[RESOLVED] Handle form problem?

[SJones]

Hello, I want to take the input name from the form and compare it to a predifined constant. And if it matches, then go to that URL - if it does not match I would like to go to a failure.php page. I am just learning php any coding help for the handle_form.php would be greatly appreciated. As this is written I am getting nothing. And being sent to this URL
http://www.rediheat.com/Miva/handle_form.php?code=abc&Submit=Submit

--------------------------------------------------Form------------------------------------------------
<form action="handle_form.php" method="get" name="affiliate_code" id="affiliate_code">
<p><b>Enter Affiliate Code</b>
<input name="code" type="text" size="6" maxlength="6">
</p>
<p>
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit">
</p>
</form>

----------------------------------------handle_form.php-------------------------------------------
<?php
define('CODE1', 'abc');
define('CODE2', 'xyz');
define('CODE3', '123');
if ($code == 'CODE1')
header ('Location: http://www.rediheat.com/abc.php');

if ($code == 'CODE2')
header ('Location: http://www.rediheat.com/xyz.php');

if ($code == 'CODE3')
header ('Location: http://www.rediheat.com/123.php');

?>

Why do you post this twice?

Anyhoe. In the other thread someone posted a switch statement based solution, which is what you should use

form

<form action="handle_form.php" method="get" name="affiliate_code" id="affiliate_code"> 
<p><b>Enter Affiliate Code</b> 
<input name="code" type="text" size="6" maxlength="6"> 
</p> 
<p> 
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit"> 
</p> 
</form> 

handle_form.php

<?php
if (isset($_GET)) {
	$code = $_GET['code'];
	if ($code == 'abc') {
		header ('Location: http://www.rediheat.com/abc.php');
	} else if ($code == 'xyz') {
		header ('Location: http://www.rediheat.com/xyz.php');
	} else if ($code == '123') {
		header ('Location: http://www.rediheat.com/123.php');
	} else {
		header ('Location: http://www.rediheat.com/failure.php');
	}
} else {
	header ('Location: http://www.rediheat.com/failure.php');
}

?>

should work
