ah ive read around and seeing info that it is detailing this when date is null or not parsed through correctly. still checking

yeah kind of get it! although the date coming through now on the source code of the iframe is 01/01/1970! haha.

<?php $arrivaldate = date('d/m/Y', strtotime($_REQUEST['arrival']));
//similar for departure
//my echo example here with curly braces inserted goes here
?>
<?php $departuredate = date('d/m/Y', strtotime($_REQUEST['departure']));
//similar for departure
//my echo example here with curly braces inserted goes here
?>

<?php echo "<iframe name=\"iframeTarget\" id=\"iframeTarget\" src=\"https://uk2.roomlynx.net/rezrooms2/loadOBMApplication.action?siteId=KAYSCLAY&request_locale=en&chainAction=newAvailabilitySearch&arrival={$arrivaldate}&departure={$departuredate}&numberOfPersons={$_REQUEST['numberOfPersons']}&numberOfChildren={$_REQUEST['numberOfChildren']}\" frameborder=\"0\" allowTransparency=\"true\" seamless></iframe>"; ?>

OUTCOME from SOURCECODE

<iframe name="iframeTarget" id="iframeTarget" src="https://uk2.roomlynx.net/rezrooms2/loadOBMApplication.action?siteId=KAYSCLAY&request_locale=en&chainAction=newAvailabilitySearch&arrival=01/01/1970&departure=01/01/1970&numberOfPersons=3&numberOfChildren=4" frameborder="0" allowTransparency="true" seamless></iframe>

tried this with no success:

{$_REQUEST = arrival('d/m/Y', strtotime['arrival']}

one small issue going on now! This works in most browsers apart from safari! its changing the date format. As you said i need to format the date format backend in php to ensure the correct format is always used.

ive looked everywhere and seen so many examples but getting no where whilst changing date formats in outputted string.

any ideas? I need the dates to be dd/mm/yyyy.

<?php echo "<iframe name=\"iframeTarget\" id=\"iframeTarget\" src=\"https://uk2.roomlynx.net/rezrooms2/loadOBMApplication.action?siteId=KAYSCLAY&request_locale=en&chainAction=newAvailabilitySearch&arrival={$_REQUEST['arrival']}&departure={$_REQUEST['departure']}&numberOfPersons={$_REQUEST['numberOfPersons']}&numberOfChildren={$_REQUEST['numberOfChildren']}\" frameborder=\"0\" allowTransparency=\"true\" seamless></iframe>"; ?>

bcworkz – I cant thank you enough, its working! I’ve used jquery datepicker on front end to valid date the date that is coming though. Only issue is, as you mentioned, when java is turned off. I’ll look into that. Many thanks for your help.

Hi bcworkz, thank you very much for your response. so far, i am just receiving a blank screen on the expected iframe page now.

For my text editor, I use textpad, which does highlight the variables.

Using your last entry above, replacing iBrame with iframe, and replacing the external url part, it shows the blank page (must be an error somewhere) – also stops showing variables after the first in text editor.

So, i made all variables use the request function and had to replace & with &amp in between each for the variables to stand out. My last code is below but unfortunately, still shows white screen!

<?php echo "<iframe name=\"testframe\" src=\"https://uk2.roomlynx.net/rezrooms2/loadOBMApplication.action?siteId=KAYSCLAY&request_locale=en&chainAction=newAvailabilitySearch&arrival=$_REQUEST['arrival']&departure=$_REQUEST['departure']&numberOfPersons=$_REQUEST['numberOfPersons']&numberOfChildren=$_REQUEST['numberOfChildren']\"></iframe>"; ?>

I have yet to do any validation on the front end, but was at least previously seeing some page. Although did make input field type date and using latest firefox right now.

Any thoughts?

Could do with some help please?

I’m making progress. here is form:

<form target="iframeTarget" action="/book-online/" class="FormGuestline" id="FormGuestline" method="GET">
	<input name="request_locale" type="hidden" value="en" />
	<input name="siteId" type="hidden" value="KAYSGATE" />
	<input name="pagename" type="hidden" value="Book-Now" />
	<input name="chainAction" type="hidden" value="newAvailabilitySearch" />

	<div class="FormField Arrival">
		<label for="arrival">Arrival Date</label> <input id="arrival" name="arrival" type="text" /></div>
	<div class="FormField Departure">
		<label for="departure">Departure Date</label> <input id="departure" name="departure" type="text" /></div>
	<div class="FormField NumberOfPersons">
		<label for="numberOfPersons">Adults</label> <select id="numberOfPersons" name="numberOfPersons"><option value="0">0</option><option value="1">1</option><option value="2">2</option><option value="3">3</option><option value="4">4</option><option value="5">5</option></select></div>
	<div class="FormField NumberOfChildren">
		<label for="numberOfChildren">Children</label> <select id="numberOfChildren" name="numberOfChildren"><option value="0">0</option><option value="1">1</option><option value="2">2</option><option value="3">3</option><option value="4">4</option><option value="5">5</option></select></div>
	<div class="FormField Submit">
		<input type="submit" value="Book now" /></div>
</form>

here is iframe
<iframe name="iframeTarget" id="iframeTarget" src="https://externalwebsite.action" width="1200px" height="1235px" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowTransparency="true" seamless></iframe>

outcome is this:
https://www.mywebsite/book-online/?request_locale=en&siteId=KAYSGATE&pagename=Book-Now-Connaught-Hotel-Bournemouth&chainAction=newAvailabilitySearch&arrival=28%2F11%2F2013&departure=29%2F11%2F2013&numberOfPersons=2&numberOfChildren=2

so almost there, the resulting page receiving the parameters is displaying the passed parameters in the url, but it is not affecting the iframe.

affraid i dont, ive been reading about using the loop-category.php file as well, but this template doesnt have it either. i think the get_template_part is just refering to the main loop file but then i cannot see any reference in that script which particularly is being used for the category pages.

For the love of god.. i copy the whole loop file!

<?php /* If there are no posts to display, such as an empty archive page */ ?>
<?php if ( ! have_posts() ) : ?>

<div id="post-0" class="post error404 not-found">
	<h1 class="entry-title">
		<?php _e( 'Not Found', 'twentyten' ); ?>
	</h1>
</div>
<!-- #post-0 -->
<?php endif; ?>
<?php
	/* Start the Loop.
	 *
	 * In Twenty Ten we use the same loop in multiple contexts.
	 * It is broken into three main parts: when we're displaying
	 * posts that are in the gallery category, when we're displaying
	 * posts in the asides category, and finally all other posts.
	 *
	 * Additionally, we sometimes check for whether we are on an
	 * archive page, a search page, etc., allowing for small differences
	 * in the loop on each template without actually duplicating
	 * the rest of the loop that is shared.
	 *
	 * Without further ado, the loop:

after posting, and making a comment on post, no comments are coming in. This did work but has stopped.

thanks john, just installed core control as there is no wpbook_debug.txt file anywhere in plugin folder(s). Ill keep posted, thanks

Hi all, my issue is all resolved. I was using the wrong PageID. Plus the blank white page issue i resolved by going into the app settings and making “Remove offline_access permission:” set to enabled. Enabled is default but some other advice elsewhere told me to change it too disabled which isnt right.

Thanks John for help, app is awesome.

i am trying to post to https://www.facebook.com/hintleshamfisheries which from your link above, seems like you have the right page ID. I used 155716824446169 as an ID for the page, regenerated the token and then posted again in WP. All i got was a blank white screen. So i returned to wp and received the error

Your Facebook Access Token for WPBook Lite has expired. Please visit the settings page for WPBook Lite and grant a new access token. Until you do so, cross-posting to Facebook and import of comments will fail.

I will investigate this now. thanks so far, craig

yes, file ends right on “image is”

Both Profile and Page/Group Post Type Options are as posts.

yes i am receiving the same error message craig – “Caught exception in publish to page (#200) This API call requires a valid app_id. Error code: 0”

In terms of the token, it was successfully stored and detailed within the WPbook lite settings page – however, I have logged in this morning and now se the following error:

“Your Facebook Access Token for WPBook Lite has expired. Please visit the settings page for WPBook Lite and grant a new access token. Until you do so, cross-posting to Facebook and import of comments will fail.”

If it is of any help, the facebook apps advanced settings had “Remove offline_access permission:” set to disabled.

The page ID i am trying to post to is 460172777333904 (fishing page).

Many thanks John.
