Begginer php web app doesnt work

Recommended Posts

So, the app I try to code it's for a school project, but the teacher failed to explain anything and wanted a working app in 2 days from now. I chose to make an electromagnet calculator but I don't understand why it doesn't work, from my point of view I wrote the code correctly but when I press the calculate button nothing happens. Most of the line codes are normal HTML and equations written in PHP, the two functions I made are for checking the closest value to the calculated dcu from a database that contains 2 columns: dcu and dcuiz, after that store them inside the dcu and dcuiz variables. At the end i want the program to display the d1,d2,d3,h,g and N variables, but the text is always displayed as "echo $ d1 ....", not as i wanted to show the calculated values. Please help and thank you in advance for helping me

  • I would do what @ginerjm suggested and make this script a self posting form.  Wrap the html form elements in a standard form tag of type post.  Get your variables from $_POST and not $_GET.  Otherwise it should work in similar fashion.
  • Your markup as presented is very messed up.  You have an entire body inside the head tag, and then you try and create another html document for your output.  You can't do that.  You only should have one html/head/body tag.
  • Another problem with your current code, is that php runs "serverside" and not "clientside".  You can not intermix php and javascript this way (as you did in the snippet I quoted).  The javascript code is delivered statically to the client when the page is requested.  If you use the chrome debug tools for example, you should see that your javascript function is invalid.  
  • When people want dynamic data, they use ajax, which is a level of complexity higher, so to keep your project simple, just use the standard html form, which will post back to the php script on submit, do the calculation (serverside in your php script) and re-render your output.  For simplicity, I've just shown a simple div/pre as you already are trying to echo out variables for debugging purposes.
  • Notice that I moved your blocks around, with your functions at the start of the script.  Functions are typically included prior to your logic, and it makes the flow of control clearer when you are intermixing html and php in this way.  

Something similar to this should work (I editted your code, but don't guarantee that there are no errors).
