Google produced http://www.phpfreaks.com/tutorials/61/0.php on a search for "Microsoft Access" php. Haven't read it.

SELECT DISTINCT filters out duplicate results from a query. Hope this helps. - Chris -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Session hijacking
Lots of great information in this thread as far as solutions go, but what I'm wondering is the concept behind how someone actually can hijack a session if register_globals is off. Should all this encryption and added protection be added to scripts with register_globals off and when steps are made to ensure (in a shared environment) that only your script can access the session files/db information? I seem to recall reading somewhere that a malicious user can manipulate cookies in a certain way to pass data directly into session variables, but the location I read this information escapes me. Any links or explanations would be much appreciated for designing security in future scripts. Thanks in advance. - Chris Wanstrath -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Login system
Bas, I think a suggested reading would be www.php.net/man. It's the PHP manual and can answer many, if not all, of your questions related to sessions. Yes, even questions like "what are the basic functions to make a session." I am usually not one of the people that get uptight about certain types of questions this list, but it is unbelievably easy to find the answer to your question. For instance, simply typing something like http://www.php.net/session will bring up a page titled "Session handling functions." You don't even need to know if that's a real website because the PHP site will automatically help you find what you're looking for, to a certain extent, when you enter keywords in after the /. Over the past few days there was an e-mail sent around with helpful PHP links. It probably wouldn't hurt to check there as well, as I'm guessing all the sites cover the very basic concepts and code you are requesting. - Chris Wanstrath On Fri, 2003-10-17 at 13:21, Bas wrote: > Okay, what are the very very basic functions to make a session? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Weird results for 2 lines of damn code
Hey Ryan,
Just did a straight copy and paste of your code into a php page on my
server.
CODE:
$ryan=strtotime ("now"); echo $ryan."";
echo strftime("%G-%m-%a %H:%M:%S", $ryan)."";
RESULT:
1066353488

Seems to work fine for me...This seems to be a deeper problem than your
code itself, probably having something to do with your computer or its
libraries. Reading through www.php.net/strftime there were a few
warnings about systems not conforming to ISO standards and doing quirky
things.

Re: [PHP] Sessions
You probably have transparent sessions turned on in your config. Turn that off and the session ID will disappear from the url.
