Okay, so I'm not all that good with PHP and was wondering how I'd get an action from a form.

For example, you can upload a MP4, PNG or a JPEG file.

so when they file uploads, I want to add "?action=success" to the url so the website knows to display the $success message.

But I'm not all that good with it, could someone help me out?

Form code:

PHP код:

<div class="container">
                <center>
                <h3>Upload your file:</h3>
                <form action="home.php?action=" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
                    <input type="file" name="file" />
                    <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Upload">
                </form>
                </center>
            </div> 


PHP Code:

PHP код:

if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
    $name = $_FILES['file']['name'];
    $temp = $_FILES['file']['tmp_name'];
    $type = $_FILES['file']['type'];
    $size = $_FILES['file']['size'];
    $url = "localhost/video%20host/uploaded/$name";
    $error = "<div class='alert alert-danger'>There was an error uploading your file. Supported files are: MP4 - Jpeg - PNG</div>";
    $success = "<div class='alert alert-success'>File uploaded successfully. <br />Link:<br/>$url</div>";
    
    if(($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "video/mp4") || ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/jpeg") || ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/jpg") || ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/png"))
    {
        move_uploaded_file($temp,"uploaded/".$name);
        mysql_query("INSERT INTO `videos` VALUE('', '$name', $url')");
        
    }
}

Yes.. but how do I set it when using a form-.-

[NewerthRoleplay]

So you want to redirect the user to the same page but with ?action=success ?

[Zeppo]

Yup.

EDIT: Ok, I know how to use $_GET['action'] when using it in <a> tags for example.
But not when using a form.

Use input type hidden.

Код HTML:

<input type="hidden" name="action" value="foo">

Yes I know. But I've fixed it now, don't worry.

That's what everyone says, and it only makes me worry more.

At the end of your php code put:

PHP код:

header('Location: /?action=success'); 


The header location redirects the browser to that URL.

<form method="get"></form>
