PHP code and HTML forms

[pumuklee]

hi

i want to include in my cmsms my php code which was made last year

i want to process some data from a form
if the data is ok-i put the data in the database
if not-i want to echo some error message and to maintain the data in the form inputs
in this way
">

details:
- i made a gcb for the html part
- i made a user defined tag for php part

my question:
1. how can i make to submit the page in the same page where the form is?
2. how can i maintain the data in the form inputs if it was an error?
    - i must use the smarty assign or it is another possibility?
3. how can i use in my php part something like this-require_once('functions.php') where function.php is a file with my functions
    - where i must upload this function.php

thanks

May be the best way to do it is to contribute your code to the FormBuilder and FormBrowser modules.

GCB for HTML and UDT for PHP scripting... sounds ok...
A1. doesn't ' action=' work ?
A2. may be transform your GCB to a UDT which deals with the form inputs if present ?
A3. this is PHP specific and I don't know much about it but I suppose you can do what you want and first try several places.

But... I strongly suggest to use existing modules. CMSms doesn't require any PHP knowledge.
Have fun
