PHP - Values Not Passing To Form?

i am writing this script for use as an include in joomla and the directphp plugin so in my joomla article i have:
Code: [Select]
<?php
include 'test/conducttest.php';
conducttest();
?>
Ok now my issue!
the form in this function is passing only the values for the last item in the loop rather than for the selected radio item when submitted.
so when say for example the radio selected is:
ID TEST TYPE UNIQUE TEST ID AVAILABLE 5    Adolescent Clinical 50021629 1
and the last item in the list is:
ID TEST TYPE UNIQUE TEST ID AVAILABLE 4 Adult Clinical 12341629 1
When the form is submitted even if the 1st item is selected, it returns the value for the second one. I am sorta new to php so any suggestions will be appreciated.
Here is my full code:
Code: [Select]
<?php
function conducttest() {
    //GET JOOMLA USER ID & USERNAME FOR LOGGED USER
    $user =& JFactory::getUser();
    $userID = $user->id;

                WHERE user_id = ".$userID." AND item_available = '1'

I have managed to create an update script that allows a user to submit changes to their details but I need help to finish of the code. I'm using sessions to login in members, here is my update.php code.

After while($member = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {   I would like to retrieve the new values entered by them to be displayed back to the previous form which uses $_SESSION to hold their information when they previously login.

Any suggestions or ideas, as I think it's to do with clearing the session but unfamiliar on how to proceed.



<?php 

include("config.php");

mysql_connect("$dbhost","$dbuser","$dbpass") or die(mysql_error()); 
mysql_select_db("$dbname") or die(mysql_error()); 

$id= mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['member_id']); 
$fname= mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['firstname']); 
$lname= mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['lastname']); 
$address= mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['address']);
$town= mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['address2']); 
$county= mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['county']);
$postcode= mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['postcode']);
$telephone= mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['telephone']);
$mobile= mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['mobile']); 
$username= mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['login']); 
$email=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['email']); 

$id= $_POST['member_id']; 

$sql="UPDATE members SET firstname='$fname', lastname='$lname', address='$address', address2='$town', county='$county', postcode='$postcode', telephone='$telephone', mobile='$mobile', login='$username', email='$email' WHERE member_id='$id' LIMIT 1";

$result=mysql_query($sql) or die ("Error: ". mysql_error(). " with query ". $sql); 

$query = "SELECT * FROM members WHERE member_id = '$id'";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());

while($member = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {


}

Hi guys   I would like to get whole content of html file after I submitted a password. The problem is that the my code doesn't access the value for the file. I tried to create a session but i doesn't work. What other option do I have to get the content of the html file?

session_start();
  	$selected_file = $_POST['radio1'];
  	// get the filename of the file
    $fileinfo = pathinfo($selected_file);
    $filename = $fileinfo['dirname'] . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $fileinfo['filename'];
    $password = 'code';
    $lines = file("$filename.html");
    $_SESSION['selectedfile'] = $selected_file;
    $_SESSION['file'] =  $filename;
    $_SESSION['Scipt'] =  ("$filename.html");
    $_SESSION['Scipttext'] =  $lines;
  	$_SESSION['file2'] = $fileinfo;
	

if (isset($_POST['submitradio']))
{ 
 	 echo '<div class="imageselected">';
	 echo '<img src="'.$_SESSION['selectedfile'].'" /></br>'.PHP_EOL;
	 echo '</div>';
    // check to see if a html file named the same also exists
    if(file_exists($_SESSION['Scipt']))
    {
    	
    	echo "<form action='test_result.php' method='post'>";
    	echo '<div class="Password">';
    	echo 'Type in password to view full Script';
    	
		echo "<label><div class=\"Input\"><input type='password' name='passIT' value='passit'/></div>";
		echo "<input type='submit' name='submitPasswordIT' value='Submit Password'/></div>";
		echo '</div>';
		echo "$filename.html shares the same name as $selected_file";
		

		for($x = 1;$x<=15;$x++) {
		header( "Content-Type: file/html" );
		$lines = ($_SESSION['Scipttext']);
		$new = strip_tags($lines); 
		echo $lines[rand(0, count($lines)-1)]."<br>";
        }
    	// end of forloop
 
		}
  		// end of check
		  // start Sorrytext
		 
    		else
    		{
    		 echo '<div class="NoScript">';
        		echo "Nothing available at the moment.";
        		echo '</div>';
    		}
    		
		 // end Sorrytext
}
// End of submitradio
if($_POST['submitPasswordIT']){
if ($_POST['passIT']== $password ){
echo "You entered correct password";
readfile($_SESSION['Scipt']);
}
else{
echo "You entered wrong password";
}
}
echo '</form>';

I would be grateful for help.
