[SOLVED] hidden field dont get posted with function

[StefanRSA]

I wrote a js function and am trying to $_Post the value of a hidden field to a form.

The function do fire of the php in the background but my hidden field value does not go thru... Can anybody help?

 

(I know this is partly JS and PHP but I get no help in the JS forums)

 

function deleteFileUpload(upload_field){
// Checking file type
var filename = document.pictureForm.delimage1.value;
document.getElementById('picture_preview').innerHTML = '<div><img src="../images/loader_light_blue.gif" border="0" /></div>';
upload_field.form.action = 'imagedelete.php';
upload_field.form.target = 'upload_iframe';
upload_field.form.submit();
upload_field.form.action = '';
upload_field.form.target = '';
return true;
}

My hidden field with submit button is:

<input type=\"hidden\" id=\"delimage1\" value=\"$dbimgname\" name=\"delimage1\"/><input type=\"submit\" value=\"Delete Image\" onClick=\"return deleteFileUpload(this);\">

 

The "imagedelete.php" form looks as follow:

<?PHP

$deleteimage = $_POST['filename'];
$filename = "../ad_images/$deleteimage";
$filename1 = "../ad_images/130/$deleteimage";
$filename2 = "../ad_images/65/$deleteimage";
unlink($filename);
unlink($filename1);
unlink($filename2);

// This is a PHP code outputing Javascript code.
echo '<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">'."\n";
echo 'var parDoc = window.parent.document;';

$deletebutton = '';
echo "parDoc.getElementById('picture_error').innerHTML = '<input type=\"file\" name=\"img1\" id=\"picture\" onchange=\"return ajaxFileUpload(this);\" />';";
if($dbimgname = '') {
echo "parDoc.getElementById('picture_preview').innerHTML = '';";
}

echo "\n".'</script>';
exit(); // do not go futher

?>

Hi StefanRSA,

 

You PHP code has:

 

$deleteimage = $_POST['filename'];

 

But from the name you've given your hidden input field it shoul dbe:

 

$deleteimage = $_POST['delimage1'];

 

Hope this helps.
