Form Data Array - Need To Update Table
I have a form that is dynamically generated by the fields I have in a table. This table generates the navigation for my site, and I want to create a page that will allow me to reorder and hide/show and activate/deactivate the links. The form is working and I have the form generating an array based on the data collected on submit. I need to know how to break this data apart so I can update my site navigation table with the correct values. The table looks like this:

Update From Form
The file below is supposed to bring up a form with the fields for a user inserted into it for editing. "edit.php?id=83" is an example of the link to it. When that link is clicked the page is empty and the is no code in the source view. <? include("dbinfo.inc.php"); mysql_connect(localhost,$username,$password); @mysql_select_db($database) or die( "Unable to select database"); $query="select from todo where id='".$_GET['id']."'

Form Update
I have a form that sends data to mysql, and you get shown the submitted data. But i also want the users to be able to update their sent info, after thay see what they've sent, to make changes if something was incorrect. I want to make an update feature that will let them do that, but their is no user authentication on these pages, so i want to use php session. I don't know where to start. I want the form data to be saved in the session, so when they go to the update page, their info is still there. I want the session to end after they update.
PHP Form Field Update...
I am sure this has been answered here somewhere, but I have searched for a good 2-3 hours and can't seem to locate a solution. Additionally, I really don't want anyone to solve this mystery for me (at least not all the way!) - But I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction here. I am trying to figure out how to update form field information before the end user hits the submit button - for example, if they select that they are from California from the "state" drop down list, only counties from California would show up in the "county" drop down list. BTW, this is only a hypothetical example - I am only using this code to build a photo manager for my website! Anyone able to: 1) tell me what this process is called - it's hard to search for answers when you don't know what you're looking for. 2) point me in the right direction of a solution.

Form Fields To Update A Webpage
I am trying to build this mini "publishing" system and allows the user to use form fields to update a webpage (images and text) then press a button to email that webpage to a list of emails. (spamming own userbase). I will have a webpage with php code in it and the code will pull data from the db.

Update Page Content From A Form
I want to have a web page that uses variables from a text file as some of its content. I want another page with a form that will allow me to updated/change the variables in the text file. I have no need to add variables using the form only change the values of existing variables. Basically I want to make some content on one of my pages update-able using a form; not entire paragraphs just single words that I have laid out in a table. I have been told that I should just use something like mySQL for this. I do not know if it is necessary since I only want to do it to one page.
Update Form, Security Issue
I have to write secure update record php script, here are the complete details of the website, the website has a login system that authenticates the user, writes the session ID for username and goes on. The user can post, read msg he can also update the msgs that he had posted in the past once he is loged in. when user tries to update the msg, the script check MySql DB with select * from Msg where username = session ID suppose recorset returns msg number 1,3,5,7,9 with that perticular username. I pass the user to a page ...update.php?msg_id=1 and the user can update the stuff. Everything is working fine, Problem what if the user changes the url to ...update.php?msg_id=2 he can still update the record, what to do he has not posted msg id 2. what sort of method or code should i use to restrict him to the msg that he posted If you feel that i am using a bad method or my database structure should have a new field please let me know coz I can still make changes in DB structure as well as my scripts we are in the somewhat initial stage of the development of the product.

Dynamically Generated Form And Update Problems
In brief, in the following 2 portions of code I build a form based on data retrieved from a database. The second bit of code receives the posted data for processing and updating the database. Problem is that the update occurs for the first row of data but none of the rest. I'm using a hidden field, written in dynamically ( name="tfHiddenId<?php echo $j ?>" ) where $j is a counter var in a loop. When I print out the POST_VARS everything is as I want to be, fields all named according ly, as above. Just the update either 1) only does one row and quits or 2) updates same row with the same data over and over ( I suspect the latter ). Apparently my counter variable is not being incremented, but only on one var, "tfHiddenId".$i , on the receiving page. Here's the code for where the form is built from the DB: PHP Code:

How To Update Form Input Field Background Colour On Validation Error
I have been searching for form validation scripts for ages and all th ones that I like are far too complicated and inflexible so I decided to stick with my own which is easier to understand. The only thing I don't like which i have seen on better form validation scripts is that and fields with errors are highlighted. i can only presume that they have used php to set the background color of the input field or textarea. How would I add some code to change the background colour of form elements if an error is found? Here is my code which validates the form but doesn't change form elements colours. Code:
Have To "actions" Or Run Two Types Of Queries (select,and Update) On The Same Form?
I had a brilliant idea on one of my pages that selects some data from my mysql database. I first set the page up to display some info and an image, just one item, with a row of data, etc. then I thought it would be nice to do a select, and perhaps an update (the title of the image) on the same page. I am wondering if I am having the wrong idea. I have a form, with two submit buttons, one selects an image, and some info. the other will update the image title for the given image (id, and p). I am seeing that I have a mistake here, since it seems the update query will run as well as when the select query is run (select button clicked). this overwrites my image titles in the db. I have the wrong idea, but have not seen how to do this "right". I could use another php page for update, but I am guessing this can be done from the same page. Below is my poor code - i am not an expert programmer!!! any help, suggestions will be helpful. <?php $img = $_REQUEST["img"]; $p = $_REQUEST["p"]; echo '<div class="input">'."".'</div>' //connection files for mysql @include 'c:/php/includes/db.inc' @include 'c:/php/includes/error.inc' //***@include '/usr/local/php/include/db.inc' //***@include '/usr/local/php/include/error.inc' //@require_once '/usr/local/php/include/size_image.php'
Php Form And Array
I created the following php form. <FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="prova.php"> <b>Combination</b><br><br> Element 1: <INPUT NAME="el1" TYPE="TEXT"> <BR> Element 2: <INPUT NAME="el2" TYPE="TEXT"> <br> <INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT" VALUE"Submit"> </FORM> <br> Combination<br><br> <?php $combination[] = ($_REQUEST["el1"].$_REQUEST["el2"]); print_r($combination); $combinations[] = $combination; print_r($combinations); ?> When I fill the two text fields of the form in the browser, the inserted text is included in the array $combination and then $combination is included in the array $combinations. When I reload the page, I fill again the two text fields and the new inserted text overwrites the old inserted text. This is a problem. I'd like that the array "combinations" includes both the old inserted text and the new inserted text, but I don't know how to do this.
Form Field To Array
Ok, two questions: 1) I have a mulitple select form field. It is named 'artists[]' and it produces the array artists[$i] correct? now i want to make the array into a single variable named $artists that containes the array in a CSV format with no ending comma. how do i do that? 2) Is it possible to browse for a directory and pass it though a script as text? not a file, just a directory?
Form (Array) Validation
Okay i know i have been going on and on about this but its driving me nuts and i have confused a lot of people so i am going to paste code and comments. Hopefully ill get some help I have been working on these couple of scripts for a while. The first one you enter the number of textfields to create to insert images to the table. That actual field is validated (this works!) then it passes that number to second script which creates and array according to that number it got (this works as well !). Now before being able to submit the data finally (in page 2) i want to make sure that first there are no duplicates the fields are not empty (both dont work !). Some how with both or seperatley validations when i choose to submit i get the "Java Script Prompt" and when i click the OK button on the "prompt window" the page disappears !. Obviously when u (press back button) the fields disappear too since the arrays gone.
Loading An Array Into A Form
I want to load an array of information into a form. It works okay with JS, providing there is only one field of data in the array as soon as there are two I get the error "unterminated string constant".
Using A Array In An Upload Form
I have a drynamic upload form that uses an array as the field name so it's something like image[2] that didn't seem to be working so i switched to something like image2 the problem is when im getting it in i have to see which ones a file so i do something like if(isset($_FILES[image$i])){ } where $i equals the current number. This leads to an error as you might know, and i was just woundering if there was anyone who knew of a better way to do this.
Array Of Form Data
After submitting form data to a page called procform.php, I want to be able to see a list or array of all the inputs that were submitted from the form. I scoured the PHP books I own and did some google searches, but found nothing in this regard. I know I can use $myformvar in procform.php if I know the form had an input like this: <input type=hidden name=myformvar value=190> But, surely, there must be a way to get a list of all the variables assigned from the form in PHP, right?
Remove Form Array
I know there must be a function to do this but I can't seem to find it. If you have an array. array( 'a' => 'Apple', 'b' => 'Blue', 'c' => 'Cat' ) Is there a function to remove 'b' => 'Blue'? Or do I have to take the array apart and rebuild it? I have found functions to remove variable of the end and front of arrays but not one to take one out of the middle. I would have thought there would be one that would allow you to do that if you know the key.
Insert Array From Form
I have been trying for a while to insert an array from a select menu into a table in MYSQL. I tried the serialize function but couldn't get that to work. I have a file in the MYSQL table named type and I want the name of the type the user selects to go into that field. My array part of the form looks like this: <p>Please select a type of incident: <select name="type[]" multiple> <option value="disruptive" SELECTED>Disruptive</option> <option value="accident">Accident</option> <option value="other">Other</option> </select> </p> The script right now is down to this, (I stripped the serialize function that didn't work): // Make the array $type = array('disruptive', 'accident', 'other'); foreach ($type as $key => $value) //Add the type to the incidents table. $query = "INSERT INTO incidents (type) VALUES ('".mysql_escape_string($_POST['type'])."')";

User Submitted Form Into Array
Ok, here is my dilema. I have a very long form, and I want to take the submitted info and place it into an array for later use. The thing is, since I form is so long, I do not want to have to hard code all the textbox names and values into the script. Any ideas on how to process the form in a loop until done? I understand how loops work, but how would I process the form since the textbox names are all different?
Declaring Array In A Form And Getting Its Values
I have this form and I want to store some of the values in arrays. I want a 2 dimensional array. If not possible, 1 will be okay. e.g. $myarray[][]; I want to now use a form and store values in it. Item 1.1: <INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="myarray[0][0]" VALUE" "> Item 1.2: <INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="myarray[0][1]" VALUE" "> Item 2.1: <INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="myarray[1][0]" VALUE" "> Item 2.2: <INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="myarray[1][1]" VALUE" "> etc. Is this possible and what is the best way to implement this. The reason I am doing this is because I want to have an SQL statement that goes in a loop manner Code:
Incrementing Array Of Data From A Form
I'm trying to take a set of data generated by a form (web) which will basically be a set of yes/no data. I need to take that information (it's a poll/survey we're conducting on customer satisfaction) and increment a stored text file with the results. If I have 25 ppl hit the page, 20 say no, 5 say yes (to up to 30 questions), I need to see that in the text file: 30 questions with 2 columns of info and possibly a 3rd column for the few questions that ask "if not, please explain" -- OR if someone has a better way to generate the file.....??

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.

Dynamic JS Form And $_POST Array
I have a form that I am altering after page load with javascript. Basically I have a button that inserts another text field into the form which the user can fill out. Its for a calendar, and I'm allowing them to optionally add multiple days for an event. Each box that is created has the same name with [] on the end to make it an array. When I view the post array with print_r($_POST), only the first textbox's value shows up. This is the only textbox in the form when the page loads. Simplified example: <form name="calform" action="process.php" method="post"> <input name="startday[]" type="text" class="bordered" size="25" /> <input type="button" onclick="add_one_more()" value="Add another date" /> // if the user hits the add button it adds this input field after pageload <input name="startday[]" type="text" class="bordered" size="25" /> </form> And here's what I'd get from that form Array ( [startday] => Array ( [0] => test1 )) A button inside the form basically adds another <input> tag between the <form> tags. Why isn't PHP seeing the data?
HTML Form Field Value And Php Array
I am creating a html form which has 5 html list menu and menu value get store in array after hitting submit button.

Retrieve Array From FORM List Of Values?
I have created a form where a user selects 2 items from a list of 8 values. That form field is called "choices" and returns a value to the php file as $choices. This form posed no problem when I only allowed a single item to be selected, but the client now needs to have 2 items selected at a time. The problem I'm having is that I don't know how to turn the multiple selections on the form in to an array. I thought the $choices variable would automatically become an array, but Using[color=blue] > for ( $i = 0; $i<2; $i++ ) > echo "$choices[$i] ";[/color] only returns the first two letters of the last selected item value. And [color=blue] > foreach($choices as $articles) > echo $articles. ' ' ;[/color] Returns an invalid argument. While echo $choices returns the second item selected in the list, but not the first. It appears that the variable is replacing the first item selected with the second rather than returning an array.
POST (or GET) Associative Array To Script From Form
Actually thought I understood this but I can't seem to make it happen this morning, and I can't seem to find a clear simple reference here. Can I pass an associative array from a form (using either POST or GET) to a .php script all at once, in one simple step? ie. Say I have the following variable/associative array $graphtable = Array ( [TESTPHASE] => G085 [GRADE] => 3 [0_LE_1_A] => 0 [1_LE_1_A] => 7 [2_LE_1_A] => 28 [3_LE_1_A] => 22 [4_LE_1_A] => 7 [null_LE_1_A] => 0 [PROTOCOLS] => 64 ) And I pass it as a hidden variable in the following form: ....
Sorting An Array Based On One Of Many Form Fields?
I think the root of my problem, aside from mental, is array based...but I'm not even sure what I want to do is even possible. So if I can get far enough to know that one way or the other, then I can try to figure out how to do it. But here's the situation: Page 1 I have a form with many item rows pulled from a database query. Among other fields, each row contains a checkbox to select the item and a text field which contains an item_description. On submit, I have it so that every checked item goes onto the next page where more stuff happens to each item, and the select items end up in an HTML table as well as a CSV spreadsheet. Now, because the selected items are pulled from an array based on the checkbox, the sort order is based on the item's unique ID number. WHat I'm being asked is if I can have the final results sorted by that item_description field I mentioned before. Which can occurr at the end of the 2nd page's processing, sure. Well, here's what I have to select the items: .....

Checkbox Array From Form - Shorthand For Looping The VALUES?
I am retreiving values from checkboxes in a form to decide where thumbnails and uploaded images get placed (same image goes in multiple directories). The following code works. But I wonder if there is a shorthand way to output the values in a while statment rather than a bunch of if statements. That is, is there a way to output ALL possible values (e.g., sports, group, 2002 - I have many others) in a loop? PHP Code:
