Hi Lab,
I normally use code of the following format, which I think is quite neat:
//Note that you do not need curely brackets in an "if" statement is there is
only one line
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST')
$add = $HTTP_POST_VARS['textbox'];
if ($add == 'Hello')
do something
//It is however recommended that you do the following in order to ensure
that a user does not try to use malicious code in their input
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST')
$add = clean($HTTP_POST_VARS['textbox'], 20);;
if ($add == 'Hello')
do something
where clean() is a function defined in an include as follows:
function clean($input, $maxlength)
{
$input = substr($input, 0, $maxlength);
$input = EscapeShellCmd($input);
return ($input);
}
Hope that helps.
Regards,
Andy
