[PHP] Using mysqli_stmt_bind_param in a class - with variable parameters?
Hi all,
I would like to ask you if anyone of you ever did something like that or
might tell me how to do this.
I am currently switching from PHP4 to PHP5 and mySQL4 to mySQL5.
On account of this, I would like to use the improvements of ext/mysqli
instead of the old ext/mysql. So I need to do a rewrite on my database
class and as of this, I would like to add new functions such as prepared
statements, which are obviously supported by mysqli.
In fact, I would like to write a method within my class like this:
public function bindParam($str_types, $var_variable)
{
// Code
$mysqli_stmt-bind_param($str_types, $var_variable);
}
This method is supposed to be called like this ($result is an object of
that class)
$result-bindParam(s, $username);
$username = username;
That does work out already, but I would like to add more parameters like
this:
$result-bind_param(, $username, $email, $me, $you);
As I don't want to write a method with 50 optional parameters (I needed
to add one if I were to use 51 variables), I would like to solve this
problem dynamically. In fact, I tried to recall the bind_param method of
mysqli_stmt several times, but I have to call it only once as PHP
requires me to do this. (I get an error otherwise that the number of
variables isn't fitting to the prepared statement)
So I have to pass all parameters in one call.
I also tried eval() but that didn't really work out, either.
Now, my question is: What can I do to solve this problem? Is there any
elegant way of doing this?
Thanks in advance for any inspiration (and I hope I could make myself
clear).
Yours sincerely
Christian Heinrich

[PHP] Manual contradiction concerning string access?
Dear list,
today, I read in a german PHP forum about a problem with accessing an
offset of a string.
For example, if you have a variable like
$string = this is my string;
and you want to access the third character at once, I would suggest to use
$string{2}
so this will return the i.
The (german!) manual says about that:
(http://de.php.net/manual/de/language.types.string.php#language.types.string.substr)
*Anmerkung: * Für Abwärtskompatibilität können Sie für den selben
Zweck immer noch die Array-Klammern verwenden. Diese Syntax wird
jedoch seit PHP 4 missbilligt.
(Translation:)
*Note: *For downwards compatibility you may use the array brackets as
well. But as of PHP 4, this syntax is deprecated.
The english manual says: (Link:
http://de.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php#language.types.string.substr
)
*Note: * They may also be accessed using braces like $str{42} for the
same purpose. However, using square array-brackets is preferred
because the {braces} style is deprecated as of PHP 6.
I'm a little bit confused by now. Which style should I pick? I use PHP 4
and 5. Is there any other difference?
It would be great if someone could solve that contradiction within the
manual, too.
Thanks in advance.
Sincere regards
Christian Heinrich

[PHP] ChangeLog PHP 5.2.0 - Fileupload
Hey all, I've just examined the latest Change-Log for Version 5.2.0 (see http://www.php.net/ChangeLog-5.php for details). Seems to be fine, but I couldn't figure out one point. The changelog talks about Added RFC1867 fileupload processing hook. (Stefan E.) and I actually don't know what is meant by that. I've looked up that RFC but it appears to me to be about multipart/form-data only. I confess that I haven't read it completly, but it didn't really seem to be talking about what I wanted to know. So, could anyone be so kind to explain me what is meant by that and what its used for? Thanks in advance.

Re: [PHP] Mail and hotmail
Hi Peter,
RFC 2156 (http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2156.html) defines the importance
header as following:
importance = low / normal / high
Which means that you can either use the values low, normal or high
HTH,
Christian
The only one I do not know what to set it to is Importance. What values
are possible there? Is it the same as for X-priority?
Regards,
Peter

This email does not arrive to the Hotmail inbox.
If I send to a regular email, like Google Email (gmail) or a regular POP3

Anyone who has experienced this problem with sending emails to Hotmail?

how do you solve it?

you need to set your mail headers for the mail to be assumed valid,

Re: [PHP] security while building online store
Hi, most probably, things like XSS (Cross-Site-Scripting) and SQL-Injections might lead to a successfull hacking-attempt. If you try to write your own online store, make sure that you do NOT use register_globals! Try to google for XSS and SQL-Injections, there might be plenty of information on the web. Good night-wishes from Germany Christian Hi, I was checking on several php/mysql based on line store, free and commercial, but didn't find any that fits the best for us. Looks like, it would be the best to develop one. To make a online store that works fine - it shouldn't be such a big problem. To make a SECURE ad SAFE online store - that's the tough one form me. Before I even start building the store, can somebody point usual traps and problems, and security problems that usually happen, some advices, any advices?

Re: [PHP] using require
Hi, this depends on which connection-function you've used. If you've decided to use pg_pconnect(), there is just one connection. If you use pg_connect, everytime a new connection is established (and after finishing the script, it's closed though) HTH Christian hi all, i have my web site working something like this: in every php script i have require(auth.php). this auth.php has my connection to my postgresql server and database along with some other stuff i need for the user to be authenticated to my web site. when i log on, this auth.php connects to the dbserver and checks if my username and password are stored and then i go to a home page. my connection is stored in $dbh. what happens when i start moving through all these web pages (php scripts), each requires auth.php, with respect to the connection? is a new connection established for every web page i go into that uses my $dbh for querying purposes or is it the same connection i originally made when i first logged into the web site? any info will be highly appreciated!! thanx. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] NEWBIE: Can't Get My Loop Going. . .
Hello Jack,
you simply forgot an echo.
?php echo join(); ?
Also, have a look at print_r, which is very very useful for debugging.
