Presumably you're already using something like CVS or SubVersion and you
are inquiring about some kind of task management system. I've been using
the Mantis bug tracking system for a while with some customers. We don't
just use it for bugs though, we also use it to request new tasks and
discuss stuff. Your mileage may vary :)

Hi

First question to the list.

I am writing a control panel for a web site and there will be about 20
HTML forms.

Instead of creating 20 PHP files to process the submit data, is there a
way that I can do this with a single PHP file.

Either specify a specific function for each form, or use a case
statement somehow to direct to the function.

Thanks!
Stephen

Yes...

<?php

$handlers = array
(
    'myLoginForm' => 'handler_myLoginForm',
    'myRegistrationForm' => 'handler_myRegistrationForm',
    'myProfileForm' => 'handler_myProfileForm',
    'myDonationForm' => 'handler_myDonationForm',
);

$action = isset( $_POST['formName'] ) ? $_POST['formName'] : null;

if( isset( $handlers[$action] ) )
{
    $handlers[$action]( $_POST );
}

function handler_myLoginForm( $form )
{
    print_r( $form );
}

function handler_myRegistrationForm( $form )
{
    print_r( $form );
}

function handler_myProfileForm( $form )
{
    print_r( $form );
}

function handler_myDonationForm( $form )
{
    print_r( $form );
}

?>

Alternatively you can use the following style:

<?php

$action = isset( $_POST['formName'] ) ? $_POST['formName'] : null;

if( $action && function_exists( ($handler = 'handler_'.$action) ) )
{
    $handler( $_POST );
}

if( isset( $handlers[$action] ) )
{
    $handlers[$action]( $_POST );
}

function handler_myLoginForm( $form )
{
    print_r( $form );
}

function handler_myRegistrationForm( $form )
{
    print_r( $form );
}

function handler_myProfileForm( $form )
{
    print_r( $form );
}

function handler_myDonationForm( $form )
{
    print_r( $form );
}

?>

Cheers,
Rob.

Stephen:

Not a problem, I use one php script to handle many forms using a case
statement. You can use sessions or pass a POST/GET variable to itself
to know which form to present.

Get "Sams, Teach yourself Regular Expressions" It's a great little, simple book.

Then get the Regex Coach. Google to find it. It's free, works great and is
super for learning regex

Is there a coding standards document out there that is considered the
'norm' ? I am new to PHP and would like to implement a coding standard
consistent with the way the community codes (if possible).

TIA,
  John
