Variables Not Passed From Url Or Form To Page
I use a Mac at home running OSX 10.2, and use the Apache PHP MySQL trio for developing and testing sites. I've had very good experiences with this setup and have had no major problems till now.
I noticed recently that variables added to the end of the url (the get method, ...url/page.php?var=value) are not passed to the script within the page. Forms using either the get or post method have the same problem. For example, a page named "foobar.php" containing this: Code:

Eliminating Passed URL Variables For Multiple Listings On A Page
I have a page with a list of several users, each hyperlinked to another page of 'more info' about that user. The hyperlink contains the UserNumber, UserRegion, and UserStatus, and the receiving page picks up the data in the passed URL. This works well, but I'd like to eliminate the passing of these variables in the URL. One way is to make a graphic ('More Info') that can be clicked to submit a form. Each 'More info' graphic from the dynamically created page could hold the UserNumber, but how can I pass several variables with a single click? On some pages, there can be 100+ users, and I hate to have 100+ separate forms and hidden fields. I thought of using session variables, how can I know which user was clicked to set the session variables?

PHP Not Populating Form Variables Passed Through POST Or GET
I"m running: Windows Xp SP2 Apache2 PHP5 MySQL4 Everything seems fine and dandy, and I can do scripting on server side, but for some reason I cannot get data from a form to be put into a variable. I have a simple form in an html page which submits, and in the php script that handles the input, none of the data in the form is going into the variables. My php.ini file does have all the GPC's in place(ie variable_order, the way they get processed).

Form Processing - Get The Target Page To Process The Form Variables
I have a form embeded in a html page. The form comprises of 3 inputs (2 <select>, and a submit button). The action is set to a php page. What I am trying to achieve: I would like to be able to get the target page (php page) to process the form variables in 'if.. else' statements and direct the visitor to the relevant page which contains the information that has answers for their queries. Example: variable1=="small" (entered from a <select> input) Variable2=="truck" (entered from a <select> input) this info is submitted to process.php I would like 'process.php' to combine the 2 variables and send the visitor to a page called: small_trucks.htm or small_trcuks.php (either extension will do). Note that the final pages the visitor to be directed to are unique pages and need to be displayed in the form of pages and not IFrames. If you are familiar with this, would you kindly create a code for the above example..? and would you also be able to tell me where to insert that code in the php page..?

URL Passed Variables
I've written an application that passes variables back and forth through the URL as the user bounces between pages. We decided that we want to "hide" what those variables are, so the user can't arbitrarily change them to make things happen that shouldn't. So, we've encrypted the variable string. Instead of seeing: index.php?startDate=2001-01-01&endDate=2002-01-01&building=1 They instead see: index.php?1e826a92f309b8271c0091e7a8d92839af3b1b918 This works great, however, if they manually enter: index.php?startDate=2001-01-01&endDate=2002-01-01&building=1 It still works, which is bad. I'm currently accessing the encrypted string with $_SERVER['argv'][0]. Register Globals is OFF. I guess I need a way to ignore every variable passed EXCEPT argv[0], or somehow unset argv[] after I check argv[0] to see if it is decryptable. I guess I could rename the variables, but they could still pass them through the URL if they discover the name somehow.

Session Variables Use The Passed SessionID?
I found quite a few docs on the web that talk about this problem. However, none of them have solved the issue for me. <? session_start(); $_session['mysession'] = "hello"; header ("Location: newpage.php"); exit(); ?> in newpage.php the session variable will not be set. I found another doc that said to try this header("Location: newpage.php?PHPSESSID=".sessionÂ_id()); I haven't tried it yet. Do I have to do any additional code in newpage.php to use the passed sessionID?

Keeping The Variables From Form To New Page
On a web page that I am working on there is a lead generator on the left side that asks for the persons name, phone number and email address. Currently when someone fills in that information and clicks "continue" it will send an e-mail as well as inputs that data into mySQL database. What I want it to do is just that but then take the person to a continued form asking more questions, but without them having to re-fill in their name/phone/email. Basically this "continued form" can be accessed seperately, so it cannot be something where the continued form only works once someone fills out the mini form on the left side of any page on the site. Code:

Problem With Form, Variables, And Refreshing The Page
I use php 4 and mysql. I am quite new to php. I have looked high and low for a solution to this problem. It has to do with my lack of understanding of variables, I think. I have created a simple php file that has a form at the bottom where the user can enter data that will update the page he is on. When the user click the submit button the data is copied into the table and the web page shows the new record along with the others, as it should. However, if the user later refreshes the web page, the data in the last form is entered again into the table. To prevent this I have tried something like this: if($fname!="") { $fdatetime = date('Y-m-d h:i:s'); if(mysql_query("INSERT INTO comments(fname, femail, fcomment, fdatetime) VALUES('$fname','$femail','$fcomment', '$fdatetime')")) { $fname =""; } else { echo "could not insert the data, sorry!"; } } I thought $fname =""; in conjunction with if($fname!="") would solve the problem, but no such luck. The elements in the form are named fname. femail, fcomment. One more question, instead of echo "could not insert the data, sorry!"; I would rather like to post a message in a messagebox of some sort. Is that possible

Make A Button That Would Pass The Form Variables To Other Page
here's some code that's at the top of my page, a form later in the page posts the variables back to the same document and then updates the database. How do I make the page so that when the form is submitted it posts the info to the same page and then passes the same variables that were just put into the database to a page named view.php? or another way that would work was if there was a preview button next to the submit button that passed the variables, but the form action is set to PHP_SELF, so how would I make a button that would pass the form variables to view.php and not to itself?

Need Code To Find Last Page, And Passing All Form Variables
I need to be able to make some sort of php function to pull up the last page viewed so I can pass form varaibles to it etc, so the javascript function go.history(-1) wont work for this situation. After diving thru the php function dictionary for hours on end I'm at a loss for where to look, or what to look for. Also I was wondering if anyone knew an easy way to pass all form variables on to the next page rather than forwarding each manualy. This isn't all that important, but would make the code more efficiant.

POST Variables - Strings Passed Back From A Credit Card Processor
I'm having real trouble making sense of strings passed back from a credit card processor to my site via <input> tags. the customer buys more than one product, I get the following in the passback: Code: <input type="hidden" name="product_id" value="2" /> <input type="hidden" name="product_id1" value="1" /> <input type="hidden" name="quantity" value="5" /> <input type="hidden" name="quantity1" value="3" /> and so on. I need to match 'quantity1' to 'product_id1' etc. and then input them into the MySQL database into a table called 'orders'. Each product order gets its own row, but is linked by the client_id. I have set up the following 'foreach' loop, PHP Code: foreach($_POST as $key => $value) { $title = preg_replace('/[^a-z,A-Z]/','',$key); $str = "$title[0]$title[1]$title[2]$title[3]$title[4]$title[5]$title[6]$title[7]$title[8]";.

Hitting Back, Form Info Not Passed On

Now, if I hit back on a browser after opening one form page up already and click on a new link, say &order=18 the form will load blank without anything filled in, so basically it seems like it didn't connect to the database or didn't make use of the order=18. I call upon these using a GET method. Here's something that me be of issue, the form is filled in if this condition is met: if ($_GET['firstTime']='YES' && $_SESSION['second']!= 'true')

Form Variables To Session Variables
I am writing a small script that consists of two pages: page one displays a bunch of values from a DB (ie. First Name, Last Name, Phone Number). On this page you will find a form that follows this format: <input type="text" name="edit_firstname" size="20" maxlength="35" value='Bob'> <input type="text" name="edit_lastname" size="20" maxlength="35" value='Smith'> <input type="text" name="edit_phone" size="20" maxlength="35" value='5552222'> So when you see the page there will already be a 'default' value in each line (which is information extracted from a DB). This works perfectly and has been tested thoroughly. On the second page I have the following code: $editfirstname = $_POST['edit_firstname']; $editlastname = $_POST['edit_lastname']; $editphone = $_POST['edit_phone']; What I am trying to do is this: the default value for edit_firstname from the form is 'Bob' by default, but the user can change this in the input field on the first page. This value, whether changed or unchanged, should then be stored as edit_firstname and by calling up the function $_POST[''] on the second page I want to transfer the value to the variable $editfirstname. However, it seems that $_POST['edit_firstname'] and the other fields do not return a value at all, hence $editfirstname = '' or $editfirstname = 'NULL'. I have never tried to do things this way before.

Passing Variables From A Page To An ASP Page?
I have a site using a PHP CMS and I need it to use an ASP module from another site but I would like to use a frame so it looks like it is still in the same site. I need to pass a username variable from a form in in the PHP webspace (where the domain is pointing) to a page in an ASP webspace (using a subdomain not related to the main domain). I created a frame page in the php hosting with a 1px top frame and the main frame pointing to the asp page but of course the variable is not being passed.....if I put the ASP connection code on the frameset page it doesn't recognize it because the hosting is a Unix/PHP hosting only. My question to you is: Can a variable be passed from the php to the ASP webspace using some other technique? I just need to have the ASP module showing as if it is in the PHP.

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?

Getting Variables From One Page To Another Without Globals
I have this problem getting one variable from one page to another. I don't want to use globals since they arent very good i've heard. (this is how i've done it in the past) Now, i thought of doing a form post from every page and posting everything forward but it seems silly, also, i don't think i want to store all the information i used to keep as globals as cookies, it seems to me to be just as insecure. This must be a common thing to do in php and so i'm kind of wondering how to get it to that other place? Is there some kind of special way to put it there?

Passing The Variables To More Than One Page

Now....'page_two.php' has header function before any html that is either skipped or executed based on the user selection. If it doesn't come to header everything is fine, but if it does - header redirects 'page_two.php' to 'page_three.php'. Now, I want to be able to view all the selected variables in 'page_one.php' in my php code in 'page_three.php'.
