PHP - Form Submission Missing Data

Hey guys,

I have a script that grabs data from a separate .txt file which is used to perform certain actions within a user's account. The data I'm having trouble with is user key which is used to authenticate an http header. An example of what the txt file would hold is this:

360235276 PbI1c5+PGHSshccYd58AklmTgf5u+tbWZplMRYYxFSivRYw4AZhaVNHwADozYZhZhPnXRSV1rmsrhf1td7w6bJbySZmPHLl+hleyz/Ht4iM=
477947328 cXTnFEVP74RWtAgqM5BlwtgW2i9rP/v44oANzwF+yJZ+9mpvaschyo/HaYP1qUXgIK8nK7jy74iSCEHAgpPgPdryzpReM5cbnVDjRw7h9S0=

The format I have is: account_ID user_key
New account on a fresh line. So in my script I have it grabbing the data as so:


$User_DataFile = "accountdata.txt";

$AccData = file($User_DataFile, FILE_SKIP_EMPTY_LINES);


foreach($AccData as $line_num => $line)
{
$AccData = explode(" ", htmlspecialchars(str_replace("    "," ",$line)));

if(stristr($AccData[1], "\n")) $AccData[1] = substr($AccData[1], 0, strlen($AccData[1])-2);

$AccountID = $AccData[0];
$UserKey = $AccData[1];
echo "Account ID: ".$AccountID."<br/>User Key: ".$UserKey."<br/><br/>";


I have it set to simply echo out the data for debugging which is where I noticed that any slashes or plus or equal signs were not included.
When run in Apache it returns this:

Account ID: 360235276
User Key: PbI1c5+PGHSshccYd58AklmTgf5u+tbWZplMRYYxFSivRYw4AZhaVNHwADozYZhZhPnXRSV1rmsrhf1td7w6bJbySZmPHLl+hleyz/Ht4iM

Account ID: 477947328
User Key: cXTnFEVP74RWtAgqM5BlwtgW2i9rP/v44oANzwF+yJZ+9mpvaschyo/HaYP1qUXgIK8nK7jy74iSCEHAgpPgPdryzpReM5cbnVDjRw7h9S0

Account ID: 503724987
User Key: XXEJsklZTFaTx8MLjuNIz0S65Sn02rgbHl2sahdReQdadKP39 evIXUoYdr5NyQMWDVE7cRpvn+zJ7mteH7WJzVh0U/sOcSG7kfcuaWpAOfo

So as you can see by comparison there is no slashes or plus or equal signs present, which is going to be a major problem. Is there any way of getting around this problem?

Thanks.

I'm trying to figure out where my problem is. Its not submitting my form. I'm getting the alert but when it submits it does the url?variables=whatever deal.

Hi All,

I am trying to submit multiple form fields, whereby I am asking users to supply specific files. I can get it to upload a single file correctly, however when I increase this to 2 or 3, it's using the same file for all of them. I have used print_r($_FILES) to check everything with the files seems to be OK, and it all looks OK. I need to be able to pair the files, so that's why I haven't used the multiple option.

I have tried changing the variables so they are completely different, but I am at a total loss right now.
 

## First Document
if(!empty($_FILES["dc1"])){ 
	$fileName1 = htmlspecialchars_decode((basename($_FILES["dc1"]["name"]))); 
	$fileTypeA1 = pathinfo($fileName1, PATHINFO_EXTENSION); 
    $targetFilePath1 = $uploadDir . $uID . '-' . $randnum . '.' .$fileTypeA1; 
 	
	if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES["dc1"]["tmp_name"], $targetFilePath1)){ 
		$uploadedFile1 = $targetFilePath1; 
		}
	} 

## Second Document
if(!empty($_FILES["dc2"])){ 
	$fileName2 = htmlspecialchars_decode((basename($_FILES["dc2"]["name"]))); 
	$fileTypeA2 = pathinfo($fileName2, PATHINFO_EXTENSION); 
    $targetFilePath2 = $uploadDir . $uID . '-' . $randnum . '.' .$fileTypeA2; 
    
	if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES["dc2"]["tmp_name"], $targetFilePath2)){ 
    	$uploadedFile2 = $targetFilePath2; 
     }
	}

Clean code up

Where should my Form go once it is submitted?

I am reading through some old code, and I was using some pretty convoluted programming to get everything (e.g. error and success messages after form submittal) to work.

Basically what I would do was...
Code: [Select]
HTML to Open Page
PHP to Handle Form
If Data Okay...
Success Message (e.g. "Your account was created!")
HTML to close out Page
If Data Invalid...
Failure Message (e.g. "A System Error occurred.  Please contact the Administrator.")
HTML to close out Page
HTML Form
HTML to Close Page
I have heard that you should always put your PHP first in the script and then follow it up with your HTML Page and Form.

But where should you go once the form is submitted?


My second attempt at things - to fix the mess above - was to REDIRECT the user to a "Handling Page" which basically was a large case statement that would read a "processing code" and display the right message.

But that seems kind of hokey too?!   

Can someone help me come up with a more professional and scalable solution??

Thanks,


Debbie

I am trying to process a simple registration form:-

Code: [Select]
<form method="POST" action="regproc.php">

<p>Choose a username:<br /><input name="nick" type="text" /></p>

<p>Choose a password:<br /><input name="pwd" type="password" /></p>

<p>Re-type password:<br /><input name="pwd2" type="password" /></p>

<p>Sex:<br /><input name="sex" type="text" /></p>

<p>Email address:<br /><input name="email" type="text" /></p>

<p><input name="submit" type="button" value="Hit me NOW!" /></p>

</form>
but it does not call the relevant processing file "regproc.php" when the submit button is hit. I can't figure out just why this is and would appreciate any ideas. I know that the solution is probably very simple and staring me in the face if only I could see it...

HI All -
Hoping you can help me out here with an issue that's preventing me from posting a form.  I am still stumbling my way through this. 

I have a form that submits to itself with php code that uses a $curlhandle to post to a remote server, return xml data and parse it. The submission to the remote server works perfectly and the data returned is fine.

The problem I am having is that when the form page initially loads in the browser, it thinks the form is already trying to submit, and it returns an error message for the first blank field.  The error message is from the remote site. There is no database involved with this and the information does not need to be saved, just displayed on the same page the form resides on.

So, is there a way I can load the page with the form without getting the error message from the remote site?

Hi all,

I am wondering if nayone can spot why more form is not processing, basically the page just loads afresh once details have been entered and submit button clicked

The page is called client.php
<?php
session_start();

if (isset($_POST['submit']))
{
include('config.php');
$username = $_POST['username'];
$password = md5($_POST['password']);
$query = mysql_query("SELECT email,password FROM customers WHERE email='$username' AND password = '$password'");
$count=mysql_num_rows($query);


if($count==1)
{
$query1= mysql_query("SELECT id FROM customers WHERE email='$username'");
echo mysql_error() ;
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query1))
   {
$id = $row['id'];
$_SESSION['id'] = $id;
$_SESSION['logged'] = "SET";

Hi guys, I got this form so a user can submit a care guide for different species of animal. However the script runs, but the query to SET the species information does not run and the success message is not displayed.  Here is what I have got

This is pretty much the same as my changepassword.php page but the query is different and this seems to have prevented the script from running correctly.     I have tried different variations on INSERT to add the data to the database but nothing is working,   Also an online PHP checker says there is no error in the code.   Please help!    

Okay, so I have a neat little website and I'm having some issue with some quality-of-life improvements.   Namely, the user clicks a button which starts a server-side operation that can take up to 20 to 30 seconds.   I want a little message to appear below the button that says, "Operation started. This may take upwards of 20 to 30 seconds depending on traffic."   As of now, I have the typical 

<form action="post" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];?>">
    ...
    <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Make PDF" />
</form>
<?php   
    if (isset($_POST["submit"]))
    {
        ...
    }
?>

The only problem is, part of my PHP code must communicate with a Java server that I have running on the server itself.   So how the site works is, there's the computer I'm renting out and it's running Apache and a custom Java server I wrote myself. Apache handles the web request and upon form submission, PHP opens a socket with the Java server and begins the task. PHP then waits for the connection to close.  

Hello Everybody   Im new to this forum. Im trying to submit a form to my database but it's not passing through. when I submit the form an error message.

Edited by Ch0cu3r, 06 June 2014 - 07:32 AM.

I'm not sure if this is exactly a coding help question, excuse me if its not.

I want to know what is the best & secure way to submit a form to itself.
I've tried to google the answer, but did not get a proper answer with explanation or may be I didnt use proper keywords to search it.

Out of these which one do i use?

Code: [Select]
// Leave the action field empty.

<form method="POST" action="">

//$PHP_SELF, also if i use echo $PHP_SELF my form does not work like it should.

<form method="POST" action="<?$PHP_SELF?>">

//$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'], same problem as $PHP_SELF, it doesnt work if i use echo.
<form method="POST" action="<?$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>">

ok, so how can I grab $value before the form submits and I want to put it into the image field:

Code: [Select]
<?php 
include_once "secure/connect_to_mysql.php";

function genRandomString($length = 20) {
     $characters = '0123456789';
     $string ='';    


    for ($p = 0; $p < $length; $p++) {
         $string .= $characters[mt_rand(0, strlen($characters))];
     }

    return $string;

}
if ($_POST['submit']) {
$name = $_POST['name'];
$id = $_POST['id'];
$image = $_POST['image'];
$event = $_POST['event'];
$template  = 'Templates/index.php';
$picture = '$name.png';
$id =  genRandomString(); //this could be the uploaded picture

//we need just the filename - no extension
$picture_name = pathinfo($picture, PATHINFO_FILENAME);
 $sql = "INSERT INTO pictures (name, id, image,  event) 
VALUES('$name', '$id','$image','$event')";
 $rs = mysql_query($sql) or die ("Problem with the query: $sql<br>" . mysql_error());
echo mysql_error();
$target_path = "images/";

foreach ($_FILES["uploadedfile"]["name"] as $key => $value) {
$uploadfile = $target_path . basename($_FILES[uploadedfile][name][$key]);
//echo $uploadfile;
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploadedfile']['tmp_name'][$key], $uploadfile)) { echo $value . ' uploaded<br>'; }
}
copy($template, "$name.php");

}

?>
<form action="new.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"><input name="name" type="text" /><input name="id" type="hidden" value=<?php echo $id; ?> /><br />
<input name="event" type="text" /><input name="image" type="text" value="images/<?php echo $value; ?>" /><input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="900000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000" />
Choose a file to upload:

     <div id="dynamicInput">
          Entry 1<br><input type="file" name="uploadedfile[]">
     </div>
     <input type="button" value="Add another text input" onClick="addInput('dynamicInput');">
<br /><input name="submit" type="submit" value="submit" /></form>
if I do it after the form submits then it shows up, is there a way to make it appear before it submits....like a second field echoing what the first field has typed it and it updates "live"?

hi i have the following contact us form which works fine. i need lil more tweaking.
Right now when i submit the form it displays the information "blah blah", "the form has been submitted successfully" and also the form.
What i want to do is if the form has been submitted successfully i need not display the form again.
I need to display the data before the form field:
"Blah Blah"(information before the form code)
"the form has been submitted successfully"
I do not need to display the form if it has been a successful submission.
here is my code:

Code: [Select]
<?php

include($headerpath);

//change this to use mysql count function

$totalentriesrow = mysql_query("SELECT DISTINCT userid FROM user", $con);
$totalentriesrow = mysql_num_rows($totalentriesrow);

?>
