pmwww | | need some help? (11th Jan 10 at 7:21am UTC) | | I need some help with a few things, firstly I need a submition form like The Web Tower.com has, and second I need a code that has the "waiting for approval" and shows the submitted form for others to see. I'm trying to make an affiliate type of site. like The web tower is, but mine will just be a directory, which is. http://thedirctory.2x.nu
I also need some help with API, but maybe i should post in the API board?  | |

if($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST'){
if(!isset($_POST['username']) || $_POST['username'] == '')
$error[] = 'Username is required';
if(!isset($_POST['email']) || $_POST['email'] == '')

header("location: ./confirm.html");
}else
echo "-" . implode("<br />-", $error);
}
?>
<form action = 'dm_email.php' method = 'post'>
Username: <input name = 'username' /><br />
Email Address: <input name = 'email' /><br />
Site URL: <input name = 'site' /><br />
Banner URL: <input name = 'banner' /><br />
Site Category: <input name = 'category' /><br />
<input type = 'submit' value = 'submit' />
</form>
That's the code that you need. Simply modify the coloured bits.
Red = Email Address to send them to.
Blue = Confirmation page (saying it's been submitted etc...)
Green = Name of the file that you save that code as. When I was testing I saved the file as 'dm_email.php' you might save it as 'submit.php'
Questions, post them. | |

You browse to that page, and the form will appear, and then people can fill it in! | |

Because I got this: http://thedirectory.2x.nu/submit.php But I want it on the home page. | |
