Writing Variables

[mikieo]

Hi PHP freaks - I'm new to PHP and programming in general so excuse my lameness - basically I'm trying to create a web page that asks me for a device name (from a drop down list) and a port id (again from a drop down list) and a status choice up or down. I want to pass this information to a predefined script file – the script file is below and I’ve highlighted the parts I need to be changed by the web page…. Any help or pointers appreciated. - basically NAGIOSTEST is the device, port id can be anything from fa0/00 to fa0/48 and the status is controlled by the shutdown (which can be shutdown or noshutdown).

wait "[!--coloro:#FF0000--][span style=\"color:#FF0000\"][!--/coloro--]NAGIOSTEST[!--coloro:#000000--][span style=\"color:#000000\"][!--/coloro--]>[!--colorc--][/span][!--/colorc--][!--colorc--][/span][!--/colorc--]"
send "en\m"
wait "Password:"
send "****"
wait "[!--coloro:#FF0000--][span style=\"color:#FF0000\"][!--/coloro--]NAGIOSTEST[!--colorc--][/span][!--/colorc--]#"
send "conf t\m"
wait "[!--coloro:#FF0000--][span style=\"color:#FF0000\"][!--/coloro--]NAGIOSTEST[!--colorc--][/span][!--/colorc--](config)#"
send "[!--coloro:#FF0000--][span style=\"color:#FF0000\"][!--/coloro--][!--coloro:#000000--][span style=\"color:#000000\"][!--/coloro--]int [!--colorc--][/span][!--/colorc--]fa0/09[!--colorc--][/span][!--/colorc--]\m"

wait "[!--coloro:#FF0000--][span style=\"color:#FF0000\"][!--/coloro--]NAGIOSTEST[!--colorc--][/span][!--/colorc--](config-if)#"
