Hi,
This probably has an extremely stupid answer, but I'm just beginning to learn PHP in an attempt to have a working registration program for my website. I have made the HTML and PHP the way that several tutorials online have showed me, and I want to make it so that when you register under a username, password, etc, that data goes into my MySQL database so that it can remember you the next time you log in.
The problem is, when I run the HTML and it calls the PHP, I get an error in line 39, char 2, which doesn't even exist in my PHP file. Code 0, 'object expected'. I wish they could try to be a little more specific as to what went wrong...
If it helps, here's my HTML code -
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
-
-
<html>
-
<head>
-
<title>Register for an account on xxxx!</title>
-
</head>
-
<body>
-
<form action="http://subdomain.mywebsite.com/submitinfo.php">
-
Username:
-
-
<input type="text" name="Username">
-
<br />
-
Full Name:
-
-
<input type="text" name="Name">
-
<br />
-
Password:
-
-
<input type="password" name="Password">
-
<br />
-
Confirm Password:
-
<input type="password" name="Confirm Password">
-
<br />
-
E-mail:
-
-
<input type="text" name="E-mail">
-
<br />
-
Confirm E-mail:
-
<input type="text" name="Confirm E-mail">
-
<br />
-
Gender:<br />
-
<input type="radio" name="Gender"> Male<br />
-
<input type="radio" name="Gender"> Female<br />
-
<input type="submit" name="Submit">
-
</form>
-
</body>
-
</html>
-
And the PHP code is just down to its bare bones and not transmitting everything yet, but I wanted to see if it would work first to transmit data to my database: -
<?php
-
$link = mysql_connect ("xx.x.xxx.xxx", "myusername", "mypassword")
-
or die('Could not connect ' . mysql_error());
-
mysql_select_db ("myusername", $link) or die('Could not select database.');
-
$Username = $_POST['Username'];
-
$Password = $_POST['Password'];
-
$Name = $_POST['Name'];
-
$Email = $_POST['E-mail'];
-
-
$sql="INSERT INTO Usernames and Passwords (Username, Password, E-mail, Name) VALUES ($Username,$Password,$Email,$Name)";
-
if (!mysql_query($sql,$link))
-
{
-
die('Error: Couldn''t insert the data.' . mysql_error());
-
}
-
mysql_close($link);
-
?>
-
Thanks for helping!

can't make any sense of the error message either, maybe copy and post the error message directly from the browser...
nevertheless, you are trying to access a variable you don't have. the error lies within the HTML code. in the <form> tag you don't specify the transfer method (get or post) which then defaults to "get". thus you have no $_POST data.
furthermore, your SQL looks weird. if I read the manual right, you have to specify one table, not sure if "Usernames and Passwords" conforms to the SQL naming scheme here.
I had made a table called Usernames and Passwords for user data earlier on my database. I inserted some data from the manager, and it didn't seem to care.
When I changed my method to "post" in my HTML, it came back with the exact same error:
Line: 39
Char: 2
Error: Object expected
Code: 0
URL: <Url removed - just lead to an advertising page>
to me it looks more like a javascript error on IE....
Then is there any way I can fix it so that it works with my browser?
I think so, but without knowing the javascript I cannot tell. maybe it helps if you disable javascript.
It's just a bit odd. I've never had to do that on a registration before.
Heya, gladi8r.
You've probably got some spyware or malware on your computer that's causing the JS error. Try running a spyware/malware removal tool and seeing if the problem goes away.
Alternatively, try accessing the PHP script on a different computer.

Hey, I get it now... IE's poor JavaScript support is a security mechanism :]
You could try installing Firefox and viewing the page in that.
If the error still shows up, Firefox should give you a better idea as to why and where it is happening.
If it doesn't, pbmods is probably right (which he usually is) and you have a spyware/malware/virus problem going on.
