AbydosGater Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 Hi, i am going to copy a large section of the code for one of my message board systems here.The problem lies in not errors, but when a user submits the form.. Its just displaying the form again, Not running the mysql query...The code is as follows..Ive even printed it off and read through it, i can see where im going wrong.[code] <?php if(!$_GET['action']){ //do while for messages } else if ($_GET['action'] == "post"){ if (!$_POST['post']){ echo "<p><font color='#FFFFFF'> To Post A Message Simpily Fill In The Box Below And Click Post.</font></p> <form action='?action=post' method='post' name='postmessage' id='postmessage'> <div align='center'><font color='#FFFFFF'>Title: <input name='title' type='text' id='title' value='RE: last message' class='field1'><br>Your Message:<br> <textarea name='message' cols='70' rows='5' class='field1'></textarea> <br> "; if ($_SESSION['user']['CL'] == 10){ echo " <select name='color' id='color' class='field1'> <option value='Green' selected>Green</option> <option value='Red'>Red</option> <option value='Yellow'>Yellow</option> <option value='Blue'>Blue</option> <option value='Pink'>Pink</option> </select> <br> <input type='submit' name='Post' value='Post' class='button1'> </font></div> </form> "; } else { echo "<input name='color' type='hidden' id='color' value='Post'> <br> <input type='submit' name='Post' value='Post' class='button1'> </font></div> </form> "; } } elseif ($_POST['Post'] && $_POST['message'] && $_POST['color']) { $message = $_POST['message']; $message = modifyPost($message); $color = $_POST['color']; $title = $_POST['title']; $timestamp = DATESTAMP; $member_id = $_SESSION['user']['member_id']; mysql_query("INSERT INTO sf_tenforward (id, member_id, title, content, color, timestamp) VALUES (NULL, $member_id, $title, $message, $color, $timestamp)"); echo "<br><font color=white>Thank you for posting your message, Please click the link above to read your message and any replys.</font>"; } else { echo "<br><font color=white>Sorry, Your message could not be posted, Please go back and make sure you filled in the form.</font>"; } } else { echo "<br><br><font color=white>Incorrect Action Presented.</font>"; } ?>[/code]Sorry, its a big section of code.. Ehh but i cant see why the form is being displayed again..Oh and PS. It will only display if the GET['action'] is set to post..Otherwise it WILL run the //while for messages bit.Its all in the form somewhere!Can anyone see where ive gone wrong, i cant Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/29333-simple-form-post-not-working/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpine Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 I don't understand your logic here, remove your GET action from the form action and simply sniff for the submit button instead. Either it is submitted or its not ( too many mix won't do the trics ??? ):[code]<?phpif(isset($_POST['Post'])) // the name of your submit button{// form is submitted}else{// form is not submitted}?>[/code] Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/29333-simple-form-post-not-working/#findComment-134472 Share on other sites More sharing options...
