echo on submit

[ilikephp]

Hi, I have a form, it is working fine and it validates using spry...

 

When the user clicks the submit button and all the fields are filled, he will be redirected to the homepage page if not the required fields will be highlighted, I want to add a message next to the submit button or a popup that displays: "Plz check the errors"

 

this is the code, I think I should add an echo somewhere ?!

 

if ((isset($_POST["MM_insert"])) && ($_POST["MM_insert"] == "form1")) {
  $insertSQL = sprintf(               
      GetSQLValueString($_POST['IP'], "text"));

.
.
.

  mysql_select_db($database_myform, $myform);
  $Result1 = mysql_query($insertSQL, $myform) or die(mysql_error());


  if (isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
    $insertGoTo .= (strpos($insertGoTo, '?')) ? "&" : "?";
    $insertGoTo .= $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
  }
header('Location: homepage.php');
}

?>

It's not possible to see where you need to echo, as we cannot see the bit of the page that contains your submit button.

 

It would be easiest to explain if you can provide your full code (including HTML) for the page.

The form is too big, I just need to echo 'Fix your Errors please anywhere, could be next to the submit button'

 

is this one correct?

<?php
if($_POST['form1'] == 0){
    echo 'Check your errors';
} 
?>

you need to validate your form first, like:

 

$email = filter_var($_POST['email'], FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL);

 

then, in the end of the form, you shall put the echo error
