Form action posting back to tpl_checkout_success

[glennnz]

I

I am trying to customise my tpl_checkout_success_default.php to perform an action if a specific product has been purchased.

So far I have:

<?php

$sql = "SELECT products_id, products_quantity from orders_products where orders_id = " . $zv_orders_id;
$result = $db->Execute($sql);
while(!$result->EOF) {
  if ($result->fields['products_id'] == 192) {
    $no_purchased = $result->fields['products_quantity'];
  }
  $result->MoveNext();
}

if (!isset($_POST['submit']))
    {
    $row_current = 1;
    echo "<p><strong>Here is my Form</strong></p>";
    echo "<form method=\"post\" action=\"" .$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']. "\">";
    while ($row_current <= $no_purchased)
    {
    echo "<table>";
    echo "<tr>";
    echo "<td>Serial number " .$row_current.":  </td>";
    echo "<td><input type='text' name='serial".$row_current."'></td>";
    echo "</tr>";
    echo "</table>";
    $row_current++;
}
echo "<br/>";
echo "<input type='image' src='includes/templates/sd/buttons/english/button_confirm_send.gif' name='submit'>";
echo "</form>";
echo "<br/><br/>";
}
else {
    echo "the answer is '$serial1'";
}
?>

The form displays fine, but when I enter some data into the form and clcik 'submit', it returns to my product page. I think the problem is with the:

echo "<form method=\"post\" action=\"" .$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']. "\">";

line.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

I don't know enough about forms to know whether $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] is the right thing to use in that spot, but you can at least make the code a bit cleaner by using nested single and double quotes instead of \".

    echo '<form method="post" action="' .$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']. '">';

Thanks gjh42, I'll clean that up.

My core problem still exists though, can anyone help please?!?!?!?!

Thanks

I have a solution to all of my questions re this, and have developed a working software license code generator.

At the moment it is just amendments to some of the pages, I've not developed it as a module.

It is for a very specific purpose, so may not be useful to anyone else, but if you're interested drop me a line.
