Submit html Form to an embedded php Script

Help / Discuss
#1

Hello,

is it somehow possible to submit a html Form to an embedded php Script?

For example I have this html form:

{{html}}
 
  <form action="" id="test" method="post">
    <div>
      test1: <input type="text" name="test1" value="Enter your question here" class="withTip" size="100"/><br>
	  test2: <input type="text" name="test2" value="Enter your question here" class="withTip" size="100"/><br>
      <span class="buttonwrapper"><input type="submit" value="Create Test" class="button"/></span>
    </div>
  </form>
{{/html}}

And I would like to have a php Script executed after sending the Submit button, I also need to access the form elements inside the php Script.

Thanks in advance!
Best Regards
Manuel

Hello!

This seems to work, but it is only possible to access the Get / Post Data via Python?

I’ve tried that with PHP, but nothing useful is displayed:

{{php}}
<?php 
   print_r($_POST); 
   print_r($_GET);
   print_r(file_get_contents('php://input'));
?>
{{/php}}

Sorry switched to wrong language …

{{php}}
<?php
   if ($request->get("test1") != NULL) { echo "\nParameter test1: ",   $request->get("test1") };
   if ($request->get("test2") != NULL) { echo "\nParameter test2: ",   $request->get("test2") };
  
  // if a parameter is given multiple you can get an array
  
    if ($request->get("test1") != NULL)  { echo "\nParameter test1: ",  $request->getParameterValues("test1")[0] };
    if ($request->get("test2") != NULL)  { echo "\nParameter test2: ",  $request->getParameterValues("test2")[0] };

  // other stuff
  
    echo "\nRemote Addr: ",      $request->getRemoteAddr();
    echo "\nRemote host: ",      $request->getRemoteHost();
?>
{{/php}}

An additional notice:

XWiki allows several script languages, e.g. {{velocity}} {{groovy}} {{php}} {{python}}

You can used different languages in the same document and they SHARE THE NAMESPACE (binding) !

e.g. A variable set in {{velocity}} may be used later in {{groovy}} with its values.

e.g The $request function is one many XWiki standard objects with a set of an additional methods.
