I currently have an HTML file, with a form in it, that when submitted POSTs the form & calls a simple short PHP file that calls a function within another PHP file using the POSTed variables as parameters. The files are both below. What I am wondering is whether I can somehow skip the middleman PHP file, and simply call the function from my HTML file. Ideally, this would set the call to the function:
insert_PE(new PE($_POST[Date],$_POST[Participant],$_POST[Time],$_POST[Result],$_POST[Notes]));
as the form action. Does anyone know how/if this can be achieved?
HTML:
<FORM ID="FORM1" METHOD="POST" AUTOCOMPLETE="off" ACTION = "writeToDL.php">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="Date" STYLE="WIDTH:0px; " MAXLENGTH="8" TITLE="Enter Date" Value="<?php $dt = date('Y-m-d'); echo $dt ?>"/>
<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="Time" STYLE="WIDTH:70px; " MAXLENGTH="7" ONCHANGE="validateTime();" />
<SELECT NAME = "Result">
<OPTION VALUE = OK></OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE = C>C</OPTION>
</SELECT>
<SELECT NAME = "Participant" STYLE = "WIDTH: 187">
<OPTION SELECTED VALUE = "">Select...</OPTION>
<?PHP
$allParticipants = getall_participants();
foreach($allParticipants as &$value) {
$val = $value->get_id();
echo "<OPTION VALUE='",$val,"'>";
echo $value->get_first_name()," ",$value->get_last_name();
echo "</OPTION>";
}
?>
</SELECT>
<TEXTAREA NAME='Notes' COLS='28' ROWS='5'></TEXTAREA>
<INPUT TYPE="image" SRC = "images/submit.png" VALUE="Submit Participant"/>
</FORM>
PHP File:
<?php
include_once('database/PE.php');
insert_PE(new PE($_POST[Date],$_POST[Participant],$_POST[Time],$_POST[Result],$_POST[Notes]));
?>
