mastubbs Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Hi all, I found this nice php script which uses an iphone barcode scanner to return the barcode EAN number in a URL. I want to pass it to an HTML form on another webpage. Does anyone know how to do this? I suspect its pretty simple im just very new to PHP and HTML. Thanks in advance for any replies, Matt <?php $code = $_REQUEST['ean']; echo '<' . '?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?' . '>'; ?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD XHTML Mobile 1.0//EN" "http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/xhtml-mobile10.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> <title>test barcode reader</title> </head> <body> <div> <h1>test barcode reader</h1> <?php if ( $code ) : ?> <p> The barcode was <?php echo htmlentities( $code ); ?> </p> <?php endif; ?> <p> <a href="pic2shop://scan?callback=http://www.meandeviation.com/test/iphone/barcode.php?barcode=EAN">read barcode</a> </p> <p> This web page is for iPhone users only and needs <a href=""http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=308740640&mt=8">pic2shop</a> installed (it is free), which allows third party web apps and iPhone apps to use its bar code reading software as a form of local web service. </p> </div> </body> </html> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/278075-pass-php-data-to-html-form/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidannis Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I would put something like this on the third line right below the line that starts $code= if ( $code!='' ) { header ("Location: http;//mydomain.com/myscript.php?code=$code"); exit; } Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/278075-pass-php-data-to-html-form/#findComment-1430485 Share on other sites More sharing options...
