I have a php page which displays certain profile data like Name,Username,Phone,Addres etc which were passed as params in url.Now after saving those details the page is being redirected to an html login page where I need to display the Username value in the text field for the Username.I tried to pass the username from php to html in many ways but in vain.By what means can i pass the username from the php page to html login page and display it in Username text field?
if you don't use any PHP Framework then you can save it by session or cookies. Then on login page you can get it and show
Use a php Site for login and than use this code at your registerscript (php) (be sure this is the first thing send to the client no echo before this)
header("LOCATION: http://www.something.com?username=walter&secoundusername=white");
In your login page you can access the data with
if(isset($_GET('username'))){
$username = $_GET('username');
}...
I hope this works for you.
your question is not too clear, however if the html login page is just a static page, i don't see how your request could be achieved.
If instead it's a php generated html page, then you may pass the variable via a hidden input field for example.
You could use the fputs php function to create a html page
<?php
$fp = fopen("file.html", 'w+');
fputs($fp, "YOUR HTML CODE");
fputs($fp, "YOUR HTML CODE");
fputs($fp, "$variable");
fclose($fp);
?>
<a href='file.html'>Link</a>
You can pass username as parameter in URL like
http://yoursite.com/login.html?username=abc
and in login.html use javascript to get the url parameter and assign it to textbox.
function getParamURL(param) {
return decodeURIComponent((new RegExp('[?|&]' + param + '=' + '([^&;]+?)(&|#|;|$)').exec(location.search)||[,""])[1].replace(/\+/g, '%20'))||null
}
var username = getParamURL('username');
document.getElementById("username").value= username;
suppose your textbox id is username then it should assign it to that text box
Here is the login page
<?php
if($_POST)
{
include("Connect.php");
$Username=$_POST["Username"];
$Password=$_POST["Password"];
$Query="select Username from user where username='$Username' and password='$Password' LIMIT 1";
$Result=mysql_query($Query);
while($R=mysql_fetch_array($Result))
{
header("location:main.html?username='$R[0]'");
}
}
?>
<form action="<?=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ?>" method="POST">
<input type="text" name="Username">
<input type="text" name="Password">
<input type="submit"/>
</form>
Here is how you could retrieve the page.The variable needs to be a php page
<html>
<p>Welcome</p> <?php
$Name=$_GET["username"];
echo $Name;
?>
</html>

I have a form.
<form action="form.php" method="POST" name="form1" id="f1">
On this form is an input for a name.
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="n1" placeholder="Name" required>
The user inputs their name and clicks submit, the form.php then kicks in and this name is emailed to an email address.
$name = $_POST['n1'];
If this is successful the user is redirected to another page via;
header("Location: /anotherpage.html");
Up to this point everything works fine.
On this page is a HTML table with a table data cell;
<td id="table1"></td>
Q. What I am trying to do is when the user is redirected to this page the name they submit appears in the tables data cell.
I have tried a couple of things with no success.
On the HTML side;
value="<?php echo $name;?>" & value="<?php echo $_POST['n1'];?>" within the td tag.
<?php echo $name;?> & <?php echo $_POST['n1'];?> between the td tags.
& on the PHP side after the redirect header;
getElementById('n1').value = $name;
getElementById('n1').value = $_POST['n1'];
Is there a way of doing this?
Look forward to hearing from anyone
Kind Regards
You can send the name over the url using the header using PHP...
// check the submission of your form using the name set in the submit button...
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
// DO NOT SKIP ON SANITIZING YOUR INPUTS!!!!!
// This example is very basic, I am not showing how to sanitize inputs
$fname = filter_var(strip_tags($_POST['fname'], FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING));
$lname = filter_var(strip_tags($_POST['lname'], FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING));
// do your email stuff
// after you have done all your other code, send the name
// key/value pair over the url using the header...
header("Location: someotherpage.html?fname=".fname ."&lname=".lname);
}
Once you have sent the values over the url to the someotherpage.html page you can use URLSearchParams to search the url for key parameters to get their paired value/s. window.location.search => The query string portion of the URL. This includes the question mark, and everything following. Use .get() to get the url's parameters using their key. Then you can assign them using javascript with the dataset attribute => element.dataset.fname = firstName.
let parameters = new URLSearchParams(window.location.search);
let firstName = parameters.get('fname');
let lastName = parameters.get('lname');
let div = document.getElementById('data');
div.dataset.fname = `${firstName} ${lastName}`;
Returns the following on someotherpage.html :
I am completely new to PHP and HTML. I want to send a session variable from PHP to client-side i,e HTML so that I can show which user is currently present.
If I just pass the variable to another php file present at the same location it does happen but I want to exchange the variable from server residing at local host to client at some other location Can any one help me in this
Thanks
let suppose you have a form in html
<form method="post" action="any.php">
<input type="text" name="fname" id="fname">
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
now in php you are getting input value
<?php
if isset($_POST["name"]){
$_SESSION["sessionname"] = $_POST["name"];
}
?>
so far you have taken input value from html and have stored in session with the name sessionname now you are going to show it in html again
<h1>welcome user : <?php echo $_SESSION["sessionname"]; ?> </h1>
you will need session_start(); on the very beginning of all php pages otherwise you will lose the scope of session variable.

I am trying to get a form to submit automatically, which feeds a username and password to another form.
If I remove the javascript and just have the form display on the screen, and manually click the Submit button, the result is I get automatically logged in on the resulting page. This is the result I want.
If I leave the javascript in place, it actually doesn't automatically log me in but it does pass across the username and password pre-filled on the resulting page, then I have to click Submit on the resulting page.
How can I make it automatically submit the form to work the same way as a user actually hitting the submit button? Also I understand that this may not be the most secure way to pass a username and password across, but this is for a special use case.
Note: MyForm is a php page, and I am submitting to an aspx page.
Here is code of what my form would look like:
<form id='myForm' method='post' action='https://blah.com/Login.aspx'>";
<p>Username: <input value='usernameHere' name='Username' type='text' id='Username' data-index='0' maxlength='255' placeholder='Username' class='loginUsername' />";
<p>Password: <input value='passwordHere' name='Password' type='password' id='Password' placeholder='Password' />";
<p><input type='submit' name='btnSignIn' value='Sign In' id='btnSignIn' />
</form>
<script type="text/javascript">
document.getElementById('myForm').submit();
</script>
Thank you.
I suspect there are other issues at play, as using JS to submit the form should replicate a native browser submit.
You can try simulating clicking the 'submit' button via JavaScript:
JavaScript:
document.getElementById('btnSignIn').click();
jQuery:
$('#btnSignIn').click();
You can use onload method for javascript
function submitForm() {
// **NOTE** set form values first
document.getElementById('myForm').submit();
}
window.onload = submitForm;
Or with jQuery if you want:
$(function(){
submitForm();
});
or with tag attribute
he typical options is using the onload event:
<body onload="javascript:submitForm()">
.
.
As the problem is supposed "post a form through php" . It may be achived by using PHP€™s functions fsockopen() and fputs() to send properly formatted data to a remote server. Here is a sample of code :
<?php
//create array of data to be posted
$post_data['Username'] = 'XYZ';
$post_data['Password'] = '********';
$post_data['btnSignIn']="Sign In";
//traverse array and prepare data for posting (key1=value1)
foreach ( $post_data as $key => $value) {
$post_items[] = $key . '=' . $value;
}
//create the final string to be posted using implode()
$post_string = implode ('&', $post_items);
//we also need to add a question mark at the beginning of the string
$post_string = '?' . $post_string;
//we are going to need the length of the data string
$data_length = strlen($post_string);
//let's open the connection
$connection = fsockopen('https://blah.com', 80);
//sending the data
fputs($connection, "POST /Login.aspx HTTP/1.1\r\n");
fputs($connection, "Host: https://blah.com \r\n");
fputs($connection,
"Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n");
fputs($connection, "Content-Length: $data_length\r\n");
fputs($connection, "Connection: close\r\n\r\n");
fputs($connection, $post_string);
//closing the connection
fclose($connection);
?>
The above codes do post your form now to get redirect to that page , use simply
header('location :https://blah.com/Login.aspx ');
I am trying to send an email when an html button is clicked then redirect to an html confirmation page. All my code is in the same php file except for the confirmation page. It redirects with no problem just doesn't send email on button click. It was working at one point but it would send the email as soon as the page loaded. I've searched the internet for days and here is what I'm currently trying:
<form action="confirm.html" method="post" name= "confirm">
<?php
echo('<input type="button" value="Submit" onclick="this.form.submit();">');
?>
</form>
<?php
$to="mail#hello.com";
$subject= "New Application";
$message= "Name: ".$Name;
$headers= "";
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
echo "<body onload=\"self.close();\">";
?>
I am trying to send an email when an html button is clicked then redirect to an html confirmation page.
The above code will send an email as soon as the page loads. If you want to send an email when the form has been submitted, you will need to wrap your emailing code in a post-checking block, the send a location header for the redirect.
You also need some named element with a value to include in the post, for example:
<input type="button" name="submit" value="Submit" />
Then in your PHP you can use
<?php
if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
// Your email() code
// Redirect to another page
header("Location: http://example.com/confirmation.php");
die();
} else {
// echo/include your form here
}
Be sure to put this code at the top of your PHP page before any HTML has been written or else header() will not function correctly.
I'm making a simple todo list: http://jsbin.com/pemeqeni/1/edit?html,output
I want to be able to email myself the list, and I'm wondering how to do this with PHP specifically. I thought about scraping the HTML with DOMdocument, but I think that will only get the content from the static HTML page, which will never have list items. My other idea is to dynamically create a bunch of hidden input fields in the emailForm and dynamically delete them just as I do with the list items. Are there any other options? What's the standard protocol for something like this?
Something like this should work for getting all list elements.
<script>
function getEachListElement() {
var testList = document.getElementsByClassName("todoBody");
for (var i = 0; i < testList.length; i++) {
document.writeln(testList[i].innerHTML);
}
}
</script>
Try it out by changing your form action to this
<form name="emailForm" method="GET" action="JavaScript:getEachListElement()">
Then you can just create a string that you pass to PHP to email to yourself.
Have you tried the php mail function?
ie
<?
mail( $email, $subject , $text );
?>
Instead of get I would use post then set up a php script you call where you put your values(strings) into variables using $_post and use the mail function to mail those variables(strings).
just to be more clear your html would look like this
<form name="emailForm" method="POST" action="getContent.php">
<input type="text" name="email" value="email"><input type="submit" value="send">
</form>
Your getContent.php would then look like this
<?
$myemail = "myemail#tada.com";
$email = $_POST["email"];
mail ($myemail, 'The shiz you wanted', $email);
?>
