PHP - Moved: Tinybox Form Posting Within The Popup

I have this code with clears the input box onclick...
Code: [Select]
<input type="text" name="username" value="Username" onclick="value=''"/>

however is there any way to use php to get the value of username, before its posted?

that way i can make it so it only clears if the value of username is "username"

I am working on a PHP/MySQL authorization script.
The script seems to work initially, but when I try to Login and post the Form (
        echo '<form method="post" action=authorize_1.php">';
   echo '<table>';
   echo '<tr><td>Userid:</td>';
   echo '<td><input type="text" name="userid"></td></tr>';
   echo '<tr><td>Password:</td>';
   echo '<td><input type="password" name="password"></td></tr>';
   echo '<tr><td colspan="2" align="center">';
   echo '<input type="submit" value="Log in"></td></tr>';
   echo '</table></form>';
)
Internet Explorer returns the error that the page is not found.... but I am using one .php file for the authorization so I am sure the page is found because i can see the Login portion.

Any ideas as to what is going wrong?

Hi, i have written a form that uses 3 dropdown boxes, one of them being populated from a database.

The form code is as follows;

Code: [Select]
<form id="pointsForm" name="pointsForm" method="post" action="points-engine.php">

<select name="car" id="car">
<?php
        // result of car name collection
        $result = mysql_query ($query);
        
        //Array stored in $cars
        while($cars=mysql_fetch_array($result)){
            
        //option values added by looping through array
        echo "<option value=$cars[id]>$cars[carName]</option>";
        }
?>
</select>

<select name="season" id="season">
<option value="low">Low season</option>
<option value="mid">Mid season</option>
<option value="high">High season</option>
    <option value="peak">Peak season</option>
</select>
   
    <select name="period" id="period">
<option value="day">One day</option>
<option value="weekend">Weekend</option>
<option value="week">One week</option>
</select>

<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit" /> 

</form>
which posts to;

Code: [Select]
<?php

$car=$_POST['car'];
echo $car;

$season=$_POST['season']; 
echo $season;

$period=$_POST['period'];
echo $period;

?>
The initial form code is working fine, the car field is being populated from the database. My problem is the post value for car isn't working...

points-engine.php is echoing $season & $period fine but not $car

can anyone tell me why?

many thanks
Richard

Hi Guys,

I need a bit of help. I need to post a value to a second page, but I want the button to have the same name.

The page is to show registered users and then allows a user to send a friend request 'to put it in simple terms'.

Username submitbutton username submitbutton And then i do the following

<?php
foreach ($_POST['username') as $user
{
echo $user;
}
?>
How could i go about doing this or would I have to use a 'Hidden' Field.

Hi There,

I have a series of submit buttons that I would like to update records in a table when they are pressed. For example, when clicked, I would like them to run the following statement:

update mytable set completed = 1 where colname = $variable

I would then like it to refresh the page.

Is there a way of doing this?

Thanks
Matt

Hi everyone!

So, I have recently become interested in the world of webpage design and HTML coding. Thus far, I have created a  few simple HTML webpages, the first of which includes some basic facts and information on the state of NC. Everything has gone rather smoothly for me until this point, but I would now like to incorporate a bit of PHP into my knowledge of web development.

First, I would like to include a form on my NC page that once submitted, goes to a new PHP page displaying the inputted data to the screen.
On the new page, I am attempting to include files: a header and footer.

On my other couple of pages for which I would like to add server side includes.
And lastly, if possible, it would be great if I could learn how to add some additional features like sending e-mails or displaying the date. Any advice or tips on how to go about this would be greatly appreciated!

Hello,

When a user clicks a Submit button on my page, I'm using an onClick event to essentially just disable the button and change the message to 'Saving'.  However, when I add the onClick code, the form no longer posts using PHP.  The button does indeed change but the postback never occurs.  Is there something extra I need to add or do?

Thank you!!

This is my submit button:
Code: [Select]
<input type="submit" id="submit" value="Save Changes" onclick="this.disabled=true; this.value='Saving'">|<a href="/">Cancel</a>

Then I have the normal PHP stuff for postback which isn't firing....

Code: [Select]

//IF POSTBACK
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST')
{
//DO STUFF HERE
}

Working on a project for school and I am trying to code a form that feeds into a DB. 

I have been studying the syntax, reading and doing everything I can to get this to work. 

A little help, pointers, direction would be greatly appreciated.

It may be my database structure so I included a image for anyone to see...  and the files.

Thanks in advance

I have one field which is set up as a Text field in my database.  What I'm wanting is if the field is blank in the form to just leave the field alone in the database.  I need it to be NULL.

OR...is there a way to query a database to recognize a field is blank?

Hi,

I have a php index page that includes a form page with a delete button for that row.   When I hit the delete button nothing happens.  I am not sure if the variable is not passing or if the index.php page is not processing it correctly. 

Here is the index page that includes the form page:

The $_GET array should be getting the variable id passed when the Delete button is pressed on the form, but nothing is happening when I press the button.

Here is the form:

<p>


<a href="?addjoke">Add Joke </a>
 
</p>

<p>

Here are all the jokes:

</p>

<form action="?deletejoke" method="post">

<?php foreach($jokes as $joke): ?>
<p>
 <?php
    echo htmlspecialchars($joke['id'], ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8'),

</p>
 </form>
<?php endforeach; ?>

</p>
</body>

All of my other variables seem to be passing just fine.  Any ideas why this one is a problem?

Hi, I got this form which passes hidden values as well as a select menu.  The only thing is, it doesnt seem to post the form data to the script.   Here is the form

echo '<form action="regsale.php" method="POST">';
echo '<input type="hidden" name="username" value="<?php echo $username ?>"';
echo '<input type="hidden" name="listing_title" value="<?php echo $listing_title ?>"';
echo '<input type="hidden" name="speciesCommon" value="<?php echo $speciesCommon ?>"';
echo '<input type="hidden" name="cost" value="<?php echo $cost ?>"';
echo '<input type="hidden" name="business" value="<?php echo $business ?>"';
echo '<input type="hidden" name="postage_cost" value="<?php echo $postage_cost ?>"';
echo '<input type="hidden" name="multipostage" value="<?php echo $multipostage ?>"';

echo "<ul class='results'>";
echo '<li>Quantity:</li>';      
echo '<select name="quantity">';
echo "<option value='$quantity'>Maximum of $quantity available</option>";
for ($q=1; $q<=$quantity; $q++) 
{
    echo "<option value='$q'>$q</option>";
}
echo '</select>';
echo' </ul><br>';



echo '<div align="center">';
echo '<br>';
echo '<input type="submit" value="Confirm Purchase"><br>';
echo '</form><br>';

And here is the script that the form is posted to

<?php
include 'init.php';
include 'includes/overall/header.php';
include 'includes/logo.php';


if (!isset($_SESSION['loggedin'])) {
   die("You must be logged in to submit care guides"); //this causes to script to stop executing and lets the user know there is a problem

echo '<strong>Your payment comes to a total of $total; </strong></h2>';

does not work.   Why is the form not posting the values to the database.   Just in case it helps, the form gets its values from the database, and the values are displayed in the sales page on which the form is contained. Here is the page containing the form.
