Nothing happens

[brandon0layton89]

For some reason nothing happens when I click the button. Nothing echos, all that happens is the page refreshes...
This is my php code:

class functions {
    public static function chooseGiftee($SS){
        echo "chooseGiftee function started...";
        $gifteeResults;
        $sqllink= mysql_connect($host,$user,$pass);
           if(!$sqllink){
               echo "Could not connect! Please Try Again";
            return mysql_error();
           } else {
            echo "Connected!";
            echo "Selecting Table... ";
            if(mysql_select_db("bplayton_ss")){
                echo "Selected the Table!";
                echo "Fetching row...";
                   $selectGiftee = "SELECT * FROM ss WHERE Gifter = '' ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 10";
                   if($results = mysql_query($selectGiftee)){
                    echo "Fetched " .$results. " as the row!";
                    $gifteeResults = $results['Name'];
                    $addSS = "UPDATE ss SET Gifter = '$SS' WHERE Name = '$gifteeResults'";
                    echo "Updating Gifter...";
                if(mysql_query($addSS)){
                          echo "Updated Gifter!";
                       return $gifteeResults;
                    } else {
                        echo "Couldn't update Gifter! please try again.";
                        return "ERROR! TRY AGAIN";
                    }
                } else {
                    echo "error:";
                    echo mysql_error();
                    return "ERROR! TRY AGAIN!";
                }
            } else {
                echo "ERROR: " .mysql_error();
                return "ERROR! TRY AGAIN!";
            }
            mysql_close($sqllink);
        }
    }
}
if($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == "POST"){
    $echoName = functions::chooseGiftee($_POST['gifterName']);
    echo "Get a gift for: " .$echoName. " and don't tell them ;)";
}

Hopefully its a stupid mistake that I made and someone can explain what is wrong.
Thanks,
Brandon

You're gunna laugh I swear it.

#1: Change your mysql username/password ASAP, it's exposed in the code because:
#2: HTML doesn't process through the php engine, and the page is a .html page. Change the extension to .php and update your mysql username/pass since they're currently exposed What's happening is it's viewing it just like a txt file. The PHP code isn't actually -being- processed as php - it's going straight through as text.


Edit 2: Forgot to mention, there's nothing I can see wrong with the code, but I checked your account to see if the file was on there and to see if that would explain why it wasn't working. It did.

I dont see the exposure for my password...
Ok, so just change to .php? simple fix i guess. haha
Thanks

Your password is exposed because if you put PHP code in .html files, it just outputs the code.

Therefore, your password is exposed.
