Create A Form In HTML And A PHP Page For Validating The Data Entered Into The Form
I've tried to create a form in HTML and a PHP page for validating the data entered into the form and adding them into a MySQL database.
However, when i tried them out, it happens that after i press the submit button in the HTML page, it just show a blank page instead of what i expect. I've tried several times, but it is still the same and i don't know what is going wrong. Code:

Create A Data Entry HTML Form For Given Table
I am working on a simple web site updating utility for a web site. Rather than hard code the data entry forms, I would like to automactically generate them based upon the table a user selects to update or insert into. What is the best way to approach this? for "insert" should I use the MySQL DESCRIBE table command and build a form element for each field according to its data type? for "update" should I use the DESCRIBE command to build the form as above and SELECT statement to populate each element with data, or should I just use a SELECT statement to retrieve the data and use php to determine the field type and choose an appropriate form element?

Form Script - Create The Landing Page In Html With Tags
A form that people will enter their info, and when the submit it, they will land on a page that shows the info they submitted for them to double check that it is the correct info before they confirm the submission. I have an idea that I could create the landing page in html with tags like [firstname] and [address], and have the script replace those tags with the matching field data from the form. I just can't figure out HOW to do it. Sorry if I'm rather incoherent. just spent a long night attempting to figure this out. I'm feeling very, VERY Dense, even with my very limited PHP knowledge.

Validating Form Input Data
I am tying to come up with an elegant way to process some input data that come from a form. When the user hits the 'Submit' button, i want the form to appear again with the already entered valid data filled in and prompt the user to re-enter the non-valid data. If all data is valid, i will forward to an other .php page which enters the data into a database. I tried to do this in the following way: the form always hits back on itself, but when all data is valid i use the PHP:header() to redirect to the data.php that performs the database insertion. The problem is that the data is not available to data.php in the $_POST variable. How can i overcome this problem? Any other subtle way to handle the whole thing?

Using Includes: Html Form Parse Data Inside 2nd Form.
i'm coming down the stretch, so to speak. i've got a lot of the separate things settled that i need for my main "date entry" form. due to the several data items which need to be collected by this form, i've decided to try using includes, which i've found isn't that tricky at all really. however, one of my includes needs itself to parse it's own little form data to result in the final entry to be submitted in the "date entry" form. perhaps doing this particular bit as an "include" is NOT the best option?

Capture PHP Form Data As One Page Html, Screen Capture, Or PDF?
There is a medical office that has a detailed online patient form. When they receive the form data, it is split into 4 to 5 pages. Their online form is one detailed page. Their IT person thinks that they should be able to get their form data as a screen capture--basically a picture of the form filled in--ONE PAGE. Is this possible at all? I've never heard of this. If this is possible, is their software that does this that one can buy?

PHP To Create PDF With Form Data?
Is it at all possible to create a PDF file using input that is entered from a form?

I know it sounds like a lot, but it's just a thought. Is this remotely workable? If so, where do I start? I'm creating such a form now, but i'm not sure the steps to take after this..

Create A Form That Contains Multiple Lines For The Same Data
I need to create a form that contains multiple lines for the same data....an array looks like the answer. My form: Date Name Title Phone ==================================== _____ ________ _________ ________ My first though was to have variables: date, name, title, phone, date1, name1, title1, date1, date2,name2,title2,phone2,date3,name3,title3,date3 etc so that I can have 10 "lines" for the user to enter this data into. Some will enter 1 line, others all 10. So far, my clunky methods work....however trying to decide how many lines they have filled out led me to thinking "perhaps I should use an array instead". This data is submitted to a database (mysql on linux) and I am not sure if even that will work. My question is HOW can I build a form that contains 4 fields that could be repeated across numerous lines....then put it all into a db for retrieval later?

I can find lots of tutorials on how to insert records but none on the logic behind it. Can anyone point me in the direction of a tutorial. What I'm trying to understand is the how the form submits the page (to where I'm not sure) and then executes the form handling. I'm using Dreamweaver to create the insert form, if that is of any consequence.

Using Html Form Data
I'm trying to send and receive data interactively to an html form and am having trouble processing the returned data. The idea is as follows: - Retrieve records from a SQL DB and populate an array to send four of the fields from each record to an html table. - As each row of the html table is built (using a loop) it includes a checkbox field (used temporarily, and not for return to the SQL DB) so the user can select one or more of the displayed records. My problem is getting the record ids of the selected rows (checked boxes) back to my php processor so I can use the selections to populate a new array. I can't seem to grab and use any of the data from the checked rows. In the end, I need the record ID and road name fields for later use. Code:

Using A Php Html Form With Data Which Is Loaded From A Mysql Database.
I am using a php html form with data which is loaded from a mysql database. Three of the fields are textareas. The data loads into these fields fine, except that the loaded text starts at what appears to be 2 or 3 tab characters to the left. See illustration: +---------<this is a textarea object>---------+ | This is about the way that| |the text loads from the database field. | | | | | +---------------------------------------------+ It's almost as if there's a textarea "align" property which is set to "center" by default unless otherwise explicitly stated. Is there some setting in the wrap property that will fix this, or should I be looking elsewhere?

PHP Form Processing With URL Parameters And Forwarding To HTML Page
I felt this query would be relevant to HTML and PHP forums. I am currently modifying a PHP IMAP script which allows the user to view their email via a web browser. I have made use of URL parameters which are passed to the webserver, and processed by the PHP code (better than javascript). No problems so far :) When I have reached a point where I no longer need these parameters, I use PHP header/location forward to reload the HTML form page. If my page was http://www.mysite.com/ foo.html and I was forwarding** to this specific URL (without any ***?myval=????&anotherVal params). When I reload the form**, I keep my URL parameters that were present*** the previous time the form was processed (they are there in the URL_REFERRER). Can someone tell me how to lose the parameters, so I just forward to foo.html. :)

Self-validating Form
so after much searching, and thinking, and pondering and planning, i came up with this most amazing thing, and then realized one major flaw which i was hoping you guys might help me overcome. first, we have the magic form. <?php function input($label,$name,$type,$min=0) { return "<div class='".($min?($_POST['submit']&&strlen($_POST[$name])<$min?'error':'required'):'optional')."'>".($_POST['submit'] && strlen($_POST[$name])<$min ? (empty($_POST[$name]) ? '<span>Required.</span>' : '<span>Too short.</span>') : '')."<label for='$name'>$label</label><input type='$type' class='$type' name='$name' id='$name' value='".stripslashes(htmlspecialchars($_POST[$name],ENT_QUOTES))."' /></div> "; } ?> <form method='post' action='<?=$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']?>'> <fieldset><legend>Registration Information</legend> <?=input('Username','user', 'text', 3)?> <?=input('Password','pass', 'password', 6)?> <?=input('Confirm password','pass2', 'password', 6)?> </fieldset> <fieldset><legend>Profile Information</legend> <?=input('Personal e-mail','email', 'text')?> <?=input('MSN messenger','msnm', 'text')?> </fieldset> <input type='submit' class='submit' name='submit' id='submit' value='Submit'> </form> it creates a pretty little form, with labels and names and id's for styling to your heart's content, and better yet, you can add a "minimum length" parameter, and when you hit submit it'll spit out a little error if you screwed something up. now this is very nice and all, but it occured to me that if a user does actually manage to fill in a simple form.. it won't be until after the form re-rendered that I will be able to determine that there were no errors, since it does the error checking and form-creation at the same time.
