i have a few questions

Frihost Forum Index -> Scripting -> Php and MySQL

i had a few questions
i was wondering how i can close a window after submiting its infomation. this is wat i have

Code:

<?php
foreach($_POST as $key => $value){
$$key= $value;
}
//check msg
if ($_POST['name']=="" || $_POST['msg']==""){
echo "Please go back and fill in every field.";

}
/
//Database stuff
if('$submit'){
$date=date(" M- d H:i");
$connect=mysql_connect("localhost","root","");
mysql_select_db("learnit");
mysql_query("INSERT INTO shoutbox(date,name,msg) VALUES('$date','$name','$msg')") or die(mysql_error());
mysql_close($connect) or die(mysql_error());
}
echo
?>
// i want the window to close here, if it doesnt the window remains blank

i was also wondering if this loop is secure

Code:

foreach($_POST as $key => $value){
$$key= $value;
}

and my last question is how can i make a page constantly refresh

You can not close window ulness you use javascript. If you want to use it you must include a javascript function which closes the window.
To make page refresh you can add below code between head tags.

Code:

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="2;url=http://www.box.az">

2 is for after how many second the page is going to refresh.

Javascript code for first is:
<script type="text/javascript">
window.close();
</script>

heh both of them worked thanxs guys

Code:

foreach($_POST as $key => $value){
$$key= $value;
}

I would say that no the loop isnt secure. The reason for me saying that is that i could create a form with a large amount of false things and exploiting code and your script would still accept it. If you specify which ones you want then this cannot be done.
