It means that the HTTP POST lack the 'name' key.
The error is explicit, if you edit the php file and go to line 62, you can understand.
You never set $name, you set $username.
Copyed and clipped from your code:
$username = strip_tags($_REQUEST['name']);
...
$post_fields['username'] = $name;

I have a process.php file for processing a comment/message form. If there is an error during the processing, the incorrect form content is echoed and shown as a web page named process.php to the viewer for correction and resubmitting.
The problem is that I need the echoed content to contain various <?php include("xxxx.php");?> elements so that it matches the rest of my site. But this seems to make the page fall over (showing blank page with no content). I've been told that I should use either include("xxxx.php"); or echo file_get_contents("xxxx.php"); from within the echoed content, but neither displays the intended content.
Any help in these issues would be greatly appreciated.
Code: (some items xxxxx for security)
<?php
// Information to be modified
$your_email = "xxxxxxxx#xxxxx.xx.xx"; // email address to which the form data will be sent
$subject = "Contact message"; // subject of the email that is sent
$thanks_page = "thankyou.htm"; // path to the thank you page following successful form submission
$contact_page = "mail_form_styled.php"; // path to the HTML contact page where the form appears
// Nothing needs to be modified below this line
if (!isset($_POST['submit'])) {
header( "Location: $contact_page" );
}
if (isset($_POST["submit"])) {
$nam = $_POST["name"];
$ema = trim($_POST["email"]);
$com = $_POST["comments"];
$spa = $_POST["spam"];

You'd simply use CSS as you normally would...
<?php
// index.php
?>
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
.myClass {
color: #f00;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<?php
include('myFile.php');
?>
</body>
</html>
<?php
// included myFile.php
echo '<p class="myClass">Echoed content!</p>';
If you're ending up with a blank page with no content then you potentially have errors in your PHP. Ensure error reporting is enabled and you'll be able to see what's going wrong.
I am wanting to put a delete button, so people can delete their post if they want on my simple blog website. I am just a little unsure how to do it. I guess I need to put a value=delete input field on my posting_wall but not sure where to go from there. Thank you in advnace if you can help me.

So i have a form here, and I want on the to do some php so that if the field is empty, it will say once you submit the form after it loads to the post page, that sorry you entered no date. I also want to add strip tags, however I am unsure how, if they go on the posting_wall or if they go in the form.php? I want to use strip all tags.
I believe the empty validation was if(!empty(($date)) { echo "sorry you did not enter a date"; } but i could not get it to work.
Thank you in advance if you can help me with this. I will post the form.php and the posting wall below.

You can check through jquery in the submit function
var datepicker=$("#datepicker").val();
if(datepicker=='') { alert('Please enter date'); return false; }
It should be
if(empty(($date)) {
echo "sorry you did not enter a date";
}
NOT
if(!empty(($date)) {
echo "sorry you did not enter a date";
}
The first expression will print "sorry you did not enter a date" if the date field is empty. The second expression will print that message if the date field is not empty.
You can try the code below. It will print 'This is an empty string'
<?php
$date = '';
if (empty($date)) {
echo 'This is an empty string';
}
if (!empty($date)) {
echo 'The date is ' . $date;
}
I am trying to cater to past users who have posted in the past. What I am trying to do is highlight any of the users pasts posts and also, on the home page do something like welcome back $name ! ONLY if the user has posted before though. I have no idea how to do this, need to check against the database probably but I am not sure how.
Thank you in advance.

I have problem passing date parameters via GET url. I fetch data from two input fields with datepicker associated to it.
Here is code:
$(".options input[type='submit']").click(function() {
$('#From').datepicker();
$('#To').datepicker();
var $From = $('#From').datepicker('getDate').getDate();
var $To = $('#To').datepicker('getDate').getDate();
$('#placeholder').html('<img src="php/jpgraph/example2.php?From=' + $From + '&To=' + $To + '" />');
});

When I choose date from datepicker image shows. But if I don't choose date with datepicker then nothing shows. Maybe I could examine if date is not choosen, then to set values to empty string. Something like this:
if ($From == null) {
$From = '';
}
if ($To == null) {
$To = '';
}
I tried this but it doesn't work. What could be solution for problem?
EDIT: For now, I don't handle GET params on the server side, to simplify problem, but take a look:
<?php
require_once ('jpgraph.php');
require_once ('jpgraph_line.php');
$con = mysql_connect("localhost", "user", "pass");
if (!$con) {
die('Could not connect:' . mysql_error());
}
mysql_select_db("db", $con);
$result = mysql_query("select Temperature from TEMPERATURE");
$niz = array();
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
$niz[] = $row['Temperature'];
}
$graph = new Graph(600,400);
$graph->SetScale('intint');
$graph->title->set('Title');
$graph->xaxis->title->Set('Day');
$graph->yaxis->title->Set('Temp');
$lineplot=new LinePlot($niz);
$lineplot->SetColor('blue');
$graph->Add($lineplot);
$graph->Stroke();
?>
Try this.
if($('#From').val()){
//Get the date here
var fromDate = $('#From').datepicker('getDate');
}
if($('#To').val()){
//Get the date here
var toDate = $('#To').datepicker('getDate');
}
