php fwrite & fopen problem

DEVILofDARKNESS · January 31, 2009

I can't find what's wrong, it is always added to my database like it should,

but if I open the url it says

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /www/uuuq.com/4/a/d/4ade/htdocs/gedichten/test/test2.php on line 16

,

if you submit the form well, it should create a file (fopen("$url.php",x) and then write into it the $purl content which is a new php document. fwrite($new,$purl)?

<html>

You are using PHP inside of the "te" HEREDOC tags.

DEVILofDARKNESS · January 31, 2009

How can I else make a php page with the form?

what do you sugest

RichardRotterdam · January 31, 2009

this

</html>
te;


if($_POST['submit']) {

makes no sence at all

it needs a php tag in front of if()

DEVILofDARKNESS · February 1, 2009

nobody can help me?

I need a php file created in an other php file?

==> 2 <?php ?> tags ?

DEVILofDARKNESS · February 1, 2009

I have looked over and over, but I can't figure out how I can fix it?

The php stops when it views the first ?> tag, and it should stop at the second.

how can I fix that problem?

Don't make sense, as stated before by Dj Kat.

trq · February 1, 2009

Why exactly are you trying to generate php files dynamically in the first place? Seems your logic may need to be rethought.

DEVILofDARKNESS · February 1, 2009

I will explain,

The meaning is that, users can give their name, the name of the text and the text. if they submit the form, it should autocreate a new page with that text on it, the text now is just created in plain html, but I want to let it come from the database, so that I can change the text, just from there.

Can you follow a bit?

trq · February 1, 2009

Take a look at this thread and some of my replies in there. Your really going about this completely the wrong way.

DEVILofDARKNESS · February 1, 2009

I really don't get it,

I'm just to stupid, I guess.

RichardRotterdam · February 3, 2009

Like the others said you're missing the point from what I see you are trying to achieve the following(correct me if I am wrong)

You want to build a form where random people can submit their poems.

If form is filled in correctly and without empty fields you want the poem to be stored into the database.

If there was something left out that the user left out you want the form to be shown again butttttttt! with the values that where previously filled in already in the fields.

So what you are probably looking for is form validation.

And it's a lot easier if you just show the list of already stored poems in a separate page. From there you can just put a link "edit" to go the edit page.

DEVILofDARKNESS · February 4, 2009

Naah, I want that if a user (or visitor) submits the form without any field left blank,

that the 'php script' autogenerate a new page, whit a query to the database to get the submitted text?

Or otherwise, how can I use one url to show more than one poem.

if you click on <link>first link</link> or <link>second</link> you go to the same page,

but it shows an other content.

A bit difficult explained, but I do my best

RichardRotterdam · February 5, 2009

Do you got link of something that looks like what you are trying to do maybe?

Heredoc syntax.

Heredoc syntax.

http://us3.php.net/types.string

Funny how they do not bother to read every entry, they would have learned that a while ago.

You are using PHP inside of the "te" HEREDOC tags.

RichardRotterdam · February 5, 2009

Funny how they do not bother to read every entry, they would have learned that a while ago.

Did read all the entries and knew what it was, just didn't knew it was called heredoc and was too lazy too read all the code.

Oh well lesson learned.

DEVILofDARKNESS · February 5, 2009

And can anybody give me an explaination,?

example:

if you click on link 1 you goto /link.php, this shows you the text from a database that's from link1

if you click on link 2 you goto the same page but this time it need to show the text from link2

is this possible?

premiso · February 5, 2009

<a href="link.php?item=1">link1</a>
<a href="link.php?item=2">link2</a>

link.php code

<?php
if (isset($_GET['item'])) {
   $item = (int)$_GET['item'];
}else {
   $item = 1;
}

switch ($item) {
    default:
    case 1:
          // item 1 coding here.
   break;
   case 2:
          // item 2 coding here
   break;
}
?>

And can anybody give me an explaination,?

I posted a link to another thread in my second reply that explains this by example.
