Help with IF statement

Davecachia · August 14, 2008

I am trying to read in my values from an HTML form into my PHP file.

Someone on the board gave me this if statement to work with:

if( isset( $_POST['process_form'] ) )

Now I assume 'process_form' must be the value of the submit button.

I am not sure what the isset means.

The submit button has the value 'process_form however, it is not running through my if statement.

Here's the code.:

$_POST['process_form'] refers to an input field in your form named process_form, not with the value of 'process_form'

<input type="submit" value="process_form" />

needs to be

<input type="submit" name="process_form" value="Submit" />

Thanks for the help. I'll give it a whirl.

Changed it -

Still a no go.

Seems as if it is not running the IF statement because in the bottom area in the code I output "TEST TEST TEST". I am guessing the variables are null (surprised it doesn't crash when a variable is null like in most programming languages?).

Any other suggestions?

webref.eu · August 14, 2008

Isset means "is this variable set" or "does this variable have a value". The problem is, as your code stands you do not have a variable named process_form, so add in a name attribute:

<input type="submit" name="process_form" value="process_form" />

Note that your code is just asking "Does process_form have a value", so actually the value could be anything, i.e.

<input type="submit" name="process_form" value="1" />

should work too. You could then change your main if statement to:

if ($_POST['process_form'] == 1) {

if you want more readable code.

Isset means "is this variable set" or "does this variable have a value".

isset only checks to see if a variable exists. It does not check to see if the variable has a value

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_IS_EQUAL, expecting ',' or ')' in /home2/dcncs/public_html/survey.php on line 14 when you change the submit button to value = 1

Davecachia · August 14, 2008

else( isset( $_POST['process_form'] ) )

{

still not running through.

I think its because there is no action there.

Between the ] and )

webref.eu · August 14, 2008

OK, let's do it the way I would:

Change your submit button back to this:

<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />

Add this hidden field to the form:

<input type="hidden" name="process_form" value="1">

Change your main If statement to:

If ($_POST['process_form'] == 1) {

This way the form processing is controlled by the hidden field.

<?php

echo "TEST TEST TEST";

echo $CompanyName;

echo $CompanySize;

?>

The statements work.

The values of $CompanyName and $CompanySize are null so they are not being reported - so it is still not successfully going through the if statement.

webref.eu · August 14, 2008

I think you need a space after all your echos, i.e.

Name: <?php echo$_POST["CompanyName"]; ?>.<br />

Becomes:

Name: <?php echo $_POST["CompanyName"]; ?>.<br />

Rgds

Davecachia · August 14, 2008

No problem with the spaces there. The problem lies in the IF statement at the top as it is not reading in the variables.

And because the if statements aren't being read, the variables are not being stored.

webref.eu · August 14, 2008

Also, the action type of your form is POST, so:

$CompanyName = $_GET['CompanyName'];

should be:

$CompanyName = $_POST['CompanyName'];

Rgds

webref.eu · August 14, 2008

You need a space before method, i.e. should be:

<form id="Survey" name="Survey" form action="survey.php" method="post" >

Rgds

Davecachia · August 14, 2008

Also, the action type of your form is POST, so:
$CompanyName = $_GET['CompanyName'];
should be:
$CompanyName = $_POST['CompanyName'];
Rgds

I've changed it to both GET and both POST and still no results.

Changed the HTML code as well to

Still no results.

webref.eu · August 14, 2008

I have modified the files and tried them on my server and it is now producing some output. There may be further issues with your code but hopefully this will give you some help:

Thanks I will give it a shot.

Do you know what was wrong with it? And what further issues do you think are there?

At the top of the survey.php script, put

<?php
echo '<pre>' . print_r($_POST,true) . '</pre>';
?>

This will dump all the values that are being returned to the script from the form.

I have stuck with the original technique of recognising that the form was posted, other than that the problems were as I detailed in earlier posts.

It was working for a minute.. I changed something that should have no bearing on that (just changed the wording of something and its not working again.)

It doesn't like this:

<?php

echo $CompanyName;

echo $CompanySize;

echo $IndustryType;

?>

It will work with JUST company name, but if I put the other two in, it will not display Company name or any of them for that matter
