Topic: Php form validation
demzl25 priority asked 5 years ago
Hi, How to add to contact form server side php validation to prevent user from entering url and html tags in textarea?
Thanks.

This one should work:
if (preg_match('#^<.>.+</.>$#', $_POST['content'])) {
echo "Content cannot contain HTML Tags!";
}
if (strpos($_POST['content'], 'http') !== false || strpos($_POST['content'], 'https://') !== false) {
echo "Content cannot contain URL!";
}

Thanks,
I have put this line of code to my (mail.php) but is not working! Here is my (php) code.
'Prosim izpolnite zahtevana polja', 'code' => 0)); exit(); } if ($email === ''){ print json_encode(array('message' => 'Prosim izpolnite zahtevana polja', 'code' => 0)); exit(); } else { if (!filter_var($email, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)){ print json_encode(array('message' => 'Vaš e-mail vsebuje nedovoljene znake', 'code' => 0)); exit(); } } if ($phone === ''){ print json_encode(array('numeric' => 'Prosim izpolnite zahtevana polja', 'code' => 0)); exit(); } if ($message === ''){ print json_encode(array('message' => 'Prosim izpolnite zahtevana polja', 'code' => 0)); exit(); } if (preg_match('#^.+$#', $_POST['content'])) { echo "Content cannot contain HTML Tags!"; } if (strpos($_POST['content'], 'http') !== false || strpos($_POST['content'], 'https://') !== false) { echo "Content cannot contain URL!"; } $content="From: $name \nEmail: $email \nMessage: $message \nPhone: $phone"; $recipient = "info@regresija-hipnoza.si"; $mailheader = "Sporocilo: $email \r\n"; $email_subject ='Regresija-hipnoza'; // Format maila: mail(to,subject,message,headers,parameters); // ---> V primeru da pustiš nekaj praznega mail(to,'',sporocilo,header, parameter) mail($recipient,$mailheader,$content) or die("Napaka!"); header("location: https://www.regresija-hipnoza.si/zahvalna-stran.html"); exit(); ?>Thanks.

You need to replace $_POST['content'] with the real string in your code
