Form submit to create new page

[jhmedia]

Hi people,

 

Im more of a web designer than coder, so Im struggling with this.

 

Basic form I have, works fine, but this form needs to create a unique page with a link with all the form values.

 

its basically for a payment link - they click the email link on the email, the page has a button to pay which sends all those values via POST.

 

 

 

Form has -

 

Email address (to sent link to page)

Value

Description

Customer Name

 

 

any advice would be great!

 

kind regards,

 

J

Where is your code?

[jhmedia]

Sorry Voip, i only have a basic form at the moment, as I dont know how to create a page with the payment link -

 

<p>Please click on the button below to pay for your order.</p>
<form action="/app/payment.pl" method="post"> 

  <p>
  <input name="pay_to_email" type="hidden" value="info@..." /> 
    
  <input name="status_url" type="hidden" value="orders@..." /> 
    
  <input name="language" type="hidden" value="EN" /> 
    
  <input name="currency" type="hidden" value="GBP" />
  </p>
<p>Customer Name:
    <input name="Name" type="text" value="" /> 
  </p>
<p>Customer Email:
    <input name="Name" type="text" value="" /> 
  </p>
  <p>Amount to pay:
    <input name="amount" type="text" value="" /> 
  </p>
  <p>
   Product Details: <input name="detail1_description" type="text" value="Product Decription" title="" />
  </p>
  <p>
   Payment Decription: <input name="detail1_text" type="text" value="" /> 
  </p>
  <p>
    <input type="submit" value="Click to pay" />
  </p>
</form>

 

this works fine to actually go to the payment and put car details in but I need this to create a link with the values and email the customer with the link to the page or something.

 

Thank you

 

kindly

On submit,You are going to send email to your client with payment link and the total amount

 

 

[jhmedia]

Yes, a payment link to the page with the payment button.

 

Unless you can make a payment link creation which uses post?

 

hope this helps?

[jhmedia]

Ok, after some thought, creating a page for each submission and emailing them the link to the page...for the payment link is going around the houses lol

 

how can I get that form to create a link with all the variables like ie:

 

https://www.site.com/app/payment.pl?pay_to_email=info%40site.co.uk&status_url=orders%40site.co.uk&language=EN&amount=7.99&currency=GBP&detail1_description=product+description&detail1_text=product+more+details

 

If the form could create a link like this and send them an email saying, "please click this link etc for your payment LINK etc, thank you" ??

 

 

best regards,

This is for paypal

[xyph]

The $_POST array will contain all the values a user would submit with a form using the POST method.

[jhmedia]

thank you for your time,

 

i can get this to work perfectly from the form, but we need it to sent a recipient a email with a generated link with these values, so they click and then can therefore arrive at payment site?

 

best regards,

<?
if($_POST['submit'])
{

	$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
	$headers.= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";
	$headers.= 'From: site.com<[email protected]>' ."\r\n";

   

	$verifyemail  = "Buyer email address";

	$mail_body="<a href="https://www.site.com/app/payment.pl?pay_to_email=info%40site.co.uk&status_url=orders%40site.co.uk&language=EN&amount=7.99&currency=GBP&detail1_description=product+description&detail1_text=product+more+details">Payme NOw</a>";

	if (mail($verifyemail,"Pay NOW", $mail_body,$headers))
	{	echo "email send";	}
	else
	{	echo "email faild";	}
?>

[jhmedia]

thats great, but the form submit needs to set the variables inside the link that is sent to the customer?

 

really appreciate your time!

 

 

[jhmedia]

something like -

 

$mail_body="<a href="https://www.site.com/app/payment.pl?pay_to_email=info%40site.co.uk&status_url=orders%40site.co.uk&language=EN&amount='.$amount.'&currency=GBP&detail1_description='$detail1_description'&detail1_text='$detail1_text'">Click here to pay</a>";

 

hmmm??

[voip03]

<?
if($_POST['submit'])
{

	$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
	$headers.= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";
	$headers.= 'From: 99pitt.info <[email protected] >' ."\r\n";

   

	$verifyemail  = "Buyer email address";

	$mail_body="https://www.site.com/app/payment.pl?pay_to_email=".
	$_GET['pay_to_email']."&status_url=".$_GET['status_url']."&language=EN&amount=".$_GET['amount']."&currency=GBP&detail1_description=".$_GET['detail1_description']."&detail1_text=". $_GET['detail1_text']."";

	if (mail($verifyemail,"Pay NOW", $mail_body,$headers))
	{	echo "email send";	}
	else
	{	echo "email faild";	}
?>

<p>Please click on the button below to pay for your order.</p>
<form action="/app/payment.pl" method="post">   
<p>  
<input name="pay_to_email" type="hidden" value="[email protected]" />

One more advice

Security reason, do not use the main email address (login in email address) in this code.

 

<input name="pay_to_email" type="hidden" value="info@..." />
<input name="status_url" type="hidden" value="orders@..." />       

[jhmedia]

Thanks so much!! I really appreciate your advice.

 

thank you!

Creat a new page and test this code

<?

$from    = "mysite.com <[email protected] >";

$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";

$headers.= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";

$headers.= "From: $from\r\n";

 

 

$verifyemail  = "[email protected]";

 

$mail_body="Test mail";

 

if (mail($verifyemail,"Customer contact", $mail_body,$headers))

{ echo " Thankyou! - Your feedback has been sent! "; }

else

{ echo " Thankyou! - We could not send email. Please try later! "; }

 

 

?>

 

 

[voip03]

If the code does not work

 

Open the “php.ini“

Search for the attribute called “SMTP” in the php.ini file.

“SMTP=localhost“. change the localhost to the smtp server name of your ISP

“smtp_port” which should be set to 25.
