Working with two JumpMenu

**princegifted** · 11-04-2012 09:22 AM

I tried using the redirect.php to direct the behavior of the viewpassQ.php JumpMenu but the behavior is still not okay as it work just on one subject rather than all the subjects. I have designed webpages for each subjects on yearly basis ranging from 2000-2011 and intend to add 2012 and subsequent years later. I wish that as soon as a visitor selects a subject and a year, the visitor should be directed to the corresponding webpage(eg. Biology-2011 = Biologypassq2011.php).

viewpassQ.php
<tr>
<td><select name="jumpMenu" id="jumpMenu">
<option selected="selected">Select Subject</option>
<option value="Biology">Biology</option>
<option>Chemistry</option>
<option>Christian Religious Knowledge</option>
<option>Commerce</option>
<option>Economics</option>
<option>English Language</option>
<option>Government</option>
<option>Mathematics</option>
<option>Physics</option>
<option>Principle of Accounts</option>
<option>Agricultural Science</option>
</select>
<div align="center">
<label></label>
</div></td>
<td> </td>
<td><select name="jumpMenu2" id="jumpMenu2">
<option selected="selected">Select Year</option>
<option value="2000">2000</option>

<option value="20011">2011</option>
<option value="20012">2012</option>
</select></td>
</tr>

redirect.php
<?php
$jumpMenu=$_POST['jumpMenu'];
$jumpMenu2=$_POST['jumpMenu2'];

if($jumpMenu=='Biology' && $jumpMenu2=='2000'){
header("Location: passq/biologypassq2000.php");
}

?>

PHP Code:


<?php
$categories = array(
    'Biology' => 'biology',
    'Chemistry' => 'chemistry',
    'Christian Religious Knowledge' => 'crk', // whatever actual file name is?
    'Commerce' => 'commerce' // etc....
);

if(!empty($_POST['jumpMenu']) and isset($categories[$_POST['jumpMenu']])) {
    if(!empty($_POST['jumpMenu2']) and ctype_digit($_POST['jumpMenu2'])) {
        $file = $categories[$_POST['jumpMenu']].'passq'.$_POST['jumpMenu2'].'.php';
        if(file_exists($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']).'passq/'.$file) {
            header('Location: passq/'.$file);
            exit;
        }
    }
}
else {
    // handle errors here?
}

Thanks so much for your response. see below for some change made to the php and the HTML. But i still haven't achieved my goal.

<?php
$categories = array(
'Biology' => 'biology',
'Chemistry' => 'chemistry',
'Christian Religious Knowledge' => 'christian religious knowledge',
'Commerce' => 'commerce'
'Economics' => 'economics'
'English Language' => 'english language'
'Government' => 'government'
'Mathematics' => 'mathematics'
'Physics' => 'physics'
'Principle of Accounts' => 'principle of accounts'
'Agricultural Science' => 'Agricultural Science'
);

if(!empty($_POST['jumpMenu']) and isset($categories[$_POST['jumpMenu']])) {
if(!empty($_POST['jumpMenu2']) and ctype_digit($_POST['jumpMenu2'])) {
$file = $categories[$_POST['jumpMenu']].'passq'.$_POST['jumpMenu2'].'.php';
if(file_exists($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']).'passq/'.$file) {
header('Location: passq/'.$file);
exit;
}
}
}
else {
// handle errors here?
}
