aldm Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Hi, I have Apache server installed on my computer and I'm learning PHP. I have a HTML form with following code: <html> <head> <title>Forma</title> </head> <body> <form action="F:\xampp\htdocs\phpinfo.php" method="POST"> <br>Unesite tekst: <br><input type="text" name="podatak" value=""> <br><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Posalji"> </form> </body> </html> Code of phpinfo.php file: <?php phpinfo(); ?> When I click on "Posalji" button, firefox gives me next alert: Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (f) isn't associated with any program. Has anyone idea how could I solve this problem? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldm Posted August 12, 2009 Author Share Posted August 12, 2009 When I change path ("F:\xampp\htdocs\phpinfo.php") to "phpinfo" and click on "Posalji" button, I get blank page. I also changed phpinfo.php file to: <?php echo 'Something'; ?> but with no result (still, there is a blank page when I click on button) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildteen88 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 F:\xampp\htdocs\phpinfo.php should be phpinfo.php All code HTML/PHP needs to be saved in F:\xampp\htdocs You go to http://localhost to run your HTML/PHP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldm Posted August 12, 2009 Author Share Posted August 12, 2009 I save both files (forma.html and phpinfo.php) in F:\xampp\htdocs and action is "phpinfo.php". When I type localhost/phpinfo.php in my browser, it works, but with click on button, it doesn't works. It shows me a blank page with adress: file:///F:/xampp/htdocs/phpinfo.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildteen88 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 That because the form action needs to be <form action="phpinfo.php" method="POST"> Now to run your form open your browser and go to http://localhost/forma.html Do not double click your files from within Windows Explorer to open in your browser. You must go to http://localhost to run your html/php files. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
