Why is my editor not working correctly?

ChetUbetcha · June 01, 2007, 06:03:06 PM

I created a PHP article and saved it. When the editor window refreshes, it looks like this...

Why do I get half my code in the editor, but the rest appears as an actual html screen? If I try editing something in this messed up mode, I cannot click the save button to make any changes. Sorry, don't have all the code on me at this moment. I'm hoping it's something outside my code that's breaking this (i.e. portal flaw)

Thanks!

I found this as well http://www.tinyportal.net/index.php?topic=15955.0. I'll try this too, but I hope there is more info here to help with this issue.

Can you post the code you are using? also if the code has <?php and ?> in they need to be removed! from the start and end of the code

Here's what I'm using. Go easy though, I'm a newb!

BTW, I'm using Dreamweaver, so I'm building the PHP pages in DW and then editing them to work with the portal. I've made a few block codes that work fine this way, but this one seems to give me nothing but problems. Everything seems to be working fine right now, minus the calendar (click on the text window and a calendar is supposed to drop down to select different dates). I've also noticed that clicking submit is not adding records to my DB. When it rains, it pours!

Code Select

global $txt, $scripturl, $user_info, $context, $modSettings, $ID_MEMBER, $board_info, $settings, $db_prefix, $options;

require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . '/ngisdoportalDB.php');

function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "") 
{
  $theValue = (!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? addslashes($theValue) : $theValue;

  switch ($theType) {
    case "text":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
      break;    
    case "long":
    case "int":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? intval($theValue) : "NULL";
      break;
    case "double":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . doubleval($theValue) . "'" : "NULL";
      break;
    case "date":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
      break;
    case "defined":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theDefinedValue : $theNotDefinedValue;
      break;
  }
  return $theValue;
}

$editFormAction = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
if (isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
  $editFormAction .= "?" . htmlentities($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);
}

if ((isset($_POST["MM_insert"])) && ($_POST["MM_insert"] == "form")) {
  $insertSQL = sprintf("INSERT INTO reports (report_type, `section`, section_ai, ai_number, ai_issue, ai_status, bullet_date, bullet_text) VALUES (%s, %s, %s, %s, %s, %s, %s, %s)",
                       GetSQLValueString($_POST['report_type'], "text"),
                       GetSQLValueString($_POST['ai'], "text"),
                       GetSQLValueString(isset($_POST['ai_checkbox']) ? "true" : "", "defined","'Y'","'N'"),
                       GetSQLValueString($_POST['ai_number'], "text"),
                       GetSQLValueString($_POST['ai_issue'], "text"),
                       GetSQLValueString($_POST['ai_status'], "text"),
                       GetSQLValueString($_POST['bullet_date'], "text"),
                       GetSQLValueString($_POST['bullet_text'], "text"));

  mysql_select_db($database_ngisdoportalDB, $ngisdoportalDB);
  $Result1 = mysql_query($insertSQL, $ngisdoportalDB) or die(mysql_error());

  $insertGoTo = "http://steelhead/interactive/forum/index.php?page=25";
  if (isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
    $insertGoTo .= (strpos($insertGoTo, '?')) ? "&" : "?";
    $insertGoTo .= $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
  }
  header(sprintf("Location: %s", $insertGoTo));
}

mysql_select_db($database_ngisdoportalDB, $ngisdoportalDB);
$query_report = "SELECT * FROM reports";
$report = mysql_query($query_report, $ngisdoportalDB) or die(mysql_error());
$row_report = mysql_fetch_assoc($report);
$totalRows_report = mysql_num_rows($report);

Not being a coder myself

But I didn't think you could mix php with html like that!
But I am sure someone will be along to correct me

ChetUbetcha · June 01, 2007, 06:42:37 PM

I installed the custom fields mod, created phone, pager, cell, etc. items and then created a DW file to generate a phone listing. When I put it into TP, I simply replaced the beginning required php lines with the few typical TP ones and it works like a charm. That's why I stumped as to why it won't work with this one. The editor shows code down to <td width="24%" valign="top"><textarea name="ai_issue" cols="30" rows="4", then it starts showing the actual page in the editor.

sorry I cant be much help, I am just not good with php, Html ok
