flopez1974 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I am having difficulty figuring out why links to the results of my query are not working. In other words, users search for a folder name ex. 22-21-11, PDF files appear that reside in this folder as links. When a user clicks on the link, nothing happens. Everything is working great except for this portion. I am a PHP newbie and a nudge in the right direction will be greatly appreciated. I am suspecting the path I am using but I will let the PHP Jedi's comment. <?php // CMM_Tino.php error_reporting(E_ALL); /** * SEARCH FOR PDF FILES BASED ON DIRECTORY NAME */ // ACTIVATE THIS TO SHOW THE REQUEST // var_dump($_GET); // LINKS TO THE PDF FILES, IF ANY $links = NULL; // PUT THE PATH TO THE DIRECTORY OF FILE FOLDERS HERE $path = 'D:/CMM_Search/CMM'; // GET THE LIST OF FILE FOLDERS $folders = array_diff(scandir($path), array('.','..')); // FILTER THE LIST OF FILE FOLDERS TO REMOVE EXTRANEOUS FILES foreach ($folders as $key => $name) { if (!is_dir($path . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $name)) unset($folders[$key]); } // IF THERE IS A REQUEST $q = !empty($_GET['q']) ? $_GET['q'] : NULL; if (!empty($q)) { // IF THE REQUEST MATCHES ONE OF THE FILE FOLDERS $folder = NULL; foreach ($folders as $folder) { if (strpos($folder, $q) !== FALSE) break; $folder = NULL; } if ($folder) { $links = "<p><b>$folder</b></p>" . PHP_EOL; // GET THE LIST OF FILES IN THE FOLDER $files = array_diff(scandir($path . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $folder), array('.','..')); // PREPARE LINKS TO THE PDF FILES foreach ($files as $file) { $end = explode('.', $file); $end = end($end); $end = strtoupper($end); if ($end != 'PDF') continue; $links .= '<br>' . '<a target="my_pdf" ' . 'href="' . $path . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $folder . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . $file . '">' . $file . '</a>' . PHP_EOL ; } } else { $links = '<br>' . 'Unknown Folder: ' . "<b>$q</b>" . PHP_EOL ; } } // CREATE THE SEARCH PAGE USING PHP HEREDOC NOTATION $htm = <<<EOD <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Barfield CMM Lookup</title> <meta name="ROBOTS" content="NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW" /> <!-- CSS styles for standard search box --> <style type="text/css"> #tfheader{ background-color:#; } #tfnewsearch{ float:left; padding:20px; width: 1686px; } .tftextinput{ margin: 0; padding: 5px 15px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size:14px; border:1px solid #0076a3; border-right:0px; border-top-left-radius: 5px 5px; border-bottom-left-radius: 5px 5px; } .tfbutton { margin: 0; padding: 5px 15px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size:14px; outline: none; cursor: pointer; text-align: center; text-decoration: none; color: #ffffff; border: solid 1px #0076a3; border-right:0px; background: #0095cd; background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, from(#00adee), to(#0078a5)); background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #00adee, #0078a5); border-top-right-radius: 5px 5px; border-bottom-right-radius: 5px 5px; } .tfbutton:hover { text-decoration: none; background: #007ead; background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, from(#0095cc), to(#00678e)); background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #0095cc, #00678e); } /* Fixes submit button height problem in Firefox */ .tfbutton::-moz-focus-inner { border: 0; } .tfclear{ clear:both; } .auto-style1 { width: 915px; height: 90px; margin-left: 0px; } .auto-style2 { color: #0033CC; } </style> </head> <body> <!-- HTML for SEARCH BAR --> <div id="tfheader"> <br /> <img alt="Barfield" class="auto-style1" src="Barfield.jpg" /><br /> <!-- ************** NOTE THE $links VARIABLE WILL BE FILLED IN BY THE PHP SCRIPT ************** --> $links <br /> <!-- ************** NOTE THE ACTION ATTRIBUTE IS REMOVED TO CAUSE THIS SCRIPT TO SEND THE FORM REQUEST TO THE CURRENT URL ************** --> <form id="tfnewsearch" method="get"> <span class="auto-style2"><strong>CMM</strong></span> <input type="text" class="tftextinput" name="q" size="21" maxlength="120"><input type="submit" value="search" class="tfbutton"> </form> <br /> <div class="tfclear"></div> </div> <!-- Use of this code assumes agreement with the Google Custom Search Terms of Service. --> <!-- The terms of service are available at http://www.google.com/cse/docs/tos.html --> <form name="cse" id="searchbox_demo" action="http://www.google.com/cse"> <input type="hidden" name="cref" value="" /> <input type="hidden" name="ie" value="utf-8" /> <input type="hidden" name="hl" value="" /> </form> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.google.com/cse/tools/onthefly?form=searchbox_demo&lang="></script> </body> </html> EOD; // WRITE THE HTML DOCUMENT TO THE BROWSER echo $htm; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
requinix Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 (edited) Use tags when posting code. . 'You have the link pointing to a target "my_pdf" that, as far as I can see, doesn't exist anywhere on the page. Remove the target.
