is it possible to send information from a htm file to a php file even tho the php file actions itself?

i have 2 files.
send.htm
getstarted.php

i want to pass values from send.htm to getstarted.php without the getstartedform.php being submitted. the only thing is that when getstarted.php is filled out, it then performs the action on itself because all the database info and check are in the same file.

anyway round this at all?

i have this javascript validation working a few days ago. now, it is only part working. one if statement does a check on fields entered like name, email address, postcode etc. the other if statement deals with radio buttons. now the radio button script doesnt work at all. does anyone know how that can be?
Code: [ Select ]
if (mainform.contactpostcode.value=='')
        {
        alert('Your contact postcode is a required field. Please try again.');
        event.returnValue=false;
        }
    if (!(mainform.doyouneed[0].checked || mainform.doyouneed[1].checked || mainform.doyouneed[2].checked || mainform.doyouneed[3].checked))
        {
        alert('Your need is a required field. Please try again.');
        event.returnValue=false;
        }
  1. if (mainform.contactpostcode.value=='')
  2.         {
  3.         alert('Your contact postcode is a required field. Please try again.');
  4.         event.returnValue=false;
  5.         }
  6.     if (!(mainform.doyouneed[0].checked || mainform.doyouneed[1].checked || mainform.doyouneed[2].checked || mainform.doyouneed[3].checked))
  7.         {
  8.         alert('Your need is a required field. Please try again.');
  9.         event.returnValue=false;
  10.         }

the code is pretty self explanitory. i can see that the getstartedform performs its own action and therefore the send.htm will act in a similar way. here is the send.htm code:
Code: [ Select ]
<body>
<form name="form1" id="form1" method="post" action="getstartedform.php">
 <table width="410" border="0">
  <tr>
   <td width="139">name</td>
   <td width="261"><input type="text" name="name" /></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
   <td>email</td>
   <td><input type="text" name="email" /></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
   <td>&nbsp;</td>
   <td><input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit" /></td>
  </tr>
 </table>
</form>
</body>
  1. <body>
  2. <form name="form1" id="form1" method="post" action="getstartedform.php">
  3.  <table width="410" border="0">
  4.   <tr>
  5.    <td width="139">name</td>
  6.    <td width="261"><input type="text" name="name" /></td>
  7.   </tr>
  8.   <tr>
  9.    <td>email</td>
  10.    <td><input type="text" name="email" /></td>
  11.   </tr>
  12.   <tr>
  13.    <td>&nbsp;</td>
  14.    <td><input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit" /></td>
  15.   </tr>
  16.  </table>
  17. </form>
  18. </body>


now here is the coding part of the getstartedform.php

Code: [ Select ]
<?php

there you see that the getstartedform.php performs a check on itself then submits.

That code worked for me in IE.

Is it getting through the whole function? I was thinking that maybe if you are referencing an invalid form object the function could be dying before it reaches the radio button validation.

For example, if "workhometel" is mispelled or doesn't exist in the form, you may not be getting to the radio button validation.

Also, your code doesn't work for me in Netscape (v7.1). You should be referencing the form as document.mainform, not just mainform.

ok. the first code is a form that submits the info to the 2nd form. the 2nd form actually submits all the info to the database. but because the 1st and 2nd form use the second form as the action, both submit data to the database

instead of having something like:

PHP Code: [ Select ]
 
'{$_POST['my_date']}'
 
 
  1.  
  2. '{$_POST['my_date']}'
  3.  
  4.  


use

PHP Code: [ Select ]
 
$_POST['my_date']
 
 
  1.  
  2. $_POST['my_date']
  3.  
  4.

send.htm is a form that sends the info to the getstartedform.php
send.htm isnt a php file so i cannot have $_post['my_date'] at all. what i want to do is send the info that is filled out in the send.htm to the getstartedform.php

the action is getstartedform.php but on the actual getstartedform.php the action is also getstartedform.php so maybe it cannot be done then

part of this code works and part does not.

this part works:

  3.         return false;
  4.         }


but this part does not:

     alert ( "Please register your type of need" );
     return false;
    }
  1. if ((document.getstartedform.doyouneed[0].checked == false ) && ( document.getstartedform.doyouneed[1].checked == false ) && ( document.getstartedform.doyouneed[2].checked == false ) && ( document.getstartedform.doyouneed[3].checked == false ))
  2.     {
  3.      alert ( "Please register your type of need" );
  4.      return false;
  5.     }


the top one is for a text field. the botton one is for a checkbox (i assume it can work for a radio button or checkbox) or radio button. either way it doesnt work at all. can someone adjust this so they both work?

send -> getstartedform -> getstartedform

getstartedform.php submits to a database right?
so why dont you just do something like this so the form in getstartedform.php has to be filled out along with form (not sure if this works still dont get it sorry dude)

PHP Code: [ Select ]
if($getstartedform == submit && $form == submit) {
 
//database stuff
 
}
  1. if($getstartedform == submit && $form == submit) {
  2.  
  3. //database stuff
  4.  
  5. }

Code: [ Select ]
var i=0;
form = document.getstartedform;
    
for (i=0;i < form.doyouneed.length; i++){
    if (form.doyouneed[i].checked == false){
        alert("Please register your type of need");
        return false;
    }
}
  1. var i=0;
  2. form = document.getstartedform;
  3.     
  4. for (i=0;i < form.doyouneed.length; i++){
  5.     if (form.doyouneed[i].checked == false){
  6.         alert("Please register your type of need");
  7.         return false;
  8.     }
  9. }

***this code just addresses your code that doesn't work***


first of all try this loop it should be more efficient then concatenating everything in a long if. Plus if you don't know loops you might study this...b/c in the future if you have more than 4 options to check this could save you a lot of coding & run time.

Lastly, i'm pretty tired so I can't think right now...but I'm trying to remember if arrays work for check boxes. My guess is yet. But, it could be that arrays don't work for them. I'll think about it some more...and post when my brain has woken up some!
