I have a page that is receiving an array from $_GET. Lets say it has 3 values in $_GET['types'] containing: 'good', 'bad', and 'ugly'. Now on this page I am setting up a form and I need to pass this array into the form through an input. Maybe this short piece of code can help demonstrate what I'm trying to do
<form action="dosomething.php" method="get">
<input name="types[]" value="<?php echo $_GET['types']; ?>" />
</form>
How can I accomplish this?
Arrays in string context are simply the literal word Array. You say $_GET['types'] is an array, therefore you're generating this html:
<input ... value="Array">
You should have
<input name="types[]" value="<?php echo implode(',', $_GET['types']); ?>" />
instead.
But note that you'll end up with this html:
<input ... value="foo,bar,baz">
and this in $_GET on the server when the form's submitted:
$_GET['types'] = array(
0 => 'foo,bar,baz'
);
If you want those values as SEPARATE array entries, you'll have to submit multiple input fields:
<input name="types[]" value="foo">
<input name="types[]" value="bar">
etc...
which will give you
$_GET['types'] = array(
0 => 'foo',
1 => 'bar'
etc...

I need to make a text that can be edited by user but in some parts I need to make static text for example the date and ....,how to make it ,plz can anyone help me
I have tried the normal input but it did not work as I expected
you can define editable part in page for each section, after type in input with js concatenation all text in main input, and in submit just pass main text to back-end.
like bellow:
<input type="hidden" name="text" id="main-text-id">
<input class="text-part" type="text">
<input class="text-part" type="text">
<input class="text-part" type="hidden"> <!--static part-->
<input class="text-part" type="text">
<input class="text-part" type="hidden"> <!--static part-->
...
and your script :
<script>
const mainText = document.getElementById('main-text-id');
const inputs = document.querySelectorAll('.text-part');
inputs.forEach(input => {
input.addEventListener('input', () => {
mainText.value = Array.from(inputs).map(input => input.value).join(' ');
});
});
</script>

I have a bit of a problem. I have element with form::input in it. And i want to get lebel text and input value at the same time and pass it to another element as value.
For ex.
<label for="contact">Only contact if the fee is over <input id="jpy" min="0" name="JPY" type="number" value=""> JPY（Include tax）
</label>
What i want to achieve is to pass "Only contact if the fee is over 1000 JPY（Include tax)" as a value to another element.
I know how to get .text() of label element and i know how to get value from input. But i don't know how to get them at the same time in consistent form.
You can use .contents(), but a better approach would be to use label tag correctly:
$('button').on('click', () => {
let contents = $('label').contents()
console.log(contents[0].wholeText + $(contents[1]).val() + contents[2].wholeText)
})
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<label for="contact">Only contact if the fee is over <input id="jpy" min="0" name="JPY" type="number" value=""> JPY（Include tax）
</label>
<button id="button">Get text</button>
$('button').on('click', () => {
var label = $('label[for="contact"]').text();
var input = $('#jpy').val();
console.log(label+' '+input);
});
Hope this works

I am creating a small real estate website, but need some help in search results. my website is in WordPress.
I want this kind of results:- https://www.affordablehousinggurugram.in
my code is
<form role="search" method="get" id="searchform" class="searchform" action="<?php echo esc_url( home_url( '/' ) ); ?>">
<div>
<input value="<?php echo get_search_query(); ?>" name="s" id="<?php echo $unique_id; ?>" type="text" placeholder="<?php echo $houzez_local['blog_search']; ?>">
<button type="submit"></button>
</div>
</form>
This is not a trivial problem, but conceptually you would approach it as follows.
In a text input, call a function every time a user enters a value:
<input class="someClass" id='someId' name='someName' type='text' onkeyup='getProperties(this.value)' >
Where getProperties uses ajax and might look something like this:
function getProperties(value) {
$.post(
"somePHPFile.php",
{query: value},
function (data) {
$(".results").html(data);
}
);
}
This function sends value (the user input) to somePHPFile.php, which returns data and this data is inserted into the HTML element with class results (which is the 'live' results as the user types. As a result, somePHPFile.php needs to contain your call to your database.

How do I Get This HTML 5 Form To Give PHP The Input Data Then Display It On The Screen. I want to collect data in a form. Convert it into a php variable and then echo it out in a way that I can read it.
<form>
First name:<br>
<input type="text" name="name">
</form>
<body>
<pre>
<?php
$taco = htmlspecialchars($_POST["name"]) . '!';
$taco = $_POST;
echo $taco;
?>
</pre>
</body
</html>
How about the following:
<?php
if($_POST) { // check if the page is posted not with a $_GET
foreach($_POST as $field => $value) { // Foreach field
$value = strip_tags($value); // Strip html tags (you can add more)
echo 'Field: '.$field.' has value: '.$value.'<br>'; // output
}
}
?>
<form action="" method="post">
First name: <input type="text" name="first_name">
<input type="submit" value="Display">
</form>
Just put it all in one php file. You can add as many fields as you want.

Kindly explain three multiple text box value want to insert into mysql database
<input type="text" name="name1[]" />
<input type="text" name="name2[]" />
<input type="text" name="name3[]" />
i want post this values via loop and insert into mysql
kindly explain below single foreach loop is possible
foreach($_POST['name'],$_POST['name2'],$_POST['name3'] as $key => $value)
{
INSERT INTO (name1, name2, name3)
}
Ok, I answer the question the way I understand it. Here is an example of something similar in logic:
HTML:
<input type="checkbox" name="some_name[]" value="value1" />
<input type="checkbox" name="some_name[]" value="value2" />
<input type="checkbox" name="some_name[]" value="value3" />
This way you form an array of $_POST['some_name']
And then in php you loop through it and insert the data in a MySQL table with a single column name
foreach($_POST['some_name'] as $name)
{
mysqli_query($link, "INSERT INTO `table` VALUES `name` = '$name'");
}
Of cource this is just a descriptive example of what I consider to be the question (as it is not very clear)
