    Yes, now it works. This is beyond my knowledge, thank you.
  2. Truman
    This is interesting...when I open a file in browser ( file > open ) it shows "password" and "confirm password". But when I run it through server ( localhost ) nothing again. Any idea why this glitch?
  3. Truman
    No, and the case is that other inputs are there ( Email Address etc. ). Now I will correct this mistake. edit: After eding <body> everything stays the same, no password.

    I created a HTML registration form with input type password but when I run HTML in my xampp server I see no "password" nor "confirm password". Verification shows that my syntax is OK. <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/ DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/> <title>Registration Form</title> </head> <!-- Script 6.1 - register.html --> <div><p>Please, complete this form to register:</p> <form action="handle_reg.php" method="post"> <p>Email Address: <input type="text" name="email" size="30" /></p> <p>Password: <input type="password" name="password" size="20" /></p> <p>Confirm Password: <input type="password" name="confirm" size="20" /></p> <p>Year you were born: <input type="text" name="year" value="YYYY" size="4" /></p> <p>Favorite Color: <select name="color"> <option value="">Pick One</option> <option value="red">Red</option> <option value="yellow">Yellow</option> <option value="green">Green</option> <option value="blue">Blue</option> </select></p> <p><input type="checkbox" name="terms" value="Yes" />I agree to the terms (whatever they may be).</p> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Register" /></form> </div> </body> </html>

    I'm attaching this file if you are interested to take a look. posting.html
  6. Truman
    Ok, I see it> $_POST['last_name]; I forgot a single quotation mark after last_name. And I also spotted a mistake in line 14. Now everything is fine. I will do my best to try to figure out these beginners mistakes before I post here.

    I have a problem with this code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTDXHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/> <title>Forum Posting</title> </head> <body> <?php // Script 5.2 - handle_post.php $first_name = $_POST['first_name']; $last_name = $_POST['last_name]; $posting = $_POST['posting']; $name = $first_name . ' ' . $last_name; print "<div>Thank you, $name, for your posting":<p>$posting</p></div>"; ?> </body> </html> After I enter data to html form it says: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'posting' (T_STRING), expecting ']' in C:\xampp\htdocs\my-site\handle_post.php on line 12
  8. Truman
    I don't know how is this possible but now html form runs just fine...
  9. Truman
    Do you want me to place this file on external server? I'm not sure how to do that yet. If with html file is the same procedure with wordpress using FileZilla I may try but don't feel like opening new free server address right now.
  10. Truman
    The same problem occures after the change. I don't get why. This is by the book.
  11. Truman
    This is my code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTDXHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/> <title>Forum Posting</title> </head> <body> <!-- Script 5.1 posting.html --> <div><p>Please complete this form to submit your posting:</p> <form action="handle_post.php" method="post"> <p>First Name: <input type="text" name="first_name" size="20" /></p> <p>Last Name: <input type="text" name="last_name" size="20" /></p> <p>Email Address: <input type="text" name="email" size="30" /></p> <p>Posting: <textarea name="posting" rows="9" cols="30"></textarea></p> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Send My Posting" /> </form> </div> </body> </html> and this is what I receive: Any idea why this is happening?
  12. Truman
    beginner's mistake, thanks again.
  13. Truman
    Thank you. Now I'm working on ecommerce task. I made a html form for entering data about purchasing and php to handle it and calculates things. <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTDXHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTDxhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/> <title>Product Cost Calculator</title> </head> <body><!-- Script 4.1 - calculator.html --> <div><p>Fill out this form to calculate the total cost:</p> <form action="handle_calc.php" method="post"> <p>Price: <input type="text" name="price" size="5" /></p> <p>Quantity: <input type="text" name="quantity" size="5" /></p> <p>Discount: <input type="text" name="discount" size="5" /></p> <p>Tax: <input type="text" name="tax" size="3" /> (%)</p> <p>Shipping method: <select name="shipping"> <option value="5.00">Slow and steady</option> <option value="8.95">Put a move on it.</option> <option value="19.36">I need it yesterday!</option> </select></p> <p>Number of payments to make:<input type="text" name="payments" size="3" /></p> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Calculate!" /> </form> </div> </body> </html> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/ xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/> <title>Product Cost Calculator</title> <style type="text/html" media="screen"> .number{font-weigh="bold";} </style> </head> <body> <?php // Script 4.2 - handle_calc.php $price = $_POST['price']; $quantity = $_POST['quantity']; $discount = $_POST['discount'] $tax = $_POST['tax']; $shipping = $_POST['shipping']; $payments = $_POST['payments']; $total = $price * $quantity; $total = $total + $shipping; $total = $total - $discount; $taxrate = $tax/100; $taxrate = $taxrate + 1; $tax = $total * $taxrate; $monthly = $total / $payments; Print "<p>You have selected to purchase: <br /> <span class=\"number\">quantity></span> widget(s) at: <br /> $<span class=\"number\">$price</span> price each plus a <br /> $<span class=\"number\">$shipping</span> shipping cost and a <br /> <span class=\"number\">$tax</span> percent tax rate. <br /> After your $<span=\"number\">$discount</span> discount, the total cost is $<span class=\"number\">$total</span>.<br /> Divided over<span class=\"number\">$payments</span> monthly payments that would be $<span class=\"number\">$monthly</span>each.</p>" ?> </body> </html> The message that I receive is: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '$tax' (T_VARIABLE) in C:\xampp\htdocs\my-site\handle_calc.php on line 16 I don't understand what is wrong in line 16: $tax = $_POST['tax']; The php code checker signalizes the same error.

    I minor problem this time. I'm practising sending data to server without html form. So, the first code is html with <a href=...> and the second is php that receives data from html. <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTDXHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en"lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content Type" content="text/txt" charset="utf-8"/> <title>Greetings!</title> </head> <body> <!-- Script 3.6 - hello.html --> <div><p>Click a link to say hello:</p> <ul> <li><a href="hello.php?name=Michael">Michael</a></li> <li><a href="hello.php?name=Celia">Celia</a></li> <li><a href="hello.php?name=Jude">Jude</a></li> <li><a href="hello.php?name=Sophie">Sophie</a></li> </ul> </div> </body> </html> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" 2 "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/ xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> 3 <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> 4 <head> 5 <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> 6 <title>Greetings!</title> 7 </head> 8 <body> 9 <?php // Script 3.7 hello.php ini_set ('display_errors', 1); error_reporting (E_ALL | E_STRICT); $name = $_GET['name']; print "<p>Hello,<span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">$name</span>!</p>"; ?> 22 </body> 23 </html> This time I received: 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Hello,Michael! 22 23 Why those numbers appeared? They are propably lines in notepad++.
  15. Truman
    A friend helped me with editing code, this is how it should look: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html" charset="utf-8"/> <title>Your Feedback</title> </head> <body> <?php // Script 3.3 handle_form.php // This page receives data from feedback.php // It will receive: title, name, email, response, comments, and submit in $_POST. $title = $_POST['title']; $name = $_POST['name']; $response = $_POST['response']; $comments = $_POST['comments']; print "<p>Thank you, {$title} {$name}, for your comments</p> <p>You stated that you found this example to be '{$response}' and added:<br />{$comments}</p>"; ?></body> </html> So basically, he only added curly braces in quotes to variables in paragraph...
  16. Truman
    I use notepad++. I will procceed with next task and see what will happen. Maybe I'll come back to these that don't work.
  17. Truman
    Yes, I gave a php extension and I use XAMPP that has php installed. By the way, it did execute php code for some simple things such as phpinfo function. Whenever I made a mistake that needed to be fixed after I did it the server didn't respond well.
  18. Truman
    No hidden extension, I follow the book "PHP for the web" by Larry Ullman. Everything is as in the book. After first few fails I even copy-pasted codes but nothing changes... After rerunning your edited code it says: Thank you, '.$title.' '.$name.', for your comments'; echo ' You stated that you found this example to be \''.$response.'\' and added: '.$comments.' '; ?>
  19. Truman
    Now the response is: Thank you, '.$title.' '.$name.', for your comments'; echo ' You stated that you found this example to be \''.$response.'\' and added: .'$comments.' '; ?> Using print should be ok, I have a feeling that something is wrong with my server, XAMPP is in actions but I don't get why these kind of responses for different files that I tried to execute.
  20. Truman
    what I get when I fulfill the html form is: Thank you, $title $name, for your comments You stated that you found this example to be '$response' and added: $comments "; ?> /body>
  21. Truman
    I am sorry, I don't understand your previous comment. And I have a similar problem with my next task. I created two files ( html form and php ) but it doesn't execute properly. Check it if you wish: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/> <title>Feedback Form</title> </head> <body> <!-- Script 3.1 feedback.html --> <div><p>Please, complete this form to submit a feedback:</p></div> <form method="post" action="handle_form.php"> <p>Name: <select name="title"> <option value="Mr.">Mr.</option> <option value="Mrs.">Mrs.</option> <option value="Ms.">Ms.</option> </select><input type="text" name="name" size="20" /></p> <p>Email Address: <input type="text" name="email" size="20" /></p> <p>Response: This is... <input type="radio" name="response" value="excellent" /> excellent <input type="radio" name="response" value="okay" />Okay <input type="radio" name="response" value="boring" />boring</p> <p>Comments: <textarea name="comments" rows="3" cols="30"></textarea></p> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Send My Feedback" /> </form> </div> </body> </html> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/ xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html"; charset="utf-8"/> <title>Your Feedback</title> </head> <body> <?php // Script 3.3 handle_form.php // This page receives data from feedback.php // It will receive: title, name, email, response, comments, and submit in $_POST. $title = $_POST['title']; $name = $_POST['name']; $response = $_POST['response']; $comments = $_POST['comments']; print "<p>Thank you, $title $name, for your comments</p> <p>You stated that you found this example to be '$response' and added:<br />$comments</p>"; ?> </body> </html>
  22. Truman
    Yes, it's with utf-8. It's interesting that when I first wrote the code I made a mistake on line 18. When I corrected that mistake and tried to execute the code but the message was the same.
  23. Truman
    I corrected this line to: print "<h1>Basic Info</h1><p>My name is $name, I am $age years old.<br/>My nationality is $nationality. My lastname is $lastname</p>"; ...but it still doesn't work and the message I receive is the same.
  24. Truman
    I'm working on my php skills and I run .php files on XAMPP server but it signals parse error even when php code checker sees no problem. This is one of the codes that I wrote: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/ xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head>5 <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Quotes</title> </head> <body> <?php // Script 2.4 - pursue3.php $name = "M"; $age = 29; $lastname = 'B'; $nationality = "S"; print "<h1>Basic Info</h1><p>My name is $name, I am $age years old.<br/>My nationality is $nationality. My lastname is $lastname</p>" ?> </body> </html> When I execute this code on my localhost it says: "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '?' in C:\xampp\htdocs\my-site\pursue3.php on line 18" It happened with last 3 php files that I wrote. I know what a parse error is, I just don't see where I made any mistake.
  25. Truman
    I'm learning PHP from w3school tutorial and I need explenation about "!", for example take a look at this code: <?php $int = 100; if (!filter_var($int, FILTER_VALIDATE_INT) === false) { echo("Integer is valid"); } else { echo("Integer is not valid"); } ?> Why is there exclamation mark in this code? And one more thing: if filter_validate_int ( or any other filter ) is false that is because the filter didn't catch any error and therefore, in this case integer, is valid. Did I get this correct?
