How To Create A Hidden Field Variable From An Echoed PHP Figure?
I have a PHP script on a shopping cart summary page that creates an invoice number and then echoes it to the page. This page, when submitted, will go to the shopping cart processor. The echo portion of the script is working properly, it generates the number as intended. My problem is that, not being very experienced in PHP, I want the invoice number not only echoed (which it is doing properly now), but also to populate a value in a hidden field that is submitted to the shopping cart processing page. My question is how do I populate the hidden field with the figure that is now being echoed in the script below? The script that generates and echoes the invoice number is as follows: <?php echo "SA"; //department code echo date ("mdy"); //date generator // begin counter this reads figure from "count_file.txt" if (file_exists('count_file.txt')) { $fil = fopen('count_file.txt', r); $dat = fread($fil, filesize('count_file.txt')); echo $dat+1; fclose($fil); $fil = fopen('count_file.txt', w); fwrite($fil, $dat+1); } else { $fil = fopen('count_file.txt', w); fwrite($fil, 1); echo Ƈ' fclose($fil); } // end counter ?> The hidden field is as follows: <input name="Invoice_Num" type="hidden" id="Invoice_Num" value=" "> I would like the value in the above to reflect the invoice number that is echoed by the above PHP script.

HTML Echoed Out
Does anyone have any idea why when I echo HTML it doesn't parse the HTML but outputs the code? I even added two <h2> tags manually and it works, so it's just from pulling it out of the database. PHP Code: <?php //The <h2>s work fine but the array variable being outputted doesn't parse the HTML echo "<h2>".$profile['biography']."</h2>"; ?>

HTML Echoed
I have the notion that everything is more secure if everything is in php, and nothing is in html. Perhaps I am mistaken in my understanding. But, because I believe that everything would be more secure in php, I am trying to take an html form, and find a way to ECHO it in php. It is an example form that I found in google. It works just fine as HTML, and it is a submit to a php script which will receive the data through $POST. But, I am trying to build all the HTML in $form and then echo it. I am not having much success. Code:

Echoed The MySQL Query
I'm currently building a time booking system, and what I have done is created a few tables in my database and populated these with some test data. The problem I'm having is that I know for a fact that when I click on the 1st Sept for example the first couple of time slots have been taken,so for a test I've used the word 'booked', this works, if the time slot is not taken then it should say 'available', this doesn't do it. I have echoed the MySQL query and I've test this on the MySQL console and it works, but yet it says 'booked' when its really not.

Saving Result Of Function Without Being Echoed
I am trying to save the function "rand(1, 1000000)" in a variable but when I am for example trying: $randomnumber = rand(1, 1000000); it is executing it right ahead while when i try $randomnumber = "rand(1, 1000000)"; or $randomnumber = 'rand(1, 1000000)' It is saving rand(1, 1000000) as variable. But what I need is a variable saving the result of rand(1, 1000000) so the number does not change either. Any ideas how I would do this?

Variable Extracted Out Of One Form Not There Anymore After Submitting Another Form
in short what I'm trying to do: pass a variable from a form that's posted to a certain page, to the same page. The variable is extracted with $_REQUEST. Next, another form in the same page is submitted, again to the same page. Following that, I have code depending on the submission of the latter form. In that code, I try to do something with the variable that has been submitted with the first form, but it's not there anymore. I tried passing it to another variable beforehand, making it a session variable, making the $_REQUEST conditional, etc etc. But nomatter what I do, it remains empty. What's the correct way to go about this?

Form Variable Encryption

I just don't want my users to see the password they just typed in in the URL. An illusion of security is all I need. The site doesn't provide content that needs to be secure, so no big deal. First of all don't say use POST, that was one fo the first things i tried, and I got the lovely message that my server doesn't support POST data. I know....very strange, but never-the-less that's the way things are. Is there a way to take the data that was entered on the form and when the submit button is hit, encrypt or hide the data so that it doesn't appear in the URL?

The problem is, I have my root directory defined in a variable on every page (i.e. $root_path = "./../../../"; for example) and I want the form to pick this up. At the moent, if I paste something like.... <img src="". $root_path . "features/news/images/dartvador.jpg"> into the form, it just prints the $root_path variable as "$root_path". How can I get it to replce it? It works fine if I just define it as a seperate variable (i.e. not from the form).

-> How To Read A Form Variable Before Posting? <-
is there a way to read the content of a form variable before a POST? I have a form with a "duplicate" button which opens a new form with most of the fields filled with the values of the calling one. To do so, I pass the id of the form to be duplicated. Example: - I have a form with "Number = 1234567" in a "numform" edit field. - Duplicate has a href=/duplicateform.php?id=1234567 - then the "duplicateform.php" reads id with a GET['id'] This is easy as I come from a displayed form that retrieves its values via a SQL statement and with a specific "number" reference. Now, once I am in this new form, I have a save button to save all values, including the new "Number" the user would type in, say "22222222". The save process works correctly via AJAX and saves the record using a POST action. But then, I still have my "duplicate" button which should now point to href=/duplicateform.php?id=22222222 How can I get this 22222222 value from within the form itself? I have to get it from the "numform" field, but how can I do this? it would be something like href=/duplicateform.php?id=<?=[value_of_field_number]?> with value_of_field_number being the actual value of that edit field.

Alter Array Variable In A Form
I have recently found the need to create a page in php that displays, in this case, and list of items that someone is ordering, along with quantities. The initial entry page is simple and straightforward enough, except when it comes to passing all the data to post processing (i.e. the php program). The form would consist of multiple lines.. each with a sku, a description, a quantity and a price for example. Obviously the ideal situation is to somehow pass an array such as $order[$i]['column'] where $i represents each line on the form, and 'column' is the actual field. But I havent found a way to do this. I have been able to code around it, by having the user choose an item one at a time. But, then, I am faced with the same issue later when I present the customer his order, and want to allow him to change the quantity before checkout, or delete a line. If you have tackled this problem and have been successful, please respond with your ideas, or just a simple reference to a good source that I could see an example would be fine.

Submit Form With Variable For Action?
So, i've got a form that is very simple. It hold three elements: username, password, and domain. The goal here is to have the form submit the login to an administrative section depending on which domain someone has chosen.

So, the form itself needs to have a dynamic action element. Here's an example: Code: <form action="http://www.mysite.com/admin/index.php" method="post" name="login" id="login" > <input name="usrname" type="text"> <input name="pass" type="password"> <input name="domain" type="text"> <input name="submit" type="submit" value="Login"> </form>
