Hello I have some input but one of them is disabled ( yes and i need it for my time sheet )but how do I send it autocomplete.php to insert.php I've this error Undefined index: client1 in C:\wamp\www\testlp\insert.php on line 30
Here my code autocomplete.php
<form action = 'insert.php' method="post" >
<input type="text" name="client1" class = "client" size="12" id ="client1" disabled />
</form>
here my code insert.php
session_start();
$date = $_POST['data'] ;
$client1 = $_POST['client1'] ;
echo($client1);
echo($date);
EDIT I tried this :
<input type="text" name="client1" class = "client" size="12" id ="client1"readonly />
here the error : Notice: Undefined index: client1 in C:\wamp\www\testlp\insert.php on line 12
use the attribute readonly
instead of disabled
.
you get an error because an disabled element is not sent when the form is submitted and thus is not present in $_POST
(there simply is no $_POST['client1']
in your case)
edit edited: the examples were not complete - as the accepted answer states, the name
attribute must be present, too
<input type="text" name="client1" class = "client" size="12" id ="client1" value="something" readonly />
or
<input type="text" name="client1" class = "client" size="12" id ="client1" value="something" readonly="readonly" />
if you want to have a more xml-like syntax.
