[SOLVED] Popup Message after form submitted

[karl_009]

Hello,

 

I have this code and it displays messages after the form is submitted, how I would go about redirecting this to another page and a popup message saying successful.

 

I believe it will be the IF statement at the end that I will need to update?

 

Here is the code that I am using now;

 

<?php
require ($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."cmstesting/config/db_config.php");
$connection = mysql_connect ($db_host, $db_user, $db_pass) or die ("Error with Connection");
mysql_select_db ($db_name, $connection);

	$conid = $_POST["conid"];
	$submitted = $_POST["submitted"];

$query = "UPDATE contacts SET title='{$_POST["title"]}', first='{$_POST["first"]}', last='{$_POST["last"]}', suffix='{$_POST["suffix"]}', company='{$_POST["company"]}', address1='{$_POST["address1"]}', address2='{$_POST["address2"]}', city='{$_POST["city"]}', town='{$_POST["town"]}', country='{$_POST["country"]}', postcode='{$_POST["postcode"]}', website='{$_POST["website"]}', email='{$_POST["email"]}', hp1='{$_POST["hp1"]}', hp2='{$_POST["hp2"]}', hp3='{$_POST["hp3"]}', mp1='{$_POST["mp1"]}', mp2='{$_POST["mp2"]}', mp3='{$_POST["mp3"]}', notes='{$_POST["notes"]}' WHERE conid='$conid'";

	$result = mysql_query($query);

if ($result)
{
echo "Successful";
echo "<BR>";
echo "<a href='contact_view.php'>View</a>";
}
else
{
echo "ERROR";
}

?>

 

Thanks

if ($result)
   {
   header("Location: http://$host$uri/contact_view.php");
   }

 

 

Because you're using header function, you need to have this at the top of your script,

you cannot output anything before the header function....

Thanks for that, the page now redirects to the page...

 

Is there away to have a popup message popup, then continue on to the page...

 

<?php
if ($result)
{
//	echo "Successful";
//	echo "<BR>";
//	echo "<a href='contact_view.php'>View</a>";

echo "<script type='text/javascript'>alert('Successful')</script>";
header("Location: http://localhost/cmstesting/contact_view.php");
}
else
{
echo "ERROR";
}

?>

 

 

I have included;

echo "<script type='text/javascript'>alert('Successful')</script>";

 

Is there away to execute this code then the header code after this has been OK...

 

Many Thanks

No, what you should do is load that script on the new page on the top...this way right

before the new page loads, you load the pop up...

I found a solution, it did not use PHP but I thought I would post it anyway.

 

<?php
if ($result)
{
// Successful popup message, redirected back to view contacts
echo "<script type='text/javascript'>alert('Successful - Record Updated!'); window.location.href = 'contact_view.php';</script>";
}
else
{
// Unsuccessful popup message, redirected back to view contacts
echo "<script type='text/javascript'>alert('Unsuccessful - ERROR!'); window.location.href = 'contact_view.php';</script>";
}
?>

 

Thanks for the replies

Good script, I will save that script myself for future purposes...
