Re: [PHP] Another newbie
Take a close look at OO programming. Class objects are great for reusing code and making cleaner code. The art of designing code is a mastered art which is why my white board is always messy ;) . Never the less, oject oriented programming is definately the way to go. Chapter 6 in the PHP and MySQL Web Development book has great real world examples on how class objects relate to one another.

[PHP] PHP and Macromedia Flash
Does anyone know if you can dynamically update a flash swf file with a PHP script ? For instance in menu navigation I was thinking of using a flash object to display an interactive menu and have in my main class a way to update the links or buttons from page to page. Thanks in advance, Dan

Re: [PHP] Newbie and learning
PHP is, arguably, the better way to go when developing an ecomm solution. This list is full of very intelligent programmers that will help or direct you to the proper documentation. If you use $_GET you will be able to pass value pairs in the url. Make sure that in your data check script that you specifically assign variables to your $_GET in order to prevent malicious use. $HTTP_POST_VARS is probably a better way to go here. Its cross platform and will almost guarantee that you will be able to use on any server. $HTTP_POST_VARS['name']; $HTTP_POST_VARS['email']; Good Luck! -Dan - Original Message - From: Larry R. Sieting [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 27, 2003 5:22 PM Subject: [PHP] Newbie and learning Hello All, I have been reading and digesting information from this list for about two weeks now. I am doing some work and testing (both) and learning php on the way. Now I have seen several replies about using $_GET[] and $_POST[] and that if you ARE sending variables using the URL you _should_ use $_GET[] whereas if you are _not_ passing variables in the URL you should use $_POST[]. Is this correct? I just want to make sure I have it in my mind so that when I start passing info via url I use the right method. I ask this because I have a friend that wants to have me setup an e-commerce site for him. I am trying to decide if I should use ASP (gasp) or PHP (yeah). It will be a db driven site which will have images in the db and probably multiple tables with inner and outer joins and search systems. Yes, I have the 4000+ (pdf) page manual on my system and refer to it and read sections of it at a time (chunk). And I hope that I will be able to answer most of my own questions there or in other resources before I have to submit to the list. Thanks. Larry R.

[PHP] Passing Array to object
Hello,
I am developing a site that uses classes to reuse code and objects.
I have in my main class a
function SetLinks($newlinks) {
$this-links = $newlinks;
}
And another function that displays them in the same class main {
I have another file called index.php that basically just passes attributes to the main
class and the main class displays them.
Im having a bit of trouble passing an array to the object
in the index.php
I create new.
$index = new main();
$index-SetLink = array ( 'Link1'= 'link1.php',
. );
When I run I recieve Variable passed to each() is not an array or object
so I tried this
$index-SetLink($newlink = array('link1'= ...);
same error message. I was wondering if someone could shed some light on what Im doing
wrong.
Thanks
Daniel

Re: [PHP] Passing Array to object
I remember seeing somewhere that you could only pass a single deminsional
Array to a class. But I cant even get this one deminsional to work. If I
place the links inside the main class and call it an attribute it works
fine.
var $newlinks = array (...)'
When I var_dump($myarray) I recieve the output as expected. For some

hmmm okay
cause list works by assigning elements in order from an array
each iterates thru each element in a list so you want to pass both
elements
at the same time so you need to pass an array to get the effect your
looking
for
ie $name being from the first array element, and $url being from the
second
array element...
so I am thinking you wish to assign urls and names to a single array you
will want to make it a multidimensional array

Having a bit of trouble with my forms returnin 1 in the form fields accept the data

Re: [PHP] isset()
Why is my script autopopulating a 1 in the field names and not the orginal
values ?
Is it something to do with this statement ?
$output_fname = isset($HTTP_POST_VARS['fname']);
Im declaring the var and using it in value field in my form. I know that I
missing something. Its returning true when value is entered or when its not
and placing a nice 1 in every field of my form.
Im thinking
$output_fname = isset($HTTP_POST_VARS['fname']) ? $HTTP_POST_VARS['fname']
is the answer and ive tried for several hours to fix it.

Daniel,
Rather than sending them to a new page to validate the form and then
sending them back if a field is invalid, do the error checking from the
same script.
Here's an example, a bit simple but just to give you an idea.
For a better explanation, you should read this article which elaborates
on this method:
http://www.zend.com/zend/spotlight/form-pro-php4.php
?php
if($HTTP_POST_VARS){
// check for required fields
if(!HTTP_POST_VARS['name'] || !HTTP_POST_VARS['email'])
$error_message = 'You did not provide all required fields'
}
// any other error checking you want to do
?
?php
// if error, print out error message
if($error_message){
echo $error_message;
}
?
FORM METHOD=post ACTION=?php echo $PHP_SELF ?
INPUT TYPE=text NAME=name SIZE=20 VALUE=?php echo
$HTTP_POST_VARS['name'] ?

[PHP] Passing values back to form
Im new to PHP coming from a background in perl devlopement. I have a form that a user can fill out. On submit the values are iterated over a foreach to check for empty(). If the an emtyp $key is found then it passes an error string to my error function. I have 2 php files, one that is the Form called profile.php and one that processes the values from the form, called profileprocess.php. There are multiple functions in profileprocess.php. When the header function is called in the profileprocess.php it takes you back to the profile.php with empty values in the fields. I was wandering if their is a way, (which Im sure their is) to pass back all the data that was correctly entered back to the form, and then a nice little message that displays the error of the data that needs to be checked by the user. I could do this a number of ways, but the key is not writing code that you dont have to. Its just smarter programming. Any ideas, or functions I could read on in the rtFM manual is greatly appreciated. I appreciate you looking at this problem... Thanks in advance, Daniel

You can register both the filled and empty values in the session after processing them. Then you can header() redirect normally with no fuss and extract the values from the session file on the form page. And here's a tip. Set up some CSS in a switch() statement to highlight the form fields that are left blank. This makes for a nice user interface, esspecially on larger forms.

[PHP] session_start questions.
Questions, Questions, Questions. Where do I start in understanding how this function works. Ive read the document multiple times, and I am having a bit of trouble figuring out how this function works. I know that you can take session data and hold it somewhere for a user and use that data throughout php web pages. I am wandering, where is this data held and how to do you reference it ? Is their a more detailed explanantion of session's ? If their is not, once I get this, I will write one for people like me. You know, Sessions for Dummies ;o) Never the less, how do you set a session name for a specific user and hold that data for processing? Is this magic from somewhere or do you specifically name a session for every user ? What about security implications ? I will be running all my forms through secured protocol so hopefully their wont be any hijacking going on... Sorry for being a pain.
[PHP] Calling HTML pages
I was looking for a function that will take you to a html page. For instance.

if the field is empty then

function display_error ($err) {
echo $err; # I need to redirect or automatically go to the previous page.
}
Is their a PHP function already written that does this ?

[PHP] header function problem
I am using a header function to take a user back to a form if they have mistyped or
entered in data that is not desirable.
I have multiple functions that Ive written but the one that pertains to this situation
is listed
function check_data () {
if (!empty($value)) {
go_back( blah );
}
}
function go_back($err) {
header(Location: http://webserver/form.htm;);
}
When calling this, I recieved a 403 Forbidden error message. Obviously Im doing
something wrong... Or I have a permissions issue. I would not think its a

Should I ONLY be using

Are you wanting the $_POST['nums1'] to have only numbers, -, ., #, :
Is this what you are trying to match. if so, try this.
if ( preg_match(/[^0-9\#\:\.\-]/, $_POST['nums1']) ) {
throw error()
}
This will match anything that is not a number or one of the other special
chars that are in the pattern to be matched.
Therefor, if it does find anything that is not in the pattern to be
matched
it will return true and then it will enter the if statement instead of
skipping over it.

[PHP] preg_match array question
Hey,
Im trying to use preg_match to validate numbers in multiple fields. I can check one
field but Im having trouble checking multiple fields.
preg_match ( '(foo)' , $_POST[num1] ); - That works fine. but I need to check
multiple fields.
I thought I would build an array with the POST data like this...
$num = array ($_POST[num1],
($_POST[num2]); There are more than that...
and then use
preg_match ('(foo)', $num) ; $num should point to my array, but that doesnt work. I
get a warning message.. and it doesnt check the first num1 in the array.
Im certain that Its my code, and I wanted to get some input on what Im doing wrong.
-Dan
Re: [PHP] preg_match array question
The problem is, that I have multiple fields and what I am trying to do is
check each field to make sure I get the data that I need and not some crap,
like letters in a number field or a script tag in a field. Things of this
sort. The foreach loop wont work for me in this instance because Im
checking for proper input.
I can write multiple elseif statements to check each field but alas, this is
not optimal. I may go ahead and write this to get it done and then go back
and put it to the write board

Try this:
Let say you have these three fields in your form:
INPUT TYPE=text VALUE=num[1]
INPUT TYPE=text VALUE=num[2]
INPUT TYPE=text VALUE=num[3]
then use the following to iterate through each field:
foreach($_POST['num'] as $key = $value){
preg_match ( '(foo)' , $_POST[num][$key] );
}
or you can also try this:
$c = count($num);
for($i; $i $c; $i++){
preg_match ( '(foo)' , $_POST[num][$i] );
}
this should get you started.

Re: [PHP] preg_match array question
perhaps I am misunderstanding... I have snipit of my foreach. I have a
preg_match that checks for a valid email address. basically it just checks
for an @ and a . When I place this in my loop all of the keys are
evaluated, so hence the name key is evaluated and thrown error because of
the check.
To remedy this problem I took it out of the loop and it worked fine.
Ultimately I would love to keep it in the loop and throw checks for certain
fields, but syntaxtually it doesnt work for me. Any Suggestions ?
foreach ($_POST as $key=$value) { # Begin Foreach loop
if (empty($value)) { # Begin If
echo $key :: Missing Databr/;
if (!preg_match('/([a-z0-9\-\.\#\:[EMAIL PROTECTED])/i',
$_POST[eaddy]))
{echo $_POST[eaddy], is not a valid address.br/; }
} # End if

The problem is, that I have multiple fields and what I am trying to do
is
check each field to make sure I get the data that I need and not some
crap,
like letters in a number field or a script tag in a field. Things of
this
sort. The foreach loop wont work for me in this instance because Im
checking for proper input.
I can write multiple elseif statements to check each field but alas,
this is
not optimal. I may go ahead and write this to get it done and then go
back
and put it to the write board

Re: [PHP] preg_match array question
OH man, thats the ticket. I didnt even think about checking the
$_POST[email] == email and then running the preg_match. I assumed that
it evaluate the end of the preg_match statement and see $_POST[email]
I appreciate your time...
Sincerely,
Dan

Subject: Re: [PHP] preg_match array question
perhaps I am misunderstanding... I have snipit of my foreach. I have a
preg_match that checks for a valid email address. basically it just
checks
for an @ and a . When I place this in my loop all of the keys are
evaluated, so hence the name key is evaluated and thrown error because
of
the check.
To remedy this problem I took it out of the loop and it worked fine.
Ultimately I would love to keep it in the loop and throw checks for
certain
fields, but syntaxtually it doesnt work for me. Any Suggestions ?
foreach ($_POST as $key=$value) { # Begin Foreach loop
if (empty($value)) { # Begin If
echo $key :: Missing Databr/;
if (!preg_match('/([a-z0-9\-\.\#\:[EMAIL PROTECTED])/i',
$_POST[eaddy]))
{echo $_POST[eaddy], is not a valid address.br/; }
} # End if
else { echo $key, -Okbr/;}
} # End Foreach

Not sure if I'm misunderstanding, but I know that foreach() will do
this.
