I think the other person's suggestion (hidden fields) was made so that the
original poster doesn't lose all other POST data (since he mentioned a
second POST request).

This method does not lose any post data as the whole $_POST array is
serialized. Then it is unserialized back to $_POST array at the second page.

It loses all new data:
<input type="hidden" name="post"
value="<?php echo htmlspecialchars(serialize($_POST)); ?>" />
<input type="text" name="this_will_be_lost" />
Because of this:
$_POST = unserialize(stripslashes($_POST['post']));
The method is fine, but it's no simpler than the other person's suggestion
when this specific scenario is considered. More logic is necessary to
prevent the loss of data.

Hello Charlie,

Just a thought. I'm guessing you are dumping this stuff to a database
for the final result. Why don't you create an intermediate table to
hold those fields (keeping track of the record ID in a hidden input
field), then re-read that data back on the validation page, then when
they submit it there, the changes are added to the real table.
My only thinking on this is to keep it simple rather than carrying
over a ton of hidden fields. It may not be the most efficient method,
but it'd work.
Cheers,
Leif Gregory

it was my understanding that the second page does not introduce any new
data. it was merely a confirmation page where the previous pages data
would be displayed.

I think array_merge will fix this:
$_POST = array_merge($_POST,unserialize(stripslashes($_POST['post'])));

Hello all,
I have two arrays as follows:
$x = array(3,4,6,8);
$y = array(10,20,40,10);
I need these arrays could be merged with '0' in between.
Result expected :
$x = array(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8);
$y = array(0,0,10,20,0,40,0,10);
Can anybody help me ?

Hi, I'm having difficulty trying to use the com extension in php5.
Here's the asp equivalent of what I'm trying to do.
Set comobj = Server.CreateObject("MyComlib.ComLib")
comobj.FieldValue = "somedata"
myval = comobj.Property("Record")
comobj.Property("Record") = "otherdata"
My php code looks like this:
$comobj = &new COM('MyComlib.ComLib'); // Works
$comobj->FieldValue = "somedata"; // Works
$myval = $comobj->Property("Record"); // Kind of
Works.....throws an exception if the value doesn't exist
$comobj->Property("Record") = "otherdata"; // Doesn't Work
I'm able to initialize the object and assign the FieldValue property
some data. The last line however doesn't work and instead gives me:
PHP Fatal error: Can't use method return value in write context
It makes sense to me why that wouldn't work in php, but for the life of
me I can't figure out what would make it work. I've tried with both the
latest beta and the latest snaps release of php5 with the same results.
I can't find any bug reports or mention of this happening to anyone, is
this something that maybe just can't be done in php?
Thanks,
--Dan--

Another thing that you can do is cast the variable to integer
$int = (int) $_POST['data'];

Hi, I'm currently working on a basic website creation script where I
want an index file created automaticaly within each new folder created.
My attempts at using copy() were foiled by safe-mode restrictions on my
account but after some research, I discovered this could be circumvented
with the use of move_uploaded_file() instead.
Now I'd like to figure out how I could use this to copy an existing
"index.php" file on the server to the newly created directories.
But can I use move_uploaded_file() if the file is already on the server?
If it needs to be an uploaded file, would uploading it once allow me to
copy it anytime afterwards?
I figured an even better solution could be to store the index file as a
blob in my MySQL db and have the script write that file to the newly
created dirs. Is this feasible (especialy with the safe-mode restrictions) ?
Any tips or examples would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
