PHP - Php_self ? For Pikachu2000

Hi,

I have an issue here, after user log in, it will direct them back to the url link '.admin.php', however it has directed them to this url 'http://www.123.com\/admin.php'. As you can see there is an extra backward slash, may I know what would have caused the backward slash? May I know how do I rectify it? Thanks


Code: [Select]
$home_url = 'http://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . dirname($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']) . '/admin.php';
header('Location: ' . $home_url);

Can someone tell me what some of the purposes of this would be?
global $PHP_SELF;

its defined right after a function like this

function myFunction(module =' '){
global $PHP_SELF;

....

}
Thanks

everytime i go to login or register on my site
i get this in the URL:http://localhost/%3C?$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?%3E

<form class="form" action="<?$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>" method="post">

I have been messing with this for a few hours, and I cannot get this to work with my click. On the first example, the php runs regardless of click or not - basically when the page loads it runs... And the second, I cannot figure out how to store the while loop results in a variable to pass to the page.. I would prefer to use my first method as it's much cleaner and less code. IS this even possible? Basically I just want to run my function ONLY when the button is clicked.

<a href="" onCLick="<?php myFunction(); ?>"/>Click to run function</a>

OR

<form method="post" action="<?php $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>">
<input type="hidden" name="myFunctionRun" value=""/>
<input type="submit" value="Run Function">
</form>

How come my$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] echos the filename.php

I have a rewrite rule and i need it to echo

http://site.com/file/321

instead of filename.php?id=321


Help! Godaddy wont tell me why its doing that

If I have this code throughout my website...
Code: [Select]
$_SESSION['currentpage']=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
I'm finding that if the URL is "mypage.php?id=1", then $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] only returns "mypage.php" (it excludes anything appended to the end of the URL).

Is that right?  If so, how can I preserve the full URL (i.e. including the stuff after the question mark)

Hi I am new to PHP and this is my first post one here so appologies is this questions seems a bit dumb!

I have an if clause such that if a button is pressed on my web page then i want to reload the page and include a new form on it.

I am having a problem getting the $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] command to work from iside a echo command. I must not be escaping the code correctly with back slashes:

I currently have the line :

 
echo"<form method=\"POST\" action=\"\<?$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?\>\">";


However this doesnt seem to work as my page just doesnt display in the browser.

Any advice is much appreciated.

Thanks for taking the time to read.

I am just setting up a db to catch user info on my site. After some testing all is working except that when I use Safari, my log wrongly shows that I am using Firefox. I have been scanning the web for a solution but all workarounds I have found seem to be very out of date. Can anyone help with this? here is the code I am using:

Code: [Select]
//logs user info to db
$browser = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];
$time = $_SERVER['REQUEST_TIME'];
$refer = $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];
$page = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
$pageQuery = $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];

Hi there,

I'm trying to make my code more efficient by using <?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?> ....where I've been used to having two pages with forms - one for filling out the form, and then a second page to process it / confirm, etc.

The page in question is designed to send a reminder of a user's password to their email address.

They basically put their email address into a form with one field, next to which it says:

"So...You forgot your password eh? Give us your email address and we'll send it to you."

I've got the code set up so it sends the email with the password, no problems.

However, once they've pressed submit, they can still see the message  "So...You forgot your password eh? Give us your email address and we'll send it to you"...as well as the form field and submit button.

I'd love to know what I need to do to hide these after the user has pressed submit??

Here's the code:
Code: [Select]

    <?php
if(isset($_POST['submit'])) 
{ 

 $emailaddress = $_POST['emailaddress'];
 
echo "We've sent an email to $emailaddress, reminding you of your password.";


 //MySQL Database Connect
 include 'mysql_connect_applications.php'; 

// Get all the data from the "example" table

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM applications2011 WHERE emailaddress= '$emailaddress'  LIMIT 0,1 ")
or die(mysql_error());

while($row = mysql_fetch_array( $result )) {

 $password = $row['password'];
}

// keeps getting the next row until there are no more to get

//***********************Email to forgetful user code***********************

$to = "$emailaddress\n";
$subject = "C2K Application";
$headers = "From: coast2kosci@coast2kosci.com";

$message = "Hi there, 

Seems you forgot your password. Here it is:

Password:  $password

Yours in the long run,

Dave.\n";
if (preg_match(' /[\r\n,;\'"]/ ', $_POST['emailaddress'])) {
  exit('Invalid Email Address');
}
else {
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
}

//***********************End of Email to applicant code***********************
   
}
?>
             
             
                <form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>">
                  <p>
                    <label>
                      So...You forgot your password eh? Give us  your email address and we'll send it to you.
                      <input type="text" name="emailaddress" id="emailaddress" />
                    </label>
                  </p>
                  <p>
                    <label>
                      <input type="submit" name="submit" id="submit" value="Submit Form" />
                    </label>
                  </p>
                </form>

Hello

I have a from that updates a few things in the db, and uses "<?php echo $PHP_SELF;?>".

The form does update everything fine, however that page does not reflect it. If I refresh the page manually
I can see the new values.

Is this a common thing, and can anything be done to fix this?
