Form values in 'Script called on form process' 2 years, 2 months ago #9998

Gosling Cools OFFLINE Fresh Boarder Posts: 2	How can I use the form values in my custom php? I put some php code under 'Script called on form process' but I can't retrieve the form values. How can I retrieve for example the value of a field called email_address and use this value in my custom php code? Regards, Gosling Cools

Alexandru Plapana NOW ONLINE Moderator Posts: 1082	Hello, You can simply use the following syntax: $_POST['form']['email_address'] You can view the exact structure of the $_POST variable by using something like this (in the Scripts called on form process area): print_r($_POST);die();

I've created a form with two checkbox groups. That returns two delimited lists of ticked entries, which I want to cat together into a single list, and then parse into an array and write back to the database.

I've written something like this in the 'Script called on form process' area:

$allmembers= $_POST['form']['memberlist 1'] ."|". $_POST['form']['memberlist 2'];
$member = explode("|",$allmembers);
$att=1;

I want to write $member[i] and $att to a table, but they're not listed in the SQL mapping area.

So I've tried adding this to the code:

for($i=0; $i<count($member);$i++)
{
$db=& JFactory::getDBO();
$db->setQuery("INSERT INTO attendance SET id = '".$member[$i]."', IdEvent = '".$_POST['form']['Event']."', AttStatus = '".$att."'");
}

I can't tell where this is failing, or whether there's more than one thing wrong with it. Is my code wrong, or am I trying to put it in the wrong place? Or both?
