PHP Form Validation Tutorials

Expand Post »

I need to create a form validation system where the user will be returned to the form with the valid data still in the form and the bad data barked for correction.

Can anyone point me to a good tutorial for that sort of thing?

Re: PHP Form Validation Tutorials

Here's one way to do it:

PHP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
<?php
if($_POST) {
 
   // create short variable names
   $name = htmlentities(trim($_POST['name']));
   $email = htmlentities(trim($_POST['email']));
 
   // process form
} else {
 
   // create short variable names
   // they should have the same names as the ones created above
   $name = NULL;
   $email = NULL;
}
 
// begin page 
?>
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<form ...>
   <input type="text" name="name" id="name" value="<?=$name?>" />
   <input type="text" name="name" id="name" value="<?=$email?>" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
<?php
if($_POST) {

   // create short variable names
   $name = htmlentities(trim($_POST['name']));
   $email = htmlentities(trim($_POST['email']));

   // process form
} else {

   // create short variable names
   // they should have the same names as the ones created above
   $name = NULL;
   $email = NULL;
}

// begin page 
?>
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<form ...>
   <input type="text" name="name" id="name" value="<?=$name?>" />
   <input type="text" name="name" id="name" value="<?=$email?>" />
</form>
</body>
</html>

Hope that helps!

Re: PHP Form Validation Tutorials

Yes, but there are plenty of PHP form validation tutorials out there, plus you already offered him your code. I was simply providing a method to solve his request that "the user will be returned to the form with the valid data still in the form."

It looks like your form has just what I'm looking for.

Would be very grateful if you'd post the code.

Cheers.
