need help with form and php stuff

**luckypenny** · 05-15-2007, 04:53 AM

I watched both tutorials about forms and have gone over it many times to make sure I did it right. i can't get my form on my index page to go to my thank you page. I've done the everything I can think of.

I made sure the form has php. my thank you page has the right code just like the video, but when i fill out the form and hit submit I get this error to go to my thank you page

Not Found

The requested URL /action.php was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Need help very frustrated. I'm a newbie trying to learn something new, and I'm missing somrthing.
Thank you so much for any help.

Todd, Naval's usually the "form guy" but he's not on right now. I wouldn't know which questions to ask you, but you can send me your form and thank you pages at dmapillar********.com and I can take a look at them for you.

**navaldesign** · 05-15-2007, 07:49 AM

Your problem is typically either a typo or basic error. I.e.: setting the form action in "action.php" and instead, having the "action" page saved (and published) as "thankyou.php".

Please provide links to your form and your thank you page so i can have a look.

Hi, I having some real trouble with this and it's about the final thing for my site. I'm getting this error when I run my page:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/ruqmcinn/public_html/StrategicAlliancesApp.php on line 202

here's the code that causes it:

<?php

session_start();
include("database.php");

//see if name already exists in database

function co_Exists($Co_Name){
global $conn;
if(!get_magic_quotes_gpc()){
$Co_Name = addslashes($Co_Name);
}
$q = "select Co_Name from alliances where Co_Name = '$Co_Name'";
$result = mysql_query($q,$conn);
return (mysql_numrows($result) > 0);
if(co_Exists($_POST['Co_Name'])){
$use = $_POST['Co_Name'];
die("Sorry, the Company Name: <strong>$use</strong> already exists in our records.");
}
}
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
/* Make sure all fields were entered */
if(!$_POST['Co_Name'] || !$_POST['Name'] || !$_POST['Email'] || !$_POST['Phone'] || !$_POST['City'] || !$_POST['State'] || !$_POST['Fax'] || !$_POST['Business'] || !$_POST['Address'] || !$_POST['Zip']){
die('You didn\'t fill in a required field.');
}

function addAlliance($Co_Name, $Name, $Email, $Phone, $City, $State, $Fax, $Business, $Address, $Zip,$ReferralID,$Referredby){
global $conn;
$q = "INSERT INTO alliances VALUES ('$Co_Name', '$Name', '$Email', '$Phone, '$City', '$State', '$Fax', '$Business', '$Address', '$Zip','$Referredby')";
return mysql_query($q,$conn);

**navaldesign** · 05-21-2007, 09:56 PM

die('You didn\'t fill in a required field.');
}
}

You have left out a '}'

**horus** · 05-21-2007, 10:53 PM

Thanks, that's corrected, but now the data won't submit to the database.
Is my code in the proper order?

**navaldesign** · 05-21-2007, 11:08 PM

Storing in the database is done through the function

function addAlliance($Co_Name, $Name, $Email, $Phone, $City, $State, $Fax, $Business, $Address, $Zip,$ReferralID,$Referredby){
global $conn;
$q = "INSERT INTO alliances VALUES ('$Co_Name', '$Name', '$Email', '$Phone, '$City', '$State', '$Fax', '$Business', '$Address', '$Zip','$Referredby')";
return mysql_query($q,$conn);
}

There is also anoher function, that should provide the error message if the company name already exists in the database:
function co_Exists($Co_Name){
global $conn;
if(!get_magic_quotes_gpc()){
$Co_Name = addslashes($Co_Name);
}
$q = "select Co_Name from alliances where Co_Name = '$Co_Name'";
$result = mysql_query($q,$conn);
return (mysql_numrows($result) > 0);
if(co_Exists($_POST['Co_Name'])){
$use = $_POST['Co_Name'];
die("Sorry, the Company Name: <strong>$use</strong> already exists in our records.");
}
}

However, though these two functions are defined, they are NOT used.

I also do not understand why you are defining functions. Function definition is usually done in a self standing file, that is then included in ALL your scripts (because common to all, it is a way of avoiding writing always the same code). In this case, the function is defined inside the script itself, and then it is not useful to any other script, so no need for function definition. The script should be changed to

<?php
session_start();
include("database.php");
//see if name already exists in database
function co_Exists($Co_Name){
global $conn;
if(!get_magic_quotes_gpc()){
$Co_Name = addslashes($Co_Name);
}
$q = "select Co_Name from alliances where Co_Name = '$Co_Name'";
$result = mysql_query($q,$conn);
return (mysql_numrows($result) > 0);
if(co_Exists($_POST['Co_Name'])){
$use = $_POST['Co_Name'];
die("Sorry, the Company Name: <strong>$use</strong> already exists in our records.");
}
}
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
/* Make sure all fields were entered */
if(!$_POST['Co_Name'] || !$_POST['Name'] || !$_POST['Email'] || !$_POST['Phone'] || !$_POST['City'] || !$_POST['State'] || !$_POST['Fax'] || !$_POST['Business'] || !$_POST['Address'] || !$_POST['Zip']){
die('You didn\'t fill in a required field.');
}
}
co_Exists($Co_Name);
function addAlliance($Co_Name, $Name, $Email, $Phone, $City, $State, $Fax, $Business, $Address, $Zip,$ReferralID,$Referredby){
global $conn;
$q = "INSERT INTO alliances VALUES ('$Co_Name', '$Name', '$Email', '$Phone, '$City', '$State', '$Fax', '$Business', '$Address', '$Zip','$Referredby')";
return mysql_query($q,$conn);
}
addAlliance($Co_Name, $Name, $Email, $Phone, $City, $State, $Fax, $Business, $Address, $Zip,$ReferralID,$Referredby);
?>

However, i don't understand why you have pasted this code in the same page as the form, it should be in a page that would provide a confirmation message. Also, your form action doesn't exist so the form doesn't do anything at all.

**horus** · 05-25-2007, 06:26 AM

Thanks I fixed that.
NOW, I can't figure out how to make this form cover the entire page
for those who have not logged in.
Here's the link take a look and tell me what you think I should do:

http://youronlinecreditcoach.com/test.php

Thanks

**navaldesign** · 05-25-2007, 06:35 AM

I'm not sure what you mean by "cover the entire page".

If you mean that you want additional visual elements to create a better looking page, this depends entirely on the part of the script that creates the visual part (the form).

**horus** · 05-31-2007, 08:28 AM

Thanks so much Naval. What I meant was that the login script that I created was showing up on the top of my page and the rest of the page was completely visible. But, you don't have to worry about it cuz I figured out how to fix it. I introduced some code to redirect the user to a page with only the login. Here's what I want to know now.

When I change the permissions on my php file in my ftp program it reverts back to the original permissions. Also I'm not sure if it's a good idea to change the file permissions to 000 or not. I want to be able to access and use the file, but I do not want this file to be visible to others.

**navaldesign** · 05-31-2007, 09:02 AM

Again, i'm not sure what you mean by "change permissions to 000". Setting permissions to 000 means that NO ONE will be able to reach the file. Even you will need to change the permissions (through FTP or File Manager) in order to work with it directly on the server. Of course, you can also work with the file directly on your computer, upload the edited version, and then change it to 000. But what file are you talking about? and why should it be set to 000 ? usually only installation files are set to 000 so that no one, even knowing the existance and the URL of the file, will be able to open/execute it.

Anyway, the code of php files is not visible through a browser, (only their html output is).

**horus** · 06-08-2007, 04:12 AM

I'm trying to write some code that will email someone depending upon
the existance of a value in my database. My code will search through the database and check for the values, but I'm not sure if I can email the person in my database, based on the current date being 30 days after their entry in the database. I'm kinda just getting used to php and I started out on Javascript. PHP is by far the best of the two.
Thanks 4 the great help!

**navaldesign** · 06-08-2007, 06:56 AM

What you want to do is quite possible. Again, i don't understand what you mean with "but I'm not sure if I can email the person in my database, based on the current date being 30 days after their entry in the database"

You can check if a particular email or name or password exists in the database, and then email him if the above conditions are verified. If you need to have a mail sent out 30 days after one has signed up, there are two ways:

Manualy: each day you run a script that checks the signup dates, and if it finds someone that has signed up 30 days ago, it will email him.

Automatically: by setting up a cron job that will do the same thing for you once a day.

Please note that you will need at least a "flag" field, so the script will update the users details (with a field that indicates that the email has been sent to that user, in order to avoid sending out the email more than once)

**horus** · 06-12-2007, 12:45 AM

What is a "flag field"?

**Watdaflip** · 06-12-2007, 01:05 AM

I believe naval is just saying you need to mark a person in the database as having the email sent to them. You could just add an column with a default of 0 or FALSE, and then once the email is sent have the script update the column for that row to 1 or TRUE. And just have the script check that column if the value is 0 or 1, or FALSE or TRUE. This prevents people from getting 2 emails

**navaldesign** · 06-12-2007, 07:05 AM

Exactly. "Flags" are just pointers set to "True" or "False" (or, which is the same, "1" or "O", "Sent" or "Not Sent", anything that indicates the fullfilment of a condition or not.

**horus** · 06-26-2007, 05:23 AM

Hey, it's me again. I'm having challenges with making my code submit user input into the DB. I know that the insertion takes place in the function addNewUser() , but for some strange reason, after it tests the input (checkboxes) and echoes the proper response, I call the function and it refreshes the page, but does not submit the input fields to the DB.

Here's the code:

<?
session_start();
include("database.php");
$date = date("Y/m/d");

//see if name already exists in database
function Name_Exists($Name){
global $conn;
if(!get_magic_quotes_gpc()){
$Name = addslashes($Name);
}
$q = "select Name from members where Name = '$Name'";
$result = mysql_query($q,$conn);
return (mysql_numrows($result) > 0);
}

/**
* Inserts the given
* into the database. Returns true on success,
* false otherwise.
*/
function addNewUser($Name, $Phone, $Email, $State, $City, $Address, $Address2, $Referredby, $date){
global $conn;
$q = "INSERT INTO members VALUES ('$Name', '$Phone', '$Email' , '$State' , '$City' , '$Address' , '$Address2' , '$Referredby', '$date')";
return mysql_query($q,$conn);
}

/**
* Determines whether or not to show to sign-up form

Which one is the form that submits to this script ? check field names to see if there is a problem with field naming.

**horus** · 06-26-2007, 05:56 PM

The problem is not in the field names. All field names are correct.
Here's the link to the form.

http://www.youronlinecreditcoach.com...tionnaire2.php

It echoes the message, but does not submit.

hey horus!

i visited your site to check out what you were talking about. im currently building mine, however, im stuck on how to have a login page. Or better yet, i'd like to know how to create a form in which the only way they can get in is by a designated user/pass.

i noticed you have a member login page. can you please assist me in the process of creating one? thanks!

**navaldesign** · 11-20-2007, 09:38 AM

A member login script is not easy to explain how to create. It requires at least 3 - 4 pages (Login, Register, Edit Profile, Forgot Password, confirmation pages, error pages, activation page, etc) , 3 - 4 backed scripts (the scripts that will validate and process all the user input during registration or login or editing profile or requiring forgotten details etc) as well as a Database interface for the site Administrator to be able to manage the users. Unless you have php/mysql coding experience, i would say that it is practically impossible to do this in a short (short = some days) time.

So you actually have two options: either find a script on the net (free or paid for) OR have one made for you. It really depends on what your needs for customization are.

Have a look at http://www.dbtechnosystems.com/logginexamples.php for a login script demo

Hi I need help too I have constructed my form watched the tutorials more than twice - but when I come to cut and paste the php code in page html its not there - any idea what I am doing wrong?

thanks

**navaldesign** · 12-11-2007, 06:05 PM

The code is in the Tutorial. Scroll down the tutorial, under the video, and you will find step by step instructions. Also you will find the necessary code. Copy it from there, edit it, and paste it in your page.

That's all.

**carpedeim** · 12-12-2007, 01:15 PM

Thanks for this I will give that a try - as a complete novice its great to get this sort of support

many thanks again
