Was hoping for some fresh eyes on this. I've got a page which will add a new event to a database. All 3 fields are required, so if they are empty when the submit button is pushed the error message should appear. Anyone know why it isn't showing the error message? Thanks in advance!
Here's the code:

You have the submit name as "submit_event"
So you must use
if (isset($_POST['submit_event'])) {
.
.
.
}
Hope it helps
Try adding
<input type="hidden" name="submit" value="1" />
to your form. The $_POST array does not have a 'submit' value in the code you have provided, so it's just going to display the form again.
Related
The "newvar_" values for "029, 032 and 033" are not being remembered during error-checking, nor are they being posted when a corrected form is submitted.
The "name" field works correctly both on error checking and posting.
The form default for the all checkboxes is not selected.
The user should be able to select only the forms they wish. Their selection should post to the txt file along with their name.
The validation library am using can be found at: http://www.benjaminkeen.com/software/php_validation
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

The values of $Form_F_029, _032, _033 are never set.
You copied the POST variables into $fields:
$fields = $_POST;
So this worked as intended:
<input type="text" name="name" id="name" value="<?=$fields['name']?>" />
But uses of $Form_F_0xx are treated as null, undefined or false depending on context:
<input type="checkbox" id="Form_F_029" name="Form_F_029" <?php if($Form_F_029 == "on"){echo "CHECKED";}?> />
You could fix this by setting
$Form_F_029 = $fields['Form_F_029'];
or
$Form_F_029 = $_POST['Form_F_029'];
etc.
For debugging problems like this it can help to include the values of variables and arrays in your output, for example in a comment or pre tag:
echo "<!-- 29= $Form_F_029, 32 = $Form_F_032 -->"; // DEBUGGING
echo "<pre>- 29= $Form_F_029, 32 = $Form_F_032 </pre>"; // DEBUGGING
Just remember to delete them or comment them out later.
I am making social project form and im trying to add reply ..the reply button is a link that sends user to reply.php page with post id saved in href...on the reply.php my form action is the same page but when i click button to submit form it doesnot get the id and refreshes page with post and display error undefined id need help..

Reply
If I understand correct you need to be able to read your "id" variable after you post the form. To achieve this use $_REQUEST instead of $_GET, like this:
$id = $_REQUEST['id'];
And also pass the variable with your form, as a hidden field:
<form action="reply.php" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="id" value="<?php echo $id; ?>" />
<input type="text" name="reply" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="reply" />
</form>
You didn't check if the fom was submitted
Enclose other PHP code after session.php inside a conditional checker such as:
if ($_POST):
You can use form tags to create a form and put the id field as hidden.
GET requests shouldn't be use to modify data
so I'm new to php and I have two buttons on this html page here (the id value is included in the url):

And I always get "failed" printed out on my page. I've been Googling this for hours and I don't understand where I'm going wrong here. If anybody could help that would be appreciated. Also, if anyone could shed some light on what the equivalent to
<input type="textarea">
would be that would be great. Thanks!
Use
<input type="submit" name="draftBtn" value="Save as Draft"/>
instead of the button types with their onclick events.
try to use submit tag instead of button.
and if you want to use button tag then you can pass value through hidden field. set value of hidden field on click event.

// You do not need to edit below this line

I get errors at the top of the page, as well as when i submit the form, the email i get only has the messagebox text, not the name or email.
I have tried everything i could think of, however it still fails to send anything except the msg variable.
Thanks :)
change
$name = stripslashes($_POST['txtName']);
$email = stripslashes($_POST['txtEmail']);
$message = stripslashes($_POST['txtMessage']);
To,
$name = (isset($_POST['txtName']))?stripslashes($_POST['txtName']):"";
$email = (isset($_POST['txtEmail']))?stripslashes($_POST['txtEmail']):"";
$message = (isset($_POST['txtMessage']))?stripslashes($_POST['txtMessage']):"";
To avoid the warnings at the top.
Use
like this
if(isset($_POST['txtName'])
{
$name = stripslashes($_POST['txtName']);
}
I'm trying to write a form for User Information to keep track of who downloads files from my website.
I downloaded a PHP form validator from this website and I tried to mimic the example 3 with client-side validation and here is what I came up with (please excuse the length, but I figured it was necessary for understanding everything):
<?php
require_once(ABSPATH. '/wp-includes/FormValidator/include/formvalidator.php');
$validation_errors='';
if(isset($_POST['submitButton']))
{// We need to validate only after the form is submitted
//Setup Server side Validations
//Please note that the element name is case sensitive
$validator = new FormValidator();
$validator->addValidation("firstname","req","Please fill in your First Name");
$validator->addValidation("firstname","alpha","Only letters a-z/A-Z are allowed for your First Name");
$validator->addValidation("lasttname","req","Please fill in your Last Name");
$validator->addValidation("lastname","alpha","Only letters a-z/A-Z are allowed for your Last Name");
//Then validate the form
if($validator->ValidateForm())
{
//If the validations succeeded, proceed with form processing
addUserDataToDB();
}
else
{
//Validations failed. Display Errors.
$error_hash = $validator->GetErrors();
foreach($error_hash as $inpname => $inp_err)
{
$validation_errors .= "<p>$inpname : $inp_err</p>\n";
}
}
}//if
$first_name = isset($_POST['firstname'])?$_POST['firstname']:'';
$last_name = isset($_POST['lastname'])?$_POST['lastname']:'';

All that happens is the page refreshes, no errors or validations, and it doesn't seem to write to $wpdb because I have an admin page that queries the db table and it comes up empty (it also doesn't wp_redirect() like it should). Also for some reason it cannot find the javascript file even though the address looks correct.
