PHP - Get Incoming Post Data

Hi guys, I think I may be losing my marbles over this form I've put together. I'm trying to get my code to post the following to a database but my MySQL and PHP isn't that good, so wondering if any one could possibly suggest what I could do?

Here is my code:

Code: [Select]
<?php

// we check if everything is filled in

if(empty($_POST['fname']) || empty($_POST['lname']) || empty($_POST['email']))
{
die(msg(0,"All the fields are required"));
}


// is the sex selected?

if(!(int)$_POST['sex-select'])
{
die(msg(0,"You have to select your sex"));
}


// is the birthday selected?

if(!(int)$_POST['day'] || !(int)$_POST['month'] || !(int)$_POST['year'])
{
die(msg(0,"You have to fill in your birthday"));
}


// is the email valid?

if(!(preg_match("/^[\.A-z0-9_\-\+]+[@][A-z0-9_\-]+([.][A-z0-9_\-]+)+[A-z]{1,4}$/", $_POST['email'])))
die(msg(0,"You haven't provided a valid email"));



// I think here is where I need to put something to get the data into a table!




echo msg(1,"registered.html");


function msg($status,$txt)
{
return '{"status":'.$status.',"txt":"'.$txt.'"}';
}
?>
How do I get the $_POST['day'] and $_POST['month'], $_POST['year'] etc into a table? It should be so easy but my head is hurting from trying lots of things and tutorials online.

Any thoughts my PHP Freaks?

im trying to understand this Post Data script it's not posting, no errors:

postdata.php
Code: [Select]
<?php
 
//create array of data to be posted
//$post_data['firstName'] = 'Name';
$post_data['item_name'] = '12345';
 
//traverse array and prepare data for posting (key1=value1)
foreach ( $post_data as $key => $value) {
    $post_items[] = $key . '=' . $value;
}
 
//create the final string to be posted using implode()
$post_string = implode ('&', $post_items);
 
//we also need to add a question mark at the beginning of the string
$post_string = '?' . $post_string;
 
//we are going to need the length of the data string
$data_length = strlen($post_string);
 
//let's open the connection
$connection = fsockopen('www.example.com', 80);
 
//sending the data
fputs($connection, "POST  /i.php  HTTP/1.1\r\n");
fputs($connection, "Host:  www.example.com \r\n");

fputs($connection, "Content-Length: $data_length\r\n");
fputs($connection, "Connection: close\r\n\r\n");
fputs($connection, $post_string);
 
//closing the connection
fclose($connection);

?>

reuslt should be posted here

Code: [Select]

//var_dump($query);
echo $query;

Hi
I have a little strange problem.

I cannot get the post data from my form. It works fine if there is 10 or 15 user but reaching 40 or more than form values not posting.

This is output of size:
echo (int) $_SERVER['CONTENT_LENGTH'];  ===== 22164

Code: [Select]
if(isset($_POST['hiddenField']))
{
    // do some work;
}

$sql = mysql_query("SELECT id, name FROM user WHERE shop_id = '" .$_SESSION['id']. "' ORDER BY name ASC");
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql))
{
echo '
<div style="width:100%; border:solid 1px #CCC; background-color:#f1e7e7; margin-bottom:5px;">
<table class="tableSmall">
<tr><th width="81">' .$row['name']. '</th><th width="71">';
echo $grl_pic .'
</th>
<td width="622"><table width="100%">
<tr>';
for($j=0; $j<7; $j++)
{
$sql2  = mysql_query("SELECT user_master_id, user_start, user_end FROM work_master WHERE user_master_id = '" .$row['id']. "' AND date = '" .$days_no_kanji[$j]. "'");
$row2 = mysql_fetch_array($sql2);
if(mysql_num_rows($sql2) == 0)
{
$start = "00:00";
$end   = "00:00";
$m    = 0;
}
else
{
$start = $row2['user_start'];
$end   = $row2['user_end'];
$m    = 1;
}
echo '
<th><input type="hidden" name="userData[]" value="' .$row['id']. '_' .$j .'_' .$m. '" />
<select name="' .$row['id']. '_' .$j .'_' .$m. '_start">' .ShopHour($start). '</select><br />～<br />
<select name="' .$row['id']. '_' .$j .'_' .$m. '_end">' .ShopHour($end). '</select>
</th>';
}
echo '
</tr>
</table></td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>';
}
Is there someone has any idea why php is not posting?

So basically I'm using PHP to solve a math problem for me. The user puts in a few parameters and the program runs those numbers through the algorithm and spits out a bunch of xy coordinates. I'm using the PHP SELF method to retrieve the user input. This all works fine, but it's afterwords that I run into problems. I create a drop down menu of all the x values and I want the user to be able to choose any x value they wish and to have the corresponding y value be displayed. The problem is that I have to use another POST command for this and when I do, it wipes out all the computed data.  Of course the y-value is never displayed, and there lies the problem.

I'm sure there are many ways to get around this, but I could not find one out myself. Anyone have any ideas?

i am trying to fit this php code to so when ever i upload a video link to the database it prints in the divs from left to right. ( i have made blank boxes for where the videos should be, so you guys can see what i mean. i will give you the code here.

Code: [Select]
<?php
$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `G4V_Videos` ORDER BY `id` DESC") or die(mysql_error());

while ($data = mysql_fetch_array($query)) { 
?>
ID-nummer: <?php print $data['id']; ?> - Name: <?php print $data['navn']; ?> -
<a href="/Video.php?id=<?php print $data['id']; ?>"><img src="http://i.ytimg.com/vi/<?php print $data['link'];?>/hqdefault.jpg" width="200" height="160" /></a><br />
<a href="/Video.php?=<?php print $data['id']; ?>">
<?php
}
?>

and the website is here, http://www.game4vids.com/index.php

and i also want it so once i have used up all the boxes it posts the new video in box one and overwrites the old one if you get what i mean.

This website is a great example of what i mean.

Hi All,

Not sure if this is a silly question so here we go.

I have some divs that have data attributes (data-value).  When i submit and post the form, can i use these values as part of the submission and put their data-value into the db?

Thanks as always in advance.

Hi guys, I am creating a quiz system for my personal site, I am done with all the quiz questions creating part, but I am stuck with something like... user taking a random sql generated quiz and submitting it..

Here's randomly generated sql quiz, even the answers are in random order:

<form method="post">
<b>1. What is color or sky</b>
<ol>
<li><input name="question_3_answer" type="radio" value="6" /> sky</li>
<li><input name="question_3_answer" type="radio" value="8" />blue</li>  <-- true
<li><input name="question_3_answer" type="radio" value="3" />red</li>
</ol>

<b>2. What is name of my cat</b>
<ol>
<li><input name="question_6_answer" type="radio" value="9" />brat</li>  <--true
<li><input name="question_6_answer" type="radio" value="7" />rat</li>
</ol>

<b>3. What is name of my pet</b>
<ol>
<li><input name="question_18_answer" type="radio" value="9" />cat</li>  <--true
<li><input name="question_18_answer" type="radio" value="7" />dog</li>
</ol>
</form>

Now this is tricky part for me is.. receiving these data in another page.. since it's randomly generated questions, how do I know which question it is?
here's example I've tried :


$list_all_quiz_questions = $db->get_row("SELECT question_id, its_true_ans_id FROM question_table WHERE quiz_group = 'ef23fsdfers3e' ");

$i = 1;
foreach ($list_all_quiz_questions as $myquestion)
     {
$answer.$i == $_POST["question_".$myquestion->question_id."_answer"]; //?????????? not working lol ;((
    $i++
 }

I'm doing an ajax call from javascript using jquery library:

Code: [Select]

    ajaxCall: function(process, obj, type){     
        $.post("registration-post.php", type + "=" + process,
            function(data){
                if(data==""){
                    $(obj).css(registration.errorNotificationType, registration.validatedColour);
                }else{
                    $('.error').append($.trim(data) + "<br />");
                    $(obj).css(registration.errorNotificationType, registration.errorColour);
                    registration.progress = false;   
                }
            }
        );
    }


When the ajax calls the php page, I want the php page to know what post information the javascript has sent, rather than pre-defining what the PHP should be trying to retrive from the POST data.

Something like


          // pseudo

          $_POST["whateverwassentfromajax"]



I want to do this because I want to have one function doing everything. So in my javascript I am saying, check if the username and email have already been used...
But i dont want to call two different php functions.



//pseudo

function 1(){
      $_POST["username"];
}
function 2(){
      $_POST["email"];
}



Is there a special way to know which post data has been sent.
Or do i need to do a few if statements in php.

Hello,
I need to post plenty of data to a file with a java file with a .do extension using a php program.
How do I get to auto-post mass data in php from a database straight to this java file?
Put in mind that each mysql record is posted as its own form as in: <form ...>mysql record</form>

Thanks in advance

I'm trying to send a HTTPS POST request with XML data to a server using PHP.

Anything sends to the server requires authentication therefore I'll use cURL.

Some background info.: the XML data is to request the server to upload a file from a specific URL to its local storage.

One rule of using this API is I MUST set the content type for each request to application/xml.

This is what I've done but isn't working...

<?php
$fields = array(
'data'=>'<n1:asset xmlns:n1="http://.....com/"><title>AAAA</title><fileName>http://192.168.11.30:8080/xxx.html</fileName><description>AAAA_desc</description><fileType>HTML</fileType></n1:asset>'
);
$fields_string = "";
foreach($fields as $key=>$value) {
$fields_string .= $key.'='.$value.'&';
}
rtrim($fields_string,'&');

$url = "https://192.168.11.41:8443/";

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, count($fields));
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $fields_string);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, false);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "admin:12345678");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-type: application/xml', 'Content-length: '. strlen($fields_string)) );

$result = curl_exec( $ch );

curl_close($ch); 

echo $result;
?>

I am expected to get an XML reply of either upload successful or upload failed. But instead I am getting this error message.

HTTP/1.1 415 Unsupported Media Type Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1 Content-Type: text/xml;charset=UTF-8 Content-Length: 0 Date: Thu, 02 Dec 2010 03:02:33 GMT

I'm sure the file type is correct, the XML format is correct. I've tried urlencode the fields but it didn't work. What else I might have done wrong?

Hi there,

I am wanting to insert post data into my DB, this is guest information

if i do a 

 $safePost = filter_input_array(INPUT_POST);
        print_r($safePost);

i get the following output.

Array

(

[action] => addGuestInfo

[guestno] => 2

[bookingid] => 151

[customerid] => 22

[Guestname-0] => Jamie

[Guestname-1] => Joe

[GuestAge-0] => 4-3

[GuestInfo-0] => celiac

[GuestAge-1] => 18

[GuestInfo-1] => wheat

)

normally the guestname-0, guestage-0, guestinfo-0 would be in correct order but we have to ensure the just incase it isns't (see output above) we cater for that aswell, we can have upto 6 guest details coming in at once.

so I need to loop through the data and insert into my DB. I have tried various for / foreach loops but cant seem to get it to group the data together

I have tried things like below, but it inserts each record multiple times.

$safePost = filter_input_array(INPUT_POST);
foreach($safePost as $key => $value){                 
            $exp_key = explode('-', $key);
          // for ($i =0; $i <= $guestcount; $i++) {
      switch ($exp_key[0]) {
        case 'Guestname':
            $booking->guestno = $exp_key[1];
            $booking->guestname = $val;
        break;
        case 'GuestAge':
            $booking->guestno = $exp_key[1];
            $booking->guestage = $val;

        break;
        case 'GuestInfo':
            $booking->guestno = $exp_key[1];
            $booking->guestinfo = $val;

        break;
        default:
        break;
  }
 //CALLS FUNCTION TO INSERT TO DB result = lastInsertId();
  $result= $booking->insertGuestDetails();
//}
}

 

Hello all,

I have this issue: I have a form with several fields. I need to save to a session variable (in submit page) all of the fields upon submit and then post some of the fields to a https site using a POST request (i.e., doing a header('Location: https://mynewdomain.com/page.cfm?'.$data) won't cut it).

Now, I can do it with javascript... a whole bunch of hidden fields in the between page and then auto submit the form to the mynewdomain.com domain using the post method.

I am wondering whether there would be a better way for that. I know that Curl does it, with one glitch. When I set the parameter CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION to true it redirects the user BUT it doesn't load any css or javascript from the new page. People say on the web to do a request for each file but I haven't figured out how to do it.

Can anyone post an elegant/concrete solution to this problem or should I resort to Javascript?

Thanks
menwn

Hi-
I have to post to a URL, grab one field our of the JSON output/response and format nicely to the user. I've tried a few things with some help but none seem to be working. So any help or direction would be greatly appreciate it!!

Attempt 1 (works but not formatted nicely)
if I post using the browser, it works. the data is sent to the URL (web service) and I can see in the web service logs that the entry has been recorded. the problem is that since i have the URL in "action", i'm taken to that page and the user gets to see the JSON output

Code: [Select]
//here's the HTML form in offer.php
<form action="http://somewebservice.com/<?php echo $PrizeID;?>" method="post" name="myform">
<input name="account" id="account" type="hidden" value="<?php echo $account;?>"/>
<input name="dob" id="dob" type="hidden"  value="<?php echo $dob;?>"/>
<input name="site" id="site" type="hidden"  value="<?php echo $site;?>"/>
<input id="submit" type="submit" value="submit"/>
</form>

//here's the output (JSON) after clicking submit
{"Prize":"XXXXXX","ConfirmationCode":"######","Error":false,"ErrorMsg":null}


Attempt 2 (doens't work)
i tried using php but after submit, the page refreshes and no entry is recorded in the web service log

Code: [Select]
//here's the HTML form in offer.php
<form name="myform">
<input name="account" id="account" type="hidden" value="<?php echo $account;?>"/>
<input name="dob" id="dob" type="hidden"  value="<?php echo $dob;?>"/>
<input name="site" id="site" type="hidden"  value="<?php echo $site;?>"/>
<input id="submit" type="submit" value="submit"/>

//here's the php in offer.php
<?php 
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
$options = array(
            'http'=>array(
                'method'=>"POST",
                'content'=>http_build_query(array(
                        'account' => $account,
                        'dob' =>   $dob,
                        'site' => $site
                    ))
            ));

        $context = stream_context_create($options);
        $result =  file_get_contents("http://somewebservice.com/{$PrizeID}",NULL,$context);
        var_dump($result);
}
?>

Last attempt (doesn't work)
i tried using php & curl so that i can process in the back and show only the ConfirmationCode to the user in a nice format but it doesn't work. after submit, i'm taken to process.php where i see nothing and no entry is recorded in the web service log

Code: [Select]
//here's the HTML form in offer.php
<form action="process.php" method="post" name="myform">
<input name="account" id="account" type="hidden" value="<?php echo $account;?>"/>
<input name="dob" id="dob" type="hidden"  value="<?php echo $dob;?>"/>
<input name="site" id="site" type="hidden"  value="<?php echo $site;?>"/>
<input id="submit" type="submit" value="submit"/>
</form>

//here's the PHP in process.php
<?php 
$postvars=file_get_contents("php://input");
$curl=curl_init("http://somewebservice.com/{$PrizeID}");
curl_setopt($curl,CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,$postvars);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); 
$result=curl_exec($curl);
$decodedresult=json_decode($result,true);
?>


i haven't gotten to the point where i grab the ConfirmationCode I want because i want to get this fixed first and also because i can't get that to work but will focus on that once i fix this.
Thanks.

I've looked at various cURL tutorials and the PHP manual, but I don't see what I'm doing wrong here. My goal is to be able to send data to test.php and then have that page run a MySQL query to insert the TITLE and MESSAGE into the database. Any comments? :/

II am new to jscript and AJAX and have a problem that I need to solve.   I have a form on which I need to input the RGB values of a color that will be used in the next PHP file.   I have choosen a color chooser written in jscript called JS-Color.   There are a number of pre-written scripts for choosing the color, of which I have used the following:

<script type="text/javascript" src="jscolor/jscolor.js"></script>

R<input id="red" size="5">  G<input id="grn" size="5">  B<input id="blu" size="5">  - - -
H<input id="hue" size="5">  S<input id="sat" size="5">  V<input id="val" size="5">

<p> Choose any color: <input class="color" id="myColor" onchange="
	document.getElementById('red').value = this.color.rgb[0]*100 + '%';
	document.getElementById('grn').value = this.color.rgb[1]*100 + '%';
	document.getElementById('blu').value = this.color.rgb[2]*100 + '%';
	document.getElementById('hue').value = this.color.hsv[0]* 60 + '&deg;';
	document.getElementById('sat').value = this.color.hsv[1]*100 + '%';
	document.getElementById('val').value = this.color.hsv[2]*100 + '%';">

I am trying to work out how to use this to get the 3 values that I can post in a form. Looking at the internet, I have found that AJAX is the easiest way to POST from jscript. I have attempted to write some script, but I'm sure I'm way off the mark. Here is my attempt:

Which is the variable that I can use? Is it this.color.rgb[0]*255; for example? I have created a variable $red etc, but it does not even open the test_input.php file.   None of the examples I have seen on the internet relate to the task I am trying to figure out.   Can anyone advise me?
