If condition for moving to another page

you need to remove the " incoming.php " part.
The variable call_type should hold either the word "incoming" or "outgoing" at this point.

PHP Code:


header("Location: http://localhost/OJT/mae_ann/".$call_type.".php");

I tried the code you suggested:

PHP Code:


<?php

  include ("config.php");   



if (isset($_POST['call_type'])) {   

  // escape the value   

  $call_type = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['call_type']);   

  // query the database 

  $result = mysql_query("SELECT `call_type` FROM `tbl_calltype` WHERE `call_type` = '{$call_type}' ");   

  // if there's one row in the result, then there was a match.   

  if(mysql_num_rows($result) === 1){   

    // send the header()   

//here I got confused because i dont know what location should i put is it incoming.php or outgoing.php, but when I tried this code nothig was happened.  



// at this point, since we've gotten a match from the database,  

// we know that the variable 'call_type' holds a value of either "incoming" or "outgoing", 

// so we use the variable instead of hard-coding the filename. 



    header("Location: http://localhost/OJT/mae_ann/".$call_type.".php");     

  }

  //else{ header("Location: http://localhost/OJT/mae_ann/outgoing.php"); }  

}  

?>

<html>  

<body>  

<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="">  

  <select name="call_type" onchange="return handleEnter(this, event)">  

    <option value="Select Call Type">Select Call Type</option>  

    <option value="Incoming" <?php if($_POST['call_type'] == 'Incoming') echo "selected='selected'"; ?>>Incoming</option>  

    <option value="Outgoing" <?php if($_POST['call_type'] == 'Outgoing') echo "selected='selected'"; ?>>Outgoing</option>  

  </select>  

    <input type="submit" name = "Submit" value="Submit"> 

</form>  

</body>  

</html>

And the output is still it did not go to incoming.php when I choose incoming .
:confused:

Thank you

hmm... where is it going? do you get a 404? do you get anything?

does this work?

PHP Code:


header("Location: http://localhost/OJT/mae_ann/incoming.php");

?
try this

PHP Code:


print call_type;

so we can see if the value is getting passed on correctly.

try this and let me know what it tells you.

PHP Code:


<?php 

include ("config.php");

if(isset($_POST['call_type'])){
    $call_type = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['call_type']);
    $result = mysql_query("SELECT `call_type` FROM `tbl_calltype` WHERE `call_type` = '{$call_type}' ");
    if(!$result){ print 'the query did not execute properly: '.mysql_error().'<br>'; }

// if the line below doesn't work, try commenting it out and using the commented line instead
    if(mysql_num_rows($result) === 1){
//    if(mysql_num_rows($result) > 0){

        header("Location: http://localhost/OJT/mae_ann/".$call_type.".php");
    }else{
        var_dump($call_type);
    }
}else{ print '$_POST[call_type] is not set<br>'; }

?>

When i run this code this is the output:

$_POST[call_type] is not set

And when I choose incoming, Finally I redirected to incoming.php

Thank you

glad it worked! just FYI, the following lines are solely for testing purposes and can/should be commented or removed:

PHP Code:


if(!$result){ print 'the query did not execute properly: '.mysql_error().'<br>'; }

PHP Code:


else{
        var_dump($call_type);
    }

PHP Code:


// if the line below doesn't work, try commenting it out and using the commented line instead 
//    if(mysql_num_rows($result) > 0){

PHP Code:


else{ print '$_POST[call_type] is not set<br>'; }
