Php_self

Snamelisch

I have got a problem. I get the errormessage below here after submitting the next form (this is the short form). I have got no clue what I am doing wrong.

The next form :

<form method="post" action="<?php echo basename($PHP_SELF) ; ?>" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<p><input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit">
</form>

leads to:

Errormessage:

You don't have permission to access /<br /><b>Notice</b>: Undefined variable: PHP_SELF in <b>e:/program files/apache group/apache/htdocs/store.php3</b> on line <b>14</b><br /> on this server.

I use

PHP version: 4.2.3
PHP extensions: standard, bcmath, calendar, com, ftp, mysql, odbc, pcre, session, xml, wddx, apache
PEAR is present
MySql version: 4.0.4-beta-max-nt
Apache 1.3.27

compiled by e-novative

Have you tried:

<form method="post" action="<?php echo basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']) ; ?>" enctype="multipart/form-data"> 
<p><input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit"> 
</form>

It works, with me! I know it's a bit slammy...

in the top og the php code, add:
ini_set ('error_reporting', E_ALL);
and you will set PHP error level handling, to the highest level, and bug seek you code while you are programming!

Why are you using

basename($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"])

instead of just this:

$_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]

they probably never tested the PHP_SELF variable to find out that it only reports filename.ext 😉

If all you're trying to do is submit a page to "itself," you should only need $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"].

I wasn't thinking logically when I posted that. 🙂

It works.

This closes this thread neatly. All have been said about this subject.

Thanks, now I can go on doing my stuff.
