So I'm working on this page and I have an error somewhere in my code as the page is not being displayed.
The code is fine until line 27 as when I try to load the page both echo statements are executed.
The page also loads fine when I comments out the $results statement which is line 28. I just cant seem to fine whats wrong with it.
Code is posted below:
<?php
session_start();
include 'phpFunctions.php';
$error = "";
//if(!isset($_SESSION["id"]))
//{
// header("Location: http://tylerforaie.com/csproject/login.php");
//}
if(!empty($_POST))
{
$connect = new mysqli("localhost", "username", "password", "dbname");
if ($connect->connect_errno) {
printf("Connect failed: %s\n", $connect->connect_error);
exit();
}
$sql = "INSERT INTO requestOff (employeeId, day, approved, reason) VALUES ('".$_SESSION['id']."', '".$_POST['date']."', 'Pending', '".$_POST['reason']."')";
if (!$connect->query($sql)) {
printf("Errormessage: %s\n", $connect->error);
}
$connect->query($sql);
}
$id = $_SESSION['id'];
echo $id;
$sql = "SELECT * FROM requestedOff where employeeId='".$id."'";
echo $sql;
$result = $connect->query($sql);/*******THIS IS LINE 28********/

So as it turns out I had put the connect function inside the if statement so when the form wasnt being submitted there was no connection to the database. I fixed it by moving the connection function outside of the if
<?php
session_start();
include 'phpFunctions.php';
$error = "";
//if(!isset($_SESSION["id"]))
//{
// header("Location: http://tylerforaie.com/csproject/login.php");
//}
$connect = new mysqli("localhost", "username", "password", "db");
if ($connect->connect_errno) {
printf("Connect failed: %s\n", $connect->connect_error);
exit();
}
if(!empty($_POST))
{
$sql = "INSERT INTO requestOff (employeeId, day, approved, reason) VALUES ('".$_SESSION['id']."', '".$_POST['date']."', 'Pending', '".$_POST['reason']."')";
if (!$connect->query($sql)) {
printf("Errormessage: %s\n", $connect->error);
}
}
$result = $connect->query("SELECT * FROM requestedOff where employeeId='1'");
?>

My current problem is that the Mysql entry is never updated.
This section runs:
header("location: list.php?=".$resname1.$rescity1);
So I know every condition is met correctly
Note: I added this part to know their values when redirected to list.php:
.$resname1.$rescity1
I ran all the code inside a PHP shell and it worked perfectly.
Of course, I had to set the values resname1 and rescity1 manually, so I'm thinking it must be some formatting issue?
I have a page with a contact form.
I'm trying to make some error messages appear next to the fields if the fields are empty/invalid. If all fields are OK the field's contents are sent to a database.
The validation itself works. If the fields are empty or invalid it does not submit them into the database. However no error messages are shown next to the fields.
Here are the codes
Page with the contact form named palaute3.php:
<?php
session_start();
$_SESSION["nimiVirhe"]="";
$_SESSION["spostiVirhe"]="";
$_SESSION["palauteVirhe"]="";
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "username";
$password = "passwd";
$dbname = "dbname";
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
?>

Here is the validation:

$_SESSION["nimi"]=$nimi;

}
}
if (empty($_POST["sposti"])) {
$sposti = $_SESSION["sposti"];
$_SESSION["spostiVirhe"] = " Sähköposti on pakollinen.";
}
else {

$_SESSION["palaute"]=$palaute;

header("Location: yhteystesti.php");
return;
} else {
header("Location: palaute3.php");
return;
}
}
?>
The database insertion works fine so I'm not going to include it here.
Any idea what am I doing wrong here?
PS: This is a school assignment and the teacher tried to make it work but couldn't.
Ath the top of your palaute3.php file you have this
$_SESSION["nimiVirhe"]="";
$_SESSION["spostiVirhe"]="";
$_SESSION["palauteVirhe"]="";
So you re-init your session error messages before using this them.
Those 3 lines should be in the validation page, but not in your error page !
Remove that and it will work.
I have successfully created a form that submits data and a picture of a user into my online folder and the path directory stored in the database.
My question is this how do I get users to see their picture once they are logged in?
Well Guys thanks for everything but still not getting right here is all my code

Instead the above code shows me the pathway in the database i want the actual image to show...thank you
When you store the Image path in the database, there must be a reference (Foreign key or similar) to the corresponding user.
Now, when the user loggs in, you check the table, where your image paths are declared for the specific user:
SELECT imgpath FROM imgpathstable WHERE userid = $loggedInUser["id"]
and then you can display an img tag with:
<?php
echo "<img href='$imgPath' ...
<?php
if(isset($_SESSION['Anyone']))
{
?>
<img src="<?php echo image path ?>"/>
<?php
}
?>

Your issue is that you are echo'ing the message before you supply your HTML.
Which is evident here:
if($result) {
echo "Your name was successfully added to the database!";
}
else{
echo "Your name couldn't be added to the database!";
}
Because PHP is a server-side language and HTML is client-side, the PHP will process well before the HTML, meaning it will echo before the page is displayed. Hence the issue where it is before your <div id="main"></div>.
A way around this is by setting a variable
if($result) {
$var = "Your name was successfully added to the database!";
}
else{
$var = "Your name couldn't be added to the database!";
}
And somewhere in your <div id="main"></div> you could do something like the following:
<div id="main">
<?php
if(isset($var) && !empty($var)) {
echo $var;
}
?>
</div>
I am new to PHP and haven't worked much on it. I am working on a page where I need to save data from a textbox to a table on submit of a button. But somehow nothing seems to be working on press of button click.
Following is my code for the page:
<?php
require_once('auth.php');?>
<?php
if(isset($_POST['formSubmit']))
{
$errorMessage = "";
if(empty($_POST['category'])){
$errorMessage .= "<li>You forgot to enter a Category!</li>";
}
$varCategory = $_POST['category'];
if(empty($errorMessage)) {
require_once('config.php');
$conn = new mysqli(DB_HOST, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD, DB_DATABASE)
or die ('Cannot connect to db');
$result = $conn->query("insert into category (name) values ('".$varCategory."')");
}
}
?>

echo "<select name='id'>";
while ($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
unset($id, $name);
$id = $row['catid'];
$name = $row['name'];
echo '<option value="'.$id.'">'.$name.'</option>';
}
echo "</select>";

Change this
if($_POST['formSubmit'] == "Submit") // this condition will never true
to
if($_POST['formSubmit'] == "Save")
OR
if(isset($_POST['formSubmit']))
Also remove die and exit from here
echo "working"; //die; // your insert query will never execute because you placed die here
$result = $conn->query("insert into category (name) values ('".$varCategory."')");
//exit;
if($_POST['formSubmit'] == "Submit")
should be
if(isset($_POST['formSubmit']))
if you have a connection class named auth.php file with function query() then you can use this:
$sql = "insert into category(name) values('".$varCategory."')";
$conn->query($sql);
