PHP - How To Pass Variables From Page To Page
How would I pass variables from one page to another without using forms or $_GET features.
Let say I have page (1.php) where If define $secret_phrase = "open sesame";. On that page (1.php) I have multiple html links to multiple pages (2.php, 3.php, ...) if you click on the link to 2.php page I would like to pass the $secret_phrase as well without having it encoded into a link or using forms. Is there a way to do it? Thanks Similar TutorialsHello I have this login page with code Code: [Select] <?php header("Expires: Thu, 17 May 2001 10:17:17 GMT"); // Date in the past header ("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") .

I'm at a loss about what to do next. Any help? i knw dis mst a simple question but how to pass variable to other page for eg i hav created a page where user submits username n telephone then via sms some random number goes to user mobile ...i want this random number variable in other page dis is my code for startreg.php <form action="startregprocess.php" method="post"> username:<input type="text" name="username"> telephone<input type="text" name="telephone" <input type="submit" name="submit"> </form> <?php srand ((double) microtime( )*1000000); $random_number = rand( ); echo $random_number; ?> i want tht $random_number in other page called startregprocess.php I have this function where i want to pass the month and year according to the date drop down that is chosen by the user. But can't seem to get the selected month and year. But instead, i got the month and year for now (which is April 2020). Can any one show me how can i achive this? I mean how can i pass the month and year selected to my `allreport-summary.php` page. It would be better if you guys can show me examples of codes on how can i implement this. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you so much. cheers!

I have a page that has roughly 100 text input fields. Once the user is done, I need to put the data in my mysql db. How do I get the data from the user input page to the php page that will process the data (e.g. process.php)? I've done some searching and found a few possibilities use a ajax style call back to load a seperate asp page (e.g. createsession.asp) and that page set session variables that can then be read by process.php write everything to a cookie using some sort of a delimiter so that it can handle multiple variables (e.g. cookie data => var1/var2/var3/var4... write all the data to a text file and then have process.php load that file Which should I pursue? Is there a better option? Hi guys, I know that you can open web page with $handle = fopen("http://www.example.com/", "r"); but i am wondering is there a way to pass POST vars when doing so, or there is another method that can that like you do it with ajax. I have mvc application that i want to test. I am using CodeIgniter framework so i want to call my controllers with POST values. Every controller method returns data holder object that holds the data of operation whether is successful or not. Also every method inside controller can be called with parameter input or with post input. If you omit the parameters when calling controller method than he will try to load that parameters from post and that is why i want to pass POST vars with php when calling controller for example i want to call: fopen("http://localhost/MyAppFolder/index.php/controller/method"); but i want to pass it some POST vars if that is possible Thanks. First, I will select checkbox then click generate report then it displays the items with download link Then i click download link to download the selected checkbox values in pdf I want to download the selected checkbox items by clicking download link Now i am getting all check box items in the pdf download How to download only the selected check box items Code: [Select] <?php session_start(); $_SESSION['pidd'] = 2; $sessvar = $_SESSION['pidd']; ?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title>Untitled Document</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/style.css" /> <style type="text/css" media="print"> DIV#noprint{visibility:hidden;} INPUT#printbutt{visibility:hidden;} #downloadlink{visibility:hidden;} </style> <script type="text/javascript"> function gen() { var st1=document.getElementById("ckbox1").checked; var st2=document.getElementById("ckbox2").checked; var st3=document.getElementById("ckbox3").checked; var st4=document.getElementById("ckbox4").checked; if(st1 == true) { document.getElementById('g1').style.display = 'block'; } if(st2 == true) { document.getElementById('g2').style.display = 'block'; } if(st3 == true) { document.getElementById('g3').style.display = 'block'; } if(st4 == true) { document.getElementById('g4').style.display = 'block'; } document.getElementById('p_info').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('histree').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('insurence').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('billin').style.display = 'none'; } function showuser() { document.getElementById('g1').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('g2').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('g3').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('g4').style.display = 'none'; var str1=document.getElementById("ckbox1").checked; var str2=document.getElementById("ckbox2").checked; var str3=document.getElementById("ckbox3").checked; var str4=document.getElementById("ckbox4").checked; if(str1 == true) { document.getElementById('p_info').style.display = 'block'; } else document.getElementById('p_info').style.display = 'none'; if(str2 == true) { document.getElementById('histree').style.display = 'block'; } else document.getElementById('histree').style.display = 'none'; if(str3 == true) { document.getElementById('insurence').style.display = 'block'; } else document.getElementById('insurence').style.display = 'none'; if(str4 == true) { document.getElementById('billin').style.display = 'block'; } else document.getElementById('billin').style.display = 'none'; } function checkByParent(aId, aChecked) { var collection = document.getElementById(aId).getElementsByTagName('INPUT'); for (var x=0; x<collection.length; x++) { if (collection[x].type.toUpperCase()=='CHECKBOX') collection[x].checked = aChecked; } } </script> </head> <body> <div id="main_content"> <div id="left"> <div id="noprint"> <h4>Patient Report</h4> <a id="check_all" href="#" style="text-decoration:none" onClick="checkByParent('checkboxes', true); return false;">check all</a> <a id="uncheckall" href="#" style="text-decoration:none" onClick="checkByParent('checkboxes', false); return false;">uncheck all</a> <br> <br> <form method="post" name="myform" action=""> <div id="checkboxes"> <div id="cb_id1"> <input id="ckbox1" name="cbox1" type="checkbox" <? if(isset($_REQUEST['cbox1'])) echo 'checked="checked"' ; ?> value="p_info" /> Patient Info </div> <div id="cb_id2"> <input id="ckbox2" name="cbox2" type="checkbox" <?php if(isset($_REQUEST['cbox2'])) echo 'checked="checked"' ; ?> value="histree" /> History </div> <div id="cb_id3"> <input id="ckbox3" name="cbox3" type="checkbox" <?php if(isset($_REQUEST['cbox3'])) echo 'checked="checked"' ; ?> value="insurance" /> Insurence </div> <div id="cb_id4"> <input id="ckbox4" name="cbox4" type="checkbox" <?php if(isset($_REQUEST['cbox4'])) echo 'checked="checked"' ; ?> value="billin" /> Billing </div> </div> <!--checkboxes div --> <br> <input id="vuprint" name="view" type="button" value="View" onClick="showuser();"> <hr/> <label for="docs"> Documents:<br> <br> </label> <input name="sub" type="button" value="Generate report" onclick="gen();"> <hr/> </form> <input id="printbutt" name="prt" type="button" value="Print" onClick="javascript:window.print();"> </div> <!--No print --> </div> <!--Left div --> <div id="side"> <div id="p_info"> <?php require("db_conn.php"); $pinfo = mysqli_query($mysqli,"SELECT * FROM patient_datas WHERE P_Id='".$sessvar."'

This topic has been moved to PHP Applications. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=357747.0 I'm a very new PHP user (as in, I just started today) and need to make a set of navigation buttons which will take the user to "next" or "previous" pages. I assume that the $_GET function is involved, but I don't know how to do it. It needs to work like this: If the URL looks like "http://website.com/page1.php" I need the "next" button (a href image) to change it to "/page2.php", and while on page 2, for the "previous" button to take the user to "/page1.php" and so forth. How can I cause the page number to increment or decrease respective to the href image being clicked? i have problem : I have a page(page1) that sends details to the login page(page2) to check if the details are correct checks these and if there is a match it directs them to the next page.(page 3) The page1 sends 3 details to the page 2 that are stored into variavles but as there is no submittion when they check the details how do i then send these details onto the page 3 ? Is there anyway I can like "exit" the variables so i can use the same variable name later in the page? I have a php script which is viewed with ajax. The script does some important things and I want to make sure that it's viewed by only the ajax and now the user so I was thinking I'd need to pass a code from the main page using a GET in either php or more likely javascript, as I don't want the user to be able to see the code and then be able to just copy it and view the script with it. I've tried to sort this by saving Math.random() to the database by using ajax using a separate file, then underneath it use it to access the file like this: Code: [Select] function saveCode() { var xmlHttp = connect(); if(xmlHttp != false) {var code = Math.random(); xmlHttp.open('GET', '/inc/battle/saveCode.php?i='+code, true); xmlHttp.onreadystatechange = function() { if(xmlHttp.readyState == 4) { battleLog = xmlHttp.responseText; battleList = battleLog.split('\n'); battleCount = battleList.length; addLine(); } } xmlHttp.send('null'); } This would save the code to the database, then with a separate function, namely endBattle() the variable code would be used to access a file called endBattle.php?i= where this script would compare the code from the GET variable to the code in the database. However, I realised before finishing this that the user could manually set the code to whatever they want through the saveCode.php page, then view the endBattle.php Does anyone have any ideas how else I could validate my endBattle.php page so that users couldn't view it in their browser to run it? Forgive me if this is in the completely wrong forum, I just thought I'd see whether there were any php methods of doing this. Thanks! Hey people, I know this is going back to basics but i'm just learning and want to make sure I do it all correctly. I want to pass variable's from one page to another. Now currently say I wanted to hold the users age and email address from his record in the database from page A and pass it to page B for it to be displayed back to him I would store each in their own session variable (so for the purpose of the explanation session_user_email=me@email.com and session_user_age=18. On page B I would then call the session and store it in a variable then destroy the session. Just out of curiosity is the the best way to pass the data? or should i use another method? i've read about session hijacking and i'm now worried about holding personal data within a session so i'm wondering what other people do?? Cheers Hey guys, Was wondering if someone could point me on the right path here. I am able to get the page URL using: $url = (!empty($_SERVER['HTTPS'])) ? "https://".$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'].$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] : "http://".$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'].$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; But was wondering if there was a way to drop the PHP variables attached to the URL. e.g. mysite.com/catalogue/?item=23 becomes mysite.com/catalogue/ Can anyone help me out? Thanks! Hi all, I've been trying to create a page whereby a user enters a few details which is then emailed, but I'm seriously stuck on one issue. First page - console type Second page - serial number Only two steps at the moment as I need to figure it out. I'm passing everything into a variable from a post(ed) form. It appears on the next page fine, as I've been testing, but the details entered on the first page don't show on the third, however, the details from the second page do! Here is the code I have: Code: [Select] <?php switch ($step) { case "1": ?> <table width="75%" align="center"> <tr> <td colspan="2" valign="top"> <form action="?step=2" method="post" id="consoletype">Please select your console type<br /></td></tr> <tr><td align="center" valign="top" width="50%"> <label>Xbox 360 Original (Beige or Black)<br /><img src="images/xbox360orig.gif" width="250" height="250"><br /><input class="button" type="radio" name="console" value="xboxorig" /></label></td> <td align="center" valign="top" width="50%"><label>Xbox 360 Slim<br /><img src="images/xbox360slim.gif" width="250" height="250"><br /><input type="radio" name="console" value="xboxslim" /></label></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"> <input type="submit" value="Next"> </form> </td> </tr> </table> <?php echo $code; include("footer.php"); echo $code2; include("compat.php"); echo $code3; case "2": $console = $_POST['console']; echo $console; ?> Please enter your Xbox 360 Serial Number:<br /> <form action="?step=3" method="post"> <input name="serialno" type="text" size="20" maxlength="20"> <input type="submit" value="Next"> </form> <?php echo $code; include("footer.php"); echo $code2; include("compat.php"); echo $code3; case "3": echo "<br />"; $serialno = $_POST['serialno']; echo $serialno; echo $console; echo $code; include("footer.php"); echo $code2; include("compat.php"); echo $code3; } ?> I do understand it's messy at the moment but I don't see much point beautifying everything until I can solve this problem! Cheers! Hello all, I'm new to php and I'm running into some trouble. I'm hoping someone will be able to help me. Here is the code I already have: <?php include "include/dbc.php"; include "include/header.inc"; ?> <style type="text/css"> .mydate{ color:#00F; text-decoration:underline; cursor:pointer; } </style> <script type="text/javascript"> function displayDate(d){ var date=new Date(); var D=date.getDate(); date.setDate(D+d); var YYYY=date.getFullYear(); var MM=date.getMonth()+1; MM<10?MM='0'+MM:null; var DD=date.getDate(); DD<10?DD='0'+DD:null; var span=document.getElementById('date'); span.innerHTML= 'Entries for '+MM+'/'+DD+'/'+YYYY; } onload=function(){displayDate(0)}; </script> <h1>Food Diary</h1> <div class="full"> <center><div><span class="mydate" onclick="displayDate(-1)"><img src="images/left_arrow.png" border="0">Yesterday</span> <span id="date" style="font-size:2em;"></span> <span class="mydate" onclick="displayDate(1)">Tomorrow<img src="images/right_arrow.png" border="0"></span></div><br /> <a href="#" onclick="displayDate(0);return false;">Today</a> </center> <div class="full"> <form name="exercise" id="exercise" method="GET" action=""> <center><table> <tr> <td><h3>Add an Activity</h3></td> </tr> <tr> <td><input name="NewSearchString" style="width: 100px" type="text"/> <input type="submit" value="Search" /> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <select name="activity"> <option value="_">Activity Browse...</option> <option value="all">All Activities</option> <option value="biking">Biking</option> <option value="condition">Conditioning</option> <option value="dancing">Dancing</option> <option value="fish">Fishing & Hunting</option> <option value="Home">Home Activities</option> <option value="misc">Miscellaneous</option> <option value="music">Music Playing</option> <option value="occupation">Occupation</option> <option value="running">Running</option> <option value="sports">Sports</option> <option value="walking">Walking</option> <option value="water">Water Activities</option> <option value="winter">Winter Activities</option> </select> <input type="submit" value="Submit" /></td></tr></table></center></form> </td> </tr> </table> </center> <table width="100%"> <tr bgcolor="#66CC33"> <td><div>Activity</div></td> <td><div>Specific Activity</div></td> <td><div>Time (hh:mm)</div></td> <td><div>Distance</div></td> <td><div>Units</div></td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#66CC33"> <td><div></div></td> <td><div></div></td> <td><div></div></td> <td><div class="Float"></div></td> <td class="cp_Distance"><div></div></td> </tr> <?php if(isset($_GET[activity])) { $category=$_GET[activity]; $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM exercise WHERE type='$category'"); ?> <form action="add_activity.php" method="post"> <?php while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { echo '<tr><td><div>'.$row[Type].'</div></td>'; echo '<td><div>'.$row[Name].'<input type="hidden" name="exerciseid" value="'.$row[No].'"></div></td>'; echo '<td><div><input type="text" name="duration"></div></td>'; echo '<td><div><input type="text" name="distance"></div></td>'; echo '<td><div><select> <option value="mile">mile</option> <option value="Km">km</option> <option value="M">m</option> <option value="Yard">yrd</option> <option value="Feet">ft</option> </select></div></td></tr>'; } mysql_close(); ?> <tr><td colspan="6" align="center"><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Add Activities"></td></tr> </form> <?php } ?> <tr bgcolor="#66CC33"> <td><div></div></td> <td><div></div></td> <td><div></div></td> <td><div class="Float"></div></td> <td class="cp_Distance"><div></div></td> </tr></table> This code is supposed to pull info from a database and place it in a table. Once the user clicks the add activities button at the bottom, there values are supposed to be passed and displayed in the second page. Here's what I have for the second page: <?php include "include/dbc.php"; include "include/header.inc"; $activity = $_POST['activity']; $exercise = $_POST['exercise']; $duration = $_POST['duration']; $distance = $_POST['distance']; echo $exercise; echo $duration; echo $distance; ?> (Keep in mind that I am using this code to test the functionality of the page before I make it look nice) When I pass the values to the 2nd page, I get a black screen. Nothing is passing and I don't know why. Am I going about this the wrong way? Is there something I need to do to make the code better? Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks in advance. |
