Problem with php reply form...

coolcam26 · November 26, 2010

Hi,

I have made personal messaging system however I can't reply unless it is to the last message! I think I've messed up the looping somewhere but can you see if you can figure out what's wrong with it?

This is the code for the inbox page:

<?php require('scripts/top.php'); ?>
<title>Spares List | Your Messages</title>
<div id='full'>
<?php
if ($username){
echo "<a href='create_message.php'>Create Message</a>

	$numrows = mysql_num_rows($query);
	if ($numrows > 0){

I hope you can work out what is wrong as I am quite new to php.

Thanks in advanced

I can see that you have nested <form>s. That's invalid markup, and may be causing the problem.

What do you mean by nested? How can I fix this?

Pikachu2000 · November 26, 2010

You have structure in there that would result in form tags being like this:

<form>

some fields . . .

<form>

fields for second form . . .

</form>

more fields for the first form . . .

</form>

OK, it's the same again!!

coolcam26 · November 26, 2010

Please Help this is really annoying me!! :confused:

Pikachu2000 · November 27, 2010

I don't see where you pass the value of the message you want to delete to the deleteorsend.php script. It looks like that script queries the database again without using a WHERE clause to specify the message you're trying to alter. I would start putting some debugging echos in the code in deleteorsend.php to trace just what is happening when the form is submitted.

coolcam26 · November 27, 2010

I think I've done that :-\ and it only seems to submit the last reply message no matter which button is pressed.

coolcam26 · November 27, 2010

Anyone....

coolcam26 · November 27, 2010

Please!! If I haven't explained myself very well tell me what you need to know!

Pikachu2000 · November 27, 2010

Stop bumping the thread without adding anything new to it.

You say you think you've passed the message id to deleteorsend. Can you point out where that is done?

coolcam26 · November 27, 2010

Stop bumping the thread without adding anything new to it.

Sorry, I'm very impatient!! I worry that no one will ever reply when obviously they do...

You say you think you've passed the message id to deleteorsend. Can you point out where that is done?

Yes it's in the first part of the content section:

echo "<form action='delete_message.php' method='POST'>";

Pikachu2000 · November 27, 2010

That's not a message id, that's the name of the script that is the target of the form being submitted, and the method to use for that submission.

You need to pass not only the action to take, but also the primary key id of the message to the second script in order for the second script to select the message it needs to take action on.

:-\ I think I understand... could you give an example as I am VERY new to php! So do I need to add some sort of id value too?

Pikachu2000 · November 27, 2010

Here's a quick (not all-inclusive) example using no form, and the GET method. If you look at how this works, it should help you understand

the logic necessary to manipulate records like you're trying to do.

Do as I've indicated below, change the database details to your own in the scripts, then call the list.php file into your browser, and see how it works.

--------------------------------------------------

Create a practice table named people by pasting this into the SQL tab in phpMyAdmin

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `people` (
  `pk_id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `name` varchar(32) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,
  `rank` varchar(32) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`pk_id`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM  DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8_unicode_ci AUTO_INCREMENT=10 ;

--
-- Dumping data for table `people`
--

INSERT INTO `people` VALUES(1, 'Bob', 'Private');
INSERT INTO `people` VALUES(2, 'Steve', 'Corporal');
INSERT INTO `people` VALUES(3, 'Joe', 'Sergaent');
INSERT INTO `people` VALUES(4, 'Betty', 'Lieutenant');
INSERT INTO `people` VALUES(5, 'Tina', 'Major');
INSERT INTO `people` VALUES(6, 'Victoria', 'Principal');
INSERT INTO `people` VALUES(7, 'Larry', 'Captain');
INSERT INTO `people` VALUES(8, 'Frank', 'Major');
INSERT INTO `people` VALUES(9, 'Sherman', 'Colonel');

Save this as list.php:

<?php
$host = 'your_db_hostname';
$user = 'your_db_username';
$pass = 'yourdb_password';
$dbname = 'your_db_name';

mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass);
mysql_select_db($dbname);

$query = "SELECT `pk_id`, `name`, `rank` FROM `people`";
if( $result = mysql_query($query) ) {
while( $array = mysql_fetch_assoc($result) ) {
	echo "{$array['name']} - {$array['rank']} <a href=\"process.php?do=delete&pkid={$array['pk_id']}\">Delete Record</a><br>";
}
}
?>

And save this as process.php

<?php
$host = 'your_db_hostname';
$user = 'your_db_username';
$pass = 'yourdb_password';
$dbname = 'your_db_name';

mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass);
mysql_select_db($dbname);

if( isset($_GET['do']) && $_GET['do'] == 'delete' ) {
if( ctype_digit($_GET['pkid']) && intval($_GET['pkid']) > 0 ) {
	$pk_id = (int) $_GET['pkid'];
	$query = "DELETE FROM `people` WHERE `pk_id` = $pk_id LIMIT 1";
	if( $result = mysql_query($query) ) {
		echo "<font color=\"red\">" . mysql_affected_rows() . " record was deleted.</font><br><a href=\"" . $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] . "\">[ Delete another ]</a>";
	} else {
		echo "Query failed to execute: " . mysql_error();
	}
} else {
	echo "No record specified";
}
} else {
echo "No action specified.";
}
?>

coolcam26 · November 27, 2010

I think I already have that here:

<input type='hidden' value='$msg_id' name='replyid'>

When I echo out "replyid" I don't get a value! Any reason why?

jcbones · November 27, 2010

Either change the input type to text.

<input type='hidden' value='$msg_id' name='replyid'> <-change to a text input

or look at the source code and see if the value is set to the proper Id.

At the top of the deleteorsend.php put in some de-bugging code;

echo '<pre>'; print_r($_POST); echo '</pre>';

Make sure you have all the values you think you do in the post array.

coolcam26 · November 27, 2010

Yes... I have tried printing the code already and I have already said that the content is not displayed. I am trying to make the value hidden as I don't want a random text box popping up!! When I click any reply button the bottom subject and content are sent!!!

coolcam26 · November 28, 2010

Sorry, I know you said not to bump but... It's exactly the same as it was before I strated this thread!

Pikachu2000 · November 28, 2010

Well, did you put the suggested echo '<pre>'; print_r($_POST); echo '</pre>'; at the head of deleteorsend.php and see what it returns?

coolcam26 · November 28, 2010

Yes... I have tried printing the code already!

Even when I press the message 1 reply button the values are for message 2:

Array
(
    [replyid] => 15
    [replysubject] => This is the subject for message 2
    [replycontent] => This is the content for message 2
    [replybutton] => Reply
)

Pikachu2000 · November 28, 2010

I think I found it. I can't guarantee this is the only problem in that code, but the hidden field below field will always return the value of its last occurrence in the form because the name= attribute is the same every time.

<input type='hidden' value='$msg_id' name='replyid'>

In other words, it's the same as setting up a form like this:

<form>
<input type="text" name="text" value="Text1">
<input type="text" name="text" value="Text2">
<input type="text" name="text" value="Text3">
<input type="text" name="text" value="Text4">
<input type="text" name="text" value="Text5">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

The value in $_POST['text'] will always be "Text5" because its the last instance of it in the form.

</form>
The value in $_POST['text'] will always be "Text5" because its the last instance of it in the form.

Ok, that makes sense but how do I fix it? It is in a while loops so do I need to assign some sort of id to it?

coolcam26 · November 28, 2010

Ok... I've found a way of making it work but the value for the button is the message id. How can I make it so you don't see "reply16" but just "reply"?

Or how can I detect the name of the value?

EDIT :: Don't worry! I was being stupid! Of cource I know how to do it with the name! I'm sure I will come into another problem in a few minutes though.....

coolcam26 · November 28, 2010

Hi,

I got it to work at last!!

I kind of re-wrote some of the code and finnaly got there in the end! I followed a tutorial so I probably didn't have full understanding of it. Anyway here's my final code incase you were curious:

The deleteorsend.php file:

<?php include("header.inc"); ?>
<table border="0" width="100%"><tr><td valign="top" width="800">
<div id="content">
<?php
//Start Content
$replybtn = $_POST['replybtn'];
$inboxbtn = $_POST['deleteinbox'];
$outboxbtn = $_POST['deleteoutbox'];

if($_SESSION['uid']){


echo '<pre>'; print_r($_POST); echo '</pre>';


if($inboxbtn){
		$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM messages WHERE to_user='$username'");
		while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query)){
			$msg_id = $row['id'];
			$value = "cb"."$msg_id";
			$checkbox = $_POST[$value];
			if ($checkbox){
				mysql_query("UPDATE messages SET to_delete='1' WHERE id='$msg_id'");
			}
		}
		echo "The selected messages have been deleted! <a href='messages.php'>Click here</a> to return to your inbox.";
	}

if($outboxbtn){
		$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM messages WHERE from_user='$username'");
		while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query)){
			$msg_id = $row['id'];
			$value = "cb"."$msg_id";
			$checkbox = $_POST[$value];
			if ($checkbox){
				mysql_query("UPDATE messages SET from_delete='1' WHERE id='$msg_id'");
			}
		}
		echo "The selected messages have been deleted! <a href='messages.php'>Click here</a> to return to your inbox.";
	}

if (!$outboxbtn && !$inboxbtn){

		$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM messages WHERE to_user='$username'");
		while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query)){
			$msg_id = $row['id'];
			$value = "replybtn"."$msg_id";
			$replybtn = $_POST[$value];
			if ($replybtn){

				$subjectname = "replysubject"."$msg_id";
				$contentname = "replycontent"."$msg_id";

				$subject = $_POST[$subjectname];
				$content = $_POST[$contentname];

				echo "Content name:".$contentname."<br />";

				echo "Subject:".$subject."<br />";


				if ($subject && $content){
			$date = date("M d, Y");
			$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM messages WHERE content='$content' AND date='$date'");
			$numrows = mysql_num_rows($query);
			if ($numrows == 0){
				$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM messages WHERE id='$msg_id' AND to_user='$username'");
				$numrows = mysql_num_rows($query);
				if ($numrows == 1){
					$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query);

					$to_user = $row['from_user'];

					mysql_query("INSERT INTO messages (to_user, to_id, from_user, from_id, subject, content, date) VALUES ('$to_user', '$to_id', '$username', '$userid', '$subject', '$content', '$date')");

					echo "to user:".$to_user."<br />";
