Hi friends

I'm trying to create a new user function so users can enter data and become a member of my site but it won't work. I have finished coding all the javascript and PHP script validation and sending to server code but I don't know how to join them like this:

'User submits form' --> 'javascript validates form' --> 'PHP validates and sends form values to database'


All I need to know is how to connect the different functions. How would I do this?

Thanks.

you need a create a php file put javascript methods and logics inside the head tag or use an external .js file. Then When javascript validation is done, you pass the values to php page using GET/POST method and retrieve in PHP using $_GET/$_POST methods. Then filter using your PHP codes and finally insert them into the database. I think this is what you wanted to know?

Id look into Ajax if i was you.

You could so summat like this:

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
         <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
          function senddata() {

          var name = document.getElementById('username');
          $('#confirmation_div ').load("usersubmit.php?username=" + name);

          }
          //-->
</script>

Call senddata from your JS validation and put the users data in usersubmit.php?blaa=blaa&moo=moo etc.

Then
in usersubmit.php

do your stuff.

And whatever usersubmit returns it will then populate your div named confirmation_div with it..

For instance, In confirmation_div you could have your registration form.

Once the php script is called and all goes well you could

Echo "Welcome your now registered";

and this will replace the form with the above message ( all without a page reload or anything )


Hope this helps.
