The title of your thread doesn't say very much about its content. Anyway, this snippet will do it[php]<?php
if (isset($_POST['number'])) {
header('Locatio n: http://www.towncenter. com/'.stripslashes( $_POST['number']));
exit;
}
else {
echo '<form method="post" action="'.$_SER VER['PHP_SELF'].'" >';
echo 'Enter value <input type="text" size="3" name="number" />';
echo ' <input type="submit" value="Submit value" />';
echo '</form>';
}
?>[/php]

You have translated the code I sent you using htmlentities so it won't work. This is a line of code I sent you[php] echo 'Enter value <input type="text" size="3" name="number" />';[/php]
This is what is shown in the browser[php]Enter valu e <inpu t type=&qu ot;text"&n bsp;size=" 3" na me="number " />[/php]
You have translated that code into an html tag free string. How did you put that code snippet in your own script? Show the code where you put it.

I have no idea what you did to the code snippet I sent you. Look at the first HTML part of the script. All PHP code is translated there into some sort of pseudo HTML code whereby the html tags are translated into char representations of the tags, like someone has done an htmlentities command on it before enclosing it into deprecated <font> and <color> tags.

I would say that you have imported it into some sort of IDE. Anyway, that program screwed it really up!

The snippet I send you is still the one you have to use, but do not translate it into something that is not code at alll. Here it is again[php]<?php
if (isset($_POST['number'])) {
header('Locatio n: http://www.towncenter. com/'.stripslashes( $_POST['number']));
exit;
}
else {
echo '<form method="post" action="'.$_SER VER['PHP_SELF'].'" >';
echo 'Enter value <input type="text" size="3" name="number" />';
echo ' <input type="submit" value="Submit value" />';
echo '</form>';
}

From reading the first post and joing late it almost looks like you want to name those videos something more descriptive then provide a drop down box with links to different videos. Unless I am missing something.

I thought of that for "FEATURED VIDEOS" but I have 500 or so on the system at any one time. They have tour ID's assigned that are on sign riders outside the properties. So they people need to have a box to input the "TourID" I do appreciate the feed back and suggestions. This stuff isn't easy for me and the help really means a lot.

Sincerely,

John

runat="server"....a simple html textbox or a webform server textbox...that is the question.

Hi Again,

Well I did it. I created a file and all I have in it is the code that you gave me. It is in the same spot http://www.towncenter. com/tourid.php and it gives a blank page... Could this be my server not executing the script correctly?

Looking for simple code analysis tool

Hello all, I'm looking for a very simple code analysis tool. I have a large codebase to analyze, and all I really need to do is to find all uses of all methods in a few interfaces. Many tools (e.g. Resharper) obviously do this internally, but I can't seem to find any that expose this simple functionality. Command line would be fine -- in fact I'd prefer that but its not necessary.
