PHP - How Do I Pass A Get Variable So It's Url Friendly?

Hello!

I've got an issue! I'm trying to pass a very very long variable from JS to PHP through $_GET, but it seems too long for get.

Is there any encryption function that works on both JS and PHP, so I can encrypt it in JS, send it though GET and decrypt it in PHP?

Thanks !

I am passing the variable $searchno from form1.html using

<form action="display1.php" method="post"
Display1.php reads my database and displays the data. Now I want to link from the displayed page to display2.php and pass and capture the same variable $searchno.

How do I do that?

Hi, I have this script, it all works fine apart from when I pass the variable on, it only passes the first word and not the whole variable

The form that actions to the samples page passes the $siteName as My Test Site, if I type echo $siteName in the sameples page, it will print My Test Site, however when I use this

Code: [Select]
createSample&siteName=$siteName
to pass the variable to the next page, it just echos 'My' instead of My Test Site. Even when I scroll over the link above it just shows My in the url.

Code: [Select]
case "samples":

// Get submitted data and assign to variables

$siteName = $_POST['siteName'];
$adminEmail = $_POST['adminEmail'];
$sendmailLoc = $_POST['sendmailLoc'];
$imgdir = $_POST['imgdir'];
$imgdirbase = $_POST['imgdirbase'];

// Write variable data to text file

$FileName = "data/server.txt";
$FileHandle = fopen($FileName, 'w') or die("can't open file");
$data = "<?php\n\$siteName = '$siteName';\n?>";
fwrite($FileHandle, $data);
$data = "<?php\n\$adminEmail = '$adminEmail';\n?>";
fwrite($FileHandle, $data);
$data = "<?php\n\$sendmailLoc = '$sendmailLoc';\n?>";
fwrite($FileHandle, $data);
$data = "<?php\n\$imgdir = '$imgdir';\n?>";
fwrite($FileHandle, $data);
$data = "<?php\n\$imgdirbase = '$imgdirbase';\n?>";
fwrite($FileHandle, $data);
fclose($FileHandle);

// Displays the create sample pages page

ECHO <<<SAMPLES

<table border=0 align=center bgcolor=#00CCFF>
  <tr>
    <td><span class=style1><b><center>Create Sample Pages</center></b></span></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>Would you like Member Site Maker to create sample pages for:
<ul>
<li>index.html</li>
<li>login.html</li>
<li>search.html</li>
<li>register.html</li>
</ul>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><a href=installation.php?cmd=createSample&siteName=$siteName>Yes</a>
</td>
<td><a href=installation.php?cmd=mysql>No</a>

</td>
</tr>

</table>

SAMPLES;

break;
Can anybody tell me where I am going wrong please?

Thanks

Can someone explain to me how this is done?

You guys are great, thanks again for the help last week.

Now I almost got this working but a small hiccup.

here is my code:
Code: [Select]

<?php 
include("config.php");
$my_t=getdate(date("U"));
$my_t1=$my_t[weekday];
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM tourney where day_of_week = '$my_t1'") or die(mysql_error()); 
if ($result == '') echo "<br>Empty Set\n";
print_r ($my_t1); This prints correctly

Code: [Select]
while ($result = mysql_fetch_array($result,MYSQL_ASSOC)) { This is my error. "Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /hermes/bosweb/web017/b172/ipg.dswdesignsnet/pp4c/charity1.php on line 8"

Code: [Select]
print "<b>Starting Time: <br></b>".$row{'start_time'}."<br><b>Tournament: </b><br>".$row{'tourney'}."<br><b>Buy-in: <br>".$row{'buy_in'}."<br><b>Starting Chips: <br>".$row{'start_chips'}."</font><p>";
This prints headers correctly, but no variables.

Code: [Select]
}
mysql_close($dbh);
?>
What did I forget to do or what did I do wrong.

I'm still learning mysql and php.

When i execute the following code, it works and retrieves the record info i am looking for for the appropriate record, 2155015898:

  $adgrouppass = 2155015898;
  $selector->adGroupIds = array($adgrouppass);

However, when i try to get the adgroup variable from my url, which is where it is located, it doesn't work:

  $adgroup = trim($_GET['adgroup']);
  $adgrouppass = $adgroup;
  $selector->adGroupIds = array($adgrouppass);

yet, in trying to fix it, if i echo the above variable, it says it is correct, which is 2155015898.

Not sure if the $adgrouppass needs to be a string or variable to get it to pass it correctly.  Can anyone help?
 

Hi,

Im trying to pass a variable ($in_this_instance) into, and then back out of a function.  The variable goes into the function no problem, and is echo'ed out fine.  However the echo after the close of the function, does not give anything out. 

Code: [Select]
$in_this_instance = 'boo';

function in_this_instance($data) {
global $in_this_instance;

echo $in_this_instance;

$in_this_instance = 'hoo';


$rep_val = '[front banner]';

    $test = strpos($data, $rep_val);
    if ($test === false) {
return $data;
    } else {
    return $data;;
    }
}

add_filter('the_content', 'in_this_instance');
echo $in_this_instance;

Could any one give me a pointer please?  Many Thanks!

Hi All,

I have a function that i want to pass a variable into so that i can do some SQL on it.

The information that i want to pass into it is a data-id on a button that is used to trigger the function.

The button that will be clicked is this

<div class='modaltrigger btn btn-primary' data-id='$itemId' data-toggle='modal'>Manage</div>

This button is being created by another function.

I would like to know either how i pass the variable from one function to another or how i pass it from the data-id to the function in php.

Thanks in advance.

I have a table that has 5 columns

Quote

player_id
fname
lname
team
email


I'm trying to get all the values from that table using this sql command

Code: [Select]
include_once('../database_connection.php');

$player_id = addslashes($_REQUEST['edit_player']);

$sql_query = "Select * from nba_info where player_id = '$player_id'";
$result = MYSQL_QUERY($sql_query);
"edit_player" above is came from a different page.




They I'm fetching the data using while

Code: [Select]
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
$row['player_id'];
    $row['fname'];
    $row['lname'];
    $row['team'];
    $row['email'];
}
Then I'm trying to pass that values to a variable here

Code: [Select]
$id = $row['player_id'];
$fname = $row['fname'];
$fname = $row['lname'];
$lname = $row['team'];
$email = $row['email'];

When I'm trying to put that variables in a textbox value, they are not showing up

Here

Code: [Select]
<table>
<form name="edit_player_form" method="post" action="">

<tr>
<td>Players ID</td>
<td><input type="text" name="playerid" size="20" value="<?php echo $id; ?>" /></td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td>First Name</td>
<td><input type="text" name="fname" size="20" value="<?php echo $fname; ?>" /></td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td>Last Name</td>
<td><input type="text" name="lname" size="20" value="<?php echo $lname; ?>" /></td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td>Team</td>
<td><input type="text" name="team" size="20" value="<?php echo $team; ?>" /></td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td>Email</td>
<td><input type="text" name="email" size="20" value="<?php echo $email; ?>" /></td>
</tr>


<tr>
         <td><div align="center">
         <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Edit This Player">
         </div></td>
        </tr>



</form>
</table>


I wonder why it ain't showing up on the textbox value? tried almost everything... Anyone?

Currently I have a PHP file that is pulling information from a table in the Database and inserting it into an HTML table. It consists of the fields: Last_Name, First_Name, Party, District, Address, CIty, State, Zip, and Email. And the Email field is being converted to a Hyperlink.  (All working fine so far)

I also have a form that has a prewritten letter to be sent to the email address. I need to have the HyperLink from the Email pass the address to the form to allow me to send it. I am not sure how to get this to happen. Here is the code I have so far:

The pull from the database:
<?php




$dbhost = 'localhost';
$dbuser = 'removed';
$dbpass = 'removed';
$db = 'removed';

$link = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass)or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db($db)or die(mysql_error());

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM 2011members") 
or die(mysql_error());  


echo "<table border='1'>";
echo "<tr> <th>Last Name</th> <th>First Name</th> <th>Party</th> <th>District</th> <th>Address</th> <th>City</th> <th>State</th> <th>Zip</th> <th>Email</th> </tr>";
// keeps getting the next row until there are no more to get
while($row = mysql_fetch_array( $result )) {
// Print out the contents of each row into a table
echo "<tr><td>"; 
echo $row['Last_Name'];
echo "</td><td>"; 
echo $row['First_Name'];
echo "</td><td>"; 
echo $row['Party'];
echo "</td><td>"; 
echo $row['District'];
echo "</td><td>"; 
echo $row['Address'];
echo "</td><td>"; 
echo $row['City'];
echo "</td><td>"; 
echo $row['State'];
echo "</td><td>"; 
echo $row['Zip'];
echo "</td><td>"; 
//Normal Pull
//echo $row['Email'];
//echo "</td><td>"; 
//Just Hyperlink
//echo '<a href="http://',Email,'">',Email,'</a>';
//echo "</td></tr>"; 
echo '<a href="http://'.$row['Email'].'">'.$row['Email'].'</a>';
echo "</td></tr>"; 
} 

echo "</table>";
?>

What do I need to do to get the Email link from the HTML table to pass to the Email variable in the Form?

Hi,

this works:

if(file_exists("myFile.txt")){etc.}

this doesn't:

$myFile = "myFile.txt";
if(file_exists($myFile)){etc.}

Can anybody explain this to me?
I'd really like to pass the filename as a variable...

Kind regards,
R.

My website is multi-language and using mod_rewrite for clean urls. I have a $lang variable that stores the language code.

For example:

website.com/index.php?lang=en, which turns to website.com/en

I use a $_GET["lang"] to get the language and prepare the links to the other pages, for example a link to page1.php would be page1.php?lang=$_GET["lang"].

What I want to know is if this is the right way to do it or there is a better way.
