PHP - Passing Variable To Next Page Something Strange
id not passing onto next page.
when i view the source code the id value is there. <a href='view_designs2.php?id='198'> but when the next page loads there is nothing in the address bar. Code: [Select] <?php echo "<table width='1000' align='center'>"; $data=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM design WHERE jobno='$id' AND status!='rejected'") or die (mysql_error()); $counter = 0; while ($info=mysql_fetch_array($data)){ $img5=$info['name']; $id=$info['id']; $img=$info['thumbs']; echo "<td>"; echo "Design By "."$img5 "."<br><br>"; echo "<a href='view_designs2.php?id='$id'><img src='../dthumbs/$img' style='text-align: center; width:250px; max-height:250px; border: solid 10px; border-radius: 5px; border-color:tan; -moz-box-shadow: 3px 3px 4px #000; -webkit-box-shadow: 3px 3px 4px #000; box-shadow: 3px 3px 4px #000; -ms-filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Shadow(Strength=4, Direction=135, Color='#000000'); filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Shadow(Strength=4, Direction=135, Color='#000000'); ''>"; echo "<br><br></td>"; $counter = $counter + 1; if ($counter==3){ echo "<tr>"; $counter=0; } } echo "</tr></table>"; ?>' Similar TutorialsHello, I'm trying to build a small project; and as part of it - I want users to search and when presented with relevant enteries in the SQL database - they should be able to click and retrieve a page dedicated to that entity. The problem I am having is in passing the 'id' of the search result onto the next (description) page. Code: [Select] $SQL = "SELECT * FROM loads"; $result = mysql_query($SQL); while ($db_field = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { $clickid = $_GET['id']; print $db_field['id'] ."<a href=\"load_info.php?id=$id" . $id . "\" target=\"_self\" title=\"\">More Info</a>;"; print $db_field['depart:'] . "<BR>"; print $db_field['dest'] . "<BR>"; } I thought it was easy enough to pass the variable like above ("load_info.php?id=$id) and then grab it on the next page like so: $val = $_GET['clickid']; Unfortunately, it doesn't retrieve the info from the page before. If I insert a number in there, it does work correctly, but I really need the ID of the database entry to pass on so as to provide the user with further information. If anyone could help it would be appreciated.

Currently I have a dynamic table on one of my webpages, and the loop code looks like this:while ($i < $numRows) { $fname = mysql_result($result, $i, "fname"); $fcode = mysql_result($result, $i, "fcode"); $ftype = mysql_result($result, $i, "ftype"); $fdesc = mysql_result($result, $i, "fdesc"); ?> <tr> <td><a href="showfunction.php?fname=<?php echo "$fname"; ?>" target="_self"> <?php echo "$fname"; ?></a></td> <td> <?php echo "$fdesc"; ?> </td> <td><div align="center"> <?php echo "$ftype"; ?> </div></td> </tr> <?php $i++; } ?> what I would like to do is pass the ''fname'' variable to the "showfunction" page so it can printed from the database. Here is the relevant portion of the page:<body><div class="codeblock"> <div class="title">Code:<br /> </div><code><pre> <?php echo $fcode; ?> </pre></code></div> <br /><pre><hr /> </pre> I know that doesn't work, and I didn't expect it to because there is no way to 'get' the 'fname' variable from the preceeding script. I do not want to use the GET method with this because from what I understand, you can only use it with Forms. I really don't want to put controls in all of my table fields just to be able to pass the function name to the next page. Does that make sense? If I could get a jumpstart on this one last hurdle, I would appreciate it. thank you so much! Cheers. This is driving me MAD! The Variable gets passed through the URL but when I try and echo the result I gte NOTHING. First Page.

Yesterday, it quit working (403 permissions error). After a long bout of trouble-shooting, I found out that it has something to do with mod_security that they have suddenly enabled (have no idea as I'm not a Linux guy). They told me they fixed the problem on my domain by whitelisting it as an exception, but strangely, even though the permissions error went away, the actual src= box of the iframe, which was the url variable I was passing in the url, no longer loads. So.. I'm trying to break this down into the simplest form to figure it out. I just understand php basics so needing some verification that I'm doing this right/wrong. Here's my code.. page1.php Code: [Select] <? $testurl = "http://google.com"; ?> <a href="http://mysite.blah/page2.php?url=<? echo $testurl; ?>">page2.php</a> page2.php Code: [Select] if (isset($_GET['testurl'])) echo $testurl; else echo "sorry dude"; I am only able to print "sorry dude". Am I doing something wrong or shouldn't this send the url? Thanks for the help! The below script for some reason isn't passing along the product_id variable.

Thanks How, if possible, can a $varĀ be passed to theĀ forms action php file? I tried everything with no success. Edited December 24, 2019 by cyberRobotRemoved email address Please forgive my limited knowledge of php. I am trying to pass a variable from 1 page to the next. I have SCRIPT A (I didn't write it) that parses an rss feed and then calls SCRIPT B to insert it into a database. Everything works great.. and all I'm trying to do is add a new piece of information. In my db, I added a column called 'city'. There are currently 25 different SCRIPT A's (25 different city names). I could create 25 SCRIPT Bs and call them individually, but I'm trying to use 1 SCRIPT B and just send the city name. I've read about POST and GET but still not sure on this? Can't I just hard code my city name into each SCRIPT A like this: Code: [Select] $city = "miami"; And then put this at the top of SCRIPT B? Code: [Select] $city = $_GET['city']; Well.. apparently, I can't because that doesn't work. Again.. sorry for the dumb question. It's my first time attempting anything with php. Thanks. www.mywebpage.co.uk/page22 Is it possible to produce a variable with the value = page22 using only the url above, I know that usually you would use get and post, but I was just curious to know if this had been done before. i need to pass the id called id from the maim page to an iframe, but it failes to send. i'm wondering if anyone knows why it fails. Code: [Select] <iframe src="details.php?ID=<?php echo $ID; ?>" width="700px" height="150px"> </iframe> hey ive got a page that lists a users bank accounts...when the user chooses to update an account it goes to a new page where they can edit the details...when it goes to this new page it takes the user's ID and the account ID with it in the URL (http://localhost/oswp/bank/updateaccounts.php?id=34&cid=1) so i know these variables are correctly being transferred. now when the user has made their changes and clicked the update button it should update the database and then re-locate back to the original page listing all accounts...to get back to this page and show the correct accounts for that user i thaught i needed to take the ID from the URL...give it a variable...and use it in the URL back to the original page. so for example the variable and update sql and re-locate code would look like this. $cid = $_GET['cid']; //updating the table $result=mysql_query("UPDATE accounts SET accno='$accno', pin='$pin', type='$type', name='$balance', balance='$balance', active='$active' WHERE accid=$id"); header("location:accounts.php?id=$cid"); however currently when the user clicks update and it tries to relocate back to the original page its not getting the variable in the URL. (http://localhost/oswp/bank/accounts.php?id=) and im getting the errors: Warning: mysql_fetch_array() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in C:\wamp\www\uni\oswp\assignment\bank\accounts.php on line 26 's bank accounts Warning: mysql_fetch_array() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in C:\wamp\www\uni\oswp\assignment\bank\accounts.php on line 30 basically saying its expected a number up in the URL and its not finding one...but i dont know why...any ideas please its quite urgent. here is the relevant code for this section: Accounts.php: <a href="adminlogout.php">Logout</a><br /> <?php $id = $_GET['id']; if(!isset($_SESSION['myusername'])) { header("location:adminlogin.php"); } $dbhost = 'localhost'; $dbuser = 'root'; $dbpass = ''; $db = 'bank'; $conn = mysql_connect($dbhost,$dbuser,$dbpass); mysql_select_db($db); $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM customer WHERE cusid=$id"); $row2 = mysql_fetch_array($result); echo $row2['name'] .
