PHP - How To Send Textarea As Input
Hi,
This is driving me to distraction. I have been using this code Code: [Select] <?php $mailto = "edwin@btconnect.com"; $subject = "enquiry"; $message = "Values submitted from web site form:"; $header = "From: ".$_POST['email']; foreach ($_POST as $key => $value) { if (!is_array($value)) { $message .= "\n".$key." : ".$value; } else { foreach ($_POST[$key] as $itemvalue) { $message .= "\n".$key." : ".$itemvalue; } } } mail($mailto, $subject, stripslashes($message), $header); ?> very successfully but now I want to receive information from a 'textarea' in a form but it just doesn't get treated as input. The form is here; <form name="enquiry" method="post" action="feedback.php"> <tr> <td align="left">Name:</td> <td align="right"><input type="text" name="name" size="25" value=""></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left">email:</td> <td align="right"><input type="text" name="email" size="25" value=""></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left" valign="top">Blurb:</td> <td align="right"><textarea rows="4" cols="19" value=""></textarea></td> </tr> <tr><td colspan="2" align="right"> <input name="submit" type="image" src="report.gif" width="40" height="20" border="0"> </td></tr></form> Can anyone please help? edwind Similar TutorialsI have a form that generates html code, and displays it in a textarea with submit button. I want to submit button to take the data entered in that textarea1 on page 1, and upload to textarea2 on page 2 How can I do this? I have no idea where to start. Hi i would like to know what is the best way to check if a textarea or an input box is empty. Is the empty function effective? This topic has been moved to Third Party PHP Scripts. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=306489.0 Hi all . In my scripts , there is a textbox that allow user to enter multiple phone number separate with "," , if all valid it will echo "ok!" else will echo "error" . How if I want to know which value is in wrong format? such as I entered "0112255666,445221122200" , then it will echo " 445221122200 is not a valid phone number" . And how to echo the total phone number inserted to the textarea ? Thanks for every reply . Code: [Select] <?php if (isset($_POST["Submit"])) { $arrLines = split(",",$_POST['cellphonenumber']); foreach($arrLines as $cells){ if(!preg_match('/^[0]{1}[1]{1}[0-9]{1}[0-9]{7}?$/', $cells)){ echo "error"; } else{ echo "ok!"; } } } ?> <form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ?>" name="myform" method="post"> <textarea name="cellphonenumber" rows="20" cols="100"></textarea> <input type="submit" name="Submit" /> </form> Hi, PHP newbie here, and my first post. I am in the process of learning PHP. Currently I am looking at forms and DB input. I would like to verify if my current method of keeping the linebreaks from a TEXTAREA field, and still keep the DB input safe is correct. I use the following code to get the input from the TEXTAREA field. Code: [Select] $comments = mysql_real_escape_string(nl2br(filter_var($_POST["comments"], FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING)));Is this the correct way of handling this? Thanks I am stumped here, can not figure out a efficient way to collect all the data on this page and send it to my to user's id number. I am trying to format the email to include question #1 and then next to it radio1 (answer yes/no) , question#2 and so on followed by the viewers input from the last part of the form. Does any one know of some thing im missing here? <?php session_start(); // If the session vars aren't set, try to set them with a cookie if (!isset($_SESSION['user_id'])) { if (isset($_COOKIE['user_id']) && isset($_COOKIE['username'])) { $_SESSION['user_id'] = $_COOKIE['user_id']; $_SESSION['username'] = $_COOKIE['username']; } } ?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Social Filter - View Profile</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css" /> </head> <body> <h3>View Profile</h3> <font size="2"> <?php require_once('appvars.php'); require_once('connectvars.php'); // Make sure the user is logged in before going any further. if (!isset($_SESSION['user_id'])) { echo '<a href="signup.php">Create your own account</a>.</p>'; } else { echo('<p class="login">You are logged in as ' . $_SESSION['username'] .

Thank You Edited February 8, 2020 by karthicbabuI am working on a phpmailer script that sends an order confirmation email to the customer AND the client at the same time. If I have the customer email and client email set both to the originating domain's email addresses (myname@myserver.com), then it sends fine. However, if I try to send to an outside mail server (eg. someone@gmail.com), I get the following errors: Code: [Select] SMTP -> FROM SERVER:220 myserver.com ESMTP Exim 4.63 Sat, 18 Sep 2010 15:08:21 -0700 SMTP -> FROM SERVER: 250 myserver.com Hello localhost [127.0.0.1] 250-SIZE 52428800 250-PIPELINING 250-AUTH LOGIN PLAIN 250-STARTTLS 250 HELP SMTP -> FROM SERVER:250 OK SMTP -> FROM SERVER:250 Accepted SMTP -> FROM SERVER: SMTP -> ERROR: RCPT not accepted from server: SMTP Error: The following recipients failed: someone@gmail.com Message could not be sent. Mailer Error: SMTP Error: The following recipients failed: someone@gmail.com SMTP server error: I'm not sure what's going on here. Any SMTP or phpmailer geniuses here that can shed some light on what needs to happen here for this to send to any address? Hi, I'm trying to setup a quick PHP script that will grab the email from the url (see below) and after inserting into MySQL db - which is working fine - the script will complete two additional tasks: 1. send that same captured email out to a external db as in shown via http://domain1.com/insert.php?email=$lead (example), but then send to a DIFFERENT source - the originator of the lead - a portback acknowledgement using Header (sending the status and email to http://domain2.com/check.php?e=$lead&s=$status for their records). See the code below: ------------------------- Code: [Select] $lead = $_REQUEST['e_mail']; // will grab email from posted url string and assign to local variable $result = mysql_query($command); // this is just to execute the MySQL insert which works just fine but included here to explain validation below // Create API Call string to insert lead into iContact folder $requestURL = "http://domain1.com/insert.php?email=$lead"; // Execute API Call to CAKE $xml = simplexml_load_file($requestURL) or die("feed not loading"); if ($result) { $status = 1; // mark lead as sucess // send postback on lead status header("Location: http://domain2.com/check.php?e=$lead&s=$status"); } -------- Problem: I'm getting all sorts of errors with the simplexml_load_file() function and can't figure out why it won't work. Any input appreciated as this the only way I know how to pass the lead onward and then inform/update the other party of receipt of information. thanks! I am writing a script that will parse my PHP classes and check for things like coupling, visualize my objects and connections, dependencies, check for convention usage, etc.
So, I have a simple file upload. I'm never saving the files, just get contents and dump the file and work with the string version.
I'm writing it for me, but I figure I might want to open it for others to use in the future, so I may as well write it that way to begin with -- so I need to validate user input. Problem is, the user input is supposed to be valid PHP code. I'm thinking that, as long as I'm careful, I shouldn't be executing any code contained in strings, but I'm no security expert and I want a warm fuzzy that my thought on this is correct. What kinds of things do I need to look out for? Is it possible to inject when working with strings?
My initial thought is to regex the entire file and replace key portions with known replacements. So ( and ) would become !* and !^ or $ would become @~ (combinations that -- I think -- don't make sense to php?) But that may be completely unnecessary processing time if I'm not in any danger, here. Thanks ahead of time for any help.
PS - as a side question -- what's the best way to verify a file is a php file? I know of getimagesize for images, but should I just check for <? to verify it's php? That seems like it would be too easy to fool -- then again, it might not matter much.

I hope I can explain what is happening. I have created two forms in PHP. The first 'almost' works, i.e. it shows the data. But I have two problems - 1) the second pulldown menu is always empty and 2) $value from the first pulldown menu ALWAYS equals the last entry thus the last 'if' in the function subdomains ($domains) is always called (but still empty). The code may explain this better than me:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<!-- processDomains.php is this file - it calls itself (for testing purposes so I can see what is happening) -->
<form action="processDomains.php" method="post">
<?php
// create the domains array (there are actually several entries in the array but I cut it down for testing)
$domains = array (1 => 'Decommission', 'Migration');
echo "Select Domain:";
echo "<br>";
// Make the domain pull-down menu - this displays correctly
echo '<select name="domain">';
foreach ($domains as $key => $value) {
echo "<option value=\"$key\">$value</option>\n";
}
echo '</select>';
// input doesn't matter what is 'submitted', always goes to last $value
echo '<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit">';
// call function subdomains
subdomains ($value);
function subdomains ($domains) {
// define values for each array - each array contains available choices for the subdomain pulldown menu
$migration = array (1 => 'Application Migration', 'Application Patch', 'Application Upgrade');
$decommission = array (1 => 'Applications', 'Servers', 'Storage');
if ($domains === 'Migration') {
echo "Select subdomain:";
echo "<br>";
// Make the Migration pull-down menu
echo '<select name="migration">';
foreach ($migration as $key => $value) {
echo "<option value=\"$key\">$value</option>\n";
}
echo '</select>';
} else if ($domains === 'Decommission') {
/* ===
* since 'Decommission' is the last entry in the 'Domains' pulldown list, $value ALWAYS equals
* 'Decommission' and $domains equals $value. So this menu SHOULD work but is always
* empty. Thus, two problems - the pulldown menu is always empty and $value isn't based
* upon user input.
*/
echo "Select subdomain:"; // this prints so I know I'm in 'Decommission (I eliminated the echo "$domain" to show I'm always coming here)'
echo "<br>";
// Make the 'Decommission' pull-down menu
echo '<select name="decommission">';
foreach ($decommission as $key => $value) {
echo "<option value=\"$key\">$value</option>\n";
}
echo '</select>';
echo '<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit">'
) // end of 'if-else'
} // end of function 'subdomain'
?>
</form>
</body>
</html>
Let me say thank you in advance and I appreciate the help! I know I'm doing something (or more than one thing) wrong and I hope someone can tell me what it is.
Best Regards!
Edited by mac_gyver, 19 January 2015 - 09:37 PM. code tags around posted code please I have a calendar select date function for my form that returns the date in the calendar format for USA: 02/16/2012. I need to have this appear as is for the form and in the db for the 'record_date' column, but I need to format this date in mysql DATE format (2012-02-16) and submit it at the same time with another column name 'new_date' in the database in a hidden input field. Is there a way to do this possibly with a temporary table or something? Any ideas would be welcome.

Thanks Code: [Select] <td> <textarea name="comments" cols"100" rows="5"> </textarea><br> </td> i have a textarea and the content is description. how do i save this to database, because sometimes it has ' and " so it fails when i insert it into database, what should i use addslashes? Hi All, New to PHP so any help appreciated
Can anyone explain why this;
<tr><td><label for="notes">Notes:</label> Displays data from a MySQL database (field $notes, VARCHAR(250) ) and this;
<tr><td class=textboxlabel><label for="notes">Notes:</label> displays nothing????
Not sure how much info to provide........ Edited November 20, 2019 by cyberRobotAdded a more meaningful post title I have a textarea displaying data from a mysql table. However, a user discovered today that if they use a carriage return in the textarea, the data comes out with "rn" at the location in the text where the carriage return goes. I have been searching the forums for a while this afternoon and have found quite a few references to this, but have been unable to fix my problem. I am using mysql_real_escape_string before inserting into database (I am not using anything else at insertion time). Is there something else that I should be using at either the insertion into the database or when I display the data? I have tried various combinations of htmlspecialchars() and htmlentities() and nl2br() with no luck. Here is a sample of the output in my textarea: Quote copy diagonal lines and a square with no more than 1/4" overlap or gap at point of closure(modified).rn2.Patient will draw a person ........ Should look like: Quote copy diagonal lines and a square with no more than 1/4" overlap or gap at point of closure(modified). 2.Patient will draw a person ........ Thanks for the help. Matt Please help refresh my memory... It seems to me that there is some combination with nl2br that is a no-no... I am thinking I need to remove nl2br in this code... <textarea id="comments" name="comments" cols="50" rows="15"><?php if (isset($comments)){echo nl2br(htmlentities($comments, ENT_QUOTES));} ?></textarea> Debbie |
