Joomla: Php form in module. _POST issue


JMair

Recommended Posts

I using a current version of Joomla and have an extension that allows me to use php/html script in modules. I'm trying to add a simple input box and submit botton that writes toa text file. I'm trying to do it one script. The script writes to the text file, but the POST doesn't grab the info. Where am I'm messing up?

 

Thanks


<html>
<body>

<form method="POST" name="update_events" 
action="<?php echo htmlentities($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); ?>" enctype="multipart/form-data"> 

<p>Date:<input type="text" name="q1" id="q1" />
  Event:<input type="text" name="q2" id="q2" />
</p>
<p>
  <input type="submit" value="Submit" name='submit'>
                      </p>
</form>
</p>
<p>
<?php
$filename = 'shared documents of/dmead/events.txt';
$fh = fopen($filename, 'a') or die("can't open file");

$somecontent = "<B>".$_POST["q1"].": ". $_POST["q2"]."/n";

if (!$handle = fopen($filename, 'a')) {
	echo "Cannot open file ($filename)";
	exit;
	}

// Write $somecontent to our opened file.
if (fwrite($handle, $somecontent) === FALSE) {
echo "Cannot write to file ($filename)";
exit;
}

fclose($handle);
//END record
?>
</body>
</html>
