Specific name typed, specific image shown on html page

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hello,

Fairly new to PHP and was curious if someone might know how to solve a fairly simple request.

I am currently passing the name of an end user (who types their name in a form field) to a URL which is then passed along and placed into an html page to personalize the page for them to print. Is there a way that I could use PHP to use a specific image for a specific name typed in the field?

Example would be:

Name typed in field: Bob
Picture used: Baseball

OR

Name typed in field: Alison:
Picture used: Cat

Below is some of the coder snippets I am using.



Here is the code from the form that the end user types in their name:

<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="name_of_user.php">

<label>Gallery Name:<br />
<input type="text" name="name" id="name" />
</label>
<br />
<label>
<input type="submit" name="Submit" id="Submit" value="Submit" />
</label>
</form>

Here is the code that receives the post from above file:
<?php

$Name = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['Name']));

// redirect to success page
if ($success){
print "<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL=path to file/comp_pass_exhibitor.php?name=$Name">";
}
else{
print "<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL=path to file/comp_pass_exhibitor.php?name=$Name">";
}
?>


________Below is code from the html page I want personalised_______

Here is the bit of code that places the name in the html page:
<p><strong>
<span style="text-transform:uppercase;"><?php echo $_GET['name']; ?></span>

some text that doesn't change</strong> </p>

Here is the bit of code for the image on the html page:

<td>
<img src=" What would go here " width="140" height="109" align="left">
</td>



Any help would be appreciated
