willscarlet

im glad i came here, I would have been all messed up had i got this to somehow work right it seems. Well, thank you guys for your help. Seems like I will be trying this again from scratch

Oh im sorry, I guess i was misleading before, I had built an old CMS years ago using PHP/MySQL now im trying to get back into it all and im finding that MySQL is no longer suggested so im xfering everything over to PDO and updating my general coding standards. So alllll that being said this is new code that I kinda pieced together from tutorials, ive never used this code before but it looked like it was fairly straight forward and good. Just looking for a simple bot safe contact form really.

awesome, ill see what all it takes to update it on my webserver, but if thats the only problem then awesome thanks a bunch

Hi guys, im updating all my old php/MySQL to newer coding standards (or trying to at least). So heres what I have so far. The form makes you enter all the required fields but instead of it sending the message, it just appends it all to the address bar after refreshing the page. Im not sure exactly whats wrong with it but this is kinda new to me so any help would be greatly appreciated EDIT: Im getting this error now, im sure its something simple but im just not seeing it. i dont see where or how to load this dynamic library. [21-Nov-2016 13:36:28] PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/php/54/usr/lib64/php/modules/imagick.so' - /usr/php/54/usr/lib64/php/modules/imagick.so: undefined symbol: zend_new_interned_string in Unknown on line 0 <script> function _(id){ return document.getElementById(id); } function submitForm(){ _("mybtn").disabled = true; _("status").innerHTML = 'Please Wait...'; var formdata = new FormData(); formdata.append( "n", _("n").value ); formdata.append( "e", _("e").value ); formdata.append( "p", _("p").value ); formdata.append( "m", _("m").value ); var ajax = new XMLHttpRequest(); ajax.open( "POST", "parser.php" ); ajax.onreadystatechange = function() { if(ajax.readyState == 4 && ajax.status == 200) { if(ajax.responseText == "success"){ _("my_form").innerHTML = '<h2>Thanks '+_("n").value+', your message has been sent.</h2>'; } else { _("status").innerHTML = ajax.responseText; _("mybtn").disabled = false; } } } ajax.send( formdata ); } </script> <div class="contact-grid agileits w3layouts"> <form id="my_form" onsubmit="submitForm(); returm false;"> <input type="text" id="n" class="text agileits w3layouts" name="Name" placeholder="YOUR NAME" required=""> <input type="email" id="e" class="text agileits w3layouts email" name="Email" placeholder="YOUR EMAIL" required=""> <input type="text" id="p" class="text agileits w3layouts" name="Phone" placeholder="YOUR PHONE" required=""> <textarea name="Message" id="m" placeholder="MESSAGE" required=""></textarea> <input type="submit" id="mybtn" class="more_btn agileits w3layouts" value="SEND MESSAGE"><span id="status"></span> </form> </div> And here is the parser. <?php if( isset($_POST['n']) && isset($_POST['e']) && isset($_POST['m']) ){ $n = $_POST['n']; $e = $_POST['e']; $m = nl2br($_POST['m']); $to = "[email protected]"; $from = $e; $subject = 'Online Contact Form'; $message = '<b>Name:</b> '.$n.' <br><b>Email:</b> '.$e.' <br><b>Phone:</b> '.$p.'<p>'.$m.'</p>'; $headers = "From: $from\n"; $headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\n"; $headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\n"; if( mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers) ){ echo "success"; } else { echo "The server failed to send the message. Please try again later."; } } ?>

Awesome. will do. thank you as well for the advice ive not messed with PHP in a very long time, so You guys will likely see me posting more frequently when im screwing something up.

Ah, I see it now. Im sorry to have bothered you guys with it, ive been staring at this project so long it just all ran together I guess. needed to replace :name with :student_name. Thanks for humoring me

New to PDO having trouble with a simple UPDATE feature. Im sure its a simple thing im just over looking it. any help would be much appreciated <?php require_once('dbcon.php'); if(isset($_POST['btn_submit'])){ $student_id = $_POST['txt_student_id']; $student_name = $_POST['txt_student_name']; $age = $_POST['txt_age']; $email = $_POST['txt_email']; $address = $_POST['txt_address']; $dob = $_POST['txt_dob']; if(!empty($student_name)){ try { $stmt = $con->prepare("UPDATE tb_students set student_name= :name, age = :age, email = :email, address = :address, dob = :dob WHERE student_id = :student_id"); $stmt->execute(array(':student_name'=>$student_name, ':age'=>$age, ':email'=>$email, ':address'=>$address, ':dob'=>$dob, ':student_id'=>$student_id)); if($stmt){ header('Location:index.php'); } }catch(PDOException $ex){ echo $ex->getmessage(); } }else{ echo "INPUT NAME"; } } $student_id = 0; $student_name = ''; $age = 0; $email = ''; $address = ''; $dob = ''; if(isset($_GET['id'])){ $id = $_GET['id']; $stmt = $con->prepare('SELECT * FROM tb_students WHERE student_id = :id'); $stmt->execute(array(':id'=>$id)); $row = $stmt->fetch(); $student_id = $row['student_id']; $student_name = $row['student_name']; $age = $row['age']; $email = $row['email']; $address = $row['address']; $dob = $row['dob']; } ?> <h2>Edit Student</h2> <form action="" method="post"> <table cellpadding="5px"> <tr> <tr> <td>Student Name</td> <td><input type="text" name="txt_student_name" value="<?=$student_name;?>"></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Age</td> <td><input type="text" name="txt_age" value="<?=$age;?>"></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Email</td> <td><input type="text" name="txt_email" value="<?=$email;?>"></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Address</td> <td><input type="text" name="txt_address" value="<?=$address;?>"></td> </tr> <tr> <td>D.O.B</td> <td><input type="text" name="txt_dob" value="<?=$dob;?>"></td> </tr> <tr> <td></td> <td><input type="hidden" name="txt_student_id" value="<?=$student_id;?>"></td> <td><input type="submit" name="btn_submit"></td> </tr> </table> </form>
