PHP - Form Reset On Change
Hi all
I have a filter system on a website I am creating and there are three forms each sends a value to the url using get. 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 Similar TutorialsHi 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 My 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.

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. 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'm totally green when it comes to php, but am learning it the hard way. Any help is appreciated.
I have a form the currenty uses a custom taxonomy but it has a text field, and I want it to call and list the taxonomy items with checkboxes so instead of entering words the visitor can just multiple check off the taxonomies that relate to them.
It's a job board, this is the job skill part that relates to their expertise.
There is a job category in the form, and I tried to use the syntax to get the taxonomy and implode it but
I really don't know what I'm doing.
See the "skills" item? I want to make that a bunch of checkboxes to allow selection the the pre defined resume_skills taxonomy.

Any help would be great, and I'm not sure what code I need to put in here.

I tried to unset the session and start it again but this didn't work. I have an app that connects to a source safe server to perform a command via shell_exec(). I had used exec(), but shell_exec seems to work better since I am on Linux. The command connects to the server and tells it to promote a file to the next level. On Windows this ran without a hitch, but on Linux I gat an error that reads: Quote Socket error when reading request from [172.20.22.1]: 3537808 ; Socket closed. I am told that the reason for this error is that PHP broke the connection to the server before the server completed the job and was able to shutdown properly. The only way I have found around this is to place a sleep(3) to the script. This is really not ideal since that means that there is at least 3 seconds between each command, which can really extend the time it takes to perform if there are numerous files. If PHP breaks the connection before the program can close it will leave the program open and PHP cannot perform any more commands to the server since it is stuck on the last command. If too many are given the machine will lock up due to resources being eaten up. I'm wanting to know if there is a way to tell PHP to not let go of a connection so quickly. I tried "nohup", but that does not help. I am new to Linux and am at a loss of what my options are beyond the sleep() method. I really feel that there has to be a better way or setting that can be manipulated to fix this issue altogether. Thanks in advance for any help. Cy i have two drop down lists in a form and some text fields and then the SUBMIT and RESET button...when i click my first dropdown the values are populated in the second dropdown by ajax call. the problem i face is when i click on the reset button the values in the textfields and my first dropdown get reset to default value.but the value in the second drop down does not reset to the default value i have given instead it still has the value of the ajax call....any ideas to sort it out? Hi, I have a php password reset script that is not updating the database, or there is some other reason the new password reset is giving me a "wrong password" error on trying to use it. Any help Greatly appreciated! Thank you. Code: [Select] <?php define('IN_SCRIPT', true); // Start a session session_start(); ini_set ("display_errors", "1"); error_reporting(E_ALL); $host = " "; $database = " "; $username = " ; $password = " "; $tbl_name = " "; $conn = mysql_connect($host, $username, $password) or die("Could not connect: " . mysql_error()); if($conn) { mysql_select_db($database); echo "connected to database!!"; } else { echo "failed to select database"; } //this function will display error messages in alert boxes, used for login forms so if a field is invalid it will still keep the info //use error('foobar'); function error($msg) { ?> <html> <head> <script language="JavaScript"> <!-- alert("<?=$msg?>"); history.back(); //--> </script> </head> <body> </body> </html> <? exit; } //This functions checks and makes sure the email address that is being added to database is valid in format. function check_email_address($email) { // First, we check that there's one @ symbol, and that the lengths are right if (!ereg("^[^@]{1,64}@[^@]{1,255}$", $email)) { // Email invalid because wrong number of characters in one section, or wrong number of @ symbols. return false; } // Split it into sections to make life easier $email_array = explode("@", $email); $local_array = explode(".", $email_array[0]); for ($i = 0; $i < sizeof($local_array); $i++) { if (!ereg("^(([A-Za-z0-9!#$%&'*+/=?^_`{|}~-][A-Za-z0-9!#$%&'*+/=?^_`{|}~\.-]{0,63})|(\"[^(\\|\")]{0,62}\"))$", $local_array[$i])) { return false; } } if (!ereg("^\[?[0-9\.]+\]?$", $email_array[1])) { // Check if domain is IP. If not, it should be valid domain name $domain_array = explode(".", $email_array[1]); if (sizeof($domain_array) < 2) { return false; // Not enough parts to domain } for ($i = 0; $i < sizeof($domain_array); $i++) { if (!ereg("^(([A-Za-z0-9][A-Za-z0-9-]{0,61}[A-Za-z0-9])|([A-Za-z0-9]+))$", $domain_array[$i])) { return false; } } } return true; } if (isset($_POST['submit'])) { if ($_POST['forgotpassword']=='') { error('Please Fill in Email.'); } if(get_magic_quotes_gpc()) { $forgotpassword = htmlspecialchars(stripslashes($_POST['forgotpassword'])); } else { $forgotpassword = htmlspecialchars($_POST['forgotpassword']); } //Make sure it's a valid email address, last thing we want is some sort of exploit! if (!check_email_address($_POST['forgotpassword'])) { error('Email Not Valid - Must be in format of name@domain.tld'); } // Lets see if the email exists $sql = "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM users WHERE email = '$forgotpassword'"; $result = mysql_query($sql)or die('Could not find member: ' . mysql_error()); if (!mysql_result($result,0,0)>0) { error('Email Not Found!'); } //Generate a RANDOM MD5 Hash for a password $random_password=md5(uniqid(rand())); //Take the first 8 digits and use them as the password we intend to email the user $emailpassword=substr($random_password, 0, 8); //Encrypt $emailpassword in MD5 format for the database $newpassword = md5($emailpassword); // Make a safe query $query = sprintf("UPDATE `users` SET `password` = '%s' WHERE `email` = '$forgotpassword'", mysql_real_escape_string($newpassword)); mysql_query($query)or die('Could not update members: ' . mysql_error()); //Email out the infromation $site_name = "MYSITECOM"; $site_email = "noreply@MYSITE.COM"; $subject = "Your New Password"; $message = "Your new password is as follows: ---------------------------- Password: $emailpassword ---------------------------- Please make note this information has been encrypted into our database This email was automatically generated."; if(!mail($forgotpassword, $subject, $message, "FROM: $site_name <$site_email>")){ die ("Sending Email Failed, Please Contact Site Admin! ($site_email)"); }else{ error('New Password Sent!.'); } } else { ?> <form name="forgotpasswordform" action="" method="post"> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3" width="100%"> <caption> <div>Forgot Password</div> </caption> <tr> <td>Email Address:</td> <td><input name="forgotpassword" type="text" value="" id="forgotpassword" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" class="footer"><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" class="mainoption" /></td> </tr> </table> </form> <? } ?> What would be a good way to reset a password ?
I was thinking
1 user requests reset password page or after faulty login suggest reset password page
2 fill in email address
3 check if email address exists
4 if address exist insert a random key into database
5 create a password reset url with random key and send to registered email address
6 after user clicks url in mail use $_GET to retrieve random key from password reset url
7 check if url exists in database
8 let user choose new password
9 check that password strenght is valid
10 encrypt password
11 write password in db
12 confirm page that password has been changed
Are there any obvious mistakes in this logic ?
This application will be aimed at 70-80 years old people so it has to be as easy to use as possible.
security questions and captcha's will be not really possible I am afraid.
thank you very much

Please check your junk folder.'; }} }else{$errors[] = 'Email did not match Username'; $thanks = 'Email could not be sent.';} } I have a session variable called $_SESSION['patchurl'] in a php file , if i get in to an else statement this session variable gets set and i go to http://yyy page. below is the snippet of the code
<?php
session_start();
?>
<?php
echo '<script type="text/javascript">' . "\n";
if(isset($_SESSION["Email"])){
echo 'window.location="http://www.xxx";';
}
else{
$_SESSION['patchurl'] = "true";
echo 'window.location="http://yyy";';
}
echo '</script>';?>
once the patchurl session variable is set i call a php file which sets an other session variable called $_SESSION["Email"]. now what happens is the $_SESSION['patchurl'] is gone and ONLY the $_SESSION["Email"] is accessible ...can i not set two session variables? why does creating a new session varible overwrites an other one even though they are called different ? am i doing something wrong ?
