PHP - Zero's And Null's In Form Fields
I have got another of those problems that should be easy to solve but I cannot get my head round it!
I have a form to enter data into a table and one of the fields can be left blank. However, I'd data is entered in the field it can be a Zero. This is leaving me a problem as I cannot find a way to get the script to insert NULL if the field is blank but actually put the Zero in if that is what is entered. I have tried several permutations of nested if's using empty or isset, but whatever I try, the same result is inserted in both scenarios. The arguments I need to pass are...... If field is empty INSERT null If field is 0 INSERT 0 If field is not empty and not 0 INSERT field Thanks in advance for any suggestions. Steve Similar TutorialsA select query I've written joins three tables. The query works fine, pulling up a users table, a table for specials advertising that are entered by members, a and a third table the identivies members who have joined a customer application.
A page displays listing all the entries who have joined the customer application, their names, address, etc display but if they have not set up their special advertising, then the fields for that table display NULL.
I have tried an If and an ifelse to not display text (you can see in the code the HTML Hours of Operation: and Specials:). Thee field I am using to differentiate is "m_primeID", it is an intiger field. The if statement I've written is follows.
if( $row["$m_primeID"] == 'NULL' ) { $company .= ""; } elseif( $row["$m_primeID"] <> 'NULL' ) { $company .= "<b>Hours of Operation:</b><br>" . ($row["m_coupon_title"]) . "<br /><br />\n"; $company .= "<b>Special:</b><br>" .($row["m_coupon_desc"]) . "<br /><br />\n"; }Here is a screen shot of part of the joined tables. This screen shot show the Null on the joined tables that don't have customer advertising set up.

I can't find a way to do it. Does anyone have any ideas. Many thanks Hello again. I need help for a PHP project I'm working on for school. I need it to do the following: 1) When nothing is entered, it will echo "Please enter a number." 2) When "0" is entered, it will echo "Please enter a number that is not zero." My code is as follows... <form action="hwpositive.php" method="post"> Enter number <input type="text" name="number"/><br /> </form> <?php $input = $_POST['number']; // if number entered is less than 0 if ($input<0) { echo "Enter a positive number."; } // if number entered is greated than 1000 elseif ($input>1000) { echo "Enter a number less than 1000."; } // if number entered is not a number (ie, a letter, a character) elseif (!is_numeric($input)) { echo "<br><img src=\"squidward.jpg\"><br><br>Enter a valid number. "; } // if number entered is between 1-999 elseif (($input>0) && ($input<1000)) { echo "hello world " . $i . "<br />"; } // if number entered is zero elseif ($input===0) { echo "Please enter a number that is not zero."; } // if no number is entered elseif ($input=null) { echo "Please enter a number."; } else { echo "Please enter a number."; } ?> However, it's not working. What am I doing wrong? Everytime I enter this page, it should show me "Please enter a number" because I haven't entered anything yet, but it doesn't. It's showing me the image right away. I don't understand... Help me, please! Thank you so much in advance. I appreciate the help. 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?

Is there anything wrong (or insecure) with using hidden form fields? I am working on a page where the user can choose one of 4 different subscription options. The approach I was going to use is to have a separate form for each plan, and when the user chooses one, submit a hidden form value so my script knows which subscription plan to grab out of the database. Thoughts? Hello. So I already know an extremely elementary way to check to see if a form field is blank using PHP. For example: Code: [Select] if ($subject == "") The question I have is, is there a way to have php check every field in a form to make sure it has some sort of value? I want to create an 'if' statement which basically says, "If all form fields have something filled in, then do this" For example Code: [Select] if ($subject == "any value") & ($name == "any value") & ($comment == "any value") Not sure if that makes sense. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! Hello everyone I need your assitance a great deal, so I have a form which i submitted to a php file throug ajax and jquery. It is working A ok but I want to be able to submit it with javascript instead, so i don't load any lib. And it is now a problem. The method I use to get the form field names and values in jquery is so simple and dynamic hence if changes are made on the html form i don't have to edit my jquery file to effect the change ie in respect to changing the name of the fields or adding more fields. But I don't know to archieve this using javascript. So i want to post my jquery script, for you all my mighty programmers to assist me get a javascript Clone for me, thank you very much for Helping Jquery file $("form.ajax").on("submit", function(){ var that= $(this); that.find('[name]').each(function(index,value){ var that = $(this), name =that.attr('name'), value =that.val(); data[name]=value; }); return false;}); Now the above code is just my major focus of the script. What it does is that select the form with an ajax class attribute and run a function after the user submits the form. The var that get reference to the above form throug the (this) reference. Next i use find fuction to look through out the open and close of our form.ajax form for any element that has the name attribute and set it into array using the .each(function (index,value){}) this is my main focus how to ilterate through the form looking for name attribute and set my finding into array using javascript. The next that var reference to the find statement and then we steal the name attribute and value from our findings and set an array called data with the stolen name variable as its index n value attribute as its value. Thank you once more my aim again is with the find and array setting statement. Good morning, I am a beginner at PHP, but trying to write a simple script to use at work and currently stuck on one part, looking for some advice! I have a simple form here > http://jmdostal.com/route2.php (Feel free to use it to test), that returns data on the next page, in a format such as : Jose F - Jose A - 285 Brenda L [Delivery] [Dallas] - Items Job 2 [Pickup] [Arlington] - Items [] [] - [] [] - [] [] - [] [] - [] [] - Gustavo - +1 - 284/pickup Jody W [Delivery] [Keller] - Items [] [] - [] [] - [] [] - [] [] - [] [] - [] [] - My question is how can I get it not to show the fields that are empty, so I dont have a bunch of lines with [] [] - formatting Here is my coding you can view here > http://jmdostal.com/code.txt A friend had suggested to me trying to use isset , so I tried it on a few lines, such as : if(isset($_POST['items14'])){ $items14 = "- ". Trim(stripslashes($_POST['items14'])); } But it didnt seem to change anything. Im sure this is something simply, Any suggestions are appreciated! Thanks ! Hello
I'm using a small script (that I found online) to dynamically add fields to an order form.
It works well with normal text fields but I would like to use it with a select box fields (as it draws data from MySQL).
My problem is, that when the field is 'cloned' it contains the product id and not the product name - which is what the user needs to see.
<?php echo '<form method="post" name="orderform">'; // lots of form fields... echo '<div id="itemRows">'; echo 'Item quantity: <input type="text" name="add_qty" size="4" />'; $prod = "SELECT prod_id, product FROM products ORDER BY product ASC"; $prodRes = $mysqli->query($prod); echo 'Item name : <select name="add_name">'; while ($p = $prodRes->fetch_assoc()) { echo'<option value="'.$p['prod_id'].'">'.$p['product'].'</option>'; } echo '</select>'; echo '<input onclick="addRow(this.form);" type="button" value="Add row" /> (Won't be saved until you click on "Add row")'; if(isset($product['qty']) && isset($product['name'])) { ?> <p id="oldRow<?=$product['id']?>"> Item quantity: <input type="text" name="qty<?=$product['id']?>" size="4" value="<?=$product['qty']?>" /> Item name: <input type="text" name="name<?=$product['id']?>" value="<?=$product['add_name']?>" /> <input type="checkbox" name="delete_ids[]" value="<?=$product['id']?>"> Mark to delete </p> </div> <?php } ?> </div> <input type="submit" value="Submit new order" name="addOrder"> </fieldset> </div> </form> <script type="text/javascript"> var rowNum = 0; function addRow(frm) { rowNum ++; var row = '<p id="rowNum'+rowNum+'">Item quantity: <input type="text" name="qty[]" size="4" value="'+frm.add_qty.value+'"> Item name: <input type="text" name="name[]" value="'+frm.add_name.value+'"> <input type="button" value="Remove" onclick="removeRow('+rowNum+');"></p>'; jQuery('#itemRows').append(row); frm.add_qty.value = ''; frm.add_name.value = ''; } function removeRow(rnum) { jQuery('#rowNum'+rnum).remove(); } </script>I know I could use the $p['product'] value in the select box field, but when it is submiitted - it loses its $p['prod_id'] value which I need to input back into the MySQL database. I did try echo'<option value="'.$p['prod_id'].':'.$p['product'].'">'.$p['product'].'</option>';and then explode... foreach($_POST['name'] as $key => $value) { $items[] = current(explode(":", $value)); }...but clearly, that is a dreradful solution and looks awful to the user.

Thanks in advance Hi I've got a form that users enter an identification pin in for their first question as well as clicking a radio button(Q1.php) . They click submit and the answers are put through a couple of multiplication function and then placed in a table (alongside the pin) via Q2.php. On the Q2 page I want to place the 2nd question that the user needs to answer. Rather than making them retype the pin I was hoping to process it as a hidden field - being picked up from their Q1.php entry. This 'hidden pin echo ' process will continue throughout Q2- Q10 pages. However - I can't seem to include any php in the page after the Q1 form has been processed.
