Reloading the same page

[Anon]

Hi,

Can anybody tell me how I would get the same page to reload itself.

Basically I want the user to enter information and the script traps the errors and then reloads the page displaying the error message.

So basically it has to reload itself whilst passing the code for the error message to itself.

any ideas?

Just make the page do both parts of the transaction. If you call the page with no post variables then just display the form. If you call the page with post variables then do your error checking, and display the appropriate errors and the form again. If there are no errors then input the data and display the completed page.

Would this apply only if all the script was php (i.e. all between <? ?>)?

The page I have has only calls the php once the submit button has been pressed.

Should I recode the whole page so that all the html & javascript is in echo statements?

Perhaps I could put the html in a seperate file and just do an include? If the action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF?>" still work if it's in the included file or would it just load the inc file?

Personaly I program my pages. It's more work typing all of the print/echo statements, but I have complete control over what the page does.

You could include the HTML that is needed depending on what the logic of the page needs. This is the whole idea behind the template code that many people have written. Leave the HTML to the HTML designers and the PHP to the programmers.

I would program the whole lot too, but the design team did the HTML. I just have to add the PHP magic. If only they could make my life easier!!

I had a thought last night that the solution may be to start a session, and have a session variable holding the error code.

What do you think, good/bad idea?

I'll answer my own question. It was a good idea. Saved a lot of coding. 🙂
