By The Way What Did You Change Because It Still Doesn't Work

 

Any More Help

 

Thnx,

$PHP_SELF shouldn't work without defining it first.

<?php
$PHP_SELF = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
$addform = "<form name='addvideo' action='$PHP_SELF' method='post'>

 

That was what I changed above.

 

<?php
$PHP_SELF = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
$addform = "<form name='addvideo' action='$PHP_SELF' method='post'>

Video URL:<BR><input type='text' name='url' size='40'>

<br>Video Description:<br><textarea rows='10' cols='30' name='desc'></textarea><br></form>

<input type='submit' value='Submit' name="Submit"></form>";

echo "$addform";

if (isset($_POST['Submit'])) {


$url = $_POST['url'];
$desc = $_POST['desc'];

if(empty($url)){
echo "Please Specify The URL Of The Video<br>";
}

elseif(empty($desc)){
echo "Please Specify A Description Of The Video<br>";
}

else{
$newcontent = "<videos>
<video url='$url' desc='$desc' />
</videos>";
$previouscontent = file_get_contents("videoplaylist.xml");
$openfile = fopen("videoplaylist.xml", "w");
$totalfile = $previouscontent.$newcontent;
fwrite($openfile, $totalfile);
fclose($openfile);

echo "File Added To Playlist<br><br>Add A New File?<br>$addform";
}


}
?>

 

I changed the : <input type='submit' value='Submit' name="Submit"></form>"; this time around, see if that works.

I Found The Problem

 

<br>Video Description:<br><textarea rows='10' cols='30' name='desc'></textarea><br></form>

 

<input type='submit' value='Submit' name='Submit'></form>";

 

 

There Were Two /form Tags

Plus, i don't know if it is true, but if you press enter(rather than clicking submit), Submit is not defined, a  safer option would be to use:

 

<input type="hidden" name="submitted" value="true">
