PHP - Need To Reset Form On Dropdown
Hi all
I have a form where there are three fields, category, type, colour. On the top drop down (Category) I need it to reset the form and remove the url parameters when it is selected. Here's my code: <form id="filter" name="filter" method="get" action="product.php"> <br /><strong>Categories:</strong><br /><br /> <select name="category" id="category_filter" style="width: 200px" onChange="this.form.submit();"> <option value="0" selected class="meter-calc-text">All Categories</option> <?php $fetchcategories=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `product_categories` ORDER BY id ASC"); while($returnedcategories=mysql_fetch_array($fetchcategories)) { echo "<option value=\"".$returnedcategories['id']."\"".(($returnedcategories['id']==$_GET['category']) ? ' selected="selected"':'').">".$returnedcategories['name']."</option>"; } ?> </select> How do I reset the url when the user clicks the drop down? Many thanks for your help Pete Similar TutorialsMy contact form works, but how can I reset it so that when someone fills in the required information and the send the email, I want the information from the text boxes to clear. Right now, it doesnt do that, the name,email address, and message remains in the text boxes.

Every time a user selects the drop down on the first form it send to the url and then a SQL query is run to select items from a database which works great for all three forms. However, the problem I have is when the user goes and re-selects a category from the first form it needs to reset the other two below it and emptying the url parameter for both so it just asks the SQL to select the items from that category again. Please help Many thanks Pete I am new to php and I thought it best to start by using a CMS and creating small functions to extend it's functionality. I will start by explaining the situation around what I want to do. I am trying to create a module for the drupal CMS. The module I am trying to create I am creating for my girlfriends son (for when it is complete he will be the one maintaining it through the web interface). He wants a game server (WOW) and a web site that once they create an account on the web site it will create an account on the game server as well. If I understand the way this works correctly for this game server to work you need a logon database and then a character and world database for each realm you have. With that basically what happens is you go to the drupal web site and click create account, input a username, email address and password and agree to terms of service. Then drupal does some checks and writes the information to the drupal database and with the module I creating it will write to the logon database as well. I am working on the admin forms so you can edit how many realms the server has the sql statement to login to the game and add and delete realms. I have been looking at an example of a form for drupal here http://drupal.org/node/717746 but have converted it to my purpose and it brings up some questions here is what I have so far: function wowcp_gameserver_settings($form_state) { $form['server'] = array( '#type' => 'fieldset', '#title' => t('WOW Game Server Core'), ); $form['server']['decision'] = array( '#type' => 'select', '#title' => 'Select the Server Core that your WOW server runs on', '#options' => array('TrinityCore2', 'ArcEMU', 'Aspire', 'Mangos'), '#default_value' => TrinityCore2, ); $form['server']['sql_command'] = array( '#type' => 'textfield', '#title' => 'Select the SQL command for your server core', '#size' => 150, ); $form['server']['max_realms'] = array( '#type' => 'textfield', '#title' => t('Select the maximum realms allowed'), '#size' => 2, ); $form['logon'] = array( '#type' => 'fieldset', '#title' => t('WOW Game Server LOGON database setup') ); $form['logon']['logon_db'] = array( '#type' => 'textfield', '#title' => t('Enter the name of the LOGON database'), '#size' => 25, ); $form['logon']['logon_username'] = array( '#type' => 'textfield', '#title' => t('Enter the username for the LOGON database'), '#size' => 25, ); $form['logon']['logon_password'] = array( '#type' => 'textfield', '#title' => t('Enter the password for the LOGON database'), '#size' => 25, ); $form['realm']['character'] = array( '#type' => 'fieldset', '#title' => t('WOW Game Server first realm'), ); $form['realm']['character']['character_db'] = array( '#type' => 'textfield', '#title' => t('Enter the name of the CHARACTER database'), '#default_value' => $form_state['values']['character_db'], '#size' => 25, ); $form['realm']['character']['character_username'] = array( '#type' => 'textfield', '#title' => t('Enter the username for the CHARACTER database'), '#default_value' => $form_state['values']['character_username'], '#size' => 25, ); $form['realm']['character']['character_password'] = array( '#type' => 'textfield', '#title' => t('Enter the password for the CHARACTER database'), '#default_value' => $form_state['values']['character_password'], '#size' => 25, ); $form['realm']['world']['world_db'] = array( '#type' => 'textfield', '#title' => t('Enter the name of the WORLD database'), '#defaule_value' => $form_state['values']['world_db'], '#size' => 25, ); $form['realm']['world']['world_username'] = array( '#type' => 'textfield', '#title' => t('Enter the username for the WORLD database'), '#defaule_value' => $form_state['values']['world_username'], '#size' => 25, ); $form['realm']['world']['world_password'] = array( '#type' => 'textfield', '#title' => t('Enter the password for the WORLD database'), '#defaule_value' => $form_state['values']['world_password'], '#size' => 25, ); if (isset($form_state['storage']['new_name'])) { $form['character2'] = array( '#type' => 'fieldset', '#title' => t('WOW Game Server CHARACTER database setup for realm2'), ); $form['character2']['character_db2'] = array( '#type' => 'textfield', '#title' => t('Enter the name of the CHARACTER database for relam2'), '#default_value' => $form_state['values']['character_db2'], '#size' => 25, ); $form['character2']['character_username2'] = array( '#type' => 'textfield', '#title' => t('Enter the username for the CHARACTER database for realm2'), '#default_value' => $form_state['values']['character_username2'], '#size' => 25, ); $form['character2']['character_password2'] = array( '#type' => 'textfield', '#title' => t('Enter the password for the CHARACTER database for realm2'), '#default_value' => $form_state['values']['character_password2'], '#size' => 25, ); $form['world2'] = array( '#type' => 'fieldset', '#title' => t('WOW ame Server WORLD database setup for realm2'), ); $form['world2']['world_db2'] = array( '#type' => 'textfield', '#title' => t('Enter the name of the WORLD database for realm2'), '#defaule_value' => $form_state['values']['world_db2'], '#size' => 25, ); $form['world2']['world_username2'] = array( '#type' => 'textfield', '#title' => t('Enter the username for the WORLD database for realm2'), '#defaule_value' => $form_state['values']['world_username2'], '#size' => 25, ); $form['world2']['world_password2'] = array( '#type' => 'textfield', '#title' => t('Enter the password for the WORLD database for realm2'), '#defaule_value' => $form_state['values']['world_password2'], '#size' => 25, ); } $form['submit'] = array( '#type' => 'submit', '#value' => 'Submit', ); $form['clear'] = array( '#type' => 'submit', '#value' => 'Reset', '#validate' => array('wowcp_form_clear'), ); if (empty($form_state['storage']['new_name'])) { $form['new_name'] = array( '#type' => 'submit', '#value' => 'Add Realm', '#validate' => array('wowcp_form_new_name'), ); $form['delete'] = array( '#type' => 'submit', '#value' => 'Delete Realm', '#validate' => array('wowcp_form_delete'), ); } return $form; } If max_realms is set to a large number the way I see it you would have to hard code everything into the php file. Instead of that could you not remove from the if(isset) and have it that when they click on the add realm button check to make sure the textfield contains a number if it doesn't return an error if it does contain a number make sure it is not greater then max_realms and then use a start count and adding that number to all the arrays for that realm and validate all the information is what you expect. I think this would work for adding realms, I think where the problem would come in is in deleting realms (or it could be me over thinking it). For example if you have max_realms set to 4 you could have 5 the one default one that can't be deleted plus 4 others and the ones that can be deleted would be called realm1 - realm4 if you delete the first 2 you would minus count by 2 so if you clicked add realm again it would try and create realm3 which already exists. Is there another way on doing this that you could create the realms and delete them and it not try to add realms with the same array name? I have a form that is very long. Sometimes the logged-in user will spend over 20 minutes on this screen and then when they hit submit, the session has already expired and they are redirected to the login screen and anything on that form is lost. Is there a way to reset the session timeout to zero everytime they either click the screen with the mouse, or type something into a form field (without submitting the form)? Not sure if this would only work with javascript or if there is php code that I would put in the beginning of the action.php that looks for whether the session has timed out and if so, add the form contents to the database first before logging them out? A php solution like that would be preferable to a javascript one. But also if the sessiopn has already expired, then the action.php script would be less secure if I put the code there because then anyone not logged in could use that page so that's probably not the solution. Best solution would be to reset the session timer whenever they click ont he screen or start typing in the form.

So I got help from here earlier with one problem and a few more have arisen, the biggest is for some reason my checkbox and dropdown array won't store the data and when it's supposed to check to verify there is at least 1 selected of each nothing happens... To be honest the ideal thing would be to have it check to see if the drop down size selection below the checkbox was selected, but I'll do whatever as long as it works.

I have been trying to figure this for a while now and reading the tutorials are not helping, I think I'm a little over my head on this one and was hoping someone could help me out with this issue.
I am making a User Edit page and would like to have the access level part of the form show the users access current access level thats set in the database when the page loads, and if it needs to be changed you can press the dropdown box and select a new access level. I can't figure out how to show the current access level as default and populate the drop down box with the other access levels in my table.
My Tables look like this
Users table (users):
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| id | username | password | flag | realfirst | reallast | dept |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 loderd 9 test guy Service
Auth Table (auth):
--------------------------------------------

Can someone help..Thankz <select name="mediaList" id="mediaList"> <option <?php echo ($rows['media_type'] =='Physical Only')?'selected="Selected"':'';?> >Physical Only</option> </select> hey all. i previously posted about how i lost all my data so im trying to recreate my form again. after not many replies from my desperate call for help i tried to figure it out on my own, i spent hours and hours going through this forum and others but im just running into brick walls because of my minor knowledge of php (though i do have to say i am picking it up a little!) my form is short and simple so this shouldnt be too hard but this is what i have come up with. my tables ---------------- Movies: ID(P_id),Title,Category (F_K),URL Categories: ID (P_Id),Category All i am needing my form to do is enter records into my movies table, therefore it goes like this: Title: "textbox" URL: "textbox" Category: "dropdown menu" "submit" now the thing here is that the dropdown menu needs to be populated with data from Category.Categories table so i can add that info into category in the movies table. so pretty much it will be sending the ID from Categories table into Category in the Movies and yes they both have the same datatype. so here is what i have so far. my form.php Code: [Select] <html> <form id="form1" name="Update" method="post" action="add.php"> <label> First Name: <input type="text" name="Title" id="textfield" /> </label> <br /> <label> Last Name: <input type="text" name="URL" id="textfield2" /> </label> <select name='Category'> <?php $con = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", ""); if (!$con) { die('Could not connect to DB: ' . mysql_error() ); } mysql_select_db ("mydb", $con); $query = "SELECT Category from Catgories"; $result = mysql_query($query) OR DIE ("There was an error .mysql_error()); while ($line = mysql_fetch_array($result,MYSQL_ASSOC)){ $categoryid = $line["playerid"]; $category = $line["category"]; echo "<option value='$categoryid'>$category</option>\n"; } php?> </select> <input name="" type="submit" value="send" /> </form> </html> and then my add.php Code: [Select] <?php $con = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", ""); if (!$con) { die('Could not connect to DB: ' . mysql_error() ); } mysql_select_db ("mydb", $con); $sql="INSERT INTO movies (title, url) VALUES ('$_POST[title]','$_POST[url]')"; if (!mysql_query($sql,$con)) { die ('Error: ' . mysql_error()); } echo "Record added"; so first things first, although i have tested the code its throwing me a variable error i think on line 30 so i figured that instead of focusing on just the error i should just have everything looked over since i dont have anyone i can turn to about this stuff to make sure i didnt forget any " or { etc.. i am also not sure if the while loop is even needed in form.php, i kind of taylored this code to my own needs. THEN i have the add.php, granted that by some miracle that the form.php is correct i dont know what else i would need to add to it for my dropdown. i really need this bad and i hope someone can help me you know. if anyone has any ideas for a more simple code please, enlighten me but just give me some good examples because i really am a beginner. thanks alot. I have 10 tables in my database. I want load these 10 table names into a drop-down list. If a user selects a value form the drop-down list, a form should be displayed with related to the table. (form fields should be appropriate table's column headers) When user fill the form and submitted, data should be saved in the selected table. Give me a code example to do this. the line : echo $form['catcher_id'] gives me a dropdown list when i choose another item from the dropdown i want to do a few things but my code not working: $selected_catcher = $form['catcher_id']; foreach($selected_catcher as $val) { $catcher_name = $val->getName(); echo $catcher_name." ".$val->getId(); if ($catcher_name = "zed-catcher") { echo $form['service_code']->renderLabel(); echo $form['service_code']->renderError(); echo $form['service_code']; } } please help? thanks Hello there, I'm trying to show a picture based on the value that was chosen in the dropdown menu of the page before the submit. Let's say i'm having a drop down form with 3 values: Porsche, BMW, Audi, the form also consists of a button to submit form and some other text fields but these aren't really relevant. So what i want is, you choose whatever car, let's say BMW, fill in all the other data of the form, hit submit, and on the next page it should show a Picture which i define for each car. I hope i explained that somehow understandable. Thanks in advance, Sabine Hello forum,
So I've been developing an app mostly in PHP, but am rather afraid of JS. Hope to fix that.
I have an AJAX dropdown using JQuery to search locations. It works great. However, I want to make it similar to what is seen on this site:
http://placefinder.com/
As you can see, the dropdown, when clicked populates a box. Then the user submits the form and the data is used in the application.
I have no clue how to make the form populate with data from the DB (I'm using mySQL) when clicked. So far, I've only been able to make it clickable as a URL (not what I want, obvioiusly!)
Is there a way to do this on a really small, simple script for starters? I'm certain their is, but don't even know where to begin.
Any help appreciated
I understand that is might be something that is already answered and I apologize if it is, I could not find it.
What I need to do is build a simple form that has two options, they will be dropdown options. Dropdown A and Dropdown B then a Submit button. This part I understand in HTML, although it may be easier in php or javascript.
Then I need it to take the two options and create a "if/then" statement that loads a specific pdf that matches the two options selected.
Example.
If someone selects Option 1 from Dropdown A and Option 2 From Dropdown B then it loads 12.pdf If someone selects Option 5 from Dropdown A and Option 3 From Dropdown B then it loads 53.pdf If someone selects Option 2 from Dropdown A and Option 1 From Dropdown B then it loads 21.pdf and so on... It does not have to be the exact thing just some way to take both inputs and have it equal a specific pdf. Here is the form I built but I don't know what to put in the form_action.php file in order to make it work <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Untitled Document</title> </head> <body> <center> <h1> Get Directions</h1> <form action="form_action.php" method="get" name="directions" target="_new"> <select name="startpoint" size="1"> <option value="north">North Tower Entrance</option> <option value="south">South Tower Entrance</option> <option value="moba">MOB A Entrance</option></select> -----> <select name="endpoint" size="1"> <option value="onco">Oncology</option> <option value="radio">Radiology</option> <option value="pulm">Pulmanary</option></select> <br /><br /> <input type="submit" value="Submit" /> </form> </center> </body> </html>Any help is appreciated, thanks. hello. i have an issue where the data stored with an image is not saving to a mysql table. the image data is ok, just not the selections from the dropdown lists. here is the code <?php include ('connect.php'); // Insert any new image into database if(isset($_POST['xsubmit']) && $_FILES['imagefile']['name'] != "") { $fileName = $_FILES['imagefile']['name']; $fileSize = $_FILES['imagefile']['size']; $fileType = $_FILES['imagefile']['type']; $content = addslashes (file_get_contents($_FILES['imagefile']['tmp_name'])); $jeweltype = $_POST['jeweltype']; $jewelsize = $_POST['jewelsize_in']; $jewelcolour = $_POST['jewelcolour_in']; $jewelmaterial = $_POST['jewelmaterial_in']; $jewelgender = $_POST['jewelgender_in']; if(!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) { $fileName = addslashes($fileName); } // Checking file size if ($fileSize < 150000) { mysql_query ("INSERT into jewel_images (name,size,type,content,jeweltype,jewelsize,jewelcolour,jewelmaterial,jewelgender) " .

Now i would like to use this selected item in SQL query. The results of this query should be shown in label or text field. So when a user selects item from dropdown menu, results from SQL query are shown at the same time. I have two dropdown list at the moment in my form. First one gets all values from a column in table in SQL Server. And the second one should get a value from the same table based on a selection in first dropdown list.
When i load ajax.php i get 2 error mesages: This is my code so far. I have tried to do it with this Ajax script. But i can only get first dropdown to work. The second dropdown(sub_machinery) does not show values, when first dropdown item is selected. The second dropdown should show values from databse table with this query( *$machineryID* is first dropdown selected item): SELECT MachineID FROM T013 WHERE Machinery=".$machineryID.

I'm dynamically binding a dropdownlist with mysql database . After the user selects an item from it , I want to match that item with another table so as to populate another database. The code I'm using to populate dropdown: Code: [Select] <?php $con = mysql_connect("localhost","root",""); if(!$con) { die ('Can not connect to : '.mysql_error()); } mysql_select_db("ims",$con); $result=mysql_query("select cat_id,cat_name from category"); echo "<select name=cat>"; while($nt=mysql_fetch_array($result)) { echo "<option value=$nt[cat_id]> $nt[cat_name] </option>"; } echo "</select>"; mysql_close($con); ?> Now after the user selects any one of the item , I want to bind another dropdown on the same page using such query like $result=mysql_query("select subcategory.sc_id,subactegory.sc_name from subcategory,category where subcategory.sc_id=$nt[cat_id]"); Please anyone tell me the logic and code to do it. Also tell me do I need an intermediate page to post the 1st dropdown value and then continue with 2nd dropdown. I couldn't figure out the concept anyhow. Help on this will be highly appreiable . (Tell me if I'm not clear with my question) |
