Web Form Data

[mikntwd]

Hi. I'm running this UniformServer for first time, ever.

I have a web site which I would like to configure this UniformServer to collect the data from the forms at http://raider.grcc.edu/~keithwillson/final/quote.html

 

How do I configure this to do so?

 

thanks!

I am not sure if I understand the problem!

Looks like you are trying to intercept data from another site!

 

Perhaps a little more detail would be useful and other members could help.

 

All the best

Since my original post, I've moved the site (forms) in question to:

http://www.sparklinginterior.com/quote.html

 

I'd like to incorporate PHP to receive people's inquiry. There, they have to complete the form and submit.

This is where I'd like to receive their information and I need help to incorporate that, a database.

 

I've never done this before and will be using mySQL.

 

Thanks!

To get you started you require a page to process your form data.

Create a new page named test.php this should be in the same location as quote.html

 

Edit quote.html and locate this line:

You currently have a blank action. This should point to the page that will do the processing. Hence change the line to:

 

Currently you have a large number of form tags I assume you only want to submit a single form hence remove all form tags below the above.

 

Keep the last form tag as shown below

 

Your form-processing page will have the following format:

<?php

if (isset($_POST['first_name'])){
 $first_name = $_POST['first_name'];
 // Validate
 print $first_name;
}
else{
 // what to do if field is not set
}

// Similar for other inputs
// If no code injection save to MySQL
// Send something back to user
?>

Like I said something to get you started.

 

All the best
