Question

I am using a code to be put as a header:

$fullurl=$_SERVER['PATH_INFO'];
    echo '
      <form action="'. $fullurl .'" method="POST">
      <table width="1000" border="1" cellpadding="10" id="navigationBar">
          <tr>
            <td> <a href="/PoliticalForum/Registration.php">Register</a></td>
            <td> <a href="/PoliticalForum/controlPanel.php">Control Panel</a></td>
            <td> <a href="/PoliticalForum/checkEmail.php">Donate</a> </td>
            <td align="right">name:<input name="name" type="text" /></td>
            <td>password:<input name="pass" type="text" /> <input name="login" type="submit" value="Login" /> </td>
          </tr>
       </table>
           </form>
       ';

I include the header across page files with the require once. What I want is that the fullurl variable to obtain the full url of the page it is “required_once” on, and when I click submit, I want it to redirect to the page the header is on.. I added the url onto the action of the form..

But what I get is this:

Undefined index: PATH_INFO

I tried to use those instead:

explode('/', substr(parse_url($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], PHP_URL_PATH),1));

$_ENV['PATH_INFO'];

But they didnt work too 🙁

Answer 1

  <form action="" method="POST">

that’s all

also, there is no point in echoing raw HTML
use this code instead of yours

?>
  <form action="" method="POST">
  <table width="1000" border="1" cellpadding="10" id="navigationBar">
      <tr>
        <td> <a href="/PoliticalForum/Registration.php">Register</a></td>
        <td> <a href="/PoliticalForum/controlPanel.php">Control Panel</a></td>
        <td> <a href="/PoliticalForum/checkEmail.php">Donate</a> </td>
        <td align="right">name:<input name="name" type="text" /></td>
        <td>password:<input name="pass" type="text" /> <input name="login" type="submit" value="Login" /> </td>
      </tr>
   </table>
       </form>
