I have written a HTML and PHP code which should show a survey form and invite you to enter your email address and have a submit button for you to click. However, when I "run" the code, I get some gibberish which I wrote in my code, which I did not expect to appear on my survey form. The code that I have written is as follows:
session_start();
if (!empty($_POST['posted']) && !empty($_POST['email'])){
$folder = "surveys/" . strtolower($_POST['email']);
// send path information to the session
$_SESSION['folder'] = $folder;
if(!file_exists($folder)) {
// make the directory and then add the empty files
mkdir($folder, 0777, true);
}
header("Location: 08_6.php");
}
else { ?>
<html>
<head>
<title>Files and folders - Online Survey</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor="white" text="black">
<h2>Survey Form</h2>
<p>Please enter your email address to start recording your comments</p>
<form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="posted" value="1">
<p>Email address: <input type="text" name="email" size="45" /><br />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit"></p>
</form>
</body>
</html>
<?php }
What's happening is that I'm getting:
session_start(); if (!empty($_POST['posted']) && !empty($_POST['email'])){...
and whole bunch of other stuff appearing at the top of the webpage, which is certainly not what I want. Could one of you experts please tell me what I'm doing wrong?

You have not included an opening <?php tag in your page.

I want to access HTML data in the PHP file to add two numbers. Below is the HTML code to take user input-
addnumber.html
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<form action="add.php" method="POST">
<input type="number" name="fno"/>
<input type="number" name="sno"/>
<input type="submit"/>
</form>
</body>
</html>
Below id the add.php file code
<?php
$a = $POST['fno'];
$b = $POST['sno'];
$ans = $a+$b;
echo $ans;
?>
But after clicking the submit button in the chrome PHP code is shown instead of the result of two number addition.
Is the file code not running because I need to use localhost:8080 instead of localhost. Please help if possible.
Note: I can run PHP using http://localhost:8080/programs/add.php line.
I changed the port from 80 to 8080 for Apache and it works.

I am new to php and I'm trying to have a form in which you have to input two numbers which are added to each other when submitted.
It works just fine, but whenever I click submit it opens a new tab in my browser (tested in chrome and firefox) to show to anwser, which I don't want.
I write the php code in the same file as my html.
Can anyone help me?
Thank you!
<!DOCTYPE html>
<form target="/index.php" method="GET">
<input type="number" name="num1">
<input type="number" name="num2">
<input type="submit">
</form>
<p>anwser:</p>
<?php
echo $_GET["num1"] + $_GET["num2"];
?>
php has nothing to do with new window or not...
its your target what does it... it opens a new window with internal name "/index.php"
what you are looking for is action="/index.php"
<form action="/index.php" method="GET">
<input type="number" name="num1">
<input type="number" name="num2">
<input type="submit">
</form>
<p>anwser:</p>
<?php
echo $_GET["num1"] + $_GET["num2"];
?>

Unfortunately all of my PHP commands showing on page as HTML, I don't know why. I had to use it before without errors though. What is my mistake here?

It's not interpreted as PHP, check if PHP is up and running!
- check the file extension
- make sure that php is integrated correctly with your server
- try to reinstall xampp

When I click in my newsletter subscribe button in my footer Im going to the top of my page.
I can have my sucess message my error messages but Im going always to the top of my page. And I dont want this because I want that usre see the feedback message without scroll down to my footer.
Do you see why this happening and how can I fix this?
<form action="" name="newsletter" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<div id="email_newsletter_container">
<input type="text" id="email" value="<?php if(isset($_POST['email'])) echo $email; ?>" name="email" placeholder="Insert your email..." required/>
<input type="hidden" name="newsl_sub" value="subscribe" />
<button class="btnn" type="submit" name="subscribe"><span>Subscribe</span></button>
</div>
</form>
When you put action="" the action will reload the page. If you put action="#newsletter" it should take the user to the section of the page that contains the form when the form is submitted. You may also want to add id="newsletter" to the form to ensure compatibilities.
<? if($post_was_submitted_and_comment_was_inserted) { ?>
<script>
window.addEventListener("load", function(){
document.getElementById("comments").scrollIntoView();
});

I am new to html & php and I appreciate your help. I am trying to accept user input into a webpage and then after the user clicks the submit button, write a new record out to MySQL. I am using Wordpress so the tags are not exactly textbook.
So my first problem is that the submit button does not appear to execute the php code. I also would appreciate it if someone could check how I am passing my html field names to the php variables to make sure that I am on the right track. Thanks for your help!
html code to collect user input for fields on the form.....
<?php>
if(isset($_POST['Submit'])) {
$FName = $_POST['FName'];
$MI = $_POST['MI'];
$LName = $_POST['LName'];
....
?>
<form action="" method="post">
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit">
I think it can be good to read a bit more about it. Check here.
Anyway, you need to say the name of the file to post to: <input type="submit" action="file.php" name="Submit" /> for example.
And you need to have more inputs than the submit.
Acording to your php you should have as example this in the html:
<form action="your_php_file.php" method="post">
<p>Your first name: <input type="text" name="FName" /></p>
<p>Your last name: <input type="text" name="LName" /></p>
<p>Your MI: <input type="text" name="MI" /></p>
<p><input type="submit" name="Submit"/></p>
</form>
And the php tags are like <?php to open, and ?> to close.
So like:
<?php
if(isset($_POST['Submit'])) {
$FName = $_POST['FName'];
$MI = $_POST['MI'];
$LName = $_POST['LName'];
//....
?>
Your PHP tags are incorrect. Use <?php and ?> to tell PHP to start and stop interpreting the code between them. Also, make sure you're closing the form element (I only see you're opening it) using </form> and that you indeed have all those fields contained inside of it.
