I have a comment/feedback section to my website.  After a person enters their comment and submits it I was hoping to have it refresh the page with the current page and their comments now displayed, but it is redirecting me to another page that I include.  The website is http://www.dancleary.com/feedback.php.  I am extremely new to php, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!!

Add a PHP header to the page that makes the browser refresh.

 

<?php
header("Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate"); // HTTP/1.1
header("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT"); // Date in the past
?>

Source: http://us2.php.net/header

 

Oh, and by the way, headers must be sent before any HTML output. I.e., put the code at the beginning of your PHP file.

This is what the guy who wrote the code told me . . .

 

 

What's happening is that there is something about your php installation that is causing aberrant behavior on the part of php. Here's what is happening:

 

When you browse to http://www.dancleary.com/feedback.php feedback.php should become the "currently executing script" in php.

 

feedback.php calls head-inc.php and comments.php using include statements.

 

comments.php uses the value in the global server variable called $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] for the url of the page that will be displayed when the user clicks on submit. When the comments.php code is executed that variable should contain " /feedback.php" because feedback.php is the currently executing script.

 

Instead, that variable contains "

/talkback/comments.php

". For some reason your php system is setting the value of

that variable incorrectly.

 

 

I did another test...I changed feedback.php to set a variable. The contents of that variable should carry through to head-inc.php and comments.php. In other words if I set variable $x = '1' in feeback.php, in comments.php if i print that variable it should print the number 1. But it doesn't, the variable shows as empty (not set). I have never seen this behavior.

Did you get my PM I sent you?

 

If you send me comments.php (from /talkback), I can hard-code the form action attribute and send it back to you.

 

Notice this code from the HTML code you posted above:

<form id='tb_form' name='tb_form' action='/talkback/comments.php'  method='post' onsubmit='return validateForm(this.form)'>

 

The action attribute should be action='/feedback.php'
