Hi All,

This is only basic, but its got me in knots!! doing my head in...

Oks,

On 1 page i have 3 submit buttons

echo "<form method=\"post\" action=\"modules.php?name=$module_name&file=main\">
<table width=\"100%\"  border=\"0\">
  <tr>
    <td width=\"50%\" align=\"center\"><img src=\"images/PNUKEbut.jpg\" width=\"135\" height=\"70\"><BR>
	<input name=\"$PNuke\" type=\"submit\" value=\"PHP Nuke\">
	</td>
    <td width=\"50%\" align=\"center\"><img src=\"images/PNbut.jpg\" width=\"135\" height=\"70\"><BR>
	<input name=\"$PN\" type=\"submit\" value=\"Post Nuke\">
	</td>
  </tr>
</table>
<table width=\"100%\"  border=\"0\">
  <tr>
    <td align=\"center\"><img src=\"images/BBbut.jpg\" width=\"135\" height=\"70\"><BR>
	<input name=\"$PBB\" type=\"submit\" value=\"PHPbb\">
	</td>
  </tr>
</table>
</form>";

Then on the second page i have:

$PNuke = "PHP Nuke";
$PN = "Post Nuke";
$PBB = "PHPbb";

Now what i am having a probelm with, how do i get the text (PHP Nuke... Post Nuke ect) displayed in here :

		.  "<tr valign='top'>"
		.  	 "<td>"
		.      "<label for='name'><strong>"._SFTEMPLATE."</strong></label>"
		.      "<br>"
		.      "<input id='type' type='text' name='type' disabled='true' readonly='true' size='30' maxlength='100' value='[WHAT CODE DO I PUT HERE???]'>"
		.    "</td>"
		.  "</tr>"

Thanks to any one helps 🙂

Read up on $_POST.

LiLaaron

So do i just put $_POST in the value of my text box?

i am a little confused, on how to write the code to use $_POST 🙁

LiLaaron

I did what i just mentioned above and i just get

Array

:glare:

Nixon

$_POST['variable']

e.g

$_POST['PHPNuke']

and change PHPNuke for whatever variable you want. Make sure you have passed your variables through a form though, read up again on the $_POST link provided.

LiLaaron

i am still stuck 🙁

heres my code i got for both files

index.php

echo "<form method=\"post\" action=\"modules.php?name=$module_name&file=main\">
<table width=\"100%\"  border=\"0\">
  <tr>
    <td width=\"50%\" align=\"center\"><img src=\"images/PNUKEbut.jpg\" width=\"135\" height=\"70\"><BR>
	<input type='hidden' name='Post' value='$_POST'>
	<input name=\"$PNuke\" type=\"submit\" value=\"PHP Nuke\">
	</td>
    <td width=\"50%\" align=\"center\"><img src=\"images/PNbut.jpg\" width=\"135\" height=\"70\"><BR>
	<input type='hidden' name='Post' value='$_POST'>
	<input name=\"$PN\" type=\"submit\" value=\"Post Nuke\">
	</td>
  </tr>
</table>
<table width=\"100%\"  border=\"0\">
  <tr>
    <td align=\"center\"><img src=\"images/BBbut.jpg\" width=\"135\" height=\"70\"><BR>
	<input type='hidden' name='Post' value='$_POST'>
	<input name=\"$PBB\" type=\"submit\" value=\"PHPbb\">
	</td>
  </tr>
</table>
</form>";

TOP of main.php

$PNuke = $_POST['PHP Nuke'];
$PN = $_POST['Post Nuke'];
$PBB = $_POST['PHPbb'];

Form of main.php where i want PHP Nuke or Post Nuke or PHPbb to display

                       .  "<tr valign='top'>"
		.  	 "<td>"
		.      "<label for='name'><strong>"._SFTEMPLATE."</strong></label>"
		.      "<br>"
		.      "<input id='type' type='text' name='type' readonly='true' size='30' maxlength='100' value='$HTTP_POST_VARS'>"
		.    "</td>"
		.  "</tr>"

Hope some1 can help, i have read that link, but there isnt anything helping me 🙁

Thanks

LiLaaron

bumped 🙁

i cant do any of my other coding... till i work out this shitty thing :bemused:

Nixon

You can't get on with any of oyur other coding? From what I see here if you can't sort out this simple piece of code then, you're far from coding anything, have you actually read up on how to post variables from 1 page to another? If so this would be a simple task.

LiLaaron

i already no how to post varibles from 1 page to another... but i just dont know how to display it.

Ill tell you what i want... u tell me if it can be done... and by the pages u pointed out to me...

On the index page i have 3 buttons, Saying 3 different things, PHP Nuke, Post Nuke and PHPBB, when the user clicks either one of them, in the main.php page in a textbox i want the text they clicked displayed here, so 1 they dont have to type it in there selfs. when i have worked this out, i would then have the information saved to the database and viewed only by me, by calling the information, this is the easy part, i just cannot work out the first bit.

😕

You're trying to display the entire POST array in a single text field?

LiLaaron

No mate,

On the first page its only a button... its its just 1 or 2 words i want in there🙁

Elliott

You want your form variable for each form... like

$form1
$form2
$form 3

Then on the next page u want to display it so u need to call what uve posted from the previous page.

$result1 = $_POST['form1'];

then to display it

"<input id='type' type='text' name='type' readonly='true' size='30' maxlength='100' value='$result1'>"

LiLaaron

Nothing happened...

Please look at the site... then hopefully ur all understand what i am trying to do

http://www.graphix.ws/test/html/modules.php?name=Submit_form

Elliott

hmmm on your page with the buttons on, i looked at the source and none of your buttons have a "name". They are all name="" so not sure how u would call the values on the next page.

if u named them like button1, button2, button3 etc, couldnt u just...

"<input id='type' type='text' name='type' readonly='true' size='30' maxlength='100' value='$_POST['button1']'>"

Im not an expert, but thats all i can think of, sorry m8

LiLaaron

Its oks mate...

On the actual page with the buttons the code is this :

<input name=\"$NUKE\" type=\"submit\" value=\"PHP Nuke\">
	</td>

<input name=\"$PNUKE\" type=\"submit\" value=\"Post Nuke\">
	</td>

<input name=\"$PHPBB\" type=\"submit\" value=\"PHPbb\">
	</td>

But if i did what you say:

"<input id='type' type='text' name='type' readonly='true' size='30' maxlength='100' value='$_POST['$NUKE']'>"

Then whatever button the user clicked it will all be the same.

Is there a script that would be like:

If you click on this (PHP Nuke) button then display this text,
else... if you click this (Post Nuke) button, it will display this text,
else... if you click this (PHPbb) button, it will display this text

I dunno... but this is what i am trying to find out...

LiLaaron

i guess the only way i am gona get what i want is too make another 2 forms...

So then if the user clicks on like PHPbb it will open a PHPbb page...

but this is what i didnt want to do... but now i guess i have no choice.

Thanks to all that tried to help!

Lcousins

right.... see if this makes sense -

depending on what button you press you are creating a variable name and a value for that variable that gets taken to the next page.

using your buttons you are creating a variable called either '$NUKE' or '$PNUKE' or '$PHPBB' , except that in this case whichever button you are pressing the variable is getting the name '' (as in nothing) because $NUKE, $PNUKE and $PHPBB are not set in your index.php.

anyway, try the following code .....

replace -

<input name="$NUKE\" type=\"submit\" value=\"PHP Nuke\"> 
    </td> 

<input name=\"$PNUKE\" type=\"submit\" value=\"Post Nuke\"> 
    </td> 

<input name=\"$PHPBB\" type=\"submit\" value=\"PHPbb\">

with -

<input name=\"nuketype\" type=\"submit\" value=\"PHPNuke\"> 
    </td> 

<input name=\"nuketype\" type=\"submit\" value=\"PostNuke\"> 
    </td> 

<input name=\"nuketype\" type=\"submit\" value=\"PHPbb\">

and in your main.php file replace

"<input id='type' type='text' name='type' readonly='true' size='30' maxlength='100' value='$HTTP_POST_VARS'>"

with

"<input id='type' type='text' name='type' readonly='true' size='30' maxlength='100' value='$nuketype'>"

then you should get the result you desire.

Nixon

<input id='type' type='text' name='type' readonly='true' size='30' maxlength='100' value='$_POST['nuketype']'>

You forgot the $_POST 😛

LiLaaron

Hmmmm

nuketype in the box :glare:

No one understands what i want... so whats the point.. ill just use a selection box... easierrrrr

or ill just have 3 forms... one for each button

and Nixon... why you keep on mentioning $_POST... the Index page is not posting anything!! its just a button!! but thanks anyways for your help 🙂

Nixon mentions the $POST because it's what is needed. Your form POSTs to the index.php file. So in order to reference variables, you MUST use $POST['variable'] or $_REQUEST['varialbe'].

What is it you're trying to do? I didn't see once where you explained clearly what you wanted to do; and, double posting across forums won't help you either.

Here's my guess:

Your form:

<form method="post" action="modules.php?name=Submit_form&file=main">
  <table width="100%"  border="0">
    <tr>
      <td width="50%" align="center"><img src="images/PNUKEbut.jpg" width="135" height="70"><BR>
	<input name="nuketype" type="submit" value="PHPNuke">
      </td>
      <td width="50%" align="center"><img src="images/PNbut.jpg" width="135" height="70"><BR>
        <input name="nuketype" type="submit" value="PostNuke">
      </td>
    </tr>
  </table>
</form>

Your php page:

<?php

$nuke_type = $_POST['nuketype'];

// Do whatever else you need to . . .

echo "<input id='type' type='text' name='type' disabled='true' readonly='true' size='30' maxlength='100' value='".$nuke_type."'>";

// Do whatever else you need to . . .
?>

That will take the value of the button nuketype and display it as the value of an input field.
