EzwanAbid Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I'm trying to passing a data by url.. and what I want to know here, is it possible to insert php code inside <form action> ? Like this : <form id="form56" name="form56" class="wufoo topLabel page" autocomplete="off" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" novalidate action="<?php searchres.php?id=$id?>"> Or is there any better way that I can try? Hope someone can help me here. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/272214-can-i-use-php-code-inside-html-form-action/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian F. Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 (edited) I think you mean to do this: action="searchres.php?id=<?php echo $id; ?>"> PS: Remember to typecast the ID to an integer (by using (int)) when retrieving it from wherever, to ensure that no-one can put any HTML content into it and thus attack your users with an XSS (or similar).

EzwanAbid Posted December 20, 2012 Author Share Posted December 20, 2012 wow Thank you Christian.. I never expect it was you again.. Thx it's working ! .. but I have another question here.. Can I use this code to call 2 field from my database into my html? mysql_query("SELECT adminfullname,department FROM admin WHERE id='$id'"); Those adminfullname and department will refer to the admin table where $id that I send by url just now.

Christian F. Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Yes, I don't see any problems with it. Though, except the slight issue that integer values shouldn't be quoted in SQL queries. Assuming $id is an integer, and that you've properly type-cast it. You're welcome, btw.
