Hi Adam,
I am not sure this would help but does echo command end with semi colon ;
?..... <input type="hidden" name="form2"
> value="<?php echo $end?>"/>
Maybe the echo is having some issue? Else, you could try passing the
variables as method = get and view the variables in
Ur address bar....
regards,
Edwin.

No, the fields are populated in the first and second
form, form1 and form2. What I want to do is to get the selections from
both forms and pass them on to the third. Does this make sense? For some
reason, the text input and the semester drop down menu result can be
passed to process.php, but the results that I try to select from the
first and second does not. So, the form is not passing the results of
what I had from the radio button selections.
To illustrate, the
second looks something like this:
echo "<select
name='end_location'>";
while($nt=mysql_fetch_array($result)){//Array
or records stored in $nt
echo "<option
value=$nt[0]>$nt[0]</option>";
}
echo "</select>";
How
can I pass the values of what I picked in end_location here to
process.php?
Thanks for your help.

You can only pass results from both forms if you duplicate the results of one
in the other and then submit that one. You can't submit two forms at the same
time. Why do they have to be two forms anyway?
Well, two of them are created with Ajax that are passed through PHP, so you
select one drop down menu are a time, as the drop down menu comes from what you
select from a radio button. The results are dynamically. so I don't think they
are even created at the same time. Does this help in explaining what I am
trying to accomplish?
Thanks.

You should get the Ajax to modify the first form. It's a lot easier than
creating a second form that uses more Ajax to duplicate any selected values
from the first. Have a look at the JQuery library, it makes a lot of the
Javascript end a lot easier.
I know this is not a PHP question, but could you direct me to something more
specific on what I should do here? I am really new to Ajax.

Try a google search for jquery. The first site that comes up contains
all the documentation and examples to get you started.

Alice,
What you seem to be missing is that the browser, by design, will only
send the fields in the form that was submitted. If you want to change
that you need to either replace the browser with one you modified to act
the way you want, or change the page to combine all of the forms into
one. You can try to work around it using Javascript, but that will only
work for people that don't know enough to disable that primary infection
vector for malware.

Alice:
No offense, but "Looking" like something isn't going to cut it.
I advise you to:
1. Show us the code. -- give us a url where your code is located.
2. Tell us what you *want* to do -- and don't show us with "it looks
something like this" nonsense.
3. Get the simple stuff to work first before jumping into the harder stuff.
If you are willing to do the above, then I'll help you with your problem.
Please understand that forms are very simple with very simple rules
to follow. Enhancing forms with javascript routines can become
complicated very quickly. But if you can describe it, it can be done.
Cheers,
tedd

This has nothing to do with mod_fcgid. Its the errors in code.

At the risk of sounding flippant, by fixing the indicated PHP issues at the
locations quoted ("in (file) on line (number)"). These are pure PHP issues,
nothing to do with fcgi as such.
If you need more specific help, please show us the relevant PHP with each error
-- ensure you give us enough context by quoting sufficient PHP code surrounding
the actual problem line.
Cheers!

AFAICT, gethostbyname() only works for ipv4 addresses, so that one is
out - dns_get_record seems to be really for dns only, i.e. it does not
look at /etc/hosts. Is there a hph function that essentially just
calls getaddrinfo() ?

What code are you using to place the image? The function you mentioned
will do what you want, but you have to ask it to do it.

We use PHP defines for defining text in different languages. As far as I
know PHP files are supposed to be ASCII, not UTF-8 or something like that.
What I want to make is a conversion program that would convert a given UTF-8
file with the format
definetext1=this is a text in random UTF-8, probably arabic or similar text
definetext2=this is another text in random UTF-8, probably arabic or similar
text
into a file with the following defines
define('definetext1',chr(<t_value>).chr(<h_value>).chr(<i_value>)...<chr(<x_value>).chr(<t_value>));
define('definetext2,chr(<t_value>).chr(<h_value>).chr(<i_value>)...<chr(<x_value>).chr(<t_value>));
Not sure if I'm using the correct chr/ord function, but I hope the above is
clear enough to make clear what I'm looking for. Basically the output file
should be ascii and not contain any utf-8.
Any advise? The html_special_chars did not seem to work for Vietnamese text
I tried to convert, so something seems to get wrong with just reading an
array of strings and converting the strings and putting them in defines.

PHP files can contain utf-8, and in-fact is the preference of most
developers I know of.

Hi All,
I'm trying to get a custom shopping cart integrated with Google
Checkout. I've done it before with their older API, but it's changed a
lot since I last used it. The official documentation is a mix and match
of bits, and doesn't seem to follow any logical structure. The code
samples Google gives only seem to work on a PHP4 system, and bring up
countless errors on a PHP 5 system.
Has anyone integrated this successfully before, or know of any decent
PHP5 examples. I'm at my wits end, as I have to get this done today. So
far my efforts go to the sandbox area and just say:
Oops!
Error time: 2010-05-26T14:54:24 (Coordinated Universal Time)
(4878073251f78)
We were unable to process your request.
Which doesn't much help, as that value doesn't seem to be an error code
(I get zero results when I Google it)
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Ash
