PHP - Validating Checkbox Array In A Form

Hello, I am trying to validate my form using php and would like some advice as this is the first time I have attempted this.
 
 I have a script which runs when the user clicks the submit button. What I am trying to do is validate the user input before inserting it into the database.
 This is the script:

[font=monospace]<?php
session_start();

$dbhandle = mysql_connect('localhost', 'root', '')
     or die("Unable to connect to MySQL");
 
$selected = mysql_select_db("commentdatabase",$dbhandle)
     or die("Could not select the database");

$name = check_input($_POST['fname']);  
$loc = check_input($_POST['loc']);  
$com = check_input($_POST['com']); 

function check_input($data)
{
    $data = trim($data);
    $data = stripslashes($data);
    $data = htmlspecialchars($data);
    return $data;
} 

$sql = "INSERT INTO userinfo (name, location, comment) VALUES ('{$name}','{$loc}','{$com}')";

if(!mysql_query($sql, $dbhandle)) {
     die('Error: ' . mysql_error());
}

header('Location: ../contact.php');

mysql_close();

?> [/font]


What's happening is that when it is submitted to the database, it is displaying < and > characters as &lt; and &gt;. Yet once being redirected with the header function the input is displayed with the < and > signs. I'm  not sure if the function in the action script is in the wrong place or not. I have tried moving it around above and below the post variables.
 
 Just looking for a bit of advice really.
 
 Thank you,
 
 Regards,

I am debugging a PHP file that validates a user registration form. I'm very confused on this error message I'm receiving.

( Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '[' in C:\wamp\www\reg.php on line 17 )

I have looked until I cross-eyed to finf the syntax error. Here is a copy of my code:

<?php 

// Post registration to database
// Connects to your Database 
$userName = "taft65_admin";
$passWord = "taft65_paris4505";
$host="localhost";
$dbName = "taft65_members";

 mysql_connect("dbName", "userName", "passWoord", "host") or die(mysql_error()); 
 mysql_select_db("dbn") or die(mysql_error()); 
 
 //This code runs if the form has been submitted
 if (isset($_POST['submit'])) { 
 
 [color=yellow]//This makes sure they did not leave any fields blank
 if (!$_POST['id'] | !_POST['userName'] | !$_POST['passWord'] | !$_POST['confpassWord'] | !$_POST['email'] ) {
  die('You did not complete all of the required fields');
  }[/color]
 
 // checks if the userName is in use
  if (!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
  $_POST['userName'] = addslashes($_POST['userName']);
  }
 $usercheck = $_POST['userName'];
 $check = mysql_query("SELECT userName FROM users WHERE userName = '$usercheck'") 
 or die(mysql_error());
 $check2 = mysql_num_rows($check);
 
 //if the name exists it gives an error
 if ($check2 != 0) {
  die('Sorry, the userName '.$_POST['userName'].' is already in use.');
  }
 // 
this makes sure both passWoords entered match
  if ($_POST['passWord'] != $_POST['ConfPassWord']) {
  die('Your passWoords did not match. ');
  }
 
  // here we encrypt the passWord and add slashes if needed
  $_POST['passWord'] = md5($_POST['passWord']);
  if (!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
  $_POST['passWord'] = addslashes($_POST['passWord']);
  $_POST['userName'] = addslashes($_POST['userName']);
  }
 
 // now we insert it into the database
  $insert = "INSERT INTO registration (userName, passWord, email )
  VALUES ('".$_POST['userName']."', '".$_POST['passWord'].", '".$_POST['email']."')";
  $add_member = mysql_query($insert);
 
?>

Hey,


I have a script which processes an image when it is uploaded, but now i have a new form that allows users to upload four images at a time. I store them in an array in the form like so:

name="file[]"


So now i am wondering how do i process each image with a forloop because using $_FILES doesn't say which image to check in the array?


Hope some one can help me!


Heres my code:


Code: [Select]
<?php


if(isset($_POST['submit'])){ echo '<p align="center">';
if ($_FILES["file"]["size"] < 1000000)
  {
  if ($_FILES["file"]["error"] > 0)
    {
    echo "Return Code: " . $_FILES["file"]["error"] . "<br />";
    }
  else
    {
$filename = $_FILES["file"]["name"];
    if (file_exists("images/".$name."/".$filename))
      {
      echo "Image already uploaded!";
      }
    else
      {
if (is_dir("userimages/".$name) == FALSE){
mkdir("images/".$name, 0777);
}



      move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], "userimages/".$name."/" . $filename);
  echo "Image has been uploaded!";
     }
    }
  }
else
  {
  echo "Invalid file";
  }
  }
?>

Thanks

I'm trying to add an email validation into the code so that it pops up with a similar message as the others if you don't use the @ or .com in your email address and it just ignores it and keeps sending the email anyways no matter what i put into the email field. here is the php i have for it i'm sure it's something really simple but i am not as familiar with php as i would like to be...  When i try and test this to make sure it works it only gives me the message that my email has been sent and i want it to not send if the email address doesn't have the @ sign or the .com or whatever kind of website it's from. I bolded the code that is not working the way i want it too.   <?php if ($_POST['submit']) {

Hi

I'm have a PHP form that submits to a MYSQL database and I'm trying to make it so when any form input field is empty the user gets a message below that field and the data isn't submitted. I can't seem to get it work though?

The data submits OK when I don't have any validation but obviously if the fields are empty then a blank record just gets added to the database.

 

    <?php 
      
        // submit data to database
        if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {

            // assign variable names to name attributes from the form
            $firstname = $_POST['first-name'];
            $email = $_POST['email'];
			
			// This is the attempted validation code
            if(empty($firstname)) {
                $error= "<br>- Please enter your firstname";
            }
            if(empty($email)) {
                $error="<br>- Please enter your email";
            }

            if ($error) {
                $result="<p class='alert error'>There is an error. Please correct the following: {$error}</p>";
            } else {
		
            // This is when the data is submitted
            $query = "INSERT INTO users(firstname, email) VALUES(?,?)";

            $stmt = $connection->prepare($query);
            $stmt->bind_param("ss", $f, $e);

            $f = $firstname;
            $e = $email;
            $stmt->execute();

            $stmt->close();
            $connection->close();

            header("Location: index.php"); // makes page refresh after query so new records show in HTML table

        }
        
    }
    ?>

Hi guys, I'm having problems integrating Recaptcha into an existing form. I want it all to process on the same page. I took a look on Google and found a pre-existing script which does what I want but I'm still having trouble integrating it with what I already have, form fields and the recaptcha validate seperately. Here's my script so far:

before the <html> tag:

Code: [Select]
<?php session_start(); ?>

if(trim($_POST['name']) == '') {

}

//Check to make sure sure that a valid email address is submitted

} else if (!eregi("^[A-Z0-9._%-]+@[A-Z0-9._%-]+\.[A-Z]{2,4}$", trim($_POST['email']))) {
$hasError = true;

} else {
if(function_exists('stripslashes')) {

i have a form with multiple checkboxes, with the same name. so i put them in an array like this.

Code: [Select]
<input type='checkbox' name='test[]' value='' />
<input type='checkbox' name='test[]' value='' />
<input type='checkbox' name='test[]' value='' />
<input type='checkbox' name='test[]' value='' />
Now when i do print_r($_POST['test']; , it should display an array and if each checkbox has been ticked or not.  it just comes up blank.

Any idea?

I have this.

<input name="delete[]" type="checkbox" id="delete" value="1" />

What I want to is get the value from this which is the "1"
AND
Get the id which would be "delete"

I can get the value but i cant seem to get the id

This is what I have been using

foreach($_REQUEST['delete'] as $index=>$val){
echo $index;
echo $val;
}


echo $index just gives me the num of array I am on and the $val gives the actually value. Can anyone help me out with getting the id or how I can specify a id.

THanks

hello.... I'm stuck... I'm trying to populate a check box with a 2d array. I have made three arrays within one array, but when i run it, nothing appears..
here is the code i have used so far:


Code: [Select]
<legend>Optional extras</legend>

<optgroup label="Entertainment">
<?php
foreach($car_extras as $car_extras_id => $extras)
{
echo '.$car_extras_id.';
{
foreach($extras as $entertainment)
$i++;
echo '<input type=checkbox name="options" value="'.$extras.'" id="entertainment'.$num[$i].'"/>';
echo '<label for ="entertainment'.$num[$i].'">'.$entertainment.'</label><br/>';
}
}
?>

This is the array code
Code: [Select]
$car_extras = array
("Entertainment"=>array("6 disc DVD changer", "TV function", "DAB digital radio",
"Loudspeaker system - professional", "Multimedia navigation system"),

"Communication"=>array("Universal remote control", "Voice control", "Navigation system","Head-up display"),

"Safety & Security"=>array("Adaptive headlights", "Night vision with pedestrian recognition", "Run-flat tyres"));

Thanks for the help!

Problem: my checkbox array chkBrand[] is not saving data when I click the save button called cmdSave. Each checkbox specifies a brand connected to a model number. Multiple brands can be connected to each model number. (Don't ask, it's what the customer wants.)

So, if I check the checkbox in row 0 and row 3, only row 0 shows up. If I check the boxes in row 0, 1, 5, only rows 0, 1 show up in chkBrand and $newchkbrandarr.

First, my routine to see which button is checked is at the top of the php file. Here it is.

else if (isset($_POST['cmdSave'])) //Try to save items first.
    {
$newchkbrandarr=$_POST['chkBrand']; //Checkbox for each brand.
$oldchkbrandarr=$_SESSION['oldchkbrandarr'];
$olddata=$_SESSION['olddata']; //Non-brand Fields strung together.
$brandlist=$_SESSION['brandlist']; //List of brands displayed.

crPrintarr('chkBrand raw',$_POST['chkBrand']); //DEBUG. Prints array to screen.
//===At this point chkBrand[] contains: 1

//Turn nulls in checkboxes to zeros.
$cnt=count($newchkbrandarr);
for ($j=0; $j<$cnt; $j++)
{
$newchkbrandarr[$j]=$newchkbrandarr[$j]+0;
} //for j

//Make sure that at least one brand is checked.
$cnt=count($newchkbrandarr);
crPrintarr('newchkbrandarr',$newchkbrandarr); //DEBUG
//===At this point, $newchkbrandarr contains: 1, 0

$s='Elements in newchkbrandarr cnt='.$cnt;
$s.=', count brandlist='.count($brandlist);
crDebug($s); //DEBUG
$cnt2=0;
$cnt=count($newchkbrandarr); //Find number of elements.
for ($j=0; $j<$cnt; $j++)
{
$cnt2=$cnt2+$newchkbrandarr[$j]+0;
//$s='arrpos '.$j.': newchkbrandarr='.($newchkbrandarr[$j]+0).', cnt2='.$cnt2;
//crDebug($s); //DEBUG
} # for j


Here is my code to construct the array of checkboxes, one per table row. Each checkbox has its array position explicitly defined as $x. $x starts at zero, and is incremented by 1 for each table row (each check box).


    $x=0;
    while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)) 
     {
$br=trim($row['brand']); //Brand name to display
$brandvar=$br;
$brandlist[]=$br; //Save every found brand for later.
//First find if brand is checked on table "brands". 
        $query2 = "SELECT brand ".
        "FROM brands ".
        "WHERE ".
        "(partid=".$partidvar.") ".
        "AND (brand='".$br."') ".
        "ORDER BY brand ".
        ";";
        $cntchk=crqryCount($query2,false); //If $cntchk>0 then brand is checked.
        //$s="Is brand stored already? <br/>$query2";
        //crDebug($s); //DEBUG
        
        $query2 = "SELECT brand ".
        "FROM zzbrands ".
        "WHERE (brand='".$br."') ".
        "AND (prodnameoverride=1) ".
        "ORDER BY brand ".
        ";";
$override=crqryCount($query2,false); //Can this brand override product name?

$s="\n";
     $s.='<tr><td>'.
         '<input type="text" value="'.$br.'" id="txtBrand[]" name="txtBrand[]" '.
         'size="20" readonly class="mydisabled" />';
     $s.='<td align="center">';
     $s.='<input type="checkbox" name="chkBrand['.$x.']" '.
         'id="chkBrand['.$x.']" value="1" ';
     if ($cntchk>0)
     {
     $s.='checked="checked" ';
     $oldchkbrandarr[$x]=1;
     }
     else {
     $oldchkbrandarr[$x]=0;
     }
     $s.='/>';


Any ideas what I might be missing?

Hi. I have a form with a selection of checkboxes. I am trying to use an array to store the results in a single column of a mysql database. The problem is, instead of the values, it just stores 'array'.

Each checkbox is like so:

<input name="previous_diseases[]" value="Tuberculosis"/>

Here is my code:

Code: [Select]
<?php
try{
$pdo_options[PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE] = PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION;
$database = new PDO('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=db', 'username', 'password', $pdo_options);
 
$execution=$database->prepare('INSERT INTO form(title, forename, surname, address_1, address_2, address_city, address_county, address_country, address_postcode, email, previous_diseases, hear) VALUES(:title, :forename, :surname, :address_1, :address_2, :address_city, :address_county, :address_country, :address_postcode, :email, :previous_diseases, :hear)'); 
$execution->execute(array('title' => $_POST['title'],
         'forename' => $_POST['forename'],
 'surname' => $_POST['surname'],
         'address_1' => $_POST['address_1'],
 'address_2' => $_POST['address_2'],
 'address_city' => $_POST['address_city'],
 'address_county' => $_POST['address_county'],
 'address_country' => $_POST['address_country'],
 'address_postcode' => $_POST['address_postcode'],
 'email' => $_POST['email'],
 'previous_diseases' => $_POST['previous_diseases'],
     'hear' => $_POST['hear']));
Can anyone please show me what I need to change to get the values inserted into the database.

Thank you

Script:

<?php

// For example, the entries in the table.
$entry1 = "text1";
$entry2 = "text2";
$entry3 = "text3";

// For example, the ID numbers in the table.
$value1 = "140";
$value2 = "141";
$value3 = "142";

echo "<form method='POST' action='" . $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] . "'>";
echo "<input type='checkbox' name='hashtag_modify_checkbox[]' value='" . $value1 . "' />";
echo "Modify";
echo "<input type='text' name='hashtag_name[]' value='" . $entry1 . "' />";

echo "<input type='checkbox' name='hashtag_modify_checkbox[]' value='" . $value2 . "' />";
echo "Modify";
echo "<input type='text' name='hashtag_name[]' value='" . $entry2 . "' />";

echo "<input type='checkbox' name='hashtag_modify_checkbox[]' value='" . $value3 . "' />";
echo "Modify";
echo "<input type='text' name='hashtag_name[]' value='" . $entry3 . "' />";

echo "<input type='submit' name='submit' />";
echo "</form>";


// Here, only store those hashtag names where the "modify" checkbox is checked.


?>

This is used for the admin panel.   It is a form where the input fields hold the text ("hashtags") already inside of them.   Basically, one would have to check the "modify checkbox" to modify a hashtag, then only the modified hashtags should get stored into an array.   How to have those hashtags stored in the array with the checked checkbox as the factor?   The suggestions are much appreciated.
