I can't seem to figure out the rest of what is required I have already done most of it...I'm just stuck on these parts: Province Select : (AutoGeneration, Multiple Select, Memory) AutoGeneration using Provinces Array: The Province Select box is generated by PHP using this array: provinces.txt Cut and paste this array into your own code. Multiple Selections: Note that the province select box permits multiple values to be selected. View the HTML source to see the configuration details. Also note how $_POST delivers these multiple values as an array. Select Box Memory: The Province select box retains the user choices after a POST. For each province selected by the user, your code will generate the "selected" attribute in the <options> tag for that province. View the HTML source of the working solution to see how this works. Status CheckBoxes (Multiple Select, Memory) Multiple Selections: Note that these checkboxes have been configured in the HTML to permit multiple selections. Also note that $_POST delivers these multiple selection values in an array. Status Box Memory:The Status Box retains the user choices after a POST. Your code will need to generate the "checked" attribute in the <input> tag for each item selected. Do not generate the checkboxes with an array. Location Radio button: Do not generate the radio buttons with an array. The Location radio button retains the user choice after a POST. Validation Success Message: Where does it go - The final success message is placed within the <div class="success"></div> tags at the top of the HTML. Use a Loop: Generate the success message with a single array loop that reads the $_POST array and prints out the success message as an ordered list. Form Variables List Un-Ordered List - The form variables are displayed in an unordered list . CSS removes the bullet. Names Capitolised - The names of the form variables are capitolised ( use strtoupper() function ) . Handle Empty Values - Print "---None supplied---" if the variable is empty. Province Long Names - Print the long names of the provinces selected as comma separated string Status Choices - Print the status choices as a comma separated string. Functions I need to use: empty() - is the string empty. Unfortunately, a "0" value counts as an empty string. strlen() - returns the number of characters in a string. is_numeric() - is the string a number count() - how many rows in an array is_array() - is the variable an array isset() - does the variable or member of array exist in_array() -does this string exist in this array strtoupper() - convert string to upper case. join() - you'll want this one too. Converts an array of strings into a string with a delimiter. error_reporting(E_ALL ^ (E_NOTICE | E_WARNING)); - suppresses warning messages in your code. Place at top. foreach ($_POST as $KEY => $VAL) {} - walk through the $_POST array (or any array) My code: Code: [Select] <!--"StAuth10065: I Adam Graham, 000136921 certify that this material is my original work.

But, where do I put MY (fixed) email address to make it send TWO emails? Thanks for any help!!! I'm very new at this stuff. I am trying to add some simple validation to my form. I only wanter users to be able to enter 11 numbers into the number field or else it will say 11 digit numbers only. A validation to only allow users to input numbers anything else and it brings up an error. and finally i want to check the email string to make sure it has an @ and a (.) . How would i go about adding these validation techniques to this code? <?php if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD']=="POST"){ // Recipent Email $to="andrew@peppermintdigital.com"; $subject="Reply to Peppermint Invitation"; $title = $_POST['title']; $name = stripslashes($_POST['name']); $add1 = stripslashes($_POST['add1']); $add2 = stripslashes($_POST['add2']); $add3 = stripslashes($_POST['add3']); $add4 = stripslashes($_POST['add4']); $postcode = stripslashes($_POST['postcode']); $number = stripslashes($_POST['number']); $email = stripslashes($_POST['email']); $time = $_POST['time']; $from = ($_POST['name']) .

Hi! I am not great at using php but do use it to process forms on websites. I always use the same script and just change the relevant sections for each website. This usually works with no problems. I am writing an mailing list subscribe/unsubscribe form my website and it works fine as in I get the email sent through with all the information on it and the automated reply gets sent out etc. The problem is that once the user hits Submit instead of going to the redirect page it stays on the php page. if($from == '') {print "You have not entered an email, please go back and try again";} else { if($name == '') {print "You have not entered a company name, please go back and try again";} else { $send = mail($to, $subject, $body, $headers); $send2 = mail($from, $subject2, $autoreply, $headers2); if($send) {header( "Location: http://www.hillsideweb.co.uk/unsubthanks.html" );} Like I say this exact script works on another site of mine perfectly well, can someone please help me solve this. The form is found on http://www.hillsideweb.co.uk/unsubscribe.html I hope this makes sense! Many thanks Swenglish Ok so I already have a "post" action URL, here it is below. <form method="post" action="http://survey.leisuretrends.com/RemoteSurvey.asp?survey=321&survey_version=1330"> The idea is to put a simple e-mail form on my personal website: And have the post action to go to the URL above (its a marketing company for email submissions / newsletters) Here is what I have so far, but I know something is not right: Quote <form> <input type="text" /> <input type="submit" /> <form method="post" /> <form action="http://survey.leisuretrends.com/RemoteSurvey.asp?survey=321&survey_version=1330"/> </form> Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your patience with me Hi, Today I have taken my first step towards familiarisation with php. I have created a simple form form a tutorial I read. The mail.php file is this: Code: [Select] <?php $firstname = $_POST['firstname']; $lastname = $_POST['lastname']; $email = $_POST['email']; $dropdown = $_POST['dropdown']; $formcontent=" From: $firstname \n Surname: $lastname \n Email: $email \n Dropdown: $dropdown"; $recipient = "fathernugen@googlemail.com"; $subject = "Newsletter Sign Up"; $mailheader = "From: $email \r\n"; mail($recipient, $subject, $formcontent, $mailheader) or die("Error!"); echo "You have been added to our newsletter subscription list!" . " -" . "<a href='newsletter.php' style='margin:0 auto; top: 100px; text-decoration:none;color:#ff0099;'> Return to Sitting Spiritually</a>"; ?> My problem is that users are redirected to a blank page with 'thank you return to sitting spiritually'. I would like to use a custom thank you page with a url like; www.sittingspiritually.co.uk/thankyou.php so the look of the site is not completely ruined by my php inadequacies. Is there a small piece of code i can add to the mail.php file so i can use a custom page for the success??? I hope some one can help, thanks in advance.

I'm entirely new to php and basically know nothing more than i can assume based on other scripting/coding experience. I know there's probably answers to similar questions all over the place, but I've been trying literally hundreds of different pre-built forms guaranteed to work and solutions to others' problems, etc etc and not a single one has operated correctly for me. I can't really do anything with a "you should try this/that approach" answer, nor can I be assumed to know anything about php; I pretty much just need someone to fix whatever the problem is and paste it back to me as this is the only thing keeping me from launching the site. this is what prints when trying to submit with the dropdown on the default value: Quote Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 451 See http://pobox.com/~djb/docs/smtplf.html. in D:\Hosting\5810110\html\contact\contact.php on line 32 There was an err0r processing your request.

I hope you can help me getting through this problem, because I have no idea of what else to try. I'm a web designer and sometimes modify Javascript, but my main focus is HTML and CSS, meaning I have no idea how to code in Javascript, but most importantly, how to write something from scratch in PHP. So I designed a form that works pretty well, and integrated a PHP and Javascript script to make it work. This is the form: Code: [Select] <form name="form" id="form" method="post" action="contact.php"> <p>Hello,</p> <p>My name is <input type="text" name="name">, from <input type="text" name="location">, and I'd like to get in touch with you for the following purpose:</p> <p><textarea name="message" rows="10" ></textarea></p> <p>By the way, my email address is <input type="text" name="email" id="email" placeholder="john@doe.com">, and I can prove I'm not a robot because I know the sky is <input type="text" name="code" placeholder="Red, green or blue?">.</p> <p title="Send this message."><input type="submit" id="submit" value="Take care."></p> </form> And this is the script, in an external file called contact.php: Code: [Select] <?php $name = check_input($_REQUEST['name'], "Please enter your name.") ; $location = check_input($_REQUEST['location']) ; $message = check_input($_REQUEST['message'], "Please write a message.") ; $email = check_input($_REQUEST['email'], "Please enter a valid email address.") ; if (!preg_match("/([\w\-]+\@[\w\-]+\.[\w\-]+)/",$email)) {die("E-mail address not valid");} if (strtolower($_POST['code']) != 'blue') {die('You are definitely a robot.');} $mail_status = mail( "my@email.com", "Hey!", "Hello,\n\n$message\n\nRegards,\n\n$name\n$location", "From: $email $name" ); function check_input($data, $problem='') { $data = trim($data); $data = stripslashes($data); $data = htmlspecialchars($data); if ($problem && strlen($data) == 0) { show_error($problem); } return $data; } function show_error($myError) { ?> <html> <body> <b>Please correct the following error:</b><br /> <?php echo $myError; ?> </body> </html> <?php exit(); } if ($mail_status) { ?> <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"> alert('Thank you for the message. I will try to respond as soon as I can.'); window.location = '/about'; </script> <?php } else { ?> <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"> alert('There was an error. Please try again in a few minutes, or send the message directly to aalejandro@bitsland.com.'); window.location = '/about'; </script> <?php } ?> So what it does is this: if everything's OK, it sends an email with "Hey!" as the subject, "[name]" as the sender, "Hello, [message]. Regards, [name], [location]" as the body, and a popup saying the message was delivered appears. If something fails, it outputs the error in a new address, so the user will have to go back to the form and correct the error. What I actually want to happen is this: if everything's OK, a <p> which was hidden beneath the form appears saying the message was delivered, or, alternatively, make the submit button gray out and confirm the message was delivered. I found a script to make this happen, but with "Please wait...", so the user can't resubmit the form. If there's an error, I'd like another <p> which was hidden to appear with the specific error, so there'd be many <p>'s hidden with different IDs. If possible, I'd also like to change the CSS style of the input field, specifically changing the border color to red, so it'd be a change in class for the particular field. -- So in essence, I want the errors and the success messages to output in the same page as the form (without refresh), and a change of class in the input fields that have an error. Thanks in advance, and please let me know if it'll be possible. Alright so I am trying to code a very simple form that adds a user to my SQL database with certain information filled in and certain information kept hidden with default values in a form. My index.php file is as follows (not all of the code but just the form part): <?PHP $submitMessage = $_GET['value']; if ($submitMessage == success) { echo '<div class="congratulations"><font color="#84d20c"><strong>Congratulations:</strong></font> The user has been added.</div>'; }else if($submitMessage == NULL){ }else if($submitMessage == fail){ echo '<div class="error"><font color="#d3430c"><strong>Error:</strong></font> An error occurred please check the error details below:</div>'; echo 'ERROR DETAILS:'; echo mysql_error(); } ?> <h1><i>Add User</i></h1> <p>This page is where you would manually add a user to the donations databases (for example you or a member of the community with elevated status that does not need to pay).</p> <br/> <form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="scripts/admin_save_sm_db.php" method="post"> <input name="authtype" value="steam"/><br /><br /> <h3><i>STEAM ID:</i></h3> <input name="identity" value="STEAM_0:X:XXXXXXXX"/><br /> <div class="form_help">Steam ID of the player you wish to add. Must be in the format STEAM_0:X:XXXXXXXX</div><br /> <input name="flags" value="o"/><br /><br /> <input name="name" value="Donator"/><br /><br /> <input name="immunity" value="0"/><br /><br /> <h3><i>Your Email Address</i></h3> <input name="user_email"/><br /> <div class="form_help">Your Email Address for security purposes.</div><br /> <input name="Submit" type="submit" value="Submit" class="form_submit" /> </form> My admin_save_sm_db.php file is as follows: <?php session_start(); if(!isset($_SESSION["username"])) { header('Location: login.php'); exit; } @require("../sm_admin_db.php"); $authtype = $_POST['authtype']; $identity = $_POST['identity']; $flags = $_POST['flags']; $name = $_POST['name']; $immunity = $_POST['immunity']; $user_email = $_POST['user_email']; $link = @mysql_connect(_HOST,_USER,_PASS); @mysql_select_db(_DB); $sql = @mysql_db_query(_DB,"INSERT INTO "._TBL." (`authtype`, `identity`, `flags`, `name`, `immunity`, `user_email`) VALUES (NULL, '$authtype', '$identity', '$flags', '$name', '$immunity', '$user_email')"); $okay = @mysql_affected_rows(); if($okay > 0) { header( "Location: ../index.php?value=success" ); } else { header( "Location: ../index.php?value=fail" ); } @mysql_close($link); ?> And finally my sm_admin_db.php file is as follows: <?PHP //host loaction define("_HOST", "localhost", TRUE); //database username define("_USER", "thatsact_admin", TRUE); //database username`s password define("_PASS", "*********", TRUE); //database name define("_DB", "thatsact_sadadmins", TRUE); //database table name change this to install multiple version on same database define("_TBL", "sm_admins", TRUE); //This is the email that you will recieve emails when someone signs up. define("_EMAIL", "admin@tag-clan.com", TRUE); ?> All of this together does not work and gives the echo error code, however the mysql_error() string does not return anything. Nothing is inserted into the database. Can I get some help on where I went wrong and please keep in mind I am VERY new to php and didn't write most of this script so just tell me what to edit and exactly how to do it please. Thanks in advance. Hi I'm trying to set up my first contact form, but I keep getting this error message:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected end of file in /home/remem539/public_html/php/testform.php on line 85
here's my code, what am I doing wrong?
<?php
if ($_POST['parse_var'] == "testform"){ Helo - Total newbie here, so please keep that in mind. I'd really appreciate some wisdom from someone here as to how you would improve this form: <?php $email = $_POST['email']; $message = $_REQUEST['message']; $message = $_POST['date']; $message .= $_POST['location']; $message .= $_POST ['comments']; mail( "testing@gmail.com, 5602346789@metropcs.com", "General Inquiry", $message, "From: $email" ); header( "Location: thankyou.html" ); ?> *******************************html****************************** <HEAD><title>Hi</title<HEAD><BODY BGCOLOR="lightgray"><br><br><center><br><br><form method="post" action="sendmail2.php"><table cellspacing="5" cellpadding="5" border="0"> <tr> <td valign="top"><font face="arial"> <strong>Contact email:</strong><br> </td> <td valign="top"><font face="arial"> <input type="text" name="email" size="50" value="" /> </td> </tr><tr><td valign="top"><font face="arial"> <strong>Date:</strong> </td> <td valign="top"><font face="arial"> <input type="text" name="date" size="50" value="" /> </td> </tr> <tr><td valign="top"><font face="arial"> <strong>location:</strong><br> </td> <td valign="top"> <input type="text" name="location" size="50" value="" /> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"><font face="arial"> <strong>Comments:</strong><br><font color="black"> </td> <td valign="top"> <textarea name="comments" rows="6" cols="40"></textarea> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" align="center"> <input type="submit" value=" Submit Form " /> </td> </tr> </table> </form></center></body> |
