Please can anyone help me on this form, I need to have this done pretty much right now for my client and I am lost! Not the best at PHP. What needs to happen is whenever a user fills out the form it needs to redirect the URL based on the inputs added for the form. For example if they choose any of the drop-downs listed it will take them to that specific page. I actually got all of that working through javascript as shown. The next part where I need help is when they enter a correct zip code being that of San Diego, it will take them to the page that they chose in the drop-down. If they don't input a correct zip code of San Diego, it will take them to a a different 'nation wide page'. Completely overriding the drop-down selections. I really need help with this, can anyone please help me out? Thanks for any input that can be added because I am super lost on what to do right now...

Are you sure this functionality is what you need? You want to change the action of the form instead of handling the redirecting in one spot?
Let's start here: Your form is using post, but you look for $_GET['zip']. You need to change that to listen for one or the other. Since this looks like a filtering form, I suggest using get:
<form method='get' id='gform_1' action='front-page.php'>
You don't need enctype there, and your method should be get. Now, your submission code should have isset around it:
if(isset($_GET['zip'])){
$sandiego = array('91911', '91914', '91915', '91932', '91942', '91945', '91950', '92014', '92025', '92027', '92029', '92037', '92064', '92065', '92067', '92071', '92075', '92101', '92102', '92103', '92104', '92105', '92106', '92107', '92108', '92109', '92110', '92111', '92113', '92114', '92115', '92116', '92117', '92118', '92119', '92120', '92121', '92122', '92123', '92124', '92126', '92127', '92128', '92129', '92130', '92131', '92132', '92134', '92135', '92139', '92140', '92145', '92147', '92154', '92173');
if (in_array($_GET['zip'], $sandiego)){
header("Location: http://www.pureflo.com/"); // <- you sure about this?
} else {
header("Location: http://www.pureflo.com/");
}
}
Your zip checker targets the same location for both. Perhaps you should utilize the select you made that currently has no name, so it won't populate in the get array:
if (in_array($_GET['zip'], $sandiego)){
header("Location: ".urldecode($_GET['selection'])."?zip=".$_GET['zip']."&type=".$_GET['type']);
} else {
header("Location: http://www.pureflo.com/");
}
exit;
And make sure to give your selection input html a name:
<select name="selection">
You do not need that js unless you really feel like writing submission handling code in several different places or including it. PS - you don't want to do that. If you do, you're confused.
Your radio buttons need values and should probably have a less specific name:
<input name="type" type="radio" id="homeradio" value="home" />
<input name="type" type="radio" id="officeradio" value="office" />
You may want to update your question with the actual intention of this form. I would assume it is requesting service information. Like - you say you want water for home and it should take you to something like:
http://50.22.79.62/~pftech/water-delivery-service/?zip=xxxxx&type=home
This is pretty simple.
Your whole code would be something like this:
<?php
if(isset($_GET['zip'])){
$sandiego = array('91911', '91914', '91915', '91932', '91942', '91945', '91950', '92014', '92025', '92027', '92029', '92037', '92064', '92065', '92067', '92071', '92075', '92101', '92102', '92103', '92104', '92105', '92106', '92107', '92108', '92109', '92110', '92111', '92113', '92114', '92115', '92116', '92117', '92118', '92119', '92120', '92121', '92122', '92123', '92124', '92126', '92127', '92128', '92129', '92130', '92131', '92132', '92134', '92135', '92139', '92140', '92145', '92147', '92154', '92173');
if (in_array($_GET['zip'], $sandiego)){
header("Location: ".urldecode($_GET['selection'])."?zip=".$_GET['zip']."&type=".$_GET['type']);
} else {
header("Location: http://www.pureflo.com/");
}
exit;
}
?>

</form>
A closing note, your code should verify there is a value selected for the service dropdown and just return errors instead of forcing the user around.
PS - your submission handling needs to be done BEFORE any html is sent to the browser. My example does not properly show a separation. It looks inline but that is not the intention. The form check code should happen as close to the top of the file as possible
JAVASCRIPT EXAMPLE:
<script type="text/javascript">
var sandiego = ['91911', '91914', '91915', '91932', '91942', '91945', '91950', '92014', '92025', '92027', '92029', '92037', '92064', '92065', '92067', '92071', '92075', '92101', '92102', '92103', '92104', '92105', '92106', '92107', '92108', '92109', '92110', '92111', '92113', '92114', '92115', '92116', '92117', '92118', '92119', '92120', '92121', '92122', '92123', '92124', '92126', '92127', '92128', '92129', '92130', '92131', '92132', '92134', '92135', '92139', '92140', '92145', '92147', '92154', '92173'];

if(haystack[i] == needle) return true;
}
return false;
}
</script>
check the method of your from :) and after the header() use exit to prevent further execution of the php
<?php
$zip = $_POST['zip']; //your form method is post
$sandiego = array('91911', '91914', '91915', '91932', '91942', '91945', '91950', '92014', '92025', '92027', '92029', '92037', '92064', '92065', '92067', '92071', '92075', '92101', '92102', '92103', '92104', '92105', '92106', '92107', '92108', '92109', '92110', '92111', '92113', '92114', '92115', '92116', '92117', '92118', '92119', '92120', '92121', '92122', '92123', '92124', '92126', '92127', '92128', '92129', '92130', '92131', '92132', '92134', '92135', '92139', '92140', '92145', '92147', '92154', '92173');
if (in_array($zip, $sandiego)){
header("Location: ".$_POST['selection']);
exit;
} else {

exit;
