I have a project (index.php) that is essentially a HTML webpage. I am trying to use an 'include' function to bring in the header and footer (header.php, footer.php). I'm also trying to have the current date automatically load in a textbox. While I believe the syntax for all of these are correct, no actual PHP statements seem to execute or get recognized. I discovered this by adding a simple echo statement to the page.
Can anyone give me advice? I'm at a loss.
HTML Input Value for date:
<p><label>Order Date:</label> <input value="<?php echo date('m/d/Y'); ?>" maxlength="20" size="10" name="txtOrderDate" type="text" pattern="\d{1,2}/\d{2}/\d{4}" required/></p>
Statements used for header/footer (difference obviously being file name, referenced first and last line of index.php):
<?php include '../view/header.php'; ?>`
Header.php:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<!-- header -->
<head>
<title>Order Form</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../view/main.css" />
</title>
</head>
Footer.php:
<div id="footer">
<p>
© <?php echo date("Y"); ?> Ordering Form
</p>
</div>
</body>
Index.php
(the beginning/end got broken up a bit, but I think everything is there)

As a reminder, none of the PHP statements execute on screen.
Thanks for the input thus far.
One thing to add is the webpage loads and operates just fine except the header/footer are not included (therefore no CSS either) and the date does not load in the textbox. Beyond those two things, it's golden.
ANSWERS TO COMMENTS:
Using XAMPP and Notepad++

Not sure what is meant by the verbatim comment. When I view the source code from the page it is exactly as written in my text editor?
<?php $today = date("m.d.y"); ?>
<p><label>Order Date:</label> <input value="<?php echo $today; ?>" name="txtOrderDate" type="date"></p>
try like this
2nd
make new php file (time.php) copy code from here to it run it on your pc
<?php
$today = date("m.d.y"); // 03.10.01
echo = $today;
?>
is that work?
I think that beater solution is to use date picker for this u will not have problem in future how user use date m.d.y m/d/y and so on.
and if possible can u share all code?
Solved! I copied the text from 'index.php', deleted the file, and pasted it onto a new sheet. The textbox value loads today's date and the header/footer were successfully displayed.
Thank you all for the replies and ideas. Greatly appreciated!

I am trying to create a dynamic HTML form where the fields displayed are based on inputs in the field above it. So far, I have only found resources that work in JS but I was wondering if there was a pure PHP way to do it.
To give some context: I would like to create a form for a user to set their goal. The 'How Much' and 'programme duration' fields are dependent on the 'goal type' field. Ie. if They choose a muscle building goal then it will only show 5% etc. Here is my code so far...
Much appreciated in advanced!

Good morning,
I’m trying to display a div containing a form using PHP. I’m not using JavaScript because my teacher has told me to use PHP instead. I have two buttons and I’m using isset to determine which one is clicked. The functions execute and echo the correct identifying text, (“This is form X”), but the actual forms don’t display.
Initially, in CSS, the forms are displayed like so:
.parent .copyarea #formHELP {
display: none;
}
.parent .copyarea #formFEEDBACK {
display: none;
}
In HTML, they are the same. Class parent. Class copyarea. ID formFEEDBACK and formHELP. In PHP, this is the function I’m using:
<?php
echo "<h1> Hello PHP. </h1>";
if(isset($_GET['formHELPbutton'])) {
echo "Hello Form Help.";
echo "<div id='formHELP' style='display: block'>";
}
if(isset($_GET['formFEEDBACKbutton'])) {
echo "Hello Form Feedback.";
echo "<div id='formFEEDBACK' style='display: block'>";
}
?>
And like I mentioned, I"m getting the “Hello Form X”, so the function is working, but my echo div line is off somehow.
Please advise?
Thank you!
Edit: This is the entire content of the PHP echo statement, with the div inside:
if(isset($_GET['formHELPbutton'])) {
echo "Hello Form Help.";
echo '

Your Div elements needs a opening div tag( like you already have) but you are missing the closing one. Also if a div has no content, it won't have any width or height, so you won't see anything, you can test the code below, just added some color to the background so you can see the div.
`
if(isset($_GET['formHELPbutton'])) {
echo 'Hello Form Help.';
echo '<div id="formHELP" style="display:block; width:500px; height:500px; background-color:red">test form help </div>';
}
if(isset($_GET['formFEEDBACKbutton'])) {
echo 'Hello Form Feedback.';
echo '<div id="formFEEDBACK" style="display:block; width:500px; height:500px; background-color:red"> test form feedback </div>';
}
`
<div id="formHELP" style="display:block; width:500px; height:500px; background-color:red">test form help </div>
I have created a form entry web page to store the data entered to a local database . The only problem is that after the submit button is clicked on the form it goes to another file named "info1.php" to store the data in the local database , in that file it also validates if the entered data is valid for example the email . If the data is invalid it refreshes the page to the form entry site or web page "home.php"
It would be much better the same user does not have to enter the whole thing again from the start , But instead the same value previously entered still resides in the web page (ie) form Thanks in Advance guys :-)
The form code is :

As RiggsFolly said in the comments, you could use the SESSION to keep the values, to use a SESSION variable, you have to open the session at the beginning of each file where you'll use it.
Basically, on your form page : ( you should ofc check if the $_SESSION['input_value'] var exists )
<?php session_start();
if(!isset($_SESSION['input_value']) {
$_SESSION['input_value'] = "Default value for this input";
}
?>
some code ...
<input value='<?php echo $_SESSION['input_value']; ?>'>
on your form treatment page :
<?php session_start();
some code ...
$_SESSION['input_value'] = $_POST['input_value']; // ( or $_GET['input_value'] )
?>

Syntax error is apparently on this line according to Dreamweaver and the error was present from early on when writing the code and moved to the to the newer span class when a new one was added:
<span class="errorFeedback errorSpan phoneTypeError"
id="phonetypeError">Please choose an option</span>
<br />
<input type="submit" id="submit" name="submit">
</fieldset>
</div>
</form>
</body>
When I attempt to view this page in a web browsers it suggests that there are issues with the last line:
</html>
I have looked for errors but came seem to find any clear ones!
Hope I'm not being stupid
You are using this twice
<span class="errorFeedback errorSpan" id="password1Error">Password required</span>
Remove one instance of that....
Secondly , you forgot to close a brace for your if. Close it like this
<?php
if (isset($_SESSION['error']) && isset($_SESSION['formAttempt'])) {
unset($_SESSION['formAttempt']);
print "Errors encountered<br />\n";
foreach ($_SESSION['error'] as $error) {
print $error . "<br />\n";
} //end foreach
}//<----- Add here
?>
add last brackets in your php code. because you use if statement and foreach..
<?php
if() {
//enter code here
foreach() {
//enter code here
}
}
?>
You're missing the closing bracket of your IF statement:
<?php
if (isset($_SESSION['error']) && isset($_SESSION['formAttempt'])) {
unset($_SESSION['formAttempt']);
print "Errors encountered<br />\n";
foreach ($_SESSION['error'] as $error) {
print $error . "<br />\n";
} //end foreach
} // <-- MISSING
?>
I have created a form on our website for an online submission of claims for our work. I have two pages associated with the form. I have a back end .php page with a thank you for submission and the code to POST an e-mail to our business address. When the form is filled out, and then submitted, we are not recieving an e-mail. I am pretty new to coding and this is my first attempt at creating a form. I thought I had the necessary code and .php to do this. I would really appreciate any input on how to make this form come through in an e-mail. My form page appears as such:

remove the ; from

here
because I think this following statement is executed every time as that semicolon make the following line independent of that if statement
die("Changed field");
I haven't checked the code in detail, but the most likely problem is that the server is not set up to send mail.
Check
a) php settings for mail (you can do this by running phpinfo(); but usually these are set up correctly out of the box.
b) Check server mail application is installed and configured, eg Exim, Sendmail, etc.
Setting up a server to send (but not receive) mail is fairly easy. Eg on a Debian server you would run something like
sudo apt-get install exim4
And then follow instructions to configure it to send mail.
A few things to check:
Is your mail server properly configured?
Can you send test email successfully?
Do you have any other control in place to test whether the infrastructure overall works, rather than just the one script that is not currently working?
Also consider using a library such as PHPMailer (http://phpmailer.worxware.com/). It offers much more flexibility when it comes to configuring your mail server.
At your if statement:
if($_POST['trojan'] != '');
die("Changed field");
Should be:
if($_POST['trojan'] != ''){
die("Changed field");
}
