PHP :: How Can I Get List Of POST Fields In A Second Page?

Creating List Box Using Fields On My Db
Is there a way to add to this by using infomation on my table. Basically my table will have price and type and i want to add those 2 in the list so that it will look like this:

£12,000 - Steel
£12,500 - Wood

And because its a list box the user can then click which ever one and then i can submit it using a form ? ( i can do the form bit) but i cannot do the bit where by it creates the list in the box.. this is the html of the box so far: Code:

POST Blanks Out Form Fields
I have a form that POSTs to itself and validates data entered into the form.
If all is well the form performs a header location command to move to the
next input form in the series. If the user has entered an error within the
form the user is NOT redirected to the next page and error messages are
displayed indicating the fields that are in error. So far so good. The only
problem is that all the input fields are now blanked out after the post.
These fields must display all the values that were inputted before the post
was executed.

I have tried the following to no avail......

reassigning values like this after the post => $zip=$_POST['zip'];

reassigning values like this after the post =>
$fullname=$_SESSION['fullname'];

Utilizing this Meta Tag => <META HTTP-EQUIV="CACHE-CONTROL" CONTENT="CACHE">

How can I keep the data that was entered into the form fields before the
post was executed?

Best Way To Change Values Of Fields Depending On Page Function.
I have at the moment a create_user.php and edit_user.php

they are the same, create has <input type="text" value="" name="xx"> for a field, and edit has <input type="text" value="<?=$row['rowhere']?>" name="xx"> - I would much rather have just the one page where if page function was edit then it calls in the row otherwise leaves value blank. How can I do this other than

if ($pagefunction == "create") {
echo "<input type="text" value="" name="xx">";
}
elseif ($pagefunction == "edit") {
<input type="text" value="<?=$row['rowhere']?>" name="xx">
}

on every field!?

How To Populate Data Into Text Fields On Page Load??
I am creating an account management page that shows the user's contact information and I would like to populate the textfields so that the user doesn't have to type in all his information when he wants to change something. I want to have him type in only the information he wants to change or update.

I already have the data displayed on the page. But now I would like to take the data and fill in the textfields with it.

Creating A Product List Page!!!!
I was able to retrieve information from the database but I get an error message that says "Notice: Undefined variable: SubCatID " and I can`t get my list to display right. I wanted my SmallIMG to be on the right and my and my ProductName to appear right beside it along with the UnitPrice.

Kinda like straight across because I want it to be a link to the individual product page. If I can get help on this part, I can get started on my shopping cart. Code:

Update And/or Post To Web Page
I need to create a form that will:
1.) Open with the current data already in the form fields.
2.) Allow you to update the database from same form.
3.) Allow you to submit to post on a web page that users can see, (but not without being updated FIRST).

The structure of the database is simple. The most complicated part of it, is that it queries to get a "Percent Change" and "Price Change" and gives a choice (checkbox) of what lists it posts in. When "Post" is clicked, it inserts data into checked lists to be displayed. For example: Code:

Page Does Not Respond To POST To Itself
I developed my page at home, on a home server, now I am putting it on the web, I am using a normal post, so that the values will be posted onto itself for testing.

<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="thispage.php">

Is works find at home, but when I put it on the web it does not! What happens: the page appears good, when I click submit, the page goes blank. What should happen is, it should get redirected to next page or show itself. Somthing is not correct, has anyone meet this before?

Post A Variable To The Same Page
I am posting a form onto itself to verify input entry, I can get the value of text box and combo box, but how can I get the value of a “variable” (don’t use cookie or session)? That is if I use

Create A No-scroll List With Page Numbers ?
I have a site that lets users select a list of music based on genre etc. so each list could be made up of different tracks every time (www.makin-trax.co.uk), especially as I'm adding new tracks each month.

I'd really like a way to stop all lists from scrolling, if they are longer than the visible page. I know everyone has a different amount of viewable space on their monitors, so I need a way of restricting the list to a max of about 15 tracks per page, and a way for the user to select which page from that list they'd like to view (eg prev next first last particular page number etc.)

This is a fairly new music site, so at the moment the only list that goes past the bottom of the page is the dance genre but, as I mentioned earlier, I'm adding new tracks so all genres will become too long for a single page at some point.

Clear GET & POST Value On Refresh Page
Hi everyone.

when I fill a form and then submit it , it works right
[address?value=sth]

But I wanna if then form refreshed by user, address changes to
[address] without POST & GET.

POST Form To Dynamic Page Name
I've got a simple form with an HTML OPTION block. I'd like to POST the
form to a page whose name is based on the OPTION they select.

So for example say the user selected this option, I'd like to POST the
form to a page named "memory.php".

echo "<option value="memory">Memory Utilization</option>";

Getting A Form To Post To A Specific Page
How do i get it so that a form can be submitted and have the information post directly to a page that i can specify without having to use a database. I just want a direct post that inserts the new information at the top of a page already created. Basically so every time the form is filled out a new piece of information is above the last.

Back Button, Page Expired, GET And POST
I have read you can solve the back button problem with the page expiration by using GET method instead of POST. When I use the GET method with form data, it doesn't work.

I have a page with a dropdown submitting to a page getting the variable via POST. Then it links to another page, and I want them to be able to come back to the second page. When I use GET instead of POST I get an error.

Is There A Function That Can Find Out What Page A POST/GET Request Came From?...
Is there a function that can stop people from posting from a form that is off the server? So it will ONLY allow people to post from a certain page?

Parsing Info From Other Page (method POST)
- i want to get some info from the page XYZ to my page. XYZ page has a FORM where you can select DAY, MONTH, YEAR and you get the info about a day you selected.

- now, if i want to grab the info from let's say 20. august 2002 my url will look like this: http://XYZ/file.php?day=20&month=8&year=2002.

- THE PROBLEM is, their form has the POST method, which means, if i want to direct link the 20 august, it will bring me to the FORM page and not to DATE page.

is there any ways to bypass this?? I REALLY NEED THAT INFO?!

How To Pass Current POST Data To Next Page ?
I got 2 php pages, called A.php and B.php.

A.php will display all the selected records to the user and ask for confirmation before any attempt to delete. Let say the user click on the submit button, the action of the form is pointed to B.php.

So my problem is, how can I pass all the current POST data in A.php to B.php as well ?
I need that cauz the POST data in A.php contains the data needed like ID, to perform the deletion.

I can manually write a VBScript to transfer the existing data into a query string and transfer it to the next page. However, it's not a POST data in nature. It wil become GET data right ? So what should I do ?

GET / POST Conflict In A Multi-page Form.
Wonder if anyone can help with this problem:

I am using an app with several pages, using a session to track vars
between the pages, and using an image map to re-direct back and
forwards between the pages.

The way I redirect is when the image map is clicked on, it posts to a
page called 'control.php' which passes the POST vars to the
corresponding SESSION variables, then redirects to another page, based
upon the co-ords of where the image map was clicked upon.

I have added text links at the bottom of the page:

i.e.

<--- previous page

----> next page

but because the image map POSTs the data to 'control.php', I can't
really add a GET query string to the link at the bottom of the page,
because nothing will be POSTed.

....But then again, I can't add a POST link to the HREF, because it
won't pass the co-ords, and I can't add a special variable to identify
the link to the control form -i.e. control.php?link=3 (as I could with
a GET) and re-direct accordingly.

So, after hours of thinking about this, I'm stumped.

The only idea I have is to hack the image map up into smaller pieces,
add ALT tags to each one, and make do with it - or add NEXT and
PREVIOUS submit images at the bottom of the page too.

If I make do one with large image map, it is no use to someone who is
visually impaired and relies on ALT wordings.

Is there any possible way to achieve what I am trying to do ?

How Does One Send A Large String As A POST To Another Web Page?
If I've a big string and I want to send it to another web page as a GET
request, I just use file(). I've done this often.

But what command do I use when I want to send the same string as a POST
request?

How To Post The Data From A Form To A Web Page Of Other Site
I WANT TO POST THE INFORMATION FROM MY FORM AFTER TAKING INPUT FROM THE USERS TO A WEBPAGE( PAYMENT PROCESSING SITE) WITHOUT VISTING THAT PAGE. I MEAN THE WEBPAGE SHOULD NOT BE DIRECTED TO THAT WEBPAGE(PAYMENT PROCESSING SITE). THE RECEPIENT WEBPAGE (payment processing page) RECEIVES THE INFORMATION THROUGH "GET" METHOD OF THE FORM. SO WE CAN USE "GET" METHOD IN OUR FORM.

Multiple Page Generation Based On Post-length
Ok, first I'd like to apologize if this has been covered before, but I couldn't find it via the search options and it's been a long time since I've been here.

I'll give you a summary of what I'm trying to do, and you all can point me in the best direction on how to go about it!

I'm trying to design an online article posting section, where the members can post articles about things. The problem that arises imediately, is post length. What if someone posts a "3 page" article by word-processing-program standards, and then outputted this to the website? It would be a really long page and if the page was setup with a specific UI size design in mind, it would blow this apart.

I'm sure you can understand what I mean.

So, I need to be able to get the post's length, figure out how many pages I'll need to break that length up, then break it apart for output to the screen in segments with links for next page continuing the article.

Now, the post's length isn't hard, (strlen) and figuring out how many pages isn't that hard, dividing the post's length by the desired amount of characters wanted in the UI.

The part I'm stumped on is breaking apart the post into many peices that break at 'spaces' not in the middle of words, and that continue where the last one left off, not leaving any words out.

If this has already been covered, or someone knows of another site that has it, please post it!
If someone knows of a really simple way to do this, by all means, dazzle me!

Passing Variables In Frame Page By Post Method
Is it possible to send variables by post method through a submit button to a frames page, and have all 3 pages in the frame pick up the variable using the $_request[var] ?In other words, I click on a submit button. in form action method call index.php the index page has a top, main, and a left frame.how do i get each one of those to receive the variable, when i can only sendit to one page? or is it possible to send it to more than one page, but only action to one page?

How Redirect A User To Another Page And Send Some Variable With The Post Method?

My Code:

Dynamic Form Fields/multiple Page Form?
It is for a friends out of print booksite, where visitors can request multiple books to be searched by adding one at a time to a cart (javascript), then once all added they submit to another form where they enter their personal details and all is sent through. The problem is at the moment they cannot change whats in the cart without refreshing the browser window and losing everything.

1) present for asking how many books they want to search for
2) display multiple rows of the same input fields depending on how many books they say they want to have searched for?i.e

title|author|publisher|etc
title|author|publisher|etc
title|author|publisher|etc

3) when these are submitted they could see these above the next part of the form where they enter their details with the option to go back and delete/amend.
4) send all the info to my colleague.

if so has anyone seen a similar script that I could take a look @ to see if I can hack it to suit my needs?

Simulate Send Data With POST And Get Data From A Web Page (whith A Session)
I'd like to get text of a webpageB that I reach by putting
a login and a password in a webpageA.

I mean:
I'd like to get text of a WebPageB with a php script.
But before I can see WebPageB I have to autenticate myself
in a WebPageA writing my login and my password in a form,
the host recognise me and (by session) let me see the WebPageB.

The question is:
1)how to simulate send data (login an password) in form with a PHP script?
2)how to navigate in a Web usin the same session?

List Contents Of A Folder, Make List Of Links
Does anyone know how I can write a script that:

- reads in all the files in a particular directory
- displays the file names in a html list and makes a link of them:
<ul>
<li><a href="filelocation1">filename 1</li>
<li><a href="filelocation2">filename 1</li>
<li><a href="filelocation3">filename 1</li>
</ul>

etc.?

So basically it creates a list of links with the contents in that directory,
so you can download them from there.

Get List Of Messages From One Table, Message List Indicator From
I have two tables. One has a list of messages left by users using fields named mbxno for the mailbox and msgno for the message number. I have another table that has mailbox settings for each user that contains a field named "messagelist" to indicate if they want to be included on the message list or not.

What I'm trying to create is a list of the most-recent messages with a lookup on the users table to indicate whether a message in the list should be included in the message list based on the user's mailbox settings.

SELECT messages.msgno, messages.mbxno, users.messagelist FROM messages, users WHERE (users.messagelist = Ƈ') ORDER BY msgno DESC LIMIT 100

What I'm getting, though is a list that looks like this:

mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1

I think what's happening is that I'm using the wrong type of join and more rows are being created than necessary.

If I add "DISTINCT" to the query, I get a list of the most-recent messages as I expect, but the "messsagelist" value is sometimes wrong (again, probably because the data is getting jumbled). For example, the messagelist value for the second row (2214) should be 0, not 1.

mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 2214 msgno: 0412141622 msglist: 1
mbxno: 2189 msgno: 0412141408 msglist: 1
mbxno: 0000 msgno: 0412141213 msglist: 1
mbxno: 0003 msgno: 0412141213 msglist: 1
mbxno: 2265 msgno: 0412132029 msglist: 1
mbxno: 0000 msgno: 0412131950 msglist: 1

How should I be doing this? If nothing else, what kind of join will work with a long list compared to a value from a short list?

Populating A List Box Or A Dropdown List Using Php And Odbc

Mailing List Manager, Send To List
I'm looking for a mailing list script (php) that has a function to let
users to reach out to all recipient on the list by simple send the
email to a specific maillist- address.

Mailman has this functionn but as a just got a webserver account I
can't use mailman nor install it.

Post And Redirect With Post Data
The solution we have though up is the following:

1. The user fills in data in a form and hits submit
- This submits (POST) to another page (redirect.php)
2. redirect.php adds more POST data to POST and then submits all this POST data to another page (offsite [payment portal])

The reason why we have to do this is for someone who knows our to read html source code, could easily find the sucessful page which will then do the processing we need to do on our side. Which means freebeis.

Calling A Post Script From A Post Script; Curl Works But ...
I am trying to call a php script B from script A.

However, when I do this with curl everything works fine except the url of the script is the url of script A. How can I make the URL the URL of script B.

Is this possible with curl?

PHP Post, Then HTML Post?
Using PHP, I want to POST or GET some variables to a second php page.
This, I already know how to do.

However, on the second php page, I want to use a simple, standard HTML
form using the standard form-submitting method such as:

<form action="https://orderpage.ic3.com/hop/orderform.jsp"
method="post">

whereupon both sets of variables --- the earlier variables that were
POSTed or GETted to the second page, along with the standard form
variables derived within the second page --- will be POSTed to the
above URL.

In the second page, might I actually translate the received variables
into actual HTML code? For instance, if my first page POSTed the
variable xyz to the second page, then might the following code on the
second page receive that variable and then include it when the second
page's "Submit" button is pressed?

<? $xyz=$_POST['xyz']; ?>
<INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="xyz" value="<?=$_POST['xyz']?>" >

Or how, otherwise, might this be done?

Fields

How To Delete Fields
I would delete with php, all record of a table mysql where the seven left chars of the field is equal to the data in input($seven_chars).

mysql_query ("DELETE FROM my_table WHERE substr(myfield,0,7)=$seven_chars");

Getting Specific Fields From A CSV
I've been using fgetcsv to populate an HTML table with CSV data and so far it has been working great. But now I'm looking to call specific data from the table (ie: row 3, column 5), and I'm not sure fgetcsv can be used for this. Every online example of its use involves getting all the CSV data from a file as my table has done.

What function should I use to get specific fields from my CSV? My table doesn't use unique ids, at least not like mysql, with a unique number identifying each row in the leftmost column. What then should I use to identify each row from which I'd like to get data?

I'm making a page that describes a person based on the query string and the information in the database, in which each person has a row. So example.com/example.php?christopher+walken would bring up a page where Walken's information is listed. So I guess the ideal way to do what I want is to query the CSV for the name in the query string (Christopher Walken), then get and print the other information in the row (tall, great guy, etc). Any suggestions on this query?

How To Get The Fields From A Table
Because the fields i make in the table are very subject to change and i want to know them without to have written in the php code. So i want to know all fields names from a table in a mysql database.

Spacing In Fields
I have a posting system for news, the admin types in what news he wants to post on his page via an admin section and another script out puts his comments from a database. My problem is as follows, if someone types a post and adds a space in it how to I get php to recognise this as a <BR> or whatever, e.g :

intended post :

"news blah blah etc

regards . . ."

but this is what I get "news blah blah etc regards . . ." as if the whole thing were one line, does anyone know a little trick for this ?

Lookup Fields
What would the code look like to do the following?
Say you were working with customer and order tables. You are entering a
new order, and key in the customer id in the orders table. Or even choose
from a dropdown. Now say you have several other fields about that customer
that you want filled in from the customer table, ie name, address, phone,
etc... Once that customerid is entered and a tab key is hit, how do you
have the other fields looked up and auto filled in in code?
Please be basic here, I am new to php programming. But the auto fill in is
wat I am trying to learn. By the way, I'm not looking for a short list type
of thing, assume the customer table has several thousand records. Ive
heard of doing thing this with ajax. Ok how? I have no idea how the code
would look. So far I'm only up to a simple flat file database. I'm trying
to learn more now. Please see this for a more detailed description of what
I'm after. http://www.codecomments.com/archive...5-9-623448.html

Search Across Two Fields?
Say i have two fields, first name an surname There is a person:

First Name = David
Surname = Jones

Could I make a search which would find this person whether David was entered or Jones was entered. i.e. what you put in the one search box would check both fields to see if this record was there. Also, say I search david Jones on the form, and it searches the first word from First Name and the second word form surname.

Query Used Over Two Fields...
Is it possible to make a query to find a field using another field of a table without using any user ID. Because basically i have:

House table
country Table

in country table i have "cityID" and in house table i have "cityID" so what i wanted to do was call up a variable as: $Country by using CityID in house table and searching that cityID in country table to find the country name and put it to "$Country"

can this be done using a query.. im only used to using queries using sessions of user ID this is the first time it wont use a session...

Passing Fields
I got a problem with passing parameters, and hope for some help. The problem is as below: I got a website, and would like to pass a field from one page to another. So forexample, if this is how the url will look like when someone comes into the site:

www.mysite.com?id=xxx

Then, there is a coding on the site:
$id = $_GET["id"];

and this allows me to get the id parameter and store it for use, so that on links in that page, I can just put:

www.mysite.com/linkpage2.php?id=<?echo $id ?>

and this will allow me to pass the id=xxx onto another page.

Now the problem is this. If suppose someone came and for some reason, the id=xxx field is missing. So their url will look like www.mysite.com. Now the $id = $_GET["id"] will give an empty field, and when someone hovers over the link, it will just show www.mysite.com/linkpage2.php?id= . Is there anyway to code it so that if $id is empty, as in this case, then it will automatically fill $id=noid or something similar, so that if someone hovers over the link, it will show www.mysite.com/linkpage2.php?id=noid . I tried putting this line in:

if ($id == "") {id == "noid";}

but it doesn't work. When hovering over the link, it still shows www.mysite.com/linkpage2.php?id= .
