[SOLVED] Help with My PHP scripts

winmastergames · January 20, 2008

Well im making a script so users can make there own website for free and stuff. But is possible to have a form that uses the GET function and submits it and that link stuff comes out like this

page.php?name=bob&last=gates

I want that code after they have submited it to go into the Textbox where they first clicked the link to Add Page

If you know what i mean?? its kind of confusing

pkSML · January 20, 2008

Yah, your quandry is confusing...

You can access form variables submitted by the GET method as

$_GET['name'] and $_GET['last']

-OR-

$_REQUEST['name'] and $_REQUEST['last'] (this method gets variables submitted with either GET or POST)

Sending textarea data via get is a bad idea as you'll run over the address' character limit.

winmastergames · January 20, 2008

Yea i tried that its a bad idea...

But what about is there a way that you can fill out a form on a page and there is another form below that one where it has some textboxes to place the stuff like page.php?name=bob&last=gates Right and places the code there and there will be 4 buttons like place in textbox 1 and 2,3,4 like that Is that possible?

I'm still not quite sure what you want, your 'sentences' don't make that much sense. Are you sure you don't want Javascript to accomplish this?

<?php echo $_GET["title"]; ?>

In and around the script and well that script is a template as you can see. and then I have the following form so you can put a title and text into the webpage But now i want it so you can have multipule pages and on the form i have URL 1 url 2 url 3 url 4 I want another form that can insert the URL into there when they have made another page Like on this Page you will have this Come out after you have Put all your Text in

index.php?title=Welcome+To+a+website&slogan=Great+this+is+cool&para-1=Welcome&para-1sec1body=Welcome+to+bobnarly%27s+website+please+use+the+link+above+to+navigate+around&para-1sec2body=More+Text&para-1sec3body=More+Text&para-2=More+Text&para-2sec1body=More+Text&para-2sec2body=More+Text&sidebar1title=More+Text&sidebar1body=More+Text&sidebar2title=More+Text&sidebar2body=More+Text&sidebar3title=More+Text&sidebar3body=More+Text&link1text=&link1url=&link2text=&link2url=&link3text=&link3url=&link4text=&link4url=

If you want to see it in action with what i have now go here

Still unclear but perhaps you can use hidden inputs to retain the data between forms. Either that or some kind of database interaction.

winmastergames · January 20, 2008

Yea ill think about it a bit more then if i have problems

ill be back!!

Ill say this is Solved but cya

winmastergames · January 20, 2008

I thought about it a bit more and here is a diagram

As you can see the user will type in the top form and there are 4 buttons i want them to submit the index.php?title=Welcome&slogan=Welcome and so on into the textboxes at the bottom with URL 1,2,3 and 4

Is that more understanding

Fyorl · January 20, 2008

Yep, I think I understand now. You need javascript for this, not PHP.

winmastergames · January 20, 2008

Oh and where will i find that ???

Thanks

Fyorl · January 20, 2008

I think there may be a forum here devoted to Javascript. You could also try <a href="http://www.justfuckinggoogleit.com/search.pl?query=javascript">this</a>.

winmastergames · January 20, 2008

Umm and i already did there isnt much to do what im trying to do

Fyorl · January 20, 2008

*Sigh*

<script type="text/javascript">
var inputs = document.getElementsByTagName('input');
var urlstr = 'index.php?';
for(var i = 0; i < inputs.length; i++) {
var input = inputs[i];
if(input['name'].substr(0, 4) == 'link') continue;
if(urlstr != 'index.php?') urlstr += '&';
urlstr += input['name'] + '=' + input['value'];
}
</script>

That will create your index.php?blah=blah&blah2=blahblah in the variable 'urlstr'. Now all you need to do is attach onlick events to your four buttons to give the link boxes the value of urlstr.

I also refuse to write any more code for you because I'm tired, I hate javascript and I think that if you manage to do the rest yourself you'll be much better off than if I had told you.
