Can you show me some example how to get variables with POST Method.

Hi Krum,

Here is a small example:

PHP Code:


			
<?php

class IndexController extends Zend_Controller_Action

{

    public function indexAction()

    {

        // Our post array: ['name'] => 'Alan', ['country'] => 'UK'

        

        // Check for a POST request

        if ($this->_request->isPost())

        {

            // Get the 'name' and 'country' values from the $_POST array

            $name = $this->_request->getPost('name');

            $country = $this->_request->getPost('country');

            

            echo 'Hello ' . $name . ' from ' . $country . '!';            

        }



    }

}

Thanks Alan, I work on mail form, so my problem is how to connect controller with view index page.

Hi Krum,

I'm not sure what you mean. Are you trying to include the output from your mail controller in your index view?

If so, take a look at the ActionStack helper. This should do what you need.

Thanks Alan, I have mail form, where user will send mail to me,(mail, name, subjet, body...). So I want to take data with post method in controller and send email. I will send code that I want to use with Zend Framework.
<html>
<body>

Code:

<?php
if (isset($_REQUEST['email']))
//if "email" is filled out, send email
  {
  //send email
  $email = $_REQUEST['email'] ;
  $subject = $_REQUEST['subject'] ;
  $message = $_REQUEST['message'] ;
  mail( "krum@example.com", "Subject: $subject",
  $message, "From: $email" );
  echo "Your email is send";
  }
else
//if "email" is not filled out, display the form
  {
  echo "<form method='post' action='mailform.php'>
  Email: <input name='email' type='text' /><br />
  Subject: <input name='subject' type='text' /><br />
  Message:<br />
  <textarea name='message' rows='15' cols='40'>
  </textarea><br />
  <input type='submit' />
  </form>";
  }
?>

</body>
</html>
