redirecting to the same page

[emumcard]

Hi,

I've got a subscription form and I want to make it so once someone hits submit, they are redirected to the same page. I thought maybe there was some code that could grab the URL of the current page and insert it into the redirect value. Here is the code (i believe it's the fifth line):

<center><form method="post" action="" target="_new"> 
<input type="hidden" name="meta_web_form_id" value=""> 
<input type="hidden" name="meta_split_id" value=""> 
<input type="hidden" name="unit" value=""> 
<input type="hidden" name="redirect" value=""> 
<input type="hidden" name="meta_redirect_onlist" value=""> 
<input type="hidden" name="meta_adtracking" value=""> 
<input type="hidden" name="meta_message" value="1"> 
<input type="hidden" name="meta_required" value="from"> 
<input type="hidden" name="meta_forward_vars" value="0"> 
<table> <tr><td colspan=2><center></center></td></tr> <tr><td>Email:</td><td><input type="text" name="from" value="" size="20"></td></tr> <tr><td>Name:</td><td><input type="text" name="name" value="" size="20"></td></tr>     <tr><td colspan=2><center></center></td></tr> <tr><td align="center" colspan="2"><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit"></td></tr> </table> </form>  </center>

How would you go about doing this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

This won't be possible with HTML. You can either use a server-side language to set the redirect field value during page load or JavaScript to set it when the submit button is clicked.

Alrite, I tried it in php. I'm really not too familiar with php and html, so based on some research I did, this is what I have so far:

<?
$url = $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'];
$page = $_SERVER['php_SELF'];
?> 
 
<center><form method="post" action="" target="_new">
<input type="hidden" name="meta_web_form_id" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="meta_split_id" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="unit" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="redirect" value= <?php echo "http://".$url.$page; ?>>
<input type="hidden" name="meta_redirect_onlist" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="meta_adtracking" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="meta_message" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="meta_required" value="from">
<input type="hidden" name="meta_forward_vars" value="0">
 

It's not working, but am I onto something? Again, thanks for any help.

emumcard,

When posting code sample here at Bytes you are expected to use the tags. Please be sure to use them in the future. For more information on the use of code tags please read the Posting Guidelines "How to ask a question".

Since what you are wishing to do can not be achieved by HTML/CSS and you are trying with PHP I am moving this thread to the PHP Forum for further assistance.

I believe

echo "http://" . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
 

will do what you want.

Thanks Markus, how do I format it though? Because when I include the php tags, it doesn't work.
