all. I've been trying to integrate Google's reCAPTCHA, and seem to be failing when trying to echo recaptcha_get_html. It comes up with an undefined function error. I've looked everywhere and can't seem to get a straight answer. I'm semi-good with PHP, and don't fully understand everything. Can someone please explain how I can find the missing function. So my question is, is there a need to echo this function?. Here's my code:
<form class="" action="verify.php" method="post">
<input type="text" name="email" value=" enter email address" onFocus="if(this.value==' enter email address')this.value='';" style="height:18px; width:218px; color: #cccccc; border: 1 solid #000000; background-color: #5e5e5e; font: xx-small Verdana">
<br><br>
<?php
require_once('recaptchalib.php');
$publickey = "// Public Key";
echo recaptcha_get_html($publickey);
?>
<br>
<input type="submit" id="sendform" name='send' value=" send " style="cursor: hand; height:18px; border: 1 solid #000000; background-color:#5e5e5e; color: #cccccc; font: xx-small Verdana; font-weight:bold">
</form>
Thanks in advance.
Ok, first of all, no you do not need to echo that function!
As J-H meantioned, you might first want to update to the lastest version of recaptcha.
Here is how I implemented google recaptcha in php
$secret = "Your secret key";
$reCaptcha = new ReCaptcha($secret);
if ($_POST["g-recaptcha-response"]) {
$response = $reCaptcha->verifyResponse (
$_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"], $_POST["g-recaptcha-response"]);
}
if(!($response != null && $response->success)) ...
//it was successfully
Notice how I do not echo anything. Also, the public key should be in the html, the private key should be in the PHP. The public key should not be in the PHP, I do not know if that was a typo but that could also be another problem. Finally, it looks as though you are not using the html correctly for the google recaptcha api, atleast the new one.
Include <script src='https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api.js'></script>
in your header and <div style="margin:10px auto 0 auto; width:330px" class="g-recaptcha" data-sitekey="YOUR_SITE_KEY"></div>
where you want the recaptcha to appear. Then you will have it all working. Cheers
It seems that you are working with the Version 1.0 which is no longer supported:

Simply lost... I have been looking online for the answer but I cannot see why my code won't post to the MySQL database I have on the WAMP server is have installed locally?
also it doesn't echo the results when I'm trying to test if it is getting anything from the form.
here is my code its a simple form using php to insert it into the database.
the database table has ID (Auto Increment), Fname, Lname, Barcode.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<TITLE>Testing Barcode Reader</TITLE>
<style type="text/css">
#body {margin: 0px; }
#pageTop {
height: 90px;
background: grey;
padding: 10px;
}
#pageMiddle {
padding: 20px;
height: 250px;
}
#pageBottom {
padding: 20px;
height: 90px;
}
</style>
<?php
if (isset($_POST['submit'])){
$f = $_POST['fname'];
$l = $_POST['Lname'];
$b = $_POST['barcode'];
$db_conx = mysqli_connect('localhost', 'root', 'password');
mysqli_select_db($db_conx,'barcode_test');
$sql = "INSERT INTO barcode (Fname, Lname, Barcode) VALUES ('$f','$l','$b')";
$query = mysqli_query($db_conx, $sql);
}
?>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<div id="pageTop">

<div id="pageMiddle">

<div>Barcode:</div>
<input name="barcode" type="text" /></br></br>
<div>Submit Button:</div>
<input name="submit" type="submit" value="Submit"/>
</form>
</div>
</div>
<div id="pageBottom">form for testing barcode reader inputs into mysql database</div>
<?php echo($f);
?>
</BODY>
</HTML>
thanks for any advice you can offer because I'm beginning to believe there is a problem with my WAMP server setup, because even if I copy and paste a simple form from the internet with the database connection settings setup it still wont post or echo?
Is php even working on your server? The best way to test this is by making a file with this code and this code only in it:
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
If the above doesn't work php isn't working correctly on your server.
Also check if you are going to the site by using localhost/filename.php or something similar.
I am very new to html and php and need a little help. This is actually my first post on stackoverflow so I apologize if the content isn't done right.
I am asking for a username and password from a user and then I want to take that information and use it in a script that is run on the server via PHP.
The problem I'm having is that the first time a user goes to the html and fills out the form, the $_POST in the php file doesn't receive anything. I know that because I echoed the variables in the php file. But after the user presses the 'Back' button on the php page and returns back to the html, when going through it again, everything works fine.
So the code works, it just doesn't work the first time. Any ideas?
HTML:
<body>
<div class="loader" id="container" style="visibility:hidden;"></div>
<form method="post" action="Login_Page.php">
<b>Username:</b><input type="text" placeholder="University ID" name="userid" autofocus/>
<b>Password:</b><input type="password" placeholder="Password" name="pswrd"/>
<input type="submit" class="button" value="Submit" onclick="showDiv()"/>
</form>
</div>
</body>
CSS:
.loader {
position: fixed;
left: 0px;
top: 0px;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
z-index: 9999;
background: url('https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1247/2733/t/4/assets/loading.gif?11916921113420493983') 50% 50% no-repeat rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.3);
filter: alpha(opacity=60);
}
Script:
<script type="text/javascript">
showDiv = function() {
document.getElementById("container").style.visibility="visible";
}
</script>
PHP:
<?php
$username = $_POST["userid"];
$pswrd = $_POST["pswrd"];
echo $username;
echo $pswrd;
$cmd = "path/to/script.sh $username $pswrd";
exec($cmd, $output, $return);
if ($return != "0") {
echo '<h1><b>Login was unsuccessful. Please try again.</b></h1>';
echo '<form>';
echo '<input type="button" value="Back" onClick="history.go(-1);return true;"/>';
echo '</form>';
} else {
echo '<h1><b>Login was Successful.</b></h1>';
}
?>
Could be the same problem as there: Onclick javascript stops form submit in Chrome.
It's caused by your onclick function at form submit.
So it ended up being a security certificate issue. I was trying to open up my website on an iPad and I didn't have the correct security certificate download on the iPad. This might sound weird but it has been consistently working after I did that. Thank you, everyone, for all of your helpful comments and assistance.
I am a customer service assistant and I wanted to make a simple form to check the price of products on the webpage, without having to load the whole homepage.
The website is www.homebase.co.uk, and the search URL is http://www.homebase.co.uk/en/homebaseuk/searchterm/.
I want to make a form where it will add the text entered in the form after /searchterm/ without the question mark.
EG if I type in 775199 and press submit/search it will navigate to http://www.homebase.co.uk/en/homebaseuk/searchterm/775199.
Thanks so much for your help all :)
I really appreciate it!
Assuming you are using PHP. I think what you want to do is this:
<?php
//THIS IS THE SAME PAGE WHERE YOUR SEARCH FORM EXISTS
$searchPage = "http://www.homebase.co.uk/en/homebaseuk/searchterm/";
$formAction = "./"; //FORM IS SUBMITTED BACK TO ITSELF...
if(isset($_POST['search_term']){
//BUILD THE REDIRECTION LINK BASED ON THE DEFAULT SEARCH PAGE: $searchPage . $_POST['search_term'])
//AND THEN REDIRECT TO THE REDIRECTION LINK
header("location: " . $searchPage . htmlspecialchars(trim($_POST['search_term'])) );
exit;
}
Your HTML Form might look something like this:
<form method="POST" action="<?php echo $formAction; ?>" >
<input type="text" name="search_term" id="search_term" value="" class="search_term" />
<input type="submit" name"submit" id="submit" class="submit" value="Search" />
</form>
Okay, so I solved the problem:
<style type="text/css">
.biga {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 36px;
color: #F90;
background-color: #FFF;
border: medium solid #000;
}
}
.centerpoint {
text-align: center;
}
</style>
<title>Product Search</title>
<p>
<div class="centerpoint"> <span class="centerpoint">
<input name="prog_site" type="text" class="biga" id="prog_site" value="" />
<a href="http://"
onclick="this.href=(
'http://www.homebase.co.uk/en/homebaseuk/searchterm/' + document.getElementById('prog_site').value)"
target="_blank">
<input name="so_link" type="button" class="biga" value="Search Product">
</a>
</p>
</span></div>
This is the code I used. Thanks for all of your help!
I have a relatively simple sounding question that hopefully entails a simple answer. I am currently developing a website that is a scroll-down type; everything is on one page, you know the one. My 'contact' section is at the very bottom of the page, and I am of course doing form validation with PHP. The validation part works, I have no trouble with that. However, if validation fails, the browser takes me back all the way back to the top of the page; this is inconvenient for obvious reasons.
I am aware of the 'header()' function, which I can use to keep me at the bottom of the page if an error occurs. As an example, at the top of my HTML page before the DOCTYPE, I can write:
if ($errors) {
header(Location: 'somelocation.php#contact');
}
This works, but for some reason it prevents my PHP embedded in my html to work. If some errors occur, I want to display them using PHP on the page:
<h2>Contact</h2>
<?php if($errors) { ?>
<p class="warning">Please fix the errors</p>
<?php } ?>
'Please fix the errors' does not appear. It does appear however, if I remove the header function from the page, so I know the problem is related. So basically, if I remove the header() function, the page goes back to the top, and the errors show; if I keep the header() function, the page correctly stays where it is, but no errors show.
Alternatively, this question also can be asked in the case of, what happens when the form is validated correctly, the 'header' function is called, and I want to stay at the bottom of the page and display some HTML saying 'Thanks, your form has been submitted'? (I don't want to go to a 'thank-you' page or anything, just stay in the same spot and give a 'thanks' on the page) I assume I'd run into the same problem. Is there a solution to this?
Thanks in advance!
Specifying a location in the header will cause the browser to redirect to that URI. This is being called before any output is sent to the browser.
When the page is reset, $errors == false, so the paragraph isn't displayed.
It sounds like you need to integrate AJAX, or a mixture of server- and client-side code here.
A very simple and efficient way to validation of a form is using jquery, A perfect example of this:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://jzaefferer.github.com/jquery-validation/jquery.validate.js"></script>
<style type="text/css">
* { font-family: Verdana; font-size: 96%; }
label { width: 10em; float: left; }
label.error { float: none; color: red; padding-left: .5em; vertical-align: top; }
p { clear: both; }
.submit { margin-left: 12em; }
em { font-weight: bold; padding-right: 1em; vertical-align: top; }
</style>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#commentForm").validate();
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form class="cmxform" id="commentForm" method="get" action="">
<fieldset>
<legend>A simple comment form with submit validation and default messages</legend>
<p>
<label for="cname">Name</label>
<em>*</em><input id="cname" name="name" size="25" class="required" minlength="2" />
</p>
<p>
<label for="cemail">E-Mail</label>
<em>*</em><input id="cemail" name="email" size="25" class="required email" />
</p>
<p>
<label for="curl">URL</label>
<em> </em><input id="curl" name="url" size="25" class="url" value="" />
</p>
<p>
<label for="ccomment">Your comment</label>
<em>*</em><textarea id="ccomment" name="comment" cols="22" class="required"></textarea>
</p>
<p>
<input class="submit" type="submit" value="Submit"/>
</p>
</fieldset>
</form>
</body>
</html>
Happy Coding.!!!
I am trying to incorporate an invisible CAPTCHA into my contact form, however I am not sure if it works.
My code is as follows...
HTML
<span class="test-field"><label for="test">Please leave blank</label>
<input type="text" name="test" id="test"/></span>
CSS
.test-field {Display: none}
PHP
<?php
if($_POST["test"]!=""){
header("Location: {$_SERVER[HTTP_REFERER]}");exit;
}
// Get Data
$f_name = strip_tags($_POST['f_name']);
$f_email = strip_tags($_POST['f_email']);
$f_message = strip_tags($_POST['f_msg']);
// Send Message
mail( "me#website.com", "Website Contact",
"Name: $f_name\nEmail: $f_email\nMessage: $f_message\n",
"From: My Website" );
?>
To test it, I did a few tests changing the...
f($_POST["test"]!="")
...to...
f($_POST["test"]="")
My PHP is not very good, but I am guessing this should not send the form through if the field is blank, but it does come through. Is there anything wrong with my PHP?
Thanks in advance.
As far as your specific question it doesn't make any sense. A user CAPTCHA is absolutely useless if it's hidden.
The term CAPTCHA stands for ...
Completely Automatic Public Turing Test to Tell Computers and Humans Apart
Notice it says humans ...
How can we test for human interaction if they can't see the CAPTCHA challenge? You Can't. Never-the-less .... here's a quick mock up of your code ... the CAPTCHA I left out since it make no sense. Take it from here ...
<?php
if ($_POST['test'] == "") {
header("Location: {$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']}");
} else {
// Get Data
$f_name = strip_tags($_POST['f_name']);
$f_email = strip_tags($_POST['f_email']);
$f_message = strip_tags($_POST['f_msg']);
}
?>
