Anthon9 Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 So person (A) fills form person (B) does the same but his form is hidden and merged with person (A)`s form. By hidden I mean like when you put a password in a field and it appears as dots symbolic for characters.

Jacques1 Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 I have no idea what you're asking. Can you explain why you're doing this and how exactly it is supposed to look like? Because this surely sounds weird. Write a coherent description, show some screenshots, ideally post code.

Anthon9 Posted September 15, 2016 Author Share Posted September 15, 2016 What I want to achieve is described in the image so basically I want to make a data field hidden when merged to another data form so the values are not visible. http://i.stack.imgur.com/HEWFT.jpg Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/302199-how-do-i-merge-two-data-forms-in-php-and-make-one-of-them-hidden/#findComment-1537609 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ginerjm Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Two people cannot fill out two separate forms at the same time in the same client in the same session. And how does B fill out a "hidden" form anyway? Maybe you want to sit back and take a break and re-describe your scenario? Remember we can't see what you are looking at so you have to be very specific in how you describe the activities you want to happen.

Anthon9 Posted September 15, 2016 Author Share Posted September 15, 2016 Disregard my previous posts* I wan`t someone to fill a form and then send it to another person but with the field hidden kind of like when you put in a password it will turn into dots. ( hope this explains it ) Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/302199-how-do-i-merge-two-data-forms-in-php-and-make-one-of-them-hidden/#findComment-1537617 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacques1 Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 And what's the purpose of that? Why do you want the other person to see a bunch of dots? Again: Give us the full picture, don't just repeat the same generic one-sentence description. In any case, you don't “send a form”. You can make person A fill out a form, store the data, then make person B fill out a form and finally merge the data. But I have no idea why you would want to prefill the second form with dots.

Anthon9 Posted September 15, 2016 Author Share Posted September 15, 2016 To hide the values in the field I don`t want person A to know what person B put in if that makes sense Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/302199-how-do-i-merge-two-data-forms-in-php-and-make-one-of-them-hidden/#findComment-1537620 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginerjm Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Then DON'T send it to him! If he can't see it, why do you have to send it?

ginerjm Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 And what Makes them do it? What if B decides not to? How do you force him? What if he deletes his email and can't recover it? Person A has to re-enter his form and re-send it to the recalcitrant person B?

NotionCommotion Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 It sounds kind of like when two people grade each other. Buyer A and Seller B perform an interaction. After the interaction, the broker asks both of them to grade the other, but neither can see what the other said into they have both graded one another. Is this what you are attempting to accomplish?

cyberRobot Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 Do they need to fill out the form at the same time? In other words, do you really need to combine both forms so that each party can see that other person is filling out their portion? Perhaps you could build a system which assigns a common identifier that both parties use to fill out their portion. Both pieces would then be saved to a database and connected with that identifier. Then you could have a separate script that combines both responses for whoever needs to see the results.

SVerheijen Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 (edited) Why does Person B need to see that Person A filled in the form. Why you just redirect him to a different page after he filled in the page, so he can see the answer of person A after. And if he filled in the form it also sends this link to Person A so he can see what B filled in? both fill in the same form but one part is not visible to the other And if they really can't know what the other filled in. Why do they need to see if the other one filled the form? There is no point to that right? Why you need to see dots if that's just the same as seeing nothing in this particular case?
