Form not working...

[Seaholme]

Hey there,

 

Basically I'm having some difficulty getting this form to work:

 

<form action=getitem.php method=post name=form2><input type=hidden name=itemid value='1'>
<input type=image src=items/ricketyoldsledge.png name=free class=img></form>

 

It'll work if it's at the top of the code for the page I want it on, however I want it to be in a later position (I've included the PHP for the whole page below, so hopefully you can see what I mean).

 

The error I get is that the form appears to send, only instead of sending me to getitem.php it just goes back to sledmakers.php.

 

 

<?php

include('connect.php');

include('header.php');
include('loggedin.php');

echo 'blah blah"';

// Check profession
      $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM players
              WHERE id=".$_SESSION['id']) or die(mysql_error()); 

while($row = mysql_fetch_array( $result )) {
$profession = $row['profession'];
$level = $row['level'];}


// if they're unemployed still

if($profession == 'Unemployed'){ 

	echo '<br><br><form action=sledmakers.php?talk=yes method=post name=form1>
<input type=submit name=submit value="Talk to the man?"><bR><Br>';

	 }

// if they're a Sledmaker

elseif($profession == 'Sledmaker'){
	echo 'Sledmaker';}

// if they're not a Sledmaker

else{

	echo 'What? You\'re not a Sledmaker! Go away.';}

	$talk = $_GET['talk'];

// if they're unemployed and pressed to speak with her

if($talk == 'yes')
{ echo 'blahblah';

echo 'You look in the corner and find what you\'re looking for...<bR><br>';
?>

<form action=getitem.php method=post name=form2><input type=hidden name=itemid value='1'><input type=image src=items/ricketyoldsledge.png name=free class=img></form>

<br><br><form action=sledmakers.php method=post name=form3>
<input type=submit name=submit2 value="Become the Master Sledmakers's Apprentice?"><bR><Br>

<?php

} else{ echo '';}

if(isset($_POST['submit2'])){
	echo 'You are now an Apprentice Sledmaker!';

	}

include('footer.php');
?>

 

Can anybody help me out? :/

If you need more info, please just ask!

You have invalid HTML in two places (lines 24 and 52). You have left of the closing form tag (</form>). This may be why your forms are not behaving as you are expecting them to.

Whyyy do the simple things hide from me?! You wouldn't believe how long I've spent trying to figure it out when the answer should've smacked me in the face. Ach!

 

Thanks so so much!
