Hi, 50step, did you try putting it in a database? That would be better and it would display everyone's comment instead of just one person!
Database:
Setup database:
<?php
//////////////////////////////////////////////////
// MYSQL SETTINGS
//////////////////////////////////////////////////
// You can usually find these settings in your hosting control panel
$mysql_host = 'localhost'; // Change this to your MySQL database host if it is different from localhost
$mysql_username = 'my_username'; // Change this to your MySQL database username
$mysql_password = 'my_password'; // Change this to your MySQL database password
$mysql_database = 'my_database'; // Change this to your MySQL database name that you plan on using
$connection = mysql_connect($mysql_host, $mysql_username, $mysql_password); // Connect to database
mysql_select_db($mysql_database); // Select database
//////////////////////////////////////////////////
// CREATE TABLE WITH INFO
//////////////////////////////////////////////////
mysql_query("CREATE TABLE `comments` (
`id` INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY ,
`Title` TEXT NOT NULL ,
`Post` TEXT NOT NULL
) ENGINE = MYISAM "); // Create table
mysql_close($connection); // Kill connection with database to free resources
?>
PHP page:
<?php
//////////////////////////////////////////////////
// MYSQL SETTINGS
//////////////////////////////////////////////////
// You can usually find these settings in your hosting control panel
$mysql_host = 'localhost'; // Change this to your MySQL database host if it is different from localhost
$mysql_username = 'my_username'; // Change this to your MySQL database username
$mysql_password = 'my_password'; // Change this to your MySQL database password
$mysql_database = 'my_database'; // Change this to your MySQL database name that you plan on using
$connection = mysql_connect($mysql_host, $mysql_username, $mysql_password); // Connect to database
mysql_select_db($mysql_database); // Select database
$body = "These posts were sent via the website\n\n";
foreach($_GET as $field => $value) {
$body .= sprintf("%s = %s\n", $field, $value);
}
echo $body;
mysql_query("INSERT INTO comments (Title, Post) VALUES ('".mysql_escape_string($_GET['Title'])."', '".mysql_escape_string($_GET['Body'])."')"); // Put comment into database
?>
HTML page (this must be saved as a PHP document if it is not):
<html>
<head>
<title>HTML Talk</title>
</head>
<body>
Previous comments:<br /><br />
<?php
//////////////////////////////////////////////////
// MYSQL SETTINGS
//////////////////////////////////////////////////
// You can usually find these settings in your hosting control panel
$mysql_host = 'localhost'; // Change this to your MySQL database host if it is different from localhost
$mysql_username = 'my_username'; // Change this to your MySQL database username
$mysql_password = 'my_password'; // Change this to your MySQL database password
$mysql_database = 'my_database'; // Change this to your MySQL database name that you plan on using
$connection = mysql_connect($mysql_host, $mysql_username, $mysql_password); // Connect to database
mysql_select_db($mysql_database); // Select database
$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM comments");
while ($line = mysql_fetch_assoc($query)) {
echo "Title: ".$line['Title']."<br />";
echo "Post: ".$line['Post']."<br /><br />";
}
?>
<center><form style="background-color:whitesmoke" action="forum_comments.php" method="GET">
<table style="background-color:#eeeeee">
<tr>
<td>Title:</td>
<td><input type="text" name="Title" size="30"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Your post:</td>
<td><textarea rows="4" cols="50" name="Post"></textarea></td>
</tr>
</table>
<input type="submit" value="Post">
</form>
</body>
</html>
Hope this helps, Matthew.
