Show a pages code including require statements - php

I am trying to display the code of a php file as plain html. This is all going well except for that fact that I would like it to 'open up' the <?php require 'Main_content_bar.php'; ?> statements aswell.
So far I have show_source($page); correctly working.
It currently prints:
<?php require 'Main_content_bar.php'; ?>
<!-- Jumbotron -->
<div class="jumbotron">
<h1>Property</h1>
<p class="lead">Cras justo odio, dapibus ac facilisis in, egestas eget quam. Fusce dapibus, tellus ac cursus
commodo, tortor mauris condimentum nibh, ut fermentum massa justo sit amet.</p>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">
<h2>Current properties</h2>
</div>
</div>
<div class="footer">
<p><a href="Source_code.php" target="_blank"> <img src="Images/codebutton<?php echo $page_lower;?>.jpg" alt="<?php echo $page;?> Source"> </img>
</a></p>
<p>© Robin B'stards Retail 2014</p>
</div>
</body>
</html>
However, as one can see, the contents of the require statements do not show. I cannot for the life of me work out how to do this.
So what it would end up looking like is something like this:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">

Note the lack of require statements


You cannot do that with show_source, which just "show some code sources" of a file.
You need to create your own function which take a filename in argument, then you have to analyze the source like this:
replace all require/include/require_once/include_once (what do I forget?) by their own content
make the function recursive (because Main_content_bar.php can have other include inside it)
Use highlight_string at the end of your function.
EDIT to search & replace, one way (there is several) is to use preg_match_all. That part of the code would look like this :
$new_content = file_get_contents('your-file.php');
$base_path = __DIR__.'/';
// pattern to find require, require_once, include, include_once functions
// and catch their arguments
$pattern = "#<\?php (?:require|include(?:_once)?)\s*'(.*)'; \?>#u";
if (preg_match_all($pattern, $new_content, $matches))
{
foreach($matches[0] as $pattern_index => $full_pattern)
{
$file = $matches[1][$pattern_index];
$subcontent = file_get_contents($base_path.$matches[$pattern_index]);
$new_content = str_replace($new_content, $full_pattern, $subcontent);
}
}
highlight_string($new_content);

php problem with using a get value. works on one part of the page but not the other

im working on my crud skills, but im having some trouble. the first page shows a list of all blog posts, when the user clicks on read more it sends the specific posts id through the url and is recieved by the destination page which uses that id to display the single post/ heres the code for that part. it actually works fine
function display_single_post($title,$author,$date,$image,$content){
$main_page_blog_html = "<h2>
<a href='#'>%s</a>
</h2>
<p class='lead'>
by <a href='index.php'>%s</a>
</p>
<p><span class='glyphicon glyphicon-time'></span> Posted on %s</p>
<hr>
<img class='img-responsive' src='images/%s'>
<hr>
<p>%s</p>
<hr>
<hr>";
printf("{$main_page_blog_html}",$title,$author,$date,$image,$content);
if(isset($_GET["id"])){
$id = $_GET["id"];
$stmt = $connect->link->query("SELECT * FROM posts WHERE post_id = $id");
while($row = $stmt->fetch()){
$post_title = $row["post_title"];
$post_author = $row["post_author"];
$post_date = date('F j, Y \a\t g:ia', strtotime( $row["post_date"] ));
$post_image = $row["post_image"];
$post_content = $row["post_content"];
$id = $row["post_id"];
display_single_post($post_title,$post_author,$post_date,$post_image,$post_content);
}
}
like i said this all works fine. the get value is recieved and loads the post. the problem is when i try to use that $_get id in a query to insert a comment. all this code is on the one page im just showing the php without the html. anyway heres the code to insert the comment
if(isset($_POST["create_comment"])){
global $connect;
$post_id = $_GET["id"];
$comment_author = $_POST["comment_author"];
$author_email = $_POST["author_email"];
$comment_content = $_POST["comment_content"];
$comment_status = "pending";
edit with all the code

Based on your code and your comments, I assume the page is called post.php and when you first reach the page it has the id on the url like this: post.php?id=156.
But once you submit the comments' form, since the action for said form it is simply post.php you're losing the id.
You could add the id on the action after post:
<form role="form" method="post" action="post.php?id=<?php echo $id; ?>">
or add a hidden input with the id:
<input type="hidden" name="id" value="<?php echo $id; ?>">
But then you'd have to reach it with $_POST
Another option is to use the SELF for the action like this:
<form role="form" method="post" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>">
This will retain the id but also any other get variables you may have on the url.
//EDIT
This is a simplification of the probelm which is working, if you visit post.php?id=456 (or any number) and then press Submit, you get the proper response:
<!-- First Blog Post -->
<?php
if(isset($_POST["create_comment"])){
$post_id = $_GET["id"];
echo "The id is: $post_id";
// gets comment and inserts into the db
}
if(isset($_GET["id"])){
$id = $_GET["id"];
// calls display_single_post
}
?>
<!-- Comments Form -->
<div class="well">
<h4>Leave a Comment:</h4>
<form role="form" method="post" action="post.php?id=<?php echo $id; ?>">
<button type="submit" name="create_comment" class="btn btn-primary">Submit</button>
</form>
</div>

Redirect header is not redirecting to the destined page

I am trying to redirect the page using header("location: profile.php") after I click a submit button in the login form, but the page won't redirect. The username and password just gets submitted somewhere.
Here is my main page:
<?php
include ($_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"]."/example/login.php");
if(isset($_SESSION['login_user'])){
header("location: profile.php");
}
?>

and here is the login.php page that contains the header() function call:
<?php
session_start(); // Starting Session
$error=""; // Variable To Store Error Message
if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
if (empty($_POST['username']) || empty($_POST['password'])) {
$error = "Username or Password is invalid";
}
else
{
// Define $username and $password
$username=$_POST['username'];

// Establishing Connection with Server by passing server_name, user_id and password as a parameter
$server="localhost";
$username="root";
$password="";
$database="noteshare";
$conn = new mysqli($server, $username, $password, $database);
// To protect MySQL injection for Security purpose
$username = stripslashes($username);
$password = stripslashes($password);
//$username = mysql_real_escape_string($username);
//$password = mysql_real_escape_string($password);
// Selecting Database
//$db = mysqli_select_db("noteshare", $conn);
// SQL query to fetch information of registerd users and finds user match.
$qry="select * from signin where password='$password' AND username='$username'";
$query = mysqli_query($conn,$qry);
$rows = mysqli_fetch_row($query);
if ($rows == 1) {
$_SESSION['login_user']=$username; // Initializing Session
header("Location:http://localhost.com/profile.php", true, 301); exit;// Redirecting To Other Page
} else {
$error = "Username or Password is invalid";
}
mysqli_close($conn); // Closing Connection
}
}
?>

function mysqli_fetch_row returns an array or NULL. Therefore
if ($rows == 1)
is never true and you won't reach the redirect with header().
You can use i.e if (is_array($rows)) or if (isset($rows))
You can always insert a var_dump($rows) for debugging to see what the variable $rows looks like.
Note, HTTP code 301 is a permanent redirect. It should be 302. Or simply you can omit the second and third argument of the header() function and it will be a 302.

Did your connection with mysql is ok, then try this,
header('Location:filename');
Eg: header('Location:test1.php');

Try this
header("Location:profile.php"); die();
OR redirect with JS
echo '<script>window.location.href = "profile.php";</script>' ;

You are using an absolute URL. TLD .com is not used when working on a local server.
Change:
header("Location:http://localhost.com/profile.php");
To:
header("Location:http://localhost/profile.php");
It should work!

How do i require user authentication to view dashboard page

On my index page i have my login form for users, then it goes to login.php to handle the login script, from there the users are redirected to dashboardd.php. But i want it to to be so that they have to be logged in to access this page, and not just type in the URL.
Index.php
<?php
session_start();
?>
<?php
if( isset($_SESSION['ERRMSG_ARR']) && is_array($_SESSION['ERRMSG_ARR']) && count($_SESSION['ERRMSG_ARR']) >0 ) {
echo '<ul style="padding:0; color:red;">';
foreach($_SESSION['ERRMSG_ARR'] as $msg) {
echo '<li>',$msg,'</li>';
}
echo '</ul>';
unset($_SESSION['ERRMSG_ARR']);
}
?>

$_SESSION['logged_in'] = array('username' => $username, 'id' => $userID);
OR
$_SESSION['logged_in'] = TRUE;
And then check on the dashboard
if(!isset($_SESSION['logged_in'])){
header('Location:index.php');
}
Now if it does not exists, it will return the user to index.php. Don't forget to use session_start() at the top of every page where you want to call the $_SESSION variables.
You can set an array() in a $_SESSION, so this is ideal for storing user info. Do not store user passwords in a $_SESSION tho.

It is simple as you do it using the tables. Tables are used only because they already formatted so the output is clear means you can display different data in different rows by using or different columns using
You can also print the data in the divs same things as you follow in a table. If you have problems using the divs go through some tutorials for divs or you can still do it using the tables just give it proper styling using CSS.

How to convert an html template to joomla

I am new to joomla and trying to change a simple html template to joomla template. I made changes over the templatedetails.xml and index.php. Now my template is visible at templates of joomla. But it is not allowing to add menus or perform any joomla operation over to it.

Please suggest how i can change this html template to exact joomla template. Thanks.

Replace conrete content with references to module positions, message container and component output. Your template will then look like
<?php
/**
* My template
*
* #copyright (C)2013 Neetesh <neetesh#example.com>
* #author XYZ
* #link http://www.google.com
*/
// No direct access
defined('_JEXEC') or die('Restricted access');
?>

The example above provides the module positions logo, header, left, right, and footer. Add these to the templateDetails.xml.
Next, find modules producing the sudebar content, you want, and assign them to the position, where you want to see them.
