I have been trying the whole week to get this too work but haven't had any luck thus far. I am building an employee system, being my first project I could really use your help.
I have a database with a table called ref_employees with x amount of fields.
I managed to get my hands on some source to edit the record and thought that my problem was solved. Although the source helped me to edit the records, the client needs more functionality by means of upload and storing functionality. I have edited the code accordingly but have 2 issues now.
1) I had to add the upload form separate to the editing form because when the edits' update is clicked it clears the upload fields within the db even after adding echoing out the current values within the upload fields in the db.
2) The uploads shows that it is uploading but is doesn't get saved in the specified directory. The permissions are set to 777, and the file names are not captured in the database in the relevant fields. I think it is because the upload function is in a separate page and not on the same page as the upload form.
I need it to upload the file, store it in a directory and finally place the file name in the db where the warning fields are, but it needs to be captured under the record (employee) being edited.
I am new to this and all help is appreciated.
The edit page:
<?php
include 'core/init.php';
protect_page();
include 'includes/overall/header.php';
error_reporting(1);

<?php

So I am trying to get the title from the URL by using $_GET['title'] in the first PHP file, but I can't get the file on the 2nd file.
URL:
https://easy2book.000webhostapp.com/neworder.php?bookid=101&title=SENIOR%20secondary%20geography%20fieldwork%20and%20assessment%20practice%202021.%20For%20HKDSE%202021%20/%20Ip%20Kim%20Wai%20...%20[et%20al.].
1st File:
<?php
include_once 'header.php';
$id2 = mysqli_real_escape_string($conn, $_GET['bookid']);
$title2 = mysqli_real_escape_string($conn, $_GET['title']);
?>
<section class="neworder-form">
<h2>Order</h2>
<div class="neworder-form-form">
<form action="neworder.inc.php" method="post">

// Now we insert the user into the database
createUser($conn, $uid2, $id2);

The input fields are disbled, disabled inputs are not posted.
Replace $title2 = $_POST[""]; with $title2 = $_POST["title2"];
Can anyone tell me where my problem is here, this page is linked from edit buttons I have embedded on a table of all entries. However, it is entering the current data into the fields and not updating when I enter new values? Any help appreciated.
php:
<?php
include_once("config.php");
date_default_timezone_set('Europe/London');
//getting id from url
$id = $_GET['id'];
//selecting data associated with this particular id
$EditQuery = "SELECT * FROM ACW WHERE UserID=$id";
$results = sqlsrv_query ($conn, $EditQuery);
while($row = sqlsrv_fetch_array($results, SQLSRV_FETCH_ASSOC))
{
$firstname = $row['FirstName'];
$lastname = $row['LastName'];
$location = $row['location'];
}
if(isset($_POST['update']))
{
$id = $_POST['UserID'];
$firstname = $_POST['FirstName'];
$lastname = $_POST['LastName'];
$location = $_POST['location'];
// checking empty fields
if(empty($firstname) || empty($lastname) || empty($location)) {
if(empty($firstname)) {
echo "<font color='red'>First Name field is empty.</font><br/>";
}
if(empty($lastname)) {
echo "<font color='red'>Last Name field is empty.</font><br/>";
}
if(empty($location)) {
echo "<font color='red'>Location field is empty.</font><br/>";
}
//link to the previous page
echo "<br/><a href='javascript:self.history.back();'>Go Back</a>";
}
if (preg_match("/^[0-9-]+$/",$firstname || $lastname || $location)) {
echo "<font color='red'>Numbers are not valid in these fields</font><br/>";
}
} else {
//updating the table
$UpdateQuery ="UPDATE ACW SET FirstName='$firstname', LastName='$lastname', location='$location' WHERE UserID='$id'";
echo $UpdateQuery;
//echo "<font color='green'>Data has been updated.</font><br/>";
$results = sqlsrv_query ($conn, $UpdateQuery);
}
?>
form:
<form name="form1" method="get" action="edit.php">
<table border="0">
<tr>
<td>First Name</td>
<td><input type="text" name="firstname" value="<?php echo $firstname;?>"></td>
</tr>
<tr>

<tr>

I suggest you make 3 changes:
1.0 Give the form inputs different variable names to the one collected from the database( e.g instead of $firstname give but say $firstname_form)
2.0 Your form has method as GET but you are using POST to update
3.0 Your form action page is edit.php but the fact that you are collecting the item id via GET means that your edit button must be linked to a certain edit.php?id=$item_id Hence the action page should be edit.php?id=$id
c/o your comment: Yes. Exactly what I imagined. So, for your form action replace edit.php with edit.php?id=<?php if(isset($id)){ echo $id; } ?> You are saying that, if the id exist on this page display it as paramater.
I wasn't asking for your link button to be changed. It is correct. To prove that it is correct, echo the id at your edit page like this
if(isset($_GET['id'])){
$id = $_GET['id'];
echo $id;
exit();
}
You can then comment or remove the echo and exit lines after confirming that the id is passed to the edit page.
Now, on your form I was saying that the action should look like this
<form action="edit.php?id=<?php if(isset($id)){ echo $id; } ?>" method="GET" name="form1">
</form>
Adjust the variable names as I suggested earlier as well as changing input verification from POST to GET. Your database should now be updated.
I have made a edit.php file .It seems to work but it only displays error from the echo line (end of the line). I can't seem to find where i have mistyped or have not typed in the coding.
What should I do to fix this?

According to your first screenshot, you use id in the URL instead of songid.
Try changing id to songid, like localhost/songdb/edit.php?songid=14
Propably you defined function but not executed. Please check it:
<?php
/*

// creates the edit record form
// since this form is used multiple times in this file, I have made it a function that is easily reusable
renderForm();

your code has some syntax errors but I fixed it also something to note is I tidied up your code and move some stuff around also noticed you were using MySQL when it is deprecated so I made it MySQLI and I gave you the way to connect to your database also when changing header location it is suggested that you put exit(); afterwards to stop the rest of the PHP code from running

This question already has answers here:
What does enctype='multipart/form-data' mean?
(9 answers)
Closed 6 years ago.
I have a simple registration form, in which I accept inputs from the user that includes an image, and insert the values in a table : temporary_employees table . In my code, I check whether the email id and the user id entered by the user already exists and if they dont , i go ahead and perform the insert after moving the image to a folder named 'images' . While running the code , I am getting an error Undefined index: image, on the line where I have the following piece of code :
$target_file = $target_path . basename ($_FILES['image']['name']);
The most interesting thing is the same line of code has worked perfectly well in another php file . I had given the same name for the input in the html form . . How is it possible ? Any help will be appreciated .

While using Image Uploading in the form you have to use the enctype in the form attribute.
<form action ="" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
</form>
Change
<form action ="" method="POST">
to
<form enctype="multipart/form-data">
And try again.
The enctype attribute specifies how the form-data should be encoded when submitting it to the server.
I want to call php function in form action and i want to pass id as a argument. What I am doing is, in html form database column values will be displayed in text boxes, If I edit those values and click 'update' button values in database should be updated and 'Record updated successfully'message should be displayed in same page. I tried below code but not working. Let me know the solution. Thanks in advance.
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="cms_style.css">
</head>
<?php
$ResumeID = $_GET['id'];
$con = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "");
mysql_select_db("engg",$con);
$sql="SELECT * from data WHERE ResumeID=$ResumeID";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
$Row=mysql_fetch_row($result);
function updateRecord()
{
//If(!isset($_GET['id']))
//{
$NameoftheCandidate=$_POST[NameoftheCandidate];
$TelephoneNo=$_POST[TelephoneNo];
$Email=$_POST[Email];
$sql="UPDATE data SET NameoftheCandidate='$_POST[NameoftheCandidate]', TelephoneNo='$_POST[TelephoneNo]', Email='$_POST[Email]' WHERE ResumeID=$ResumeID ";
if(mysql_query($sql))
echo "<p>Record updated Successfully</p>";
else
echo "<p>Record update failed</p>";
while ($Row=mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
echo ("<td>$Row[ResumeID]</td>");
echo ("<td>$Row[NameoftheCandidate]</td>");
echo ("<td>$Row[TelephoneNo]</td>");
echo ("<td>$Row[Email]</td>");
} // end of while
} // end of update function
?>
<body>
<h2 align="center">Update the Record</h2>
<form align="center" action="updateRecord()" method="post">
<table align="center">
<input type="hidden" name="resumeid" value="<? echo "$Row[1]"?>">
<? echo "<tr> <td> Resume ID </td> <td>$Row[1]</td> </tr>" ?>
<div align="center">
<tr>
<td> Name of the Candidate</td>
<td><input type="text" name="NameoftheCandidate"
size="25" value="<? echo "$Row[0]"? >"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>TelephoneNo</td>
<td><input type="text" name="TelephoneNo" size="25" value="<? echo "$Row[1]"?>"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Email</td>
<td><input type="text" name="Email" size="25" value="<? echo "$Row[3]"?>">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td align="center"><input type="submit" name="submitvalue" value="UPDATE" ></td>
</tr>
</div>
</table>
</form>
</body>
</html>
try this way
HTML
<form align="center" action="yourpage.php?func_name=updateRecord" method="post">
PHP
$form_action_func = $_POST['func_name'];
if (function_exists($form_action_func)) {
updateRecord();
}
write form action="" and then write your php code as below
note : use form method as get
<?php
if(isset($_GET['id']))
{
call your function here
}
?>
in function access all values using $_GET['fieldname']
simple way make your "Submit " and "Update" action performed on same page then
if(isset($_POST['update']))
{
//perform update task
update($var1,var2,$etc); // pass variables to function
header('Location: http://www.example.com/');// link to your form
}
else if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
//perform update task
submit($var1,$var2,$etc);// pass variables to function
header('Location: http://www.example.com/'); // link to next page after submit successfully
}
else
{
// display form
}
