Problem with POST and GET

arghesis · July 10, 2007

This is really confusing for me.

I have tried to figure this out but just can't get it right ...

so, here i have a very simple example (yeah, I know, I have to pass to xhtml ) :

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Test page</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<?PHP
echo '<form action="'.$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'?page=somepage" method="post">
		<input type="text" name="text" value="Input text"/>
		<input type="submit" value="Submit!" name="submit"/>
		</form>';
if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {
	echo $_POST['text'];
	echo '<br/>The page you want to see is : ' . $_GET['page'];
}
?>

</BODY>
</HTML>

My site is like this : I have a template, and there I put my content in. I use GET in the menu, to go to the content of different pages. But the problem is that everywhere where I have a form, after I press Submit button, it takes me to index.php, instead of taking me to the place I tell it to go. Like $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?page=whateverpage .

This is an example of a page: It's a simple mysql insert into a database. But when I click the Submit button, it takes me to index.php

povestiriProcess();

function arataPovestiri() {
$query = mysql_query('SELECT *FROM povestiri ORDER BY data DESC');
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($query)) {
	echo '<div class="povestiri"><div class="povestiri_nume">'.$row['nume'].'  ('.(filesize($row['nume'])/1024).' - <a href="'.$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'" target="_self">Download</a></div></div>';
}
}

function adaugaPovestireForm() {
echo '<br/><fieldset class="fieldset_adaugastire"><legend>Adauga Povestire</legend>';
echo '<form action="'.$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'?pg=povestiri" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">'.
'Nume:<br/><input type="text" name="nume" value=""/><br/>'.
'Continut:<br/><textarea name="continut"></textarea>'.
//'Adresa:<br/><input type="file" name="file" value=""/><br/>'.
'<input type="submit" name="adaugaPovestire" value="Adauga"/>'.
'</form></fieldset>';
}

function adaugaPovestire() {
if(isset($_POST['adaugaPovestire'])) {
	mysql_query('INSERT INTO povestiri(nume,link,data) VALUES("'.$_POST['nume'].'","'.$_POST['continut'].'",'.time().')');
}
}

function povestiriProcess() {
if(isLogged()) {
	if(isset($_POST['adauga'])) adaugaPovestire();
	if(isset($_GET['sterge'])) stergePovestire($_GET['sterge']);
}
arataPovestiri();
if(isLogged()) adaugaPovestireForm();
}

This is index.php

<?PHP
session_start();
require_once('php/mysql_connect.php');
require_once('php/functions.php');	
require_once('php/left_menu.php');
$_SESSION['logged']=1;
$_SESSION['user']='admin';
$_SESSION['suser']=1;
?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html>
<head>
	<?PHP include('php/header.php'); ?>
</head>
<body>
	<div id="wrapper"> 
		<div id="header">
			<div id="logo">  <!-- Admin pg - download header, change header - overwrite file header.jpg -->
				<img src="assets/header.jpg" alt="ImagoDei" width="700" height="150"/>
			</div>
   			<div id="topmenu">
			<ul> 			
				<li><a href="index.php">Home</a></li> 
				<li><a href="mailto:tobby_clx2005@yahoo.de">Trimite E-mail</a></li> 
				<li><a href="#">Biserica Speranta</a></li> 
			</ul> 
		</div> 
	</div>
	<div id="body"> 
		<div id="innerbody"> 
			<div id="leftcol">
				<div class="verticalmenu">
				<?PHP
				pageMenu();
				searchForm();
				?>
				</div>
			<?PHP
			login();
			if(isset($_POST['submitShoutbox'])) shout();
			shoutBox();
			if(isset($_SESSION['logged'])) {
				shoutBoxForm();
			}
			?>
			</div>
		</div>
   			<div id="centercol">
			<div id="centercontent">
				<?PHP
				if(isset($_GET['search'])=='yes') searchTerm($_POST['searchTerm']);
				else {
					if(!isset($_GET['pg'])) $_GET['pg']='home';
					if(is_file($_GET['pg'].'/'.$_GET['pg'].'.php')) require_once($_GET['pg'].'/'.$_GET['pg'].'.php');
					else echo 'Pagina inexistenta!';
				}
				?>
			</div>
		</div>
	</div>	
	<div id="rightcol">
		<?PHP
		links();
		?>
	</div> 
	<div class="clear"></div> 
	</div>
	</div>
	<div id="footer"><?PHP include('php/footer.php'); ?></div>
</body>
</html>
