?

Any help will be much appreciated,
Thanks!
