Place input data inside sent URL

[Carlton]

This has been bothering me for a while, how do I do this?

 

echo
("
    <form  method = 'get' action = 'member.php?action=Search&option=faction&name=NAME'>
                                        Faction's Name: <input type='text' name='member' /><br /><br />
                                        <input type='submit' value='Search' />
                                    </form>
");

 

name='member' is supposed to be sent with here: member.php?action=Search&option=faction&name=NAME. Obviously replacing NAME with the input.

Here, and gl

echo
("
    <form  method = 'get' action = 'member.php?action=Search&option=faction&name=' . $_GET['member'] . '>
                                        Faction's Name: <input type='text' name='member' /><br /><br />
                                        <input type='submit' value='Search' />
                                    </form>
");

                                        Faction's Name: <input type='text' name='member' /><br /><br />
                                        <input type='submit' value='Search' />
                                    </form>
");

 

I tried that before I posted this. No luck.

where do you set the value that you are trying to insert into the string?

What do you mean? Your question is simple to many others, but to me I don't understand it in this case.

[BlueSkyIS]

where does the value for NAME come from? where does the value come from that you want to put into the echo statement?

 

// Where do we get the value for $somevalue, in the echo below?

echo "<form  method = 'get' action = 'member.php?action=Search&option=faction&name=$somevalue'>
                                    Faction's Name: <input type='text' name='member' /><br /><br />
                                        <input type='submit' value='Search' />
                                    </form>";

                                    </form>";

 

There's no value, this: <input type='text' name='member' /> is supposed to be in the member.php?action=Search&option=faction&name=THEINPUTSENT

 

Sorry if i'm misunderstanding you

[BlueSkyIS]

there is no input when you first open the script, so the value will be name= (nothing). When you post the form there will be 2 different names: one POST'ed and the other one GET'ed. if you want to put the POST'ed value into that string, you'll need to use something like this:

 

$posted_name = urlencode(stripslashes($_POST['name']));  // Remove stripslashes if magic quotes is not on.
echo "<form  method = 'get' action = 'member.php?action=Search&option=faction&name=$posted_name'>
                                    Faction's Name: <input type='text' name='member' /><br /><br />
                                        <input type='submit' value='Search' />
                                    </form>";

 

i don't understand the purpose for this, but that should work.

It deletes my current wanted url and replaces it with: member.php?member=INPUT

need to see more code to understand what's going on.
