I have a script for the forum. By default, users can only post if it has opened the site to determine the parent first.
For example domain.com/new.php?parent=3
Here I am trying to modify using the dropdown. For example: OPTION 1 (value1) OPTION 2 (value2) OPTION 3 (value3)
I add $parent=$_POST['parent']; following the example of the $title=$_POST['title']; But always failed.
Is there a solution?
CODE:
<?php
//This page let users create new topics
include('config.php');
if(isset($_GET['parent']))
{
$id = intval($_GET['parent']);
if(isset($_SESSION['username']))
{
$dn1 = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query('select count(c.id) as nb1, c.name from categories as c where c.id="'.$id.'"'));
if($dn1['nb1']>0)
{
?>
