PHP - Send And Receive Data From Https Url In Php
Hello,
i want to send and receive data from https url. how it can be done in php? Thanks Similar TutorialsHey, I'm trying to send a form input to a page, and then get the response (as in, the body) from that page without leaving my PHP script. So instead of when you normally submit a form and it will take you to the 'action="/somepage"'. I want it to get that information and bring it back to the original page. No navigation should happen. I'm almost certain this is possible, but the only thing I've found at the moment requires a custom addon - which, isn't on most hosting sites. Sorry if I haven't described this very well, but any help would be appreciated Thanks tree Not sure if my title line was worded correctly, but here is what I am trying to understand... I need to hook my website up to a payment gateway to accept credit cards. After I package up the customer's payment details and send the payment gateway an XML string, their server supposedly sends back a request for more information OR it indicates a Pass/Fail message. This is where I am getting lost. If I send data over HTTPS using POST, then how am I supposed to receive a message back from them? It's not like we are on the telephone and there is a "live" link between my web server and theirs?! Can someone please explain how this works? Thanks, Debbie Hi friends. I have a problem with https about $_SESSION in php last time my website is working correctly with http but after change to https I can send value of session to another page
login.php session_start(); $_SESSION['user_ID'] = 8;
Action.php session_start(); echo "User ID = " . $_SESSION['user_ID'] ; //// It's not show any thing
Thank you very much for your help Hi, I'm working on a web application that will interact with an existing website from another company. On the other company's site, there will be a form (using POST) that has my web application as the action element. The user who clicked the submit button will be redirected to my site, where I need to receive the $_POST data from this form to process before redirecting into the web application. I have done work on the other side, using standard form posts to send data to another site, but I've never had to write the code for the receiving end. How do I receive the form data posted from the other website? Can I access the $_POST[''] array as I would with any normal same-site POST transaction? Please let me know if you need additional detail or if my question wasn't clear! I'm fast approaching deadlines and really appreciate your help! Thanks! I'm trying to send a HTTPS POST request with XML data to a server using PHP. Anything sends to the server requires authentication therefore I'll use cURL. Some background info.: the XML data is to request the server to upload a file from a specific URL to its local storage. One rule of using this API is I MUST set the content type for each request to application/xml. This is what I've done but isn't working... <?php $fields = array( 'data'=>'<n1:asset xmlns:n1="http://.....com/"><title>AAAA</title><fileName>http://192.168.11.30:8080/xxx.html</fileName><description>AAAA_desc</description><fileType>HTML</fileType></n1:asset>' ); $fields_string = ""; foreach($fields as $key=>$value) { $fields_string .= $key.'='.$value.'&'; } rtrim($fields_string,'&'); $url = "https://192.168.11.41:8443/"; $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, count($fields)); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $fields_string); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, false); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, true); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, "admin:12345678"); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-type: application/xml', 'Content-length: '. strlen($fields_string)) ); $result = curl_exec( $ch ); curl_close($ch); echo $result; ?> I am expected to get an XML reply of either upload successful or upload failed. But instead I am getting this error message. HTTP/1.1 415 Unsupported Media Type Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1 Content-Type: text/xml;charset=UTF-8 Content-Length: 0 Date: Thu, 02 Dec 2010 03:02:33 GMT I'm sure the file type is correct, the XML format is correct. I've tried urlencode the fields but it didn't work. What else I might have done wrong? Here's the code that deals with the client side:
<?php session_start(); if(!isset($_SESSION['Logged_in'])){ header("Location: /page.php?page=login"); } ?> <!DOCTYPE Html> <html> <head> <!--Connections made and head included--> <?php require_once("../INC/head.php"); ?> <?php require_once("../Scripts/DB/connect.php"); ?> <!--Asynchronously Return User Names--> <script> $(document).ready(function(){ function search(){ var textboxvalue = $('input[name=search]').val(); $.ajax( { type: "GET", url: 'search.php', data: {Search: textboxvalue}, success: function(result) { $("#results").html(result); } }); }; </script> </head> <body> <div id="header-wrapper"> <?php include_once("../INC/nav2.php"); ?> </div> <div id="content"> <h1 style="color: red; text-align: center;">Member Directory</h1> <form onsubmit="search()"> <label for="search">Search for User:</label> <input type="text" size="70px" id="search" name="search"> </form> <a href="index.php?do=">Show All Users</a>|<a href="index.php?do=ONLINE">Show All Online Users</a> <div id="results"> <!--Results will be returned HERE!--> </div>search.php <?php //testing if data is sent ok echo "<h1>Hello</h1><br>" . $_GET['search']; ?>This is the link I get after sending foo. http://www.family-li...php?&search=foo Is that mean it was sent, but I'm not processing it correctly? I'm new to the whole AJAX thing. ..and its not working (i replaced <textarea> with <div> to apply some html tags inside it ) and this is my form : Code: [Select] <form action="proc.php" method="post"> <div id="text" name="question_text" class="text" contenteditable="true"></div> </form> but when i submit some text the $_POST['question_text'] is not set ! Quick question for you guys. I am collecting payment data for a product. Is it possible to send data from my form via http directly into another payment form via the post http headers? So say if i had all the details payment info and address info and i matched my form exactly to theirs. Is it possible to write a php script to send the data from my form directly to another websites form to make an order, say amazon or a big site like this? ?first_name=samuel&last_name=east&action=Submit Any Help? Thanks Hello everyone, I am trying to submit a comment in a comment box and send it to the DB but is not happening. The connection is good as I am logging in and all but no data is sent to the DB when I post the comment. It doesn't show in my comment section either.
Form <!--comment section--> <?php if(isset($_SESSION['id'])) { echo "<form method='POST' action='" . setComments($conn) .

I am retrieving Google Books info in JSON format and displaying it inside a div. I would like to send the contents of this div (name, title, description) to my database using Ajax.
Currently only the ISBN field sends because I have it declared as a variable. However my question is, how do I send the other fields (name, title, author). How do I declare these also, I'm not sure what format they need to be in etc.
My JS
$(document).ready(function() { $('#submit').click(function(ev) { ev.preventDefault(); var isbn = $('#isbn_search').val(); //get isbn direct from input var url='https://www.googleapis.com/books/v1/volumes?q='+isbn; $.getJSON(url,function(data){ $.each(data.items, function(entryIndex, entry){ var html = '<div class="results well">'; html += '<h3>' + entry.volumeInfo.title + '</h3>'; html += '<div class="author">' + entry.volumeInfo.authors + '</div>'; html += '<div class="description">' + entry.volumeInfo.description + '</div>'; }); }); }); });My Ajax; $.ajax({ type: 'POST', url: 'addIsbnScript.php', data: { 'isbn' : isbn, 'title' : title 'subtitle' : subtitle, 'authors' : authors, 'description' : description }, success: function () { $.growl({ message: " Record added" }); } });Note, if i manually set the vars like below they all do successfully send to my database, so I know my query is working ok var title = "some text", var author = "some text", Var description = "some text"Thanks in advance for any help, newbie here (incase it wasn't obvious!). J I needed a server side PHP validation script for my form to use on top of client side Javascript as a backup. I found a nice package where I just include the validator and set a few options then it does the rest. However it doesn't seem to work with the action="whateveraction.php" for the form. It will skip all the validation and immediately go to the action script. So I left that blank as you can see in the form below and figured I would send the post data somehow to the script using PHP when the validation is successful. However I am stumped on how to do that can I get some coding help? This is the small validation script. I will attach the formvalidator.php in this post. Code: [Select] <?php require_once "formvalidator.php"; if(isset($_POST['submit'])) { $validator = new FormValidator(); $validator->addValidation("age","req","Please fill in your Age"); $validator->addValidation("mcid","req","Please fill in your Minecraft Username"); $validator->addValidation("description","req","Please fill in a Description"); if($validator->ValidateForm()) { //need something here to have it send the post data to /mcbuildapp/form_submit.php } else { echo "<div class=blockrow><b><font size=5>Form Errors:</font><b></div>"; $error_hash = $validator->GetErrors(); foreach($error_hash as $inpname => $inp_err) { echo "<div class=blockrow><p><font color=red>$inp_err</font></p>\n</div>"; } } } Then the form if it matters.... Code: [Select] <div class="blockrow"> <font size=4><b>Minecraft Building Rights Application</b></font> <br /> <br /> <b>Failing to fill in any of these fields sufficiently will result in an automatic denial of your application!</b><br /> <b>Think of it this way, being lazy and applying wrong is only wasting your time. Take the time to do it correctly the first time.</b> <br /> <br /> <b><font color=red>To ensure proper user authentication and security you must first join the server at least once before applying for your building rights to work!</font></b> <br /> <br /> <form action="" id="mcbuilderapp" name="mcbuilderapp" method="post"> <label><b>Your Minecraft Username (required)</b><br /> Use exact capitalization and punctuation that matches your Minecraft.net account!</label> <br /> <br /> <input type="text" name="mcid" id="mcid" maxlength="25"/> <br /> <br /> <label><b>Your Age (required)</b></label> <br /> <br /> <input type="text" name="age" id="age" maxlength="3"/> <br /> <br /> <label><b>Describe Yourself (required)</b><br /> Describe yourself in <b>no less</b> than 3 sentences using <b>correct grammar</b>.</label> <br /> <br /> <textarea name="description" id="description" minlength="10" maxlength="1000" cols=60 rows=5 wrap="physical"> </textarea> <br /> <br /> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" /> </form> </div> MOD EDIT: PHP manual tags changed to code tags . . . [attachment deleted by admin] I am successfully doing this, however, I believe I am doing it wrong. I am currently doing the following. How should I be doing this? My thought is getObject.php should return JSON, not JavaScript, but I don't know how to assign the received JSON to the myObj variable. Thanks How to send multipart/form-data ? via curl or so ... here i am going to send it - http://dezend.me/dezend/ I'm sure this is a simple question, and I'm not a total newbie, but I keep drawing a blank. In accordance with existing specifications, a client has created a PHP page on their web server which responds to a query by returning a small block of XML. I need to use that XML, and I have no problem doing that using XMLReader->open(clientURL). I can call the client's PHP page and get XML back that I can parse and everything is wonderful. Except for one thing: I need to send a product ID when I call the client's PHP page, and I need to send it using the POST method. I guess that means my clean and neat one-step process is going to have to become a two-step process, and I'm going to have to use some other means besides XMLReader->open() to retrieve the XML. Can sombody recommend the best way to do this? I need to send POST data first to get the correct XML response, and then I need to capture the XML in a way that allows me to parse it. Hi, I am sending data from a form to a URL using $_GET but I would also like the user to be redirected to a thankyou page which is a different URL. Does anyone know if this is possible? Thanks, Hi All, I have a table (with an ID of example) that can be seen he http://tinyurl.com/cfla7wp The following script calls jeditable.js and makes the Telephone & Mobile columns editable. Once edited, the table shows the new value plus a * symbol. Code: [Select] <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function() { /* Init DataTables */ var oTable = $('#example').dataTable(); /* Apply the jEditable handlers to the table */ $('td:eq(4), td:eq(5)', oTable.fnGetNodes()).editable( 'update_table_tenants.php', { "callback": function( sValue, y ) { var aPos = oTable.fnGetPosition( this ); oTable.fnUpdate( sValue, aPos[0], aPos[1] ); }, "submitdata": function ( value, settings ) { return { "row_id": this.parentNode.getAttribute("1"), "column": oTable.fnGetPosition( this )[2] }; }, "height": "14px" } ); } ); </script> What I need to do however is add the value entered into my database, but I do not know how to do this. I believe I need to do something like: UPDATE my_table VALUE whatever column has been edited in the table WHERE tenID is the same as the row selected in the table i.e. if I update the MOBILE NUMBER of the person called BILL GATES it would find his tenID, update numMobile in the table called my_table All help appreciated Dave The top half of this code works great ( where the HR line across ) now I'm trying to get it to post the some of the same data to another process script. I keep getting errors. can some please tell me what I'm doing wrong or missing. <?php function dataPost($fieldValue){ //extract data from the post extract($_POST); //set POST variables $url = 'http://www.domain.com/processform1.phpp'; $fields = array( 'how_you_heard_about_us'=>$how_you_heard_about_us, 'how_you_heard_about_us_other'=>$how_you_heard_about_us_other, 'chk_atm_machines'=>$chk_atm_machines, 'custom1'=>$custom1, 'txt_business_adrss'=>$txt_business_adrss, 'txt_city'=>$txt_city, 'txt_state'=>$txt_state, 'txt_zip'=>$txt_zip, 'txt_country'=>$txt_country, 'txt_phone'=>$txt_phone, 'txt_fax'=>$txt_fax, 'txt_website'=>$txt_website, 'firstname'=>$firstname, ); //url-ify the data for the POST foreach($fields as $key=>$value) { $fields_string .= $key.'='.$value.'&'; } rtrim($fields_string,'&'); //open connection $ch = curl_init(); //set the url, number of POST vars, POST data curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL,$url); curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_POST,count($fields)); curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,$fields_string); //execute post $result = curl_exec($ch); //close connection curl_close($ch); from here down I'm not to sure with..... //create array of data to be posted $post_data['firstname'] = 'firstname'; $post_data['custom1'] = 'custom1'; $post_data['txt_state'] = 'txt_state'; //traverse array and prepare data for posting (key1=value1) foreach ( $post_data as $key => $value) { $post_items[] = $key .

Also, good with sending simple arrays using []. But then I find myself needing to send a deeper object to the server . For example, I have a form with three text inputs simpleFormName 1, 2, and 3 plus some deeper object. Array ( [simpleFormName1] => bla [simpleFormName2] => bla [simpleFormName3] => bla [deeperObject] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [prop1] => bla [prop2] => true [data] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [p1] => 321 [p2] => 123 ) [1] => Array ( [p1] => 121 [p2] => 423 ) [2] => Array ( [p1] => 221 [p2] => 133 ) ) ) [1] => Array ( [prop1] => blabla [prop2] => false [data] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [p1] => 222 [p2] => 443 ) [1] => Array ( [p1] => 321 [p2] => 213 ) [2] => Array ( [p1] => 111 [p2] => 421 ) ) ) ) )
I see at least four options: Come up with naming structure which "flattens" the data. I have used this approach in the past, but it quickly becomes difficult to manage and I don't want to do so. Not use PHP's POST and and instead use Content-Type: application/json and file_get_contents(php://input) and json_decode the entire request server side. Use PHP's POST and urlencoding but make deeperObject a string using JSON.stringify and json_decode this one field server side. Urlencode the entire object.simpleFormName1=bla&simpleFormName2=bla&simpleFormName3=bla&deeperObject%5B0%5D%5Bprop1%5D=bla&deeperObject%5B0%5D%5Bprop2%5D=true&deeperObject%5B0%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B0%5D%5Bp1%5D=321&deeperObject%5B0%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B0%5D%5Bp2%5D=123&deeperObject%5B0%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B1%5D%5Bp1%5D=121&deeperObject%5B0%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B1%5D%5Bp2%5D=423&deeperObject%5B0%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B2%5D%5Bp1%5D=221&deeperObject%5B0%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B2%5D%5Bp2%5D=133&deeperObject%5B1%5D%5Bprop1%5D=blabla&deeperObject%5B1%5D%5Bprop2%5D=false&deeperObject%5B1%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B0%5D%5Bp1%5D=222&deeperObject%5B1%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B0%5D%5Bp2%5D=443&deeperObject%5B1%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B1%5D%5Bp1%5D=321&deeperObject%5B1%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B1%5D%5Bp2%5D=213&deeperObject%5B1%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B2%5D%5Bp1%5D=111&deeperObject%5B1%5D%5Bdata%5D%5B2%5D%5Bp2%5D=421 Any recommendations how to best implement? If you recommend using urlencoding for simple forms, but some other approach for more complex data, what criteria do you use to transition from one approach to another? Thanks Hi there, hope u guys able to help. I'm have created a enquiry form where I want these actions to run when a button is submitted: 1. Insert data from form fields into my database 2.

Thank you in advanced and sorry for bad English. Best regards, Desmond Hey there, I gotta say I am new to this forum and new to PHP. I found a script online that sends NOW PLAYING data, from a text file, to a shout cast server. We're not using shout cast and I need to modify this script to make it work with TuneIn AIR API. The script is based on this server URL: Quote http://myusername:pass@192.168.1.22:8543/admin/metadata?mount=/live&mode=updinfo&song=somesongandartist Though TuneIn uses a different URL and API Quote GET http://air.radiotime.com/Playing.ashx?partnerId=<id>&partnerKey=<key>&id=<stationid>&title=Bad+Romance&artist=Lady+Gaga I currently don't have the PartnerID and PartnerKey but that should be easy to replace in the script. I'm calling everyone on this forum to help me out with this and change the code to make this script work. I would appreciate it very much!! I'm a radio guy and not not a coder. Thats why I ask for this big favor. Thank you very much. WPBK FM |
