HTML & CSS Need help with search bar + html

[abemporat]

Hi guys!

Im trying to develp a search bar for IMEI look ups,

Basically when you put your imei, click search and the results will pop up.

I have the API Key for the database of the imei results, i just need a code to put a searchbar with the API key integrated in order for it to work correctly.

I hope that i explained correctly, if not, feel free to ask

Thanks for all the help beforehand.

Hey @abemporat!

Very interesting! So what you’re trying to do is build a search bar, what have you tried so far? Perhaps using a form input? Do you also need help with retrieving information?

Perhaps we can get more experienced hands on this as well! @Ghost, @Krusty the Senile, @swift, @Mathematical, @Alan, and or anyone else have any solutions to this?

I tried with an html coded search bar, but i dont seem to understand how to insert the api key code.

Maybe someone has more knowledge on this?

I need the searchbar to look for the imei information (provided by the api key) and display it on my site.

I have tried and read a lot of articles/forums to try to get to this but nothing so far.

Hoping to hear from anyone soon!

Thanks before hand

Hey there. I'm not exactly going to help you directly with the programming but I'm just gonna give a bit of advice and a couple of suggestions too.

Let's hop in.

I tried with an html coded search bar, but i dont seem to understand how to insert the api key code.

So, first of all, you cannot write a search-bar in HTML. HTML is a mark-up language, not a scripting or programming-language. What you write in a HTML document, is then rendered by a web-browser, and displayed on a page. No calculations or that are performed. If you want to do things such as calculations or a search-bar, you'll need either JavaScript, PHP, Ruby/Ruby-On-Rails, Python, or Java.

The thing is, you can embed scripts into HTML using the <script></script> tag. That though, by itself, is for JavaScript code. If you want to embed PHP code, then you put <?php ?> inside the HTML document. So:

<?php
     // Your code here.
?>

That's how you'd embed a PHP script into a HTML document. For JavaScript, as I said, you just need the <script></script> tag, and then you just write your JavaScript in that. Although, you can actually embed .js(JavaScript files), using the <link> tag.

W3Schools has a couple of pages regarding the <script></script> and <link> tags. I suggest giving them a read:

HTML link tag

W3Schools offers free online tutorials, references and exercises in all the major languages of the web. Covering popular subjects like HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Python, SQL, Java, and many, many more.

HTML JavaScript

W3Schools offers free online tutorials, references and exercises in all the major languages of the web. Covering popular subjects like HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Python, SQL, Java, and many, many more.

www.w3schools.com

Seeing as this is an API, could you perhaps link to where you got it? If you can, then maybe we can dig through the API's website, and then possibly after some digging around, we can help you then. Also, do you know if the API has any documentation available for yourself to read through? Perhaps if you dig through the documentation, you can find something useful in it.

Hello!

Thank you so much, I'll give it my best shot, I'm sorta new to all the coding world.

The API is here: https://rapidapi.com/ismaelc/api/imei-info

Let me know if there is a way you can help me further,

Appreciate all the help beforehand!

Hello!

Thank you so much, I'll give it my best shot, I'm sorta new to all the coding world.

No problem. There are many people here on CF who are also new to programming, but you're just one of those several people.

Feel free to look around here for tutorials on how to do things. Many tutorials are being written by regular members and staff-members too, so keep an eye out for them. Also, seeing as this is a website that you're working on, consider checking out W3Schools and MDN(Mozilla Developer Network) for resources and learning-material on HTML5, CSS, JS, and PHP. For PHP though, I'd suggest reading the documentation over at PHP's official site: https://www.php.net

I say this because in my opinion, W3Schools's tutorials on PHP are terrible and poorly detailed, and MDN doesn't offer any resources on PHP, which is a bummer for some.

The API is here: https://rapidapi.com/ismaelc/api/imei-info

Thanks for sharing the API with us. Everyone who gets involved in this thread, I suppose will be looking through it to find ways to help you. In the meantime, as I said, head over to W3Schools, MDN, and PHP's official site to learn a bit about HTML, CSS, JS, and if you choose(Or if the API requires it), PHP. Once you learn a bit about each of the languages, I suggest going over the APIs documentation yourself to see how everything works and connects together.

As for your learning again, set aside an hour or two everyday to learn a bit, with breaks in-between of course.

Thank you so much, I'll give it my best shot, I'm sorta new to all the coding world.

Like @Mathematical many coders on Code Forum are new as well. But no matter what you're skill level is you'll always be welcomed here at Code Forum. As a community we will help each other.

The API is here: https://rapidapi.com/ismaelc/api/imei-info

Let me know if there is a way you can help me further,

Appreciate all the help beforehand!

Thank you for providing the API this will help others to help find you a solution. Of course, please don't be shy, look around perhaps ask questions that may help you find a solution to this thread. Again, like @Mathematical suggested head to MDN, w3schools or even search on Google and perhaps touch up on HTML, CSS, JS and PHP.

Ok so;

I got a lil hang of it now, this is the php file i want to edit, its already built up to work for DOMAIN SEARCH, but i need to integrate it for the IMEI SEARCH with the api:

$error_reporting = false;
}

}

I also changed the API, here is a screenshot



Appreciate the help!

Ok so;

I got a lil hang of it now, this is the php file i want to edit, its already built up to work for DOMAIN SEARCH, but i need to integrate it for the IMEI SEARCH with the api:

<?php
//
<?php
/**
* Class responsible for checking if a domain is registered
*
*
* @param boolean $error_reporting Set if the function should display errors or suppress them, default is false
* @return boolean true means the domain is NOT registered
*/
class Auxpro_Domain_Checker {

private $error_reporting;


public function __construct($debug = false) {
if ( $debug ) {
error_reporting(E_ALL);
$error_reporting = true;
} else {
error_reporting(0);
$error_reporting = false;
}

}


/**
* This function checks if the supplied domain name is registered
*
*
* @param string $domain The domain that will be checked for registration.
* @param boolean $error_reporting Set if the function should display errors or suppress them, default is TRUE
* @return boolean true means the domain is NOT registered
*/
public function is_available($domain) {

// make the domain lowercase
$domain = strtolower($domain);

// Set the timeout (in seconds) for the socket open function.
$timeout = 10;



/**
* This array contains the list of WHOIS servers and the "domain not found" string
* to be searched for to check if the domain is available for registration.
*
* NOTE: The "domain not found" string may change at any time for any reason.

I also changed the API, here is a screenshot

Appreciate the help!

Thanks for sharing. Please remember to wrap the code in BBCode, it makes it so much easier to read. You can do this within the editor and clicking the (...) select Code.

Done!

Edited, hope i can receive any help with this information

Done!

Edited, hope i can receive any help with this information

Me too! But let me assure you, no matter what I'll do my best to ensure this gets answered.

This is easier than it looks. @abemporat Try studying GET and POST methods to add to your html tag. In this case you would need a GET method added to the HTML tag right before the input area. In this case you would need your input to be submitted.

Here's an example.

<form action="path/to/php/file.php" method="GET">
<label for="searchBar">Search for API</label><br>
  <input type="text" id="idForStyling" value="enter your search here"><br><br>
    <input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

GET methods are mainly for what your looking to do as POST methods are usually for logins or where sensitive information is entered in the form so no one can find the information the user submitted. Simply set the little HTML beauty up and add the path to your PHP file. If the PHP file is set up properly, you should have no problem getting this to work.

I hope that helps you

Here is more info on GET and POST on w3schools. Should study this and it will be a piece of cake -> https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_forms.asp

(Comment - As unfortunately, the commenting system has been removed due it not being used, and also for "ruining" the post-flow) As another way to learn about the GET and POST methods, I'd actually recommend checking out the official PHP documentation over at: https://www.php.net

Not trying to say that W3Schools is bad, but in my opinion, they aren't really good for languages like PHP or Python. I'd only say W3Schools is better for HTML, CSS, JS, and possibly jQuery but that's about it.

OK this is the html code for the search bar.

But, the .php file linked to the api... that is what is making me crazy, i need to make the php i attached before, to look for IMEI information on the API key i submitted, how do i change that?

 

[swift]

Have you set up PHP on your machine in some method? You'll need some way of running PHP scripts, if you've got PHP set up already then for quick and dirty scripts I just use the built in web server. Alternatively you'll need to use something else (MAMP, XAMP - if they still exist?), Docker with PHP. Basically anything that will take your PHP file and actually run the code.

Assuming you have PHP installed, the code is actually right there for you on that page:



On the right hand side of that page you click the drop down menu to change the language.

This line:
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => "imei=355136052818864",

Is the one you'll want to replace with your input from your search form. I think as has been suggested, just use a GET request from the search.

In your PHP you'll do something like:

$imei = $_GET['imei'];

// add some validation to make sure you get a valid number (ie. check that its an integer)

// .. curl stuff
curl_setopt_array($curl, array(
    CURLOPT_URL => "https://ismaelc-imei-info.p.rapidapi.com/checkimei",
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION => true,
CURLOPT_ENCODING => "",
CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS => 10,
CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 30,
CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION => CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1,
CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST => "POST",
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS => "imei=$imei",
//... etc

Hopefully this will set you on the right path; I'm always reluctant to just give the answer away and rather send you down the right path.

@abemporat I wouldn't know much on the back-end. I'm still new to PHP. But hopefully the above poster was able to assist you. He seems really helpful.
