OK so I have two different types of forms and I want to use one form to submit them both. I am using a auto-responder form for form1 fields= first, last and email. My second form is a contact me form fields= name. email and a body field. I am trying to use both these forms at one shot. I have a form that will post fields to each form (INDEX.PHP) the problem is I am not sure how to set up form one to post fields into form1 and form2 the way I want. I want to use the fields that match from form index.php to both the other forms (form1, form2). so name and email will go to both forms and the body field will go to form2. The main form will post first and last in the name field of form2....also as you can see from form 1 and 2 each form has a some sort of redirect page I need to work around.?
I have main form:
Index.php
<html>
<head>
<title>Main Form</title>
</head>
<body>
<h2>Winner Aution Item Request Form</h2>
<p><span class="error"><FONT><font color="red">* required field.</font></span></p>
<form method="post" action="<?php echo htmlspecialchars($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]);?>">

ass you can see from the code I was going to use sessions. But not to familiar with it even though I have experience with php I am still quite new to it and need help. I want to pars form data to both forms. and the product name to form two. any help on this would be greatly appreciated.. I hope this is clear enough for some one out there to help.....
Ok New code Three forms 1.main form submits information to form1 and form2.
I have set up using a session so I have: session.php
<?php
session_start();
// store session data
$_SESSION['af_first_name'] = $af_first_name;
$_SESSION['af_last_name'] = $af_last_name;
$_SESSION['af_email'] = $af_email;
$_SESSION['cf_address'] = $cf_item_name;
?>
That handles variables.
My new code for index.php
<?php
// including the session file
require_once("session_start.php")
?>
<?php
function stripZlashes($string)
{
//This function is to strip slashes for either array or a String
if (!is_array($string)) return stripslashes($string);
$nvar = array();
foreach ($string as $key => $value)
$nvar[stripslashes($key)] = stripZlashes($value);
return $nvar;
}
?>
</head>
<body>
<h2>Winner Aution Item Request Form</h2>
<p><span class="error"><FONT><font color="red">* required field.</font></span></p>
<form name="form1">
First Name: <input type="text" name="$af_first_name" id="af_first_name" value="<?php if(isset($_SESSION['af_first_name'])){echo stripslashes($_SESSION['af_first_name']); unset($_SESSION['af_first_name']); } ?>" /><br>
Last Name: <input type="text" name="$af_last_name" id="af_last_name" value="<?php if(isset($_SESSION['af_last_name'])){echo stripslashes($_SESSION['af_last_name']); unset($_SESSION['af_last_name']); } ?>" /><br>
E-Mail: <input type="text" name="$af_email" id="af_email" value="<?php if(isset($_SESSION['af_email'])){echo stripslashes($_SESSION['af_email']); unset($_SESSION['af_email']); } ?>" /><br>
</form>
<form name="form2">Copy and Paste Auction Name Below!<br>
Product Name <br><input type="text" name="$cf_item_name" id="cf_item_name" value="<?php if(isset($_SESSION['cf_item_name'])){echo stripslashes($_SESSION['cf_item_name']); unset($_SESSION['cf_item_name']); } ?>" /><br>
<input type="Submit" value="Submit" name="submit" onsubmit="form2.submit(); form3.submit();"></input>
That form takes input and sets to session. Session.php picks it up and places it in variable form. From here I used a strip for the underscores. and when it goes to form1 and form2 varables pick it up and fill in the form. Here is my new form1
<?php
function stripZlashes($string)
{
//This function is to strip slashes for either array or a String
if (!is_array($string)) return stripslashes($string);
$nvar = array();
foreach ($string as $key => $value)
$nvar[stripslashes($key)] = stripZlashes($value);
return $nvar;
}
if(!empty($_SESSION['_mf'])): //Strip all possible back slashes
stripZlashes($_SESSION['_mf']);
endif;
// including the session file
require_once("session_start.php")
?>

Ok now i have an issue with it submitting correctly...
<form name="form1">
<input type="text" value="" name="somename" onkeyup="form2.somename.value=this.value" />
</form>
<form name="form2">
<input type="text" value="" name="somename" />
</form>
check out the above code. hope this could be helpful. Or if this is not the result which you require. so you can be brief with your requirements in reply.
I don't know the usage or need of your implementation: maybe it is like a 3 step registration form?
It could be done in different ways without complicating it too much.
You could put all three forms in the same page and only showing the right one
according to th data being posted to the same page. It is the old way of doing things.
With Ajax calls, templates and javascript it could be don simpler but it depends on
your experience.
on each element you can mention as per their relevent events, such as
Ex. onkeyup="form2.elementname.value=this.value"

My studybook gives me an assignment which requires me to have 2 forms on one page and output them both to the same page. Is this even possible? Both forms work fine independently. Both have the action:
<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>".
Both have a submit button, but the button only submits the form it's part of. This probably makes sence though.
Thing is i need the page to either post both form outputs when clicking one of the 2 submit buttons or press them subsequently but the information from the first form needs to stay on the page.
Is this possible or am i trying do to the impossible?
the forms are as follows;
form 1:
<form name="orderform" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="post">
Korting:

<input type="checkbox" name="korting[]" value=15 /> Student 15% <br>

Both have functions which kick in on submit. Sorry for the spacings. I have them better in my own files but i just don't know how to get them right on this site.
Greetings,
Lennart
The action represent the page that will receive the posted data. You may use differents actions or the same action with different parameters.
If you use the same action, you had to insert a parameter that permit to manage different cases. You may insert an hidden field to do this.
Consider these simple forms:
<form name="form_a" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="form" value="A">
<button type="submit">Form A</button>
</form>
<form name="form_b" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="form" value="B">
<button type="submit">Form B</button>
</form>
To manage the different submission, you had to check the value of the hidden field:
if(isset($_POST['form'])){
switch ($_POST['form']) {
case "A":
echo "submitted A";
break;
case "B":
echo "submitted B";
break;
default:
echo "What are you doing?";
}
}
You can't submit two separate forms at the same time, because each submission represent a different request to the server.
You may merge manually the fields of the two forms, or use Javascript to do this for you.
Keep in mind that if you do this via Javascript, the field of the forms had to have differents names.
As you caan see here you can do simply via jQuery:
var str1 = $("form_a").serialize();
var str2 = $("form_b").serialize();
$.post(url, str1 + "&" + str2);
Where url is the action params of the form
Your form should be like this.
First form
<form method="post" >
...
<input type="hidden" name="form1submission" value="yes" >
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" >
</form>
Second form
<form method="post" >
...
<input type="hidden" name="form2submission" value="yes" >
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" >
</form>
And your php for first form.
if('POST' == $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] && isset($_POST['form1submission'])) {
// first form code.
}
And second form php code.
if('POST' == $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] && isset($_POST['form2submission'])) {
// second form code.
}
That's it.
DUPLICATE POST
Yes you can!
First, add the proper action to all forms, secondly, give them an unique name
HTML Side
Don't forget to add the http method what you want (GET or POST)
<form method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="orderform" />
<!-- rest of form goes here -->
</form>
<form method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="klant_gegevens" />
<!-- rest of form goes here -->
</form>
Leaving the action-attribute empty or removing it entirely will make the form submit to the current page (see this post), and usage of $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"] can lead to XSS-injection read under "Big Note on PHP Form Security"
Note:
Avoid using space for field names, it can make some problem to match them...
PHP Side
getting input values, by filtering on received form name
if (isset($_POST["orderform"])) {
// The first form was submitted
}
if (isset($_POST["klant_gegevens"])) {
// The second form was submitted
}
Note:
Use print_r() or var_dump(), to debug the content of exchanged values
I have a form page and when I submit this form all inputs are posting successfully except this one:
<input id="TC" class="form-control" name="kullanici_id" type="text" onchange="edit()"
<?php if($this->data['kullanici_id']){echo 'readonly';} ?>
value="<?php echo $this->data['kullanici_id']?>">
But why?
-This is my .phtml file:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="/admin/kaydet" method="post" onSubmit="javascript: beforeSubmit();">
<?php if(strlen($this->data['id'])):?>
<input type="hidden" name="id" value="<?php echo $this->data['id']?>">
<?php endif;?>
<font color="green"><h3>DÜZENLE</h3></font>
<img src="/foto/<?php echo $this->data['fotograf']?>" height="110" width="110" align="left" />
<table class="table">
<tr>
<td>T.C. Kimlik No.:</td>
<td><input id="TC" class="form-control" name="kullanici_id" type="text" onchange="edit()" <?php if($this->data['kullanici_id']){echo 'readonly';} ?> value="<?php echo $this->data['kullanici_id']?>"></td>
</tr>
<?php if(!strlen($this->data['id'])):?>
<tr>
<td>Parola:</td>
<td><input id="password2" class="form-control" type="password" name="parola" value="<?php echo $this->data['parola']?>"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Parola Tekrar:</td>
<td><input onchange="passwordCheck(this.value)" class="form-control" type="password" name="parola" value="<?php echo $this->data['parola']?>"></td>
</tr>
<?php endif; ?>
</table>
<td><button type="submit" class="btn btn-success btn-sm glyphicon glyphicon-floppy-disk">KAYDET</button> </td>
</form>
</body>
</html>
If I have an id; page looks like an edit member page, if I haven't; page will add a new member. In id="TC" input, if I edit a member, this input shouldn't change, so I add a readonly to solve this. But when I submit, input does not post.
Sorry about my bad English :D
Reason your field is not being submitted it is because its set to readonly.
Reason for this is 'If user cannot change the field there is no point of submitting it as value will always remain the same'.
One way to mitigate this behavior is to add hidden field with same name
<input type="hidden" name="kullanici_id" value="<?php echo $this->data['kullanici_id']?>"> />
<input id="TC" class="form-control" name="kullanici_id" type="text" onchange="edit()" <?php if($this->data['kullanici_id']){echo 'readonly';} ?> value="<?php echo $this->data['kullanici_id']?>" />
I have two php forms, both for registration means (enter name, username, password etc). My first registration form (reg1.php) contains the basic inputs as I mentioned above and then I have a second registration form (reg2.php) that includes checkboxes where the form would ask the user other questions before finalizing their sign up.
What I am having trouble with is that when I enter data into my inputs in the first registration form, then proceed to the next registration page and fill that out and click Sign Up, my output on my server only obtains the information I inputted in the second registration page, not the first.
How can I get both inputted data from the two registration pages to appear together? I have been told about POSTBACK to help with this but I am not all that familiar with how to use it.
First php page:
<body>
<?php include("menu.php"); ?>
<div id="main">
<h2>Sign Up</h2>
<table style="width:300px">
<form name="Rego" method="post" action="rego2.php">
<tr>
<td><label>Name:</label></td>
<td><input type="text" name="fname"/></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label>Username:</label></td>
<td><input type="text" name="username"/></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label>Password:</label></td>
<td><input type="password" name="password" id="pass" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><label>Confirm Password:</label></td>
<td><input type="password" name="conpassword" id="conpass"/></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><p><input class="button" type="submit" value="Next Page">
<input class="button" type="reset" value="Reset"></p></td>
</tr>
</form>
</table>
</div>
</body>
Second php page
<body>
<?php include("menu.php"); ?>
<div id="main">
<h2>Sign Up</h2>
<table>
<form name="Rego" method="post" action="http://myserver...">
<tr>
<td>
<input type="checkbox" name="checkbox" value="Agree to T&C">I agree to the Terms and Conditions<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="checkbox" value="No Criminal Records">I have no criminal associations<br>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><p><input class="button" type="submit" value="Sign Up">
<input class="button" type="reset" value="Reset"></p></td>
</tr>
</form>
</table>
</div>
</body>
When the first form is submitted either store the data in a $_SESSION variable and retrieve it when you process the second form, or write it to hidden <input> elements on your second form and retrieve it from the $_GET or $_POST array
In 2nd input form you take first inout from value and keep those one as hidden.
and 2nd input form you should
<body>
<?php include("menu.php"); ?>
<div id="main">
<h2>Sign Up</h2>
<table>
<form name="Rego" method="post" action="http://myserver...">
<input type="hidden" name="fname" value="<?php echo $_POST['fname'];?> " />
<input type="hidden" name="username" value="<?php echo $_POST['username'];?> " />
<input type="hidden" name="passowrd" value="<?php echo $_POST['password'];?> " />
<input type="hidden" name="conpassowrd" value="<?php echo $_POST['conpassword'];?> " />
<tr>
<td>
<input type="checkbox" name="checkbox" value="Agree to T&C">I agree to the Terms and Conditions<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="checkbox" value="No Criminal Records">I have no criminal associations<br>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><p><input class="button" type="submit" value="Sign Up">
<input class="button" type="reset" value="Reset"></p></td>
</tr>
</form>
</table>
</div>
</body>
I hope it will work for you.
In the second page, you can get the post data from page 1 and set it in a hidden field like this, say the fname:
<input type="hidden" name="fname" id="fname" value="<?php echo $_POST['fname'] ?>">
When you submit from the second page, you can catch this data in the destination page, say
$_POST['fname']
In my html page, i have links like this
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="4" cellpadding="4">
<tr>
<td><img src="images/box4.png" width="230" height="300" /></td>
<td><img src="images/box1.png" width="230" height="300" /></td>
<td><img src="images/box2.png" width="230" height="300" /></td>
<td><img src="images/box3.png" width="230" height="300" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
When i click on any one of the image, it will go to ApplicationRegister.php page with plan= corresponding values.
In my ApplicationRegister.php i have a registration form
<form action="emailconfirmation.php" method="post" name="form1" id="form1" onsubmit="return Validate();">
Company Name:
<input type="text" name="CompanyName" style="width:230px; height:20px;" /><br /><br />
Company E-mail :
<input type="text" name="Companyemail" style="width:230px; height:20px;" /><br /><br />
Company Contact <input type="text" name="CompanyContact" style="width:230px; height:20px;" /><br /><br />
Company Address: <input type="text" name="CompanyAddress" style="width:230px; height:20px;" /><br /><br />
<input type="hidden" name="form_submitted" value="1"/>
<input type="submit" value="REGISTER" name="submit" />
</form>
In this page it should take the value from url like plan=trail or plan1... whatever there in the url. then while submitting all the values should be submitted along with these form data.
How to achieve this? Please help.
First, you need to sanitize the plan input:
<?php
$plan = #$_GET['plan'];
$plan = +$plan; #convert to number
?>
Just add another hidden field containing that value
<form action="emailconfirmation.php" method="post" name="form1" id="form1" onsubmit="return Validate();">
...
<input type="submit" value="REGISTER" name="submit" />
<input type="hidden" name="plan" value="<?php echo $plan ?>"/>
</form>
Another option would be to add it as a get parameter to the action:
<form action="emailconfirmation.php?plan=<?php echo $plan ?>"
method="post" name="form1" id="form1" onsubmit="return Validate();">
...
<input type="submit" value="REGISTER" name="submit" />
</form>
Hey if you are sending a value as a part of the URL then you should have a container to grab it..use the php $_GET[] to grab that value..a bit of googling about php forms will help you rather than giving you the code.
http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_forms.asp Read from this link and keep coding!!
You need to add a hidden field to your form on ApplicationRegister.php that includes the 'plan' query parameter. The following HTML should sit within the form:
<input type="hidden" name="plan" value="<?php echo isset($_GET['plan']) ? $_GET['plan'] : 'trial'; ?>" />
The code sets the default value to be 'trial', should they visit this page without gone via the previous page.
Then you can handle the form data as you usual in 'emailconfirmation.php'. You can do something like:
if (isset($_POST))
{
$post_Plan = isset($_POST['plan']) ? $_POST['plan'] : null;
// etc ...
} else {
// redirect back
}
<form name="frm1" method="post" action="/123/123/123/123/result_page.php">
<td class="search_bar"><input type="text" name="textfield" style="width:95%; height:28px; border:0px;" /></td>
<td class="search_btn"></td>
</form>
Add a submit button to your form:
<form name="frm1" method="post" action="/123/123/123/123/result_page.php">
<td class="search_bar">
<input type="text" name="searchCity" />
</td>
<td class="search_btn">
<input type="submit" value="Search" />
</td>
</form>
Having a link as you have will bypass the form and generate a GET request, not a POST.
