So, I have a PHP document that first validates, then emails the contents of a form to me.

 

Here is the script:

 

<?php

// get posted data into local variables
$FirstName = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['FirstName'])); 
$LastName = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['LastName']));
$Email = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['Email']));
$ConfirmEmail = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['ConfirmEmail'])); 
$PhoneNumber = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['PhoneNumber'])); 
$Company = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['Company'])); 
$CompanyWebsite = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['CompanyWebsite']));
$Country = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['Country']));
$StateProvince = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['State/Province']));
$ZipCode = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['ZipCode']));
$moreinfo = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['moreinfo']));
$LogoDesignCheck = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['LogoDesign']));
$WebDesignCheck = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['WebDesign']));
$PrintDesignCheck = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['PrintDesign']));
$PhotoVideoCheck = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['PhotoVideo']));
$OtherCheck = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['Other']));
$NoneCheck = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['None']));
$budget = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['budget']));
$quote = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['quote']));
$EmailFrom = "$Email";
$EmailTo = "[email protected]";
$Subject = "Contact Message from $Company";
$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];


// validation
$validationOK=true;
if (!$validationOK) {
print "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;URL=contact.html\">";
exit;
}

// check that required fields are complete:

//First Name
if ($FirstName == 'First Name') {
echo "<script>alert('Please complete all required fields and try again.')</script>";
print "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;URL=contact.html\">";

The problem is, if the user messes up and gets an error, all of the form information they entered is erased. Is there a way to post the information back from the PHP document to the HTML page?

 

Here is the contact form, feel free to try it out with fake info:

 

http://thegraphicfaction.host56.com/contact.html

 

Here is the HTML of the contact form:

if you stop the form from submitting and validate via javascript you will not have this problem.

 

What you do is write your validation in Javascript then when the user goes to submit the form you fire the Javascript function and it validates the input if anything is incorrect the form will not submit and the user must fix the information.

 

Since the use never left the page none of the information is missing.

 

 

I would also do redundant validation via php incase the user isn't using javascript for w/e reason.

Then the user would loose the information but atleast you could still force them to enter it correctly.

lol i thought you might say that.. nobody wants to rewrite code...

 

sigh.. u could create a session and store the users input into the session then setup the form to populate the input fields using the session data.. if it exists...

 

 

the easiest way would be to pack the data into an array then serialize the array and stick it in the session

 

$Input = array($value1, value2, ect...);

$_SESSION['Input'] = $Input;

 

 

Then in your forms...

 

<input type='text' name='Value1' value='$_SESSION["Input"][0]' />

 

This would be done before submitting the page so the information is stored first.

Yeah. This is my second time ever writing PHP and when everything worked I was so excited.... So I would be disappointed if all that work was for nothing.

 

And thanks for the session idea, I have never heard of them but I found a tutorial and hopefully it works...
