[SOLVED] passing Get variables

[Archimedees]

 

Below echo is inside a form, I want to pass the $strServer using Get method.

 

echo "<td> name=\"MyServer\"value=\"$strServer\"</td>\n";

 

in the next file where the variable is to be passed I want to obtain the $strServer.

 

 

if (array_key_exists("submit", $_GET))

    {

      $strMyServer = $_GET["MyServer"];

       

     

    }// end of if (array_key_exists("submit", $_GET))

    else

    {

      die();

    }//end of else

 

 

 

Something is wrong with the outlined codes. Please pinpont what is wrong. Thanks.

Hi Archimedees,

 

You could simply use a link to do this.

Also, you method of checking an get value is a bit extensive.

 

Here is an example:

echo '<td><a href="?MyServer="' . $strServer . '">MyServer</a></td><br>';

 

<?php
if (!empty($_GET['MyServer']))
      $strMyServer = $_GET['MyServer'];
else
      die();
?>

Change your die() statement to

die("I died here");

 

And if you get "I died here" in your output then you know your if statement is failing.

If your form is using the GET method, all you have to do is create a hidden field with the values you're wanting to pass:

<?php
echo "<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"MyServer\" value=\"$strServer\" />";
?>
