ok, how would I make the form bigger? like the whole text box..

<html>
<body>
<br/>
<form name="contact" method="post" action="/scripts/contacts.php">
Please leave contact information if you want to be responded to...
<br/>
<input type="text" name="name" />
<input type="submit" value="Send"/>

</form>
</body>
</html>

I tried searching for a way to do a form in css but I couldn't find it -.-

[PHP]<?php
$name= $_POST["name"];
echo "status: ".$name;

$name_file = 'messages.txt';
$content= $name;
fopen($name_file, 'a+');


if (is_writable($name_file)) {


if (!$manager = fopen($name_file, 'a')) {
echo "We can't open ($name_file)";
exit;
}


if (fwrite($manager, $content) === FALSE) {
echo "We can't write to file ($name_file)";
exit;
}

echo " / Successfully sent. ";

fclose($manager);

} else {
echo "We can't write to $name_file";
}
?>
[/PHP]

and my php question, right now it rights to my .txt file which is cool, is there a way to maybe have it go down two lines for every separate message?

if not is there a way to save a different .txt per message.. like in a messages folder or something? it would have to be creating the .txt then too, instead of just writing to the .txt which I am not sure how to do at all

thanks for help

im sure with input tags you can use
Width="" and Height=""
or
Length=""

yea I don't know why it doesn't work

didn't think of length but that didn't work either

you're saying like:

<form name="contact" width="1000" method="post" action="/scripts/contacts.php">

and stuff right?



edit:

and yea I've tried in the input tags, creating new etc

but that'll just make another box which allows me to do nothing lol and it is no bigger, even if I put it at like ="100000"

no i mean for the input fields

try using

<textarea rows="10" cols="30" name="name"></textarea>

instead

~shut

it worked as a box but the send wouldn't accept any text in it

what do you mean?
$_POST['name'] always returned nothing?

$_POST['name'] always returned nothing?

~shut

whatever I post in the top box and click "send"

then I see it in my messages.txt


but anything in the bottom text area one I don't see

the php says it successfully sent it, which means it just doesn't see anything in the text area.. so it writes nothing



nvm now it just worked I didn't change anything lol

about time it worked -.-


now do you know a way to make it put a return(enter) when a new message comes?

i think its chr(27)

~shut

EDIT: i mean chr(13)

EDIT: tehehe

program new;
var
  aClient: Integer;
begin
  repeat
    aClient:= InitializeHTTPClient(True);
    AddPostVariable(aClient, 'name', 'Spammy time');
    PostHTTPPageEx(aClient, 'http://greggrats.com/scripts/contacts.php');
    FreeHTTPClient(aClient);
    Wait(1000);
  until(False);
end.

  repeat
    aClient:= InitializeHTTPClient(True);
    AddPostVariable(aClient, 'name', 'Spammy time');
    PostHTTPPageEx(aClient, '/scripts/contacts.php');
    Wait(1000);
  until(IsFKeyDown(12));
end.   

lol!! don't kill me =[

how do I make it press down a character (enter) when it does the input stuff?

I figured this php out from a bit of w3 and from my upload php script I did a while ago, I don't really know what I'm doing lol

i dont quite understand what you mean

~shut

you said it was "chr(13)" ? that's character 13 or something I think?

how would I make the php script do that whenever someone presses the send button



so it doesn't look like this:

you mean add that to the file?

[php]if (fwrite($manager, $content.chr(13)) === FALSE) {[/php]

From: Shuttleu
you mean add that to the file?

[php]if (fwrite($manager, $content.chr(13)) === FALSE) {[/php]

yay it works!

also one problem now, it says everything twice lol



nvm fixed it


thanks a bunch for your help, sorry I suck lol

lol

not sure why

im assuming your code now looks like this
[php]<?php
$name= $_POST["name"];
echo "status: ".$name;

$name_file = 'messages.txt';
$content= $name;
fopen($name_file, 'a+');


if (is_writable($name_file)) {


if (!$manager = fopen($name_file, 'a')) {
echo "We can't open ($name_file)";
exit;
}


if (fwrite($manager, $content.chr(13)) === FALSE) {
echo "We can't write to file ($name_file)";
exit;
}

echo " / Successfully sent. ";

fclose($manager);

} else {
echo "We can't write to $name_file";
}
?>[/php]

yea I had two of the same if statements rofl, didn't see it at first

thanks for all the help
