PHP - Embeding Variables In Email Messages

$email = $fieldnm_3; // use their addy instead of yours
$subject = 'ikwerkthuis.be inloggegevens introductie film'; // change subject
$text = 'Beste  $NameOfSender,

How is it possible, in PHP, to display an error message next to a form input text field if a user is attempting to submit a form with empty fields? Moreover, how is it possible to remove the same error message when the user fills in the input field with the required data and/or refreshes the page?

I have 2 files that I am working with: application.php and process.php.

application.php mainly has the HTML of the form.
process.php has the PHP for processing and validating the form.

I am very new to learning PHP (I started learning it last week) and I have been searching for hours for a clear answer. I have already tried different methods for generating the error message including: using empty(), !isset, $_POST["name"] = "", etc, and have tried using session_start();, $row, echo, print, and other variables to try and display error message on the page, and I have tried using unset();, and = null, to try and remove the error message once the input field has been filled but all to no avail. Either the method I try only half works, or nothing works, and I cannot pinpoint which is the part that is not working.

I only have 2 files to work with, and as an example of what I want to do is:

1. If the first name field is empty when the user clicks submit, an error message should appear next to the input.
2. If the user fills in the input and clicks submit, the form should be processed and added to the database.
3. When the user returns to the application to page to fill in another application form, the error message should not appear.

Is this possible with PHP?

I placed car-dealer-website, a web application from car-dealer-website.org , in a subdirectory on my host mysite.com/car. Wordpress is public_html (mysite.com).

What I am trying to do is embed mysite.com/car in Wordpress. I tried iframe and it is ugly. I looked for a php css options,using a code I found online, it didnt work but I saw hope and think php and css is the solution.

What I am asking for is direction on using php and css to embed in Wordpress. I want to write code no plugins. I hope to learn some php coding. Thank you in advance for your suggestions, tutorials, different methods.

How can this be written in PHP?

Code: [Select]
echo '<IMG alt="" src=".$row['id']/thumb.png">';

I think I finally figured out what my problem is! I have this huge login system that I got and I think it's designed so that in order to login it has a popup window come up. Well I want embed this page so the user can login right their on the page. Before I was using include but that screws up all the submit buttons. Anyone know of a simple code to embed a page?

i wanting users to be able to update there email address and check to see if the new email already exists. if the email is the same as current email ignore the check.
i have no errors showing up but if I enter a email already in the db it still accepts the new email instead of bringing the back the error message.
Code: [Select]
// email enterd from form //
$email=$_POST['email'];


$queryuser=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM members WHERE inv='$ivn' ") or die (mysql_error());
 while($info = mysql_fetch_array( $queryuser )) {
  $check=$info['email'];
 // gets current email //
}


if($check!=$email){
// if check not equal to $email check the new email address already exists//
$queryuser=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM members WHERE email='$email' ");
//$result=mysql_query($sql);
$checkuser=mysql_num_rows($queryuser);
if($checkuser != 0)
{
$error= "0";
header('LOCATION:../pages/myprofile.php?id='.$error.'');


}
}

cheers

I have two messages in my PHP code, and one is displayed depending on whether or not an INSERT succeeds...


// Verify Insert.
if (mysqli_stmt_affected_rows($stmt)==1){
// Insert Succeeded.
echo '<div id="box_Content_700b">';
echo '<h1>Member Account Created</h1>';
echo '<p>Congratulations!</p>
<p>Your account has been created, and a confirmation e-mail sent to: "' . $email . '"</p>
<p>Please click on the link in that e-mail to activate your account.</p>';
echo '</div>';
// Send Email.

}else{
// Insert Failed.
echo '<div id="box_Content_700b">';
echo '<h1>Account Creation Failed</h1>';
echo '<p>You could not be registered due to a system error.</p>';
echo '<p>Please contact the System Administrator.</p>';
echo '</div>';
}// End of VERIFY INSERT.



Questions:
1.) Would it be better if I put those messages in MySQL and just queried the one I needed?

2.) If so, can I put the entire message and markup in the database, so everything is ready to display?

3.) Should I use VARCHAR() or TEXT()?

Thanks,


Debbie

hello  , i have this code:


<?php

function error_table($err){
echo"<p><span class='textborder'>$err</span></p>";
}


?>

in a separate php file and then call it from another php file , like this :


$msg_err='bla bla';
error_table($msg_err);


when i click the button it shows the text with its border(the class has a border ,color and 1px)
but when i have the code inside other if functions it shows it 2 or 3 times...

i am having issues returning all sent messages.  it will only return one for some reason.

Code: [Select]
//If there are sent messages, display them
if ($row = mysql_num_rows($result) > 0) {
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result) or die(mysql_error());

    //Open table and create headers
    echo "<table border=\"1\">\n";
    echo "  <tr>\n";
echo "    <th>Recipient</th>\n";
    echo "    <th>Subject</th>\n";
    echo "  </tr>\n";

while(mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
//Show messages
$userIDTo = $row['userIDTo']; // Get the recipient's ID number
$recipient = checkRecipient($userIDTo); // Get the sender's Username
$messageID = $row['ID'];
        echo "  <tr>\n";
echo "    <td>{$recipient}</td>\n";
        echo "    <td><a href='messageDetails.php?messageID=$messageID' target='_blank'>{$row['subject']}</a></td>\n";
        echo "  <tr>\n";
}
thanks in advance.

I have to get the error messages to appear...but for some reason they're not showing up if I leave the forms blank and click submit.

i am trying to retrieve messages with some code.  It seems to be a bit more complicated that i thought it would be.  so here it goes:

Code: [Select]
$query = "SELECT * FROM memberMail WHERE userIDFrom='92' AND unread='1'"; 
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());
if (mysql_num_rows($result) > 0) {
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result) or die(mysql_error());

$num_rows = mysql_num_rows($result);

echo "You have (" . $num_rows . ") unread message(s).";

$i = 0;
for($i; $i<$num_rows; ++$i) {
if($row[$i[unread]] == "1") {
echo $row[$i[message]] . "<p>";
}
}

}
what i am trying to do, is print out the messages from the records that are unread, and are from a certain user.  i don't think this for statement will pick up the record numbers that got matches though.  and i am not entirely sure about the $row statements in the for statement either.

Hello,
I have a client with a "contact us" form who has recently been receiving a lot of spam emails from the form.  I already have a session set in place so the form is only active one time.  I am now creating a filter for the message to look for things like a url or bb style codes etc.  What I've got seems to be working but would like your thoughts on maybe a better way of doing it or if you see something I may be missing.  IF an offending text is detected the ip address is sent to me and I can block ip from the site.  If the message passes it is sent to the client.  This is the related code.
Code: [Select]
<?php
$themessage=str_replace("\r",'<br>',$_POST['message']);

$badwords=array("[", "url", "http", "link", ".com", ".net", ".org", ".biz", "<");
$o=0;
foreach($badwords as $key2 => $value2){
    $pos = strpos($themessage, $value2); 
if ($pos==0) {
}
else{ 
$o=$o+1;
}
} 
if ($o==0) {
//compose and send email to client
}
else{
$useraddress=$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
//compose and send email to me containing offending address
}
?>

Guys, give me an idea of using a free or open sorce software for transferring messages over a local network between computers using MAC OS and Linux platforms.

Hi,

I am creating a cms using php and my sql for my website. I have managed to create the majority of it but am having trouble added a menu on each page.

It appears on the homepage with the following code:

      <ul id="headlines">

<?php foreach ( $results['articles'] as $article ) { ?>

        <li>
          <h2>
         <a href=".?action=viewArticle&amp;articleId=<?php echo $article->id?>"><?php echo htmlspecialchars( $article->title )?></a>
          </h2>
        </li>

<?php } ?>

      </ul>

Once I click on a selection from the menu it takes me to the correct article but there is no menu now.

If I try to copy and paste the code from homepage into my viewArticle file it gives me the error messages 'undefined index articles on line 6' and 'invalid argument supplied for for each'.

This is the viewArticle code after I pasted in the code from homepage:

      <ul id="headlines">

<?php foreach ( $results['articles'] as $article ) { ?>

        <li>
          <h2>
         <a href=".?action=viewArticle&amp;articleId=<?php echo $article->id?>"><?php echo htmlspecialchars( $article->title )?></a>
          </h2>
        </li>

<?php } ?>

      </ul>

      <h1 style="width: 75%;"><?php echo htmlspecialchars( $results['article']->title )?></h1>
      <div style="width: 75%;"><?php echo $results['article']->content?></div>


I would really appreciate anybody helping me figure out how I can add the menu onto the viewArticle page.

Thanks in advance
