  1. Chapter - 4 Web Programming Mohammad Al-Samarah

  2. Outline • Overview about Web Page • HTML Form Creation • FORM • Input • INPUT control types • GET & POST • PHP File Upload • PHP Include Files • Headers • Cookie • Sessions

  3. Overview about Web Page • Most people think of a web page as nothing more than a collection of HTML code . This is fine if you happen to be a web designer . • But as a PHP developer we talk about web server that generation of a document starts with an HTTP request ,in which the client requests access to a resource using on method from short list methods. • The client can also send data payload (called request),once request is received , the sever decoded the data that it has received and passes it on to the PHP interpreter.

  4. Overview about Web Page • A web application receives input from the user via form input • Handling form input is the cornerstone of a successful web application – everything else builds on it

  5. Overview about Web Page • The browser interprets the HTML source for a particular page • – Result is a combination of text, images, and entry fields • – Each entry field has a specific name • • User fills in these fields, (with potentially some client-side input checking via JavaScript) and then selects a submission button

  6. Overview about Web Page • The browser reads the input fields, and creates a message that is sent to the server • – A series of name, value pairs

  7. HTML Form Creation • FORM • – Encloses all input fields • – Defines where and how to submit the form data • INPUT • – Defines a specific input field • • TEXTAREA • – Creates a free-form text fill-in box • • SELECT • – Creates a menu • – OPTION defines options within the menu

  8. FORM • FORM attributes • – action • • URL of the resource that receives the filled-in form • • This is the URL of your PHP code that receives the input • – method • • Choices are “get” or “post” – you should choose “post” • – enctype • • MIME type used to send results. By default is application/xww-form-urlencoded • • Would use multipart/form-data if submitting a file (INPUT,type=file) <FORM action=“MyHandler.php” method=“post”>

  9. INPUT • INPUT attributes • – type: the kind of user input control • – name: the name of the control • • This gets passed through to the handling code • • In PHP: $_POST[‘name’] • – value: initial value of the control • – size: initial width of the control • • in pixels, except for text and password controls

  10. INPUT • – maxlength: for text/password, maximum number of characters allowed • – checked: for radio/checkbox, specifies that button is on • – src: for image types, specifies location of image used to decorate input button

  11. INPUT Control Types • • text: single input line • • password: single input line, with input characters obfuscated • • checkbox: creates a check list • • radio: creates a radio button list (checkbox, where inputs are mutually exclusive – only one input at a time) • • button: push button • • hidden: a hidden control. No input field is visible, but value is submitted as part of the form

  12. INPUT Control Types • • Special buttons • – submit: the submit button. Causes input to be sent to the server for processing • – reset: the reset button. Causes all input fields to be reset to their initial values • • File upload • – file: creates a file upload control

  13. Example • <FORM action=“mypage.php" method="post"> • First name: <INPUT type="text“ name="firstname"><BR> • Last name: <INPUT type="text“ name="lastname"><BR> • email: <INPUT type="text“ name="email"><BR> • <INPUT type="radio" name="sex“ value="Male"> Male<BR> • <INPUT type="radio" name="sex“ value="Female"> Female<BR> • <INPUT type="submit" value="Send"> • <INPUT type="reset"> • </FORM>

  14. Example

  15. Receiving form input in PHP • • Upon receiving a form submission, PHP automatically creates and populates two arrays with the form input data • – Either : _POST[] or _GET[], depending on the FORM method type (post or get) • – Additionally, _REQUEST[] is also created • • The array indicies are the names of the form • variables (INPUT name=…) • • The array value is the user entry data

  16. Receiving form input in PHP • The two method allows you to send data as part of the query string ,   The predefined variable is used to collect values in a form ( $_GET , $_POST ).

  17. GET • Information sent from a form with the GET method is visible to everyone (it will be displayed in the browser's address bar) and has limits on the amount of information to send. http://localhost/send.php?Var1=value1&Var2=value2&Var3=value3

  18. GET - Example <html><body> <form action="welcome.php" method="get">Name: <input type="text" name="fname" />Age: <input type="text" name="age" /><input type="submit" /></form> </body></html>

  19. GET - Example welcome.php • <?php • echo “Welcome”. $_GET["fname"] .” <br />”; • echo “You are “.$_GET["age"].” years old!”; • ?>.

  20. GET - Example <html> <body> <h4> Order Form</h4> <form action="process.php" method=“get"> <select name="item"> <option>Paint</option> <option>Brushes</option> <option>Erasers</option> </select> Quantity: <input name="quantity" type="text" /> <input type="submit" /> </form> </body></html>

  21. GET - Example process.php • <html><body> • <?php • $quantity = $_GET['quantity']; • $item = $_GET['item']; • echo "You ordered ". $quantity . " " . $item . ".<br />"; • echo "Thank you for ordering from Tizag Art Supplies!"; • ?> • </body></html>

  22. POST • Information sent from a form with the POST method is invisible to others and has no limits on the amount of information to send. http://www.example.com/send.php

  23. POST - Example <form action="welcome.php" method="post">Name: <input type="text" name="fname" />Age: <input type="text" name="age" /><input type="submit" /></form>

  24. POST - Example welcome.php • <?php • echo “Welcome”. $_POST["fname"] .” <br />”; • echo “You are “.$_POST["age"].” years old!”; • ?>.

  25. REQUEST • The predefined $_REQUEST variable contains the contents of both $_GET, $_POST, and $_COOKIE. • The $_REQUEST variable can be used to collect form data sent with both the GET and POST methods. http://localhost/send.php?Var1=value1&Var2=value2&Var3=value3 http://www.example.com/send.php

  26. REQUEST - Example welcome.php • <?php • echo “Welcome”.  $_REQUEST["fname"] .” <br />”; • echo “You are “.  $_REQUEST["age"].” years old!”; • ?>.

  27. Array Notation • We can create arrays by using array notation.. http://localhost/send.php?user=data&arra[]=data1&arra1[]=data2 • <?php • forech($_GET[‘arra’] as $x) • { • echo $x • } • ?>

  28. Array Notation • We can create arrays by using array notation.. http://www.example.com/send.php?user=data&arra[‘x’]=data1&arra[‘s’]=datax • <?php • echo $_GET[‘arra’][‘x’]; • echo $_GET[‘arra’][‘s’]; • ?>

  29. PHP File Upload • To allow users to upload a file to the server, you first need to provide a form for them to specify which file they want to upload. Once they click the submit button of the form, the action page is called. This is the page that needs to contain the PHP code to process the uploaded file.

  30. PHP File Upload • Before a user can upload a file, you need to provide them with an interface that allows them to select a file and initiate the upload. • The following code is an example of an input form. There are a couple of important things to note about this code: • The action attribute points to a .php file. This is the file that will process the uploaded file. • There is an attribute called enctype, and its value is multipart/form-data. • One of the input fields has type="file".

  31. PHP File Upload • <html> <head> <title>PHP File Upload Example</title> </head><body> • <form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="uploadFile.php"> • <input type="file" name="fileToUpload" /><br /> • <input type="submit" value="Upload File" /> • </form> • </body> </html>

  32. The Action Page • Once the user uploads a file, the file is uploaded into a temporary directory on the server. If you don't move the file it will disappear. Therefore, your action page needs to move the file to another location where it can stay as long as you want it to. • Whenever a file is uploaded, you can find out certain information about the file including its name, type, size, as well as the name of the temporary file on the server. These details are made available to you via a PHP array called $_FILES.

  33. Displaying Details of the Uploaded File • This code simply displays the details of the uploaded file. It doesn't move the file to another location - we'll get to that next. For now, you can use this code in conjunction with the above input form to demonstrate what happens when you upload a file to the server. • Notice the PHP $_FILES array which contains info about the file. Note that we also divide the file size by 1024 in order to convert it into kb. • -(Ignore any carriage returns in this example - each table row should be on one line).

  34. Displaying Details of the Uploaded File • <?php • echo "<table border=\"1\">"; • echo "<tr><td>Client Filename: </td> • <td>" . $_FILES["fileToUpload"]["name"] . "</td></tr>"; • echo "<tr><td>File Type: </td> • <td>" . $_FILES["fileToUpload"]["type"] . "</td></tr>"; • echo "<tr><td>File Size: </td> • <td>" . ($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["size"] / 1024) . " Kb</td></tr>"; • echo "<tr><td>Name of Temp File: </td> • <td>" . $_FILES["fileToUpload"]["tmp_name"] . "</td></tr>"; • echo "</table>"; • ?>

  35. Displaying Details of the Uploaded File • The above code results in something like this:

  36. Moving the Temp File • As mentioned, if we want to keep the file on the server, we need to move it to another location (of our choice). The following code demonstrates how to move the file from the temporary location. move_uploaded_file($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["tmp_name"], "C:/upload/" . $_FILES["fileToUpload"]["name"]);

  37. Checking for Errors • The $_FILES array includes an item for any errors that may result from the upload. This contains an error code. If there are no errors, the value is zero ( 0 ). • You check this value within an "If" statement. If the value is greater than zero, you know an error has occurred and you can present a user friendly message to the user. Otherwise you can processing the file.

  38. Checking for Errors • <?php • if ($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["error"] > 0) • { • echo "Apologies, an error has occurred."; • echo "Error Code: " . $_FILES["fileToUpload"]["error"]; • } • else • { • move_uploaded_file($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["tmp_name"], • "C:/upload/" . $_FILES["fileToUpload"]["name"]); • } • ?>

  39. Restricting File Type/Size • Letting your users upload files to your server can be very risky. If you're not careful, you could get users uploading all sorts of files - perhaps including harmful executables etc. You could also find one day that you've run out of disk space because some users have been uploading enormous files. • You can restrict the file types and file sizes by using an "if" statement. If the file type and size are acceptable, processing can continue, otherwise, display a message to the user.

  40. Restricting File Type/Size • Important Note: This doesn't prevent the temp file from being created. The file needs uploaded to the server before PHP can find out the file size and type. This simply prevents the file from being moved to your "permanent" location - hence the file should disappear and (hopefully) not become a problem. In any case, I recommend that you install good anti-virus software before allowing users to upload files to your server.

  41. Restricting File Type/Size • <?php • if (($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["type"] == "image/gif") • || ($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["type"] == "image/jpeg") • || ($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["type"] == "image/png" ) • && ($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["size"] < 10000)) • { • move_uploaded_file($_FILES["fileToUpload"]["tmp_name"], "C:/upload/" . $_FILES["fileToUpload"]["name"]); • } • else • { • echo "Files must be either JPEG, GIF, or PNG and less than 10,000 kb"; • } • ?>

  42. PHP Include Files • In PHP, you can insert the content of one PHP file into another PHP file before the server executes it. • The include and require statements are used to insert useful codes written in other files, in the flow of execution. • Include and require are identical, except upon failure: • require will produce a fatal error (E_COMPILE_ERROR) and stop the script • include will only produce a warning (E_WARNING) and the script will continue

  43. PHP Include Files • Including files saves a lot of work. This means that you can create a standard header, footer, or menu file for all your web pages. Then, when the header needs to be updated, you can only update the header include file. include 'filename';orrequire 'filename';

  44. PHP Include Files <html> <body> <?php include 'header.php'; ?> <h1>Welcome to my home page!</h1> <p>Some text.</p> </body> </html>

  45. PHP Include Files • Assume we have a standard menu file that should be used on all pages. "menu.php": <?php echo '<a href="/default.php">Home</a><a href="/tutorials.php">Tutorials</a><a href="/references.php">References</a><a href="/examples.php">Examples</a> <a href="/about.php">About Us</a> <a href="/contact.php">Contact Us</a>'; ?>

  46. PHP Include Files • All pages in the Web site should include this menu file. Here is how it can be done: <html><body><div class="leftmenu"><?php include 'menu.php'; ?></div><h1>Welcome to my home page.</h1><p>Some text.</p></body></html>

  47. Header • The header() function sends a raw HTTP header to a client. • It is important to notice that header() must be called before any actual output is sent (In PHP 4 and later, you can use output buffering to solve this problem):

  48. Header • The header() function sends a raw HTTP header to a client. • It is important to notice that header() must be called before any actual output is sent (In PHP 4 and later, you can use output buffering to solve this problem):

  49. Header header(string,replace,http_response_code)

  50. Header <html> <?php // This results in an error. // The output above is before the header() call header('Location: http://www.example.com/'); //this is redirect to this website. ?>
