This is my code. I'm trying to print the comments on my site. The query and everything works since I tried it in an empty project but here it doesn't echo. The comments update in the database but they just don't show. What am I missing?
<h1>Leave a comment below!</h1>
<?php
$find_comments = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM comments");
if ($find_comments) {
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($find_comments)) {
$comment_name = $row['name'];
$comment = $row['comment'];
echo "<p>'$comment_name' - '$comment'</p>";
}
}
if(isset($_GET['error'])) {
echo "<p>100 per limit";
}
?>
<form action="post_comments.php" method="post">
<p>Your Name: </p>
<input type="text" name="name" size="40" maxlength="30" placeholder="Enter name..." </input><br><p>
<p>Your Email: </p>
<input type="text" name="email" size="40" maxlength="30" placeholder="Enter email..." </input><br><p>
<p>Your comment: </p>
<textarea type="text" name="comment" cols="50" rows="10" placeholder="Enter comment..."></textarea><br><p>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit comment!" ></input>
</form>
Your variable name is in single quote, it must me concat or place in double quote..
For Ex
echo "<p>$comment_name-$comment</p>";
or
echo "<p>".$comment_name."-".$comment</p>";
Try this it will work :
Use
"<p>".$comment_name." - ".$comment."</p>";
instead of
"<p>'$comment_name' - '$comment'</p>";
echo "<p>".$comment_name."-".$comment."</p>";

The landing page has form but it is not submitting and not redirecting to the next page.After submitting the form, it stays on the same page.
It was alright and was working before but I cant figure out where is the problem.
Code in formPage.php is below:
<form action="insert.php" enctype="multipart/form-data" class="contact_form" method="post" name="htmlform" >
<input class="frm-input" name="name" type="text" size="30" maxlength="50" placeholder="Enter Name" required="required" />
<input class="frm-input" name="email" type="text" size="30" maxlength="80" placeholder="Enter Email" required="required"/>
<input class="frm-input" name="jobtype" type="text" size="30" maxlength="30" placeholder="Job Type" required="required"/>
<input class="frm-input" name="ent_type" type="text" size="30" maxlength="80" placeholder="Entity Type" required="required"/>
<input class="frm-input" name="tas_out" type="text" size="30" maxlength="80" placeholder="Task Outline" required="required"/>
<input class="frm-input" name="l_st" type="text" size="30" maxlength="80" placeholder="Logo style of interest (optional)" />
<textarea required="required" class="frm-input frm-txtarea" name="message" placeholder="Task Description!!" maxlength="1000" cols="25" rows="6" ></textarea>
<input style="float: left;" type="file" name="image" size="66"/>
<input type="submit" class="btn btn-success btn-lg" name="submitt" value="submit" style="float: right" />
</form>
In this file I am trying to get the form information and storing them in database.But this page is not loading after the form submission.
Code in insert.php is below:
<?php
/*
$name = "";
$text = "";
$post = "";
*/
//echo $name;
if (isset($_POST['submitt']))
{
$name = $_POST["name"];
$mail = $_POST["email"];
$j_type = $_POST["jobtype"];
$e_type = $_POST["ent_type"];
$task = $_POST["tas_out"];
$l_st = $_POST["l_st"];
$task_des = $_POST["message"];
$image_name=$_FILES['image']['name'];
$image_type=$_FILES['image']['type'];
$image_size=$_FILES['image']['size'];
$image_temp=$_FILES['image']['tmp_name'];
//$date = date(m-d-y);
echo $name;
echo $mail;
echo $j_type;
echo $e_type;
echo $task;
echo $l_st;
echo $task_des;
if ($image_type=='image/jpeg' || $image_type=='image/png' || $image_type=='image/gif') {
move_uploaded_file($image_temp, "img/$image_name");
}
$connection=mysqli_connect("localhost", "root", "","com");
$query="insert into details (name, mail, j_type, e_type, task_outline, l_style, task_desc, image) values('".$name."','".$mail."','".$j_type."','".$e_type."','".$task."','".$l_st."','".$task_des."','".$image_name."')";
if(mysqli_query($connection,$query)){
//include('test.php');
echo '<h2>Data submitted successfully!!</h2>';
header("refresh:1; url=login.php");
//echo 'Back';
}else{
echo "Data not Submitted!";
# code...
}
}
echo "Data not Submitted!";
?>
echo "Data not Submitted!"; // put this line inside the last bracket
Sorry it was my fault,there was a typo mistake in the form action.Everything else is fine.
I have a title/entry form for submitting a blog post. On submit, it checks for the same title in the db (which you're not allowed to do), then returns an error to tell you to change your title. I want it to keep both fields filled after the POST, because duh, a user shouldn't have to rewrite the entire entry. However, it only keeps the TITLE. session_start exists in the header.php. Please ignore any SQL injection vulnerable sections.
<?php
require("connect.php");
require("header.php");
if(isset($_POST['post'])){
$title = $_POST['blogtitle'];
$entry = $_POST['blogentry'];
$author = $_SESSION['username'];
$newBlogPostQuery = "SELECT * FROM contents WHERE title='$title'";
$newBlogPostResult = mysqli_query($conn, $newBlogPostQuery) or die("Error:".mysqli_error($conn));
$newBlogPostRow = mysqli_fetch_array($newBlogPostResult, MYSQLI_ASSOC);
if(mysqli_num_rows($newBlogPostResult) ==1){
$blogPostExists = TRUE;
}
else{
$blogQuery = mysqli_query($conn, "INSERT INTO contents (timestamp, title, entry, authorName) VALUES (now(), '$title', '$entry', '$author')");
if($blogQuery){
header("Location: index.php");
}
}
}
?>
<div class="flex-enable flex-center blog-body">
<?php if(isset($blogPostExists)&&$blogPostExists){
echo '<div class="exception" style="margin: 0;"><span class="small-white-subtitle">Please use a different title.</div>';
}
?>
<form class="flex-enable flex-column" method="POST">
<label for="blogtitle"><span class="blog-insert-title">Title</span></label>
<input class="blog-input-text small-white-title" id="blogtitle" type="text" name="blogtitle" placeholder="Your title" value="<?php echo isset($_POST['blogtitle']) ? $_POST['blogtitle']:''; ?>">
<label for="blogentry"><span class="blog-insert-title">Blog post</span></label>
<textarea class="blog-input-text blog-insert-entry" id="blogentry" type="text" rows="20" name="blogentry" placeholder="Write something amazing here..." value="<?php echo isset($_POST['blogentry']) ? $_POST['blogentry']:''; ?>"></textarea>
<input class="form-button small-white-title" type="submit" name="post" value="Post">

</div>
Textarea has no value attribute, the content is between <textarea> and </textarea>.
<textarea class="blog-input-text blog-insert-entry" id="blogentry" type="text" rows="20" name="blogentry" placeholder="Write something amazing here..."><?php echo isset($_POST['blogentry']) ? htmlentities($_POST['blogentry']) : ''; ?></textarea>
You shoul put the value beetween textarea tags
<textarea class="blog-input-text blog-insert-entry" id="blogentry" type="text" rows="20" name="blogentry" placeholder="Write something amazing here..." ><?php echo isset($_POST['blogentry']) ? $_POST['blogentry']:''; ?></textarea>
You need to put value between textarea start and end tag Your Value
in your case, it will be
<textarea class="blog-input-text blog-insert-entry" id="blogentry" type="text" rows="20" name="blogentry" placeholder="Write something amazing here..."><?php echo isset($_POST['blogentry']) ? $_POST['blogentry']:''; ?></textarea>

the variable is loaded in a form in which product details can be changed. the form links to this page with the code above. but whenever I submit the form and try to change te detail i get an error of an undefined index. which is what the $_GET does in line 5. The foreach loop needs the index to be defined but whenever the form is submitted, the index in the URL is gone so the loop doesnt produce the variables that need to go to the database. I hope this makes sense. Can anybody help me out please?
Your html does not include a field named id.
You are sending the form as POST not GET, so after you add the correct field in the HTML you need to refer to it as $product_id = $_POST['id'];
No need for enctype="multipart/form-data", it will only be helpful when you are uploading files. Otherwise it can cause you problems.

I'm trying to cache the user input in my form. My code is:
echo '
<form method="POST">
Name:<br /><input class="contact_name" type="text" name="contact_name" maxlength="32" placeholder="Enter Name" /><br />
Email:<br /><input class="contact_email" type="text" name="contact_email" maxlength="50" placeholder="Email Address" /><br />
Subject:<br /><input class="contact_subject" type="text" name="contact_subject" maxlength="50" placeholder="Subject Line" /><br />
Message:<br /><textarea class="message_area" name="contact_message" rows="10" cols="50" maxlength="1000" placeholder="Message ..." /></textarea><br />
<input class="submit_button" name="submit_button" type="submit" value="Send" />
</form>
';
I tried searching for the answer and the only thing I found was adding:
<?php if(isset($contact_name)) { echo $contact_name; } ?>
This however does not work for me as my form is within a PHP echo and I'm trying to make a basic wordpress plugin. Whenever I bring the form outside the echo and , the style messes up and the form style itself breaks. So I was wondering if I can keep my form inside my echo along with a placeholder and be able to cache user inputs so when an error displays cause they didn't fill one of the spots out, it won't erase everything.
Thank you.
Then, just drop the echo and switch to HTML mode:
?>
<form method="post">
Name:<br /><input ... value="<?php echo (isset($contact_name) ? htmlspecialchars($contact_name, ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8') : ''; ?>" />
...
<?php
If you need this as a string, you could use output buffering:
ob_start();
?>
<input ... />
<?php
echo ob_get_clean();
The script for handling the action of my form redirects to the form page if the values are not in proper format. I want to fill the textfields and textarea with the faulty data the user entered on redirect to the form page. I have written the following script which redirects the page on wrong value submission, but does not fill the fields thereafter.
script on form page:
<?php
if(session_id('stat')=="true")
{
$isbn=$_SESSION['var1'] ;
$name=$_SESSION['var2'] ;
$author=$_SESSION['var3'] ;
$publisher=$_SESSION['var4'];
$price=$_SESSION['var5'];
$descrip=$_SESSION['var6'];
$status=$_SESSION['stat'];
}
else
{
$isbn="";
$name="";
$author="";
$publisher="";
$price="";
$descrip="";
$status=false;
}
?>
The html part of the form:
<form action="scripts/addscript.php" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data" name="form1" id="form1">
<label for="isbn">ISBN</label>
<input type="text" name="isbn" id="isbn" value="<?php $isbn ?>"/>
<p>
<label for="name">Name</label>
<input type="text" name="name" id="name" value="<?php echo $name; ?>"/>
</p>
<p>
<label for="author">Author</label>
<input type="text" name="author" id="author" value="<?php echo $author; ?>"/>
</p>
<p>
<label for="publisher">Publisher</label>
<input type="text" name="publisher" id="publisher" value="<?php echo $publisher; ?>"/>
</p>
<p>
<label for="price">Price</label>
<input type="text" name="price" id="price" value="<?php echo $price;?>"/>
</p>
<p>
<label for="description">Description</label>
<textarea name="description" id="description" cols="45" rows="5"><?php echo $descrip; ?></textarea>
</p>
<p>
<label for="img">Select an image for the book:
<input type="file" name="img" id="img" />
</label>
<input type="submit" name="submit" id="submit" value="Submit"/>
</p>
</form>
The redirecting script on addscript.php to which the form values are submitted:
<?php
// Get values from form
$isbn=$_POST['isbn'];
$name=$_POST['name'];
$author=$_POST['author'];
$publisher=$_POST['publisher'];
$price=$_POST['price'];
$descrip=$_POST['description'];
$_SESSION['var1'] = $isbn;
$_SESSION['var2'] = $name;
$_SESSION['var3'] = $author;
$_SESSION['var4'] = $publisher;
$_SESSION['var5'] = $price;
$_SESSION['var6'] = $descrip;
if(strlen($isbn)==0||strlen($name)==0||strlen($author)==0||strlen($publisher)==0||strlen($price)==0)
{
$_SESSION['stat']="true";
header('Location: ' . $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']);
}
Please telll me where is the problem and how can I solve the issue?
Thanks in advance.
session_start() must be called at the top of your PHP script to use the $_SESSION variable.
