Problem passing variables in php form.
- by Joshxtothe4
I have the following php form.
I am trying to make it so that when the form is loaded, the values will be assigned the appropriate check- variable. This variable will contain either "checked or "". If it contains checked, the way it is displayed with the html should cause the relevant checkbox to be checked.
As it is, the variables do not seem to be being passed. When I echo out $deleted or $notice from within the submitinfo branch, they are blank. Furthermore, nothing is being inserted into the database, and I am not getting any database error. How can I check this?
<?php
if (isset($_GET["cmd"]))
$cmd = $_GET["cmd"]; else
if (isset($_POST["cmd"]))
$cmd = $_POST["cmd"]; else
die("Invalid URL");
if (isset($_GET["pk"])) {
$pk = $_GET["pk"];
}
if (isset($_POST["deleted"])) {
$deleted = $_POST["deleted"];
}
if (isset($_POST["notice"])) {
$notice = $_POST["notice"];
}
$con = mysqli_connect("localhost","user","password", "db");
if (!$con) {
echo "Can't connect to MySQL Server. Errorcode: %s\n". mysqli_connect_error();
exit;
}
$con->set_charset("utf8");
$getformdata = $con->query("select * from STATUS where ARTICLE_NO = '$pk'");
$checkDeleted = "";
$checkNotice = "";
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($getformdata)) {
$checkDeleted = $row['deleted'];
$checkNotice = $row['notice'];
}
if($cmd=="submitinfo") {
$statusQuery = "INSERT INTO STATUS VALUES (?, ?)";
if ($statusInfo = $con->prepare($statusQuery)) {
$statusInfo->bind_param("ss", $deleted, $notice);
$statusInfo->execute();
$statusInfo->close();
echo "true";
} else {
echo "false";
}
print_r($con->error);
}
if($cmd=="EditStatusData") {
echo "<form name=\"statusForm\" action=\"test.php\" method=\"post\" enctype=\"multipart/form-data\">
<h1>Editing information for auction: ".$pk."</h1>
Löschung Ebay:
<input type=\"checkbox\" name=\"deleted\" value=\"checked\" ".$checkDeleted." />
<br />
Abmahnung:
<input type=\"checkbox\" name=\"notice\" value=\"checked\" ".$checkNotice." />
<br />
<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"cmd\" value=\"submitinfo\" />
<input name=\"Submit\" type=\"submit\" value=\"submit\" />
</form>";
} else {
print_r($con->error);
}
