PHP - Issues With Using A Echo Output As An Hyperlink.

Hello,

I'm creating a pretty simple user registration script. The user fills out 5 forms, submits, and if the data is valid he will be redirected to a verify script. Now I have a bit of an issue, I want to send an verification e-mail to the users e-mail address with a verification code before redirecting him to the verify page. The thing is that I've redirecting him within the header, which doesn't allow me to output the verification email. Is there any easy way around this?

Regards

Here's the code, this is the PHP in my html contacts page (that IS in fact saved with a PHP extension): 
  <div class = "centercontainer">

OK, have no idea what's going on... I've done this a million times... why wont this output!??
I must have a major brain meltdown and dont know it yet!!!

Code: [Select]
<?php

// this echoes just fine:
echo $_POST['testfield'];


// but this wont echo:
echo 
if (isset($_POST['testfield']))
{
$_POST['testfield'] = $test;
}
echo $test;


/// or even this DOESNT echo either!:
$_POST['testfield'] = $test;
echo $test;

?>

Well I have a script that executes a scan on a system set to run infinitely, and I need it to echo out a message each time it loops through, but I don't want it to echo out the message with the next loop message below it, and the next one below that etc... I've tried using the flush(); function and been messing around with that with no luck. For security reasons I don't want to release any of the processing code, but here is the basic construction of the script:

<?PHP
***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***
***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***
***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***
***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***
$RepeatIt = -1;
for($g=1; $g!=$RepeatIt+1; $g++)
{
***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***
***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***
***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***
***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***

$ScanMessage = ":.:.: SCANNING THE HITLIST FOR MOBSTER: ".$MobName." (SCAN #$g) :.:.:"."<br/><br/>";
echo $ScanMessage;

***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***
***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***
***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***
***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***
}
?>

At the moment it's returning:

:.:.: SCANNING THE HITLIST FOR MOBSTER: DEUS EX DESTROYER (SCAN #1) :.:.:

:.:.: SCANNING THE HITLIST FOR MOBSTER: DEUS EX DESTROYER (SCAN #2) :.:.:

:.:.: SCANNING THE HITLIST FOR MOBSTER: DEUS EX DESTROYER (SCAN #3) :.:.:

:.:.: SCANNING THE HITLIST FOR MOBSTER: DEUS EX DESTROYER (SCAN #4) :.:.:

So what I want it to do is just delete the scanning message and replace it with the next scan message so while running this script you would see just the number increment on the same line.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Hi All,

I'm trying to echo the response from an SLA query, the query works and returns the data when I test it on an SQL application.. but when I run it on my webpage it won't echo the result.

Please help?

<?php   
$mysqli = mysqli_connect("removed", "removed", "removed", "removed");  
$sql = "SELECT posts.message FROM posts INNER JOIN threads ON posts.pid=threads.firstpost WHERE threads.firstpost='1'";  
$result = mysqli_query($mysqli, $sql);   
echo {$result['message']}; 
?>

I have a log system that allows 10 logs on each side(Left and right). I am trying to make it so that the left side has the 10 most recent logs, then the right as the next 10. Any ideas?

So I need to echo a row from my database with php, but where i need to echo is already inside an echo. This is my part of my code:


$con = mysql_connect("$host","$username","$password");
if (!$con)
  {
  die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
  }

mysql_select_db("main", $con);

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM Vendor");

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
  {
//I need to echo right here  .................. but I get a blank page when I try this. Please Help.
  echo '<option value=$row['vendor_id']>'; echo $row['vendor_id']; echo '</option>';
  }

mysql_close($con);

Result: A Blank page.
Thanks in advance!

Hi   I try to echo out random lines of a html file and want after submit password to whole content of the same html file. I have two Problems. 1st Problem When I echo out the random lines of the html file I don't get just the text but the code of the html file as well. I don't want that. I just want the text. How to do that?

for($x = 1;$x<=40;$x++) {
		$lines = file("$filename.html");
        echo $lines[rand(0, count($lines)-1)]."<br>";
        }

I tried instead of "file("$filename.html");" "readfile("$filename.html");" But then I get the random lines plus the whole content. Is there anything else I can use instead of file so that I get the random lines of text  without the html code?P.S file_get_contents doesn't work either have tried that one.     2nd Problem:   As you could see in my first problem I have a file called $filename.html. After I submit the value of a password I want the whole content. But it is like the program did forget what $filename.html is. How can I make the program remember what $filename.html is? Or with other words how to get the whole content of the html file?   My code:

if($_POST['submitPasswordIT']){
if ($_POST['passIT']== $password ){
$my_file = file_get_contents("$filename.html");
echo $my_file;
}
else{
echo "You entered wrong password";
}
}

If the password isn't correct I get: You entered wrong password. If the password is correct I get nothing. I probably need to create a path to the file "$filename.html", but I don't know exactly how to do that.   

Hey guys

Just a quick question:

How to embed hyperlink into a database cell?

Basically I echo out a table on the user interface of my site

and there's an URL in one of the cells

I want the user to access it by clicking on it, without copying and pasting the URL into the URL bar of the browser

I tried updating the cell in phpmyadmin using <a href = http://www.example.com>http://www.example.com</a> but didn't work out, the resulting cell only had the text format

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks.

I am having problems with a line of code.  This is what I have so far.  I am missing a "," according to my error message.  Im trading in deep water with this line of code.  I am trying to use the data from my echo state to be a hyperlink...  If that makes sense.

Code: [Select]
echo "\t" . '<td><a href="' . APP_ROOT . 'onlinebanking/viewtransactions.php">. $account['BankAccountID'] . </a>' '</td>' . "\n";

Hello Everyone.

Im new here, but hopefully you can help me

I have designed a CMS using PHP and MySQL. Its fairly basic, I'll talk you thorugh the stages:

1.) The user inputs their product information into a form and the script uploads it to the database giving it a unique ID.
2.) The user is then asked to upload a big image for that product, the image is added to a folder on the server.
3.) Now the user must choose a thumbnail and it uploads in the same manner.

My problem is linking the two together...
So far I have this:


<?php 

$images = "products/"; 
$big    = "big/"; 
$cols   = 2;  

if ($handle = opendir($images)) { 
   while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) { 
       if ($file != "." && $file != ".." && $file != rtrim($big,"/")) { 
           $files[] = $file; 
       } 
   } 
   closedir($handle); 
} 

$colCtr = 0; 

echo '<table width="212" cellpadding="2"><tr>'; 

foreach($files as $file) 
{ 
  if($colCtr %$cols == 0) 
    echo '</tr><tr><td colspan="2"></td></tr><tr>'; 
  echo '<td wdith=50% align="center"><a href="' . $images . $big . $file . '"><img border="0" class="gradualfader" src="' . $images . $file . '" /></a></td>'; 
  $colCtr++; 
} 

echo '</table>' . "\r\n"; 

?>


This displays a lovely list of thumbnails, which when clicked opens the larger image. What i would like to do is insert a "ID" for each image so the product data can be grabbed from the database ?

I think i've explained this well enough? reply if not and illl try and add more detail.

To see it in action you can go to http://design.surreylabs.co.uk/parliament/2/products.php

Thanks in Advance!

I am using xampp.
 

<a href="/">Home Page</a>

This forum has been an awesome resource for me.

Hello im wondering how i can make a hyperlinks adress be a set after a variable.
this is my php:

$result1 = mysql_query("SELECT id, namn, url FROM stuff ORDER BY id desc limit 1;");
$result2 = mysql_query("SELECT id, namn, url FROM stuff ORDER BY id desc limit 1,1;");

<html>
<a href="???"> <p class="note-general"> The first link </p>
<a href="???"> <p class="note-general"> The the second link </p>
</html>

The important thing is that the url from $result1 will link under "the first link" and url from $result2 link under "the second link".
