PHP - Php Script Randomly Restarts Itself With Blank Post Data

Hi guys! New to the community and hope to learn a lot here!

Here is some background info and what I want to do, and what I know.

I have been building websites for years, and I am familiar with Actionscript 3.0. And I have successful ran a few wordpress websites. What I am trying to do right now however is modify this form script I found, to only email the data when the field isn't left blank. It's stumping me because the actual "message" that ends up being the body of the email is a variable. And form what I can tell I can't figure out how to put if statements into it. If anyone can take a look at this script and give me any pointers you would be awesome.

Code: [Select]
                    <?php
//trying to store the date in a separate variable only when it's not blank
if ($_POST['starttime'] == '') {

hi all i am having a big problem that i have been trying to find out what is going on for weeks. i have a echo script that echos data that is in my database, and if i have to refresh the page it will add blank data in my database and the top echo info is blank as well. how can i fix this, and i was wanting to know how do i echo out my info in a textarea. i added a jepg to show you what i mean.

here is my code

echoforms.php

<?php

error_reporting(0);


require_once('demo.php');
/*Open the connection to our database use the info from the config file.*/
$link = mysql_connect(DB_HOST, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD);

$sql = "SELECT company_name, contact_name, address, street_number, postcode, contact_number, contact_email, budget, description FROM 3dartactforms";

$results = mysql_query($sql);
      
if (!$results) {
   die('Invalid query: ' . mysql_error());
}



while($result = mysql_fetch_array( $results )){
   echo '<div style="border: 1px solid #e4e4e4; padding: 15px; margin-bottom: 10px;">';
   echo date("d/m/y");
   echo '<p>Company Name: ' . $_POST['company_name'] . '</p>';

Hi guy's,

I'm having problems adjusting a script to add a level (user rights) function. When i login with a admin or normal user it gives a blank page (not redirecting to home.php). It even does'nt return an echo that user / pass is incorrect. I'm breaking my head over this for day's now. Can you help me out?

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?

Is there someone has any idea why php is not posting?

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

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.

Hello     I have a nusoap web service running, which is fine, but I need to send a new variable in the parameters which decides what database to use...   This is how I call the function:

 
    $params = array(
 
'region' => '1' 
 
);
 
 
$response1 = $client->call('function1', array ($params)); // response will be in JSON
 

 

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.

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 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)
     {
