[email protected] Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Hi im a newbie php developer and am experiencing two problems at the moment. The first and most important is that google charts can not save over https i have copied a function that should save the file but i am clueless as to how it work s and where i am going wrong with it ??? any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Secondly every time i hit submit the page first posts data and then i have to submit again before it posts the data to google charts api ? Again any help would be greatly appreciated Thanks in advance ill add all the code here for you guys. Saving the google chart api function saveImage($chart_url,$path,$file_name) { if ( (!file_exists($path.$filename)) || (md5_file($path.$filename) != md5_file($chart_url)) ) { file_put_contents($path.$filename,file_get_contents($chat_url)); } return($filename); } function doSomething() { $local_image_path ="home/sean/img/charts/"; $imagename="some_chart_image.png"; $chart_url = $chartimage; $image = saveImage($chart_url ,$local_image_path,$image_name); echo "Image Saved"; } $body .= "<table class='formTABLE'> <tr> <TD class='FieldCaptionTD' align='right' colspan='2'> <input class='Button' method='post' action='' align='right' type='submit' name='save_file' value='Save'> <input class='Button' method='post' action='' align='right' type='submit' name='submit_button' value='Submit'> </center> </TD> </tr> </table>"; $body .= htmlmaintsplit(); ?> <img src="/home/sean/work/some_chart_image.png" alt="" /> How am i to use this now to save the graph i have created ??? Relating to the submit button problem - this is set after the submit button though i have tried placing the submit button beneath this code but still the same problem persists <form action='<?php echo $action?>' method='POST' name='bargraph' value='bargraph' chid='post_form' onsubmit="this.action = 'http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?chid=' + (new Date()).getMilliseconds(); return true;"> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/213553-https-save-and-submit-problem/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
micah1701 Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 I didn't look through all your code to see what else could be causing your problem but the first thing that sticks out is that in: <?php function saveImage($chart_url,$path,$file_name) { if ( (!file_exists($path.$filename)) || (md5_file($path.$filename) != md5_file($chart_url)) ) { file_put_contents($path.$filename,file_get_contents($chat_url)); } return($filename); }?> Notice the variable name in the functions parameters list is "$file_name" but in the rest of the function, you're looking for a variable named "$filename" (without the under_score). Trying replacing "$file_name" with "$filename" and see if that helps. You may have more problems after that, but its a start Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/213553-https-save-and-submit-problem/#findComment-1111760 Share on other sites More sharing options...
