HTML Question...

Hey Fellow Warrios - I need some HTML help!
I've tried Google and had a tough time...

Heres the situation...

I need information to be input on one page, and carried to the next.

For example,

PAGE 1
User inputs their name and email into user forms

PAGE 2
That information appears on the forms

Is it as simple as using Aweber tags to recall the info?? I was hoping for a more efficient way...

Regardless, I'm thankful for any help!

  • Hi Ryan. Can you give a few more details about what you are attempting? For instance are you trying to take data that was submitted in an AWeber form on page 1 and send it to an HTML form on page 2, or are you trying to take data from a standard html form on page 1 and send to page 2 for integration into either another html form or to finish the process on AWeber.

    Also, are you managing your own website/server, and are you hand coding the pages or using something like WordPress?

    It all makes a difference. And as I'm sure you are aware, regarding web forms, there are numerous ways to 'skin a cat' (figuratively speaking of course).

    Let me know, and I'll try to give you some pointers.

  • Fullsails,

    Thank you! Not only are there numerous ways to skin a cat, but numerous cats to skin! Html is a beast, but I figure that I should become more proficient instead of wasting valueable time depending on freelancers...

    This particular task is being coded in html...No use of Wordpress...
    Also, I'm not managing my own server I do have an SSL cert and dedicated IP, but thats it...

    The best example would be to look at most Biz Opp products, such as this one

    Code:
     https://www.exclusivecashsecrets.com/c/BDY454LK/Default.aspx?itm=RDCA22&s1=43443&s2=794&s3=116971&clickid=09_10299406_a2d9e480-8e40-4fa4-aef9-529133652732&vn=mac138288
    Which transfers the data to this page

    Code:
    https://www.exclusivecashsecrets.com/c/BDY454LK/Page2.aspx
    So the page is carrying the user data to the next page where the CC submit exists...
  • Any form method will do that... Cookies will also do that... And PHP coding can take advantage of both...
  • Although, try to stay away from cookies.
    You really don't want to be putting someones private info in a cookie, even if it is just a name and email. Cookies are just not to be trusted.

    • I would definitely recommend learning a little PHP. Ad it's surprising how little you do need to learn. You can simply add php code into your standard html page (change the extension from .html to .php) by wrapping your php code with <?php at the start and ?> at the end (see example below)
      It's very easy to pass variables across pages with PHP and there are free PHP scripts for just about anything you can think from simple operations to complete applications


      example


      To pass data without displaying in the URL
      Let's say this is your form field code on "form.php"



      <?php
      <form action="thankyou.php" method="post">
      <input type="text" size="25" name="name
      <input type="text" size="25" name="email"
      /form>
      ?>


      These two input boxes allow users to enter information as a standard html form.


      <?php
      # GRAB THE VARIABLES FROM THE FORM
      $name = $_POST['name'];
      $email = $_POST['email'];
      ?>
      The above code is in "thankyou.php" and grabs the variables from the previous form @ "form.php"
