Need *particular* PHP Script

Have you searched http://hotscripts.com or http://resourceindex.com for what you want?

If you can't find one, it probably wouldn't be too difficult to modify the script you have.

Hi, Mark!

Yeah, I've looked there but can't quite find what I need.

Any hints on how to modify?

Cheers,

Fred

BTw, a copy of the script I'm trying to edit can be found here: http://www.omt.net/imediatouch/1.php

It places the red text following no input at the top (I want it on top of each unentered field instead) and it doesn't keep what the user already entered, forcing the user to input everything as well as what was missed again.

Oh yes, I also need it to redirect to a specific page after processing rather than refresh the same page and be able to include check box fields entered.

Sorry if I sound like I'm asking for a lot, I'm pretty much a newbie at this stuff.

Thanks

Fred

I need to see the source.

for the form fields you can do it with if statements, this is a very rough example.

check box fields are similar, used the the 'name' value, each form field should have a name=something.

the method in the form tag is your redirect bit, you can also surround the form in a if(!submit) ... to make sure all values have options.

I didnt see the page, but as Mark said, display the code and exact help can be given.

Thanks, guys for the help. Here's the code, as per your requests. Thanks for your continued help!

For future reference, you may be able to save the file as file.phps and upload it to your server, then people can view the source of the php file. I find it's a useful trick for showing source. The only caveat is that the source replaces every space with a non-breaking space, which means if you copy and paste, the code won't work. Hard to find that error if you don't know about the space/non-breaking space issue.

I'm not going to be much help with the php part (sorry) but you might find it easier to edit this file if you ditch the font tags. And possibly fix the code up, but that's a whole other area.

It looks like the code only checks for a name and email. It doesn't check any of the other form fields at all. Did you want it to check all the form fields?

You might find JavaScript data validation an option.

Thanks for the tips.
Well, the trick is that I don'tknow much about PHP tagging and am in a serious hurry to figure this out. I'm using Javascript validation on the original version of the form along with a CGI formmail script, but my boss needs the PHP version. That's why it only checks for name and e-mail right now, because my attempts at playing with the code aren't working.

Here's the code online:

If you know how to use the JavaScript validation (testing), you can do the same thing with PHP. I'm sure there is a more efficient way to do this, but since you're in a hurry, I'll see if maybe this will help.

First, when I try to do programming beyond my skill, I work out how I want it to work -- if this field is empty, show this alert, else move on to next field. What I would ideally like to see is that the entire form is returned with all typed values in place (except bad ones, like non-valid email addresses, et cetera), but that might be too much? (if no, show alert, else print typed value). It would mean splitting the form into two pages, one that does the form and gets the values right, and the next that takes the details from the form and prints them with a confirmation note.

Then, another trick (I'm all about tricks):

Email: ">

Or alternatively...

<? if (test) { ?>

Email:

<? } elseif (other test) { ?>

Email address needs to be in [email protected] format
Email:

<? } else { ?>

Email: ">

<? } ?>

...

That sort of thing.

Does that help at all?
