PHP - Isset On Form Submission Not Working!

For some reason the !isset() function doesnt seem to work i cant find out why hope you guys will be able to help

Here is the html code for the form where the user enters the data

Code: [Select]

<div id="contact_form">
       
                <h2>On Site SEO Signup Form</h2>
               
                <form method="post" name="contact" action="http://www.techbreeze.in/freeseo.php">

<label for="uname">Name:</label> <input name="uname" type="text" class="required input_field" id="uname" />
    <div class="cleaner h10"></div>

<label for="email">Email:</label> <input type="text" class="validate-email required input_field" name="email" id="email" />
<div class="cleaner h10"></div>

<label for="website">Website:</label> <input type="text" class="required input_field" id="website" name="website"/>
                        <div class="cleaner h10"></div>
                       
                        <label for="ftp">Your FTP Login URL:</label> <input type="text" class="required input_field" id="url" name="url" />
<div class="cleaner h10"></div>
                       
                        <label for="username">Your FTP Username:</label> <input type="text" class="required input_field" id="user" name="user" />
<div class="cleaner h10"></div>
                                       
<label for="password">Your FTP Password:</label> <input type="password" class="required input_field" id="pass" name="pass"/>
<div class="cleaner h10"></div>

<input type="submit" value="Send" id="submit" name="submit" class="submit_btn float_l" />
<input type="reset" value="Reset" id="reset" name="reset" class="submit_btn float_r" />

</form>

            </div>

And here is the code for the .php file where the !isset() function is used

Code: [Select]
<?php
     
    // validation expected data exists
    if( !isset($_POST['uname']))
    {
          die ('We are sorry, but all the fields are necessary you cant leave the "Name" field empty!');  
    }
 if( !isset($_POST['pass']))
   {
      die ('We are sorry, but all the fields are necessary you cant leave the "Password" field empty!');      
    }
if( !isset($_POST['email']))
   {
        die ('We are sorry, but all the fields are necessary you cant leave the "Email" field empty!');  

   }
   if( !isset($_POST['website']))
    {
          die ('We are sorry, but all the fields are necessary you cant leave the "Website" field empty!');  
    }
if( !isset($_POST['url']))
    {
          die ('We are sorry, but all the fields are necessary you cant leave the "FTP URL" field empty!');  
    }
if( !isset($_POST['user']))
    {
          die ('We are sorry, but all the fields are necessary you cant leave the "Username" field empty!');  
    

Thanks in advance

Sorry for the miss spell on correctly counldn't edit the title   I need to have the following 3 varibles checked to see if they are set and if not display an error saying "All fields need to be filled in."
My problem is that it's not working. Did I mess up on my if statement?

$tempneeded
$lowtemp
$gallons
 

<?php


$tempneeded = $_POST['tempneeded'];
$lowtemp = $_POST['lowtemp'];
$gallons = $_POST['gallons'];


     htmlspecialchars($tempneeded, ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8') . ' ' .  
     htmlspecialchars($lowtemp, ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8') . ' ' .  
     htmlspecialchars($gallons, ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8') . ' ' .  


$wgd = .5;
$tempdiff = $tempneeded - $lowtemp;
$wattsneeded = $tempdiff * ($gallons * $wgd);

if (!isset ($lowtemp,$tempneeded,$gallons))
{

echo "<b>All fields need to be filled in.</b>";

} else {
echo "<b>You will need a total of $wattsneeded watts to rasie your tempature $tempdiff degress, from $lowtemp to $tempneeded.</b></td></tr>";
}
?>

I have a simple log in form. By debugging I found that isset post submit function is not responding. It remains on the same page after submitting form. I have googled all the possible solutions to this problem but none worked. Any help is greatly appreciated. The form is in multiplelogin.php  file and the code is in multi.php file. After login redirection is to teachers.php file.

<?php

session_start();

$conn = mysqli_connect("localhost", "root",  "", "signup");

if(isset($_SESSION['username'])) {
    
    header('location: teachers.php');

    exit();
     
}

Hello! This may sound like a stupid question but i have been trying to get this working all day and its driving me crazy.   Ive been asked to take over development of this project, he sent me his code and its a little out of date so im trying to update it. Here is what i cant work out.   I have this little snippet of code:

if ($page == "showthread"){
	showThread();
} 

There are several more like that, but you dont need a whole list.   That code seems to be throwing up this error when i go to that specific page: Notice: Undefined index: error in .....   All well and good, i would usually do this:

if (isset($page) == "showthread"){
	showThread();
} 

Thats fine and dandy, the error goes away. But now, when i go to that page, it redirects me and gives me my error message for a non-existing page.   Its really frustrating me. Can you help me fix this little error?

soory guys .. actually i am trying to add pagination in script.. but its not pagging. but when i tried without isset($_get the code worked fine and then i tried to doing with isset($_get for a perticular cat but its not working. can someone see my code and tell me whats worng i have done.

Hey Guys,

Im working with a form and need some help.

So at the moment i have got it working so that if the user doesn't select the values from the drop down list, an error will occur saying 'Please select all fields'.

What i want to do now is make it so that if this error occurs, the value of the drop down list will stay as it is an NOT reset. Could someone help me out?

* Note that the code below is currently ok, basically it checks if there is a value, if not it will say "Select Player".

Code: [Select]

<td>Prop</td>
    <td><select name="prop1" style="width: 150px">
<option value="<? echo $row['prop1']; ?>"><? if (empty($row['prop1'])) { echo "Select Player"; } else { echo $row['prop1'];  } ?></option>
<?php echo $option_str; ?>
    </select></td>
    <td>16.</td>
    <td><select name="r16" style="width: 150px">
<option value="<? echo $row['r16']; ?>"><? if (empty($row['r16'])) { echo "Select Player"; } else { echo $row['r16'];  } ?></option>
      <?php echo $option_str; ?>
    </select></td>

Hi all,
Hoping someone can help with what i would guess is a very simple problem.

I have the following code which is suppose to display a form. the form posts to itself and uses isset and if the form has been posted it doesnt display the form.

if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {

echo "question submitted successfully";
}
else {
          echo '<form method="post" name="qanda" id="qanda" action="http://' . $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"].$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] . '">';
          echo '<p><label for="name">Name</label> <input type="text" id="name" /></p>';
          echo '<p><label for="e-mail">E-mail</label> <input type="text" id="e-mail" /></p>';
          echo '<p><label for="Question">Question</label>  <textarea rows="6" id="question"></textarea></p>';
          echo '<p class="submit"><input type="submit" value="Submit" /></p></form>';
  }

this currently doesnt work.

Extra things you might need to know is that this script/form is an included file in a dynamic site which also uses the rewrite module which is why I am using http://' . $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"].$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] just incase that makes a difference.

I have a form that is supposed to use PHP to display errors next to incomplete form fields when the form is submitted.

But I am never getting into my PHP loop.

I tried using the print_r(true) function to debug, but no luck.

When I click submit I see this i the URL...

http://localhost/00_MyWebSite/zzEmptyPHP.php?firstName=&lastName=&submit=Process+Order&submitted=true

which is what I would expect on a blank form being submitted.

Here is my code...

Code: [Select]
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">

margin: 0 auto;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<?php
// Initialize.
$errors = array();
$errors['firstName'] = '';
$errors['lastName'] = '';
$firstName = $lastName = '';

echo "print_r = " . print_r(true);

if (isset($_POST['submit'])){
// Handle Form.

// Trim all incoming data.
$trimmed = array_map('trim', $_POST);

// Check First Name.
if (preg_match('/^[A-Z\'.-]{2,20}$/i', $_POST['firstName'])){
$firstName = $_POST['firstNamae'];
}else{
$errors['firstName'] = 'Please enter your First Name.';
}

// Check Last Name.
if (preg_match('/^[A-Z\'.-]{2,20}$/i', $_POST['lastName'])){
$lastName = $_POST['lastName'];
}else{
$errors['lastName'] = 'Please enter your Last Name.';
}

// if there are errors then go back to the form and display them
}else{

}
?>
<form action="">
<fieldset>
<legend>Billing Details</legend>
<ol>
<li>
<label for="firstName">First Name:</label>
<input id="firstName" name="firstName" class="text" type="text" />
<?php echo $errors['firstName']; ?>
</li>
<li>
<label for="lastName">Last Name:</label>
<input id="lastName" name="lastName" class="text" type="text" />
<?php echo $errors['lastName']; ?>
</li>
</ol>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Process Order" />
<input type="hidden" name="submitted" value="true" />
</fieldset>
</form>
</body>
</html>

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

Thanks,


Debbie

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.

Code: [Select]
<?php require ('php/eventnames.php'); ?>
   
<script type="text/javascript" src="forms/addnew/js/eventnames.js"></script>

<!-- Form -->
<form action="#" id="eventNameForm" >
    <fieldset>
    <legend>Add New Event Name</legend>
            <div class="field required">
        <label for="eventName">Event Name</label>
        <input type="text" class="text" name="eventName" id="eventName" title="Event Name"/>
        <span class="required-icon tooltip" title="Required field - This field is required, it cannot be blank, and must contain something that is different from emptyness in order to be filled in. ">Required</span>
        </div>
            <div class="field required">

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; 
     }
	}

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

Hi,

I have a form on my page.

<form id="advanced_search" name="advanced_search" method="POST" action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF;?>">

</form>

Form submits with a regular button
<input type="submit" name="advSearch" id="advSearch" value="Search" />

And i have a detector to see where submit button has been clicked on my next page:
if(isset($_POST['advSearch'])) {
    echo "Button was clicked";
}

However, I wanted a custom button for better styling and control.
So i replaced my regular button with this now which uses javascript to submit the form.

<a class="button" href="javascript:document.advanced_search.submit()" name="advSearch" id="advSearch"><span>Search</span></a>

Now the isset($_POST) is not working anymore.
Can anyone help please??

Thanks!

I'm having a few issues with a serach function in Internet Explorer, it works fine in firefox which is very annoying.

What basically is happening, is the a form is sumbitting and posting info across, but on itself and then this is transfered into a php variable which is used on the query. Default values have been assigned if the isset of the form is not true.

So I believe the issue is occuring on the " if(isset($_POST['submit'])) " but as stated it works perfectly fine in firefox. Any suggestions?

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.
