PHP - How Can I Get My Results From An Html Form To Be Outputted On A Separate Php File?

What is the most secure way?

Having DB connect script in the beginning of every script you need db for,

or

Having a database.php script containing the script and then including it to all other php.

$poststart = "<!-- Begin -->"; $poststop = "<!-- End -->";   $parsedpost1 = explode($poststart, $contenu); $parsedpost2 = explode($poststop, $parsedpost1[1]); $contenu = $parsedpost1[0] . $poststart . $newpost . $poststop . $parsedpost2[1];   The above code will set 2 markers and replace whatever inside by $newpost, which is defined elsewhere in the page. But what if $newpost is so long that I'd be more comfortable storing it in a separate file?    How would I go about calling said file on that last line? (I'm referring to the specific syntax.)   Thx

Hi.. been a while since I have touched php and need some help. What I am trying to do is have my links pull text from separate php files, and load them into main table. Here is my old php code..used to work..
I had my index.php with my website template on it. In the table I want my info to appear i put this code.

<?php /* START MAIN AREA HERE */
if($news) include("news.php");
elseif($bio) include("bio.php");
elseif($draw) include("draw.php");
elseif($pic) include("pic.php");
else include("news.php");
/* END HERE */?>

My link looks like this.

<A HREF="?news=x"
            ONMOUSEOVER="changeImages('home', 'images/home-over.gif'); return true;"
            ONMOUSEOUT="changeImages('home', 'images/home.gif'); return true;">
            <IMG NAME="home" SRC="images/home.gif" WIDTH=69 HEIGHT=31 BORDER=0 ALT=""></A>

Any help much appreciated!

I don't have any PHP skills at all. In fact I'm probably looking for a script that can help accomplish what I'm asking about. Regardless, I'm having a hard time getting any answers or solutions to this.

I would like to make a web form that collects cc#'s from my customers that is PCI Compliant in as simple a manner as possible. 99% of the time my clients are not being charged at all, and the cc is used simply to ensure a service is confirmed. If they were to be charged, I would have to do that manually as no payment gateways currently deposit into banks in the country I am in.

One thought I had would be if I could have the cc# either split, or broken up into separate fields and emailed separately. I am told this is PCI Compliant. I would also be fine with the cc# being split between database and email. I know this is possible w/ zen cart, but I have been unable to find any scripts that do this and don't have a need for a shopping cart addition to my site. But, I am aware that zen cart and other shopping cart add ons have options for X's to cover a bunch of numbers in the middle of the string and write that directly to the database.

One thing that is a necessity is that the majority of the data input to the form be emailed. So, I'm basically hoping to protect the cc data in the simplest way possible, which I thought would be to break it up. I'll be trashing the cc #'s once I get them. I have no need to file them.

I do have a SSL on my server.

I am completely open to other suggestions. Is something like this, or another option a possibility?

My skills are rudimentary. I taught myself to write some html and also use Dreamweaver to subsidize for what I can't code myself. I apologize if this should be in one of the other forums.

Hey Everyone,

I'll start by saying that I am a very novice php programmer. But I am working on a file storage website, and I have it working and running properly, what you see here is on a new page called index2.php (Thought you might need to know) and full working version can be found here, http://www.jstpreview.net84.net now want I want the site to do is automatically generate a new .php or .html page once the user presses the "submit" button, I've looked through many tutorials to figure this out but anything I have tried so far didn't work. So anyways, the page generated should be named the name of the file uploaded plus the extension. I also want this page to be generated using a pre-uploaded template but if you look at the code, you will see that I havn't implemented that part yet.

Code: [Select]
<?php 
//Load the settings
require_once("settings.php");


$message = "";
//Has the user uploaded something?
if(isset($_FILES['file']))
{

$target_path = Settings::$uploadFolder;
$target_path = $target_path . time() . '_' . basename( $_FILES['file']['name']); 

//Check the password to verify legal upload
if($_POST['password'] != Settings::$password)
{
$message = "Invalid Password!";
}
else
{
//Try to move the uploaded file into the designated folder
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'], $target_path)) {
    $message = "The file ".  basename( $_FILES['file']['name']). 
    " has been uploaded";
} else{
    $message = "There was an error uploading the file, please try again!";
}
}

//Clear the array
unset($_FILES['file']);
}



if(strlen($message) > 0)
{
$message = '<p class="error">' . $message . '</p>';
}

/** LIST UPLOADED FILES **/
$uploaded_files = "";

//Open directory for reading
$dh = opendir(Settings::$uploadFolder);

//LOOP through the files
while (($file = readdir($dh)) !== false) 
{
if($file != '.' && $file != '..')
{
$filename = Settings::$uploadFolder . $file;
$parts = explode("_", $file);
$size = formatBytes(filesize($filename));
$added = date("m/d/Y", $parts[0]);
$origName = $parts[1];
$filetype = getFileType(substr($file, strlen($file) - 3));
        $uploaded_files .= "<li class=\"$filetype\"><a href=\"$filename\">$origName</a> $size - $added</li>\n";
}
}
closedir($dh);

if(strlen($uploaded_files) == 0)
{
$uploaded_files = "<li><em>No files have been uploaded yet!</em></li>";
}

function getFileType($extension)
{
$images = array('jpg', 'gif', 'png', 'bmp');
$docs  = array('txt', 'rtf', 'doc');
$apps  = array('zip', 'rar', 'exe');

if(in_array($extension, $images)) return "Images";
if(in_array($extension, $docs)) return "Documents";
if(in_array($extension, $apps)) return "Applications";
return "";
}

function formatBytes($bytes, $precision = 2) { 
    $units = array('B', 'KB', 'MB', 'GB', 'TB'); 
   
    $bytes = max($bytes, 0); 
    $pow = floor(($bytes ? log($bytes) : 0) / log(1024)); 
    $pow = min($pow, count($units) - 1); 
   
    $bytes /= pow(1024, $pow); 
   
    return round($bytes, $precision) . ' ' . $units[$pow]; 
}

I would greatly appreciate it if someone can point out and fix the errors in this code, but it would be even more appreciated if someone could provide a working source code of auto-generation of pages on form submit.

Thanks in advanced

Hello, any help would be greatly appreciated. I have two dropdowns with 2 options in each. Customer picks one option from each dropdown and the form gets emailed to addresses from the two selections. The code below gives and error.

My form:
<form method="POST" action="quote.php" onsubmit="return checkform(this)">
<input type="hidden" name="agent" value="recipient_1,recipient_2">
<input type="hidden" name="office" value="recipient_3,recipient_4">
<select name="agent" id="agent">
<option value="recipient_1">Agent1 </option>
<option value="recipient_2">Agent2 </option>
</select>
<select name="office" id="office">
<option value="recipient_3">Location1  </option>
<option value="recipient_4">Location2 </option>
</select>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

quote.php is below:
$recipients = array(

'recipient_1' => 'email_1@yahoo.com',
'recipient_2' => 'email_2@yahoo.com',
'recipient_3' => 'email_3@yahoo.com',
'recipient_4' => 'email_4@yahoo.com',
);
$exploded_recipients = explode(",",$_REQUEST['agent']);
foreach($exploded_recipients as $value)
{
$my_email = $recipients[$value];
$success = mail($my_email, $Subject, $Body, "From: <$EmailFrom>");
}


Thanks in advance

So here is my code:
//form.html
<form action="http://localhost/lab3/index.php" method="post " >
   <input type="text" name="numar" value=""><br>
        <input type="submit" name="submitButton" value="Submit">
</form>


//and in index.php ,which is in the specified folder if I write :
if($_POST['numar']!="")
   $m=$_POST['numar'];

//then I get an error saying Undefined index: numar

I really read a lot about forms and saw examples , but I can't figure out what's wrong. If you have any ideas..

I have an excel file that has several columns with different data and I need to create a form that can upload this excel file and insert the data from the columns into its conrresponding data columns in a mysql database. I know how to create the form but I have no idea how to get the file and tell it to input each cell of data into its corresponding field in the mysql database. Does anyone know how to do this? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

I basically have a PHP Search Form, and when a user fills in a form it outputs the results. Each result displays a image of a property, how could i make them images have their own unique link which will take them directly to the page of the property being shown?

Im using PHP and mySQL tables

Any help is appreciated,

Thank You.

Heres the PHP that outputs the results:

Greetings Fellow PHPFreaks! 

LovableCodeMan here - newbie to this forum an pretty new to this PHP thing that all these youngsters are raving about - who knew?! 

Anyway, so I have an HTML form set up with a PHP document attached in order to send the data from the form to an email -a pretty basic setup by todays standards. 

In the PHP document, you can see that there is a section for the user (sender@xyz.com) to submit the information in the form to us & is sent to our email address "receiver@xyz.com". The bottom segment is to send a confirmation email back to the sender - to "sender@xyz.com" - as a thank you and a "We will get back to you ASAP" etc etc etc. 

The confirmation email sent to the sender@xyz.com works flawlessly when pressing the "Send Your Message" button, but then I just see "https://www.xyz.com/scripts/mail.php" in the address bar and no email is received by receiver@xyz.com - aka "Us".

This is the PHP document - confidential information redacted & the "sender@xyz.com" & "receiver@xyz.com" replace the real email addresses.

<!doctype html>
<?php
    
    $title = $_POST['title'];
	$first = $_POST['first'];
	$surname = $_POST['surname'];
	$email = $_POST['email']; <!------- sender@xyz.com--->
	$internationalCode = $_POST['internationalCode'];
    $number = $_POST['number'];
    $userMessage = $_POST['userMessage'];
	$company = $_POST['company'];
	$Industrytype = $_POST['Industrytype'];
	$inc_status = $_POST['inc_status'];
	$state = ['state'];
    
	$email_from = "$first $surname <smtp server login>";

    $Password = 'smtp server password';

    $email_subject = "Website Enquiry from $first $surname";

	$messageTo = "receiver@xyz.com";

    $email_body = 
    "User title: $title. \n".
    "The department this message is for is: $department.\n".
    "User First Name: $first.\n".
    "User Surname Name: $surname. \n".
    "User email: $email.\n".
	"International Dialing Code: $internationalCode. \n".
    "User Contact Number: $number.\n".
	"State of Incorporation: $state.\n".
	"File: $attachment.\n".
	"Company Name: $company, $inc_status.\n".
	"Industry type: $Industrytype.\n".
    "User Message is: $userMessage.\n";

    $headers = "From: $email_from" . "\r\n" . "Reply to: $first $surname". "\r\n";

    mail($messageTo, $email_subject, $email_body, $headers, "-fweb_support@xyz.com");

    header('Location: https://www.xyz.com/thank_you.html');


<!--------Confirmation email send to sender@xyz.com below---------------->


	$respond_subject = "Thank you for your message";

		/* Prepare autoresponder message */
		$respond_message = "
Hi $first,

Thank you for messaging to us. We will aim to reply to you within 24 hours.

In the meantime, why not follow our other stories via, as well as following, our Facebook page. Simply go to https://www.facebook.com/xyz/

		$headers = 'From: <Sender> <no-reply@xyz.com>' . "\r\n" .

Anyone know where I'm going wrong, it "half works" so I'm Half Way There - & yes, I am Livin' on a Prayer! 

Thanks in advance! 

The LovableCodeman

Hi.  So I've coded many a file upload form and never had any trouble.  Until now.  For some reason when I try to upload MP3 files, I'll hit submit and the page just reloads.  Once it does so, the file upload field is once again blank.  What's odd is that images and documents upload just fine.  It's only audio tracks that cause the page to reload and clear.  My php.ini max file upload size is at this point set to 100M, and the files I'm trying to upload are under 10M.  Any ideas?  Here's the form code, just to post it-- pretty basic.  I'm at a loss here....  Any ideas would be appreciated.  Thanks very much.

   <input type = "file" name = "audio" />
   
   <p><input type ="submit" name="submit" value="do it."/><p>

</form>

Hi,

I would like to write all files from specific folder into .txt file. The output working just fine, but I'm getting only one file saved into my txt file. Any idea? Thanks!

$fileList = glob('C:\users\John\Documents\*pdf');
foreach($fileList as $filename){
if(is_file($filename)){

echo $filename, '<br>'; 

$save_files = fopen("list.txt", "w");
fwrite($save_files,$filename);
fclose($save_files);

}   
}  

 

Ok, here's my code: How do i make it so that it outputs a maximum of only 5 results from the query where the img file exists. When I add LIMIT to the sql query it doesnt work so I guess its something else, but I have no clue. Can anyone help?


$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table WHERE date >= '$now' ORDER BY max(date) desc");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query)) {
$cid = $row['cat_id'];
$title = $row['name'];
$seoname = $row['seourl'];

$img = 'images/'.$seoname.'.jpg';
if (!file_exists($img)) {
$img = '';
} else {
$img = 'images/'.$seoname.'.jpg';
}

if (!empty($img)) {
echo '<a href="images/'.$seoname.'/"><img src="'.$img .'" style="width:528px;" alt="" /></a>' . "\n";
}
}


Thanks.
