Set more variables to URL

[Earliboy]

Hello,
I'm currently editing a php script. The current URL is /file.php?id=2. I got an form which sets limit_rows so after refresh the url should look like /file.php?id=2&limit_rows=500
May its cause I'm too tired but what i get out of this is /?&limit_rows=500.

May you find whats wrong or what i forgot to add.

?>
	<center>
	<h5>Enter number of lines you want to see.</h5>
	<table>
		<form action="&" method="get">
			<input type="text" name="limit_rows" />
				<br/>
			<input type="submit" value="Refresh" />
		</form>
	</table>
	</center>
	<br>
<?php
	echo isset($_GET['limit_rows']) ? htmlspecialchars($_GET['limit_rows']) : '';

And no, the ?> isnt wrong, i just don't wanna copy&paste a 2k line script ^^.

Thanks for help.
Earli.

        <form action="<?=$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"]?>" method="get">

That should already do the trick (because its writing the old GET-parameters into the form-address).

Doesnt works, it redirects me to a different page (may cause some includings).

Can you look in the source-code and write here what PHP added to the formular? It shouldn't be possible that it directs you to another page (maybe Echelon is doing it on missing parameters).

		<form action="/echelon/clientdetails.php?id=2" method="get">
			<input type="text" name="limit_rows" />
				<br/>
			<input type="submit" value="Refresh" />
		</form>

But i get redirected to clients.php

[kung foo man]

Does it also redirects you to clients.php if you type the url (/echelon/clientdetails.php?id=2) directly into the browser?

[Earliboy]

If i type in /clientdetails?id=2&limit_rows=500 it shows 500 rows and also show up the standart value in the text box (500). So the limit_rows define when i type in by myself.

Well okay, i made some changes and the problem is may the overgiving of the URL.
Yes, i messed the code a littlebit up but i get my outputs that tells me that everything should be allright.

	$newURL = $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
	echo $newURL;
	
	$_GET['limit_rows'] = 500;

Sets the actualy URL and output it, also sets the limit rows to 500 (to test)
Output:

/echelon/clientdetails.php?id=2

next parts:

	$newURL .= "&limit_rows=".$_GET['limit_rows'];
	
	echo $newURL;
	echo "<br>";
	
	if(isset($_GET['limit_rows']))
	{
		$newURL .= "&limit_rows=".$_GET['limit_rows'];

		echo isset($newURL) ? htmlspecialchars($newURL) : '';
	}

Outputs:

/echelon/clientdetails.php?id=2&limit_rows=500
/echelon/clientdetails.php?id=2&limit_rows=500&limit_rows=500

Even the second line works fine if i set it manually to the url.

Actually Form:

	<center>
		<h5>Enter number of lines you want to see.</h5>
		<!--<form action="<?//=$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"]?>" method="get">-->
		<form action="<?php $newURL ?>" method="get">
			<input type="text" name="limit_rows" value="<?php echo $limit_rows?>" onblur="if(this.value == ''){ this.value = '<?php echo $limit_rows?>'; }" onfocus="if(this.value == '<?php echo $limit_rows?>'){ this.value = '';}" />
				<br/>
			<input type="submit" value="Refresh" />
		</form>
	</center>
	<br>

So the URL is fine, the overgive of the URL should be fine, the old one should output the same. Idk whats wrong at here, i still get redirected to clients.php if i click on the refresh button.

Any ideas?

And btw, I'm working now 3 hours on this error ^^
