markbett Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 this is suppose to be processing a dynamically created formi check to make sure the form is creating the right values for the text boxes that are being processed[code] <table width="60%" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td colspan="2" class="box_title">Guest 1</td> </tr> <tr> <td class="event_text">Name:</td> <td><input name="guest_name1" type="text" class="event_desc" id="guest_name1" value="" size="30" maxlength="50"></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="event_text">E-mail Address: </td> <td><input name="guest_email1" type="text" class="event_desc" id="guest_email1" size="30"></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="event_text">Confirm Email: </td> <td><input name="guest_veri1" type="text" class="event_desc" id="guest_veri1" size="30" maxlength="50"></td> </tr> </table>[/code]for some reason it always says there is an error though...[code]<? $errors = false; $i='1'; $guests=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['guests']); $guest_array = array(); while($i<=$guests){ if(!$_POST[${guest_name.$i}] || !$_POST[${guest_email.$i}] || !$_POST[${guest_veri.$i}]){ $error .= "Oops. It looks like something bad happened when you provided us with". " your guests information."; $errors = true; if(!$_POST[${guest_name.$i}]){ $error .= "You forgot to enter in guest $i's name.\n"; } if(!$_POST[${guest_email.$i}]){ $error .= "You forgot to enter in guest $i's email address.\n"; $email_error = true; } if(!$_POST[${guest_veri.$i}]){ $error .= "You forgot to verify guest $i's email address.\n"; $email_error = true; } } //closes the checks to see that all fields were filled in if($email_error == false){ if($_POST[${guest_email.$i}] != $_POST[${guest_veri.$i}]){ $errors = true; $error .= "The e-mail addresses do not match!\n"; $email_error = true; } } //check to make sure the email addresses are valid if(validate_email($guest_email1)){ $errors = true; $error .= "The e-mail address for guest $i does not appear to be valid!\n"; $email_error = true; } //all error checking is done //move on to the next guest $i++; } //check to see if an error occured while checking the guests information if($errors == true){ $error = nl2br($error); include $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/sbqa/html/forms/guests.htm'; //spit them back to the form footer(); exit(); }[/code] Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/21029-why-does-this-always-throw-an-error/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

markbett Posted September 17, 2006 Author Share Posted September 17, 2006 got it... for those that endevor down a similar path the code that works is: while($i<=$guests){ if(!$_POST["{guest_name".$i] || !$_POST["guest_email".$i] || !$_POST["guest_veri".$i]){ $error .= "Oops. It looks like something bad happened when you provided us with". " your guests information.".$_POST['${guest_name.$i}\n']; $errors = true; if(!$_POST["{guest_name".$i]){ $error .= "You forgot to enter in guest $i's name.\n"; } if(!$_POST["guest_email".$i]){ $error .= "You forgot to enter in guest $i's email address.\n"; $email_error = true; } if(!$_POST["guest_veri".$i]){ $error .= "You forgot to verify guest $i's email address.\n"; $email_error = true; } } //closes the checks to see that all fields were filled in if($email_error == false){ if($_POST["guest_email".$i] != $_POST["guest_veri".$i]){ $errors = true; $error .= "The e-mail addresses do not match!\n"; $email_error = true; } } //check to make sure the email addresses are valid if(validate_email($_POST["guest_veri".$i])){ $errors = true; $error .= "The e-mail address for guest $i does not appear to be valid!\n"; $email_error = true; } //all error checking is done //move on to the next guest $i++; } Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/21029-why-does-this-always-throw-an-error/#findComment-93341 Share on other sites More sharing options...
