Prepared statements aren't the only solution, a decent bit of filtering would 
work too. In the OPs example he only needed an int, so something like:

$val = intval($_POST['txt']);

Would do the trick. It just means that the value is safe (or at least in an 
expected range) for use elsewhere in the code, it may not necessarily only be 
restricted to a DB query.

Hello Negin,
$query1=select * from patient where id=.$_POST['txt'];
$result1=mysql_query($query1);
$rows=mysql_num_rows($result1);
Note: you *didn't* execute the query by calling mysql_query on it.

  my code is this:
$query1=select * from patient where id=.$_POST['txt'];
it works but
i think because i have error in next line:
*Warning*: mysql_num_rows() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean
given

$num2=Mysql_num_rows($result1);

i echoed $ query1 and the result was this=select * from patient where id=1
maybe  it can't convert $_POST['txt'] from String to integer and then it
can't get my $num
it is int in my mysql
how can i correct $query1?

Re: [PHP] simple question abt convert to integer

The problem is that if you set the post directly to the query it's available
to be an attach code in the field... (eg. DROP DATABASE;) it's called to
SQL injection...

what I mean on filtering:
always check the values in query eg.: $id = $_POST['id'];
if(is_numeric($id)){...}else{bad post}
and at other fields u can use eg. strstr() etc...

Hi,
I've a simply idea...
If you have integer in your mysql, don't use  at that field in the query...
Try this:

 $query1=select * from patient where id=.$id.;

You're not *thinking* about what you're doing. The above is silly. Think
about it: you're sending a string to MySQL. If $_POST['txt'] returns a
string which looks like the number 1, then

$query1 = select * from patient where id = $_POST[txt];

should suffice. If you like, test $_POST['txt'] first by echoing it.


 echo $query1;
 $result1=mysql_query($query1);

Ideally, you should be calling this function with an added connection
parameter. Like this:

$link = mysql_connect($connection_stuff);
$result1 = mysql_query($query1, $link);

It's not *necessary*, but advisable.

mysql_query() returns a resource object, unless there is a problem. If
there is a problem, then it returns FALSE. You can check what it returns
this way:

if (is_resource($result1))
print It's a resource!;
elseif ($result1 === FALSE)
print It's false!;
else
print I don't know what the heck it is!;

 
 echo $result1;

I don't know what you'll get from this echo if $result1 truly is a
resource. But if it's false, you won't get much. $result1 should be a
resource object, which means it's opaque. You can't know what's in it
unless you use a helper function like mysql_num_rows(), etc.

 $num2=Mysql_num_rows($result1);
 $num3=Mysql_num_fields($result1);
 
 still it has previous error
 
 Here is my output:select * from patient where id=1
 *Warning*: mysql_num_rows() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean
 given in
 
 *Warning*: mysql_num_fields() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean
 given in **

Your error messages clearly mean that 1) you're not getting a proper
resource object back from mysql_query(), or 2) you're somehow changing
$result1 into a boolean before passing it to these other functions. But
I suspect it's #1 above.

Please see the documentation for these functions at php.net. It may
even be available in your native language.

Problem solved succesfully after changed the query integer apostrofyless..
and printed the mysql_errno() and mysql_error()...

Remember:
-In the script languages as php the apostrofy ' or  or sg. like these means
the string marker...
-While ure developing show all error codes and messages...
-If ur query contains errors u'll not get the resource id to use just a
false boolean...
-..and always check u don't have empty variables... :D

[PHP] Simple question on simplexml

catalog
  book

  book
  book
...
  book
  ...
/catalog

Now I want to add another book,

where $string reads
  book
...
  book

Can I add this new entry to the catalog
using SimpleXML functions,
or do I have to introduce a DOMDocument?

As may be obvious, I am very new to PHP programming;

there is this:

http://php.net/manual/en/function.simplexml-element-addChild.php

which will allow adding of string data (so you won't be needing to
create the new SimpleXMLElement object as per your example below).

obviously you will have to first load tghe complete xml document
into simplexml using one of the following:

http://php.net/manual/en/function.simplexml-load-file.php

[PHP] Simple Question: Reading exec(locate) results into an array

2005-04-27 Thread Karl Fry
Hello all,

I'm sure this is very rudimentary, sorry if this sounds ignorant. 
I've only dabbled a bit in other languages and I'm working with a
small knowledge of php since I only use it on-and-off at my job.  I
scribbled up this script today at work off the top of my head for a
customer who was looking for a printout of my company's PEAR location.
 I wanted something quick and easy that would be adaptable to find
other items.  I was surprised it even worked since I haven't really
had a chance to dig into PHP yet:

?php
$temp = exec(which pear);
$temp2 = exec(locate pear);
echo which = $temp BRBR locate = $temp2;
?

When executing the commands directly within Unix, without the php script:

'which' yields 1 line: the path to the pear module for PHP

'locate' yields dozens of lines, paths to everything with 'pear' in it.

However, this is the printout when running the script from a browser
(same via command line) :

---
which = /usr/local/bin/pear 

locate = /usr/ports/www/pear-HTTP_Upload/pkg-descr
---

It's only printing out a single line for locate.  I'm assuming i'd
need to run a loop to read all the lines of locate from an array.

My question is: what sort of general syntax can I use to get the
results from locate stored in an array so it can be read out?

I don't need a script written for me; a general nudge in the right
direction or the right website would be incredibly helpful.  I've had
trouble finding anything relevant thus far.

Thanks!

locate = /usr/ports/www/pear-HTTP_Upload/pkg-descr

It's only printing out a single line for locate.  I'm assuming i'd
need to run a loop to read all the lines of locate from an array.
My question is: what sort of general syntax can I use to get the
results from locate stored in an array so it can be read out?
I don't need a script written for me; a general nudge in the right
direction or the right website would be incredibly helpful.  I've had
trouble finding anything relevant thus far.

[PHP] simple question

2005-01-31 Thread Pagongski

I have this function:

function supscript($texto)
{
   print(sup.$texto./sup);
}

But when i do:

print 2.supscript(3);

I get the 3 before the 2, how is that posible?

And:

print(supscript(3).2);

makes the 2 appear before the 3.
I am confused!

Thanks

probably because it calls the function before it calls the main print.

try return instead of print.

example:

function supScript($txt)
{
  return sup{$txt}/sup;
}

print 2 . supScript(3);

You shouldn't print a function that prints.. ;-)

You're trying to use the function supscript() as though it returned a value, 
it doesn't, it just prints something out directly.

Thank you so much, it was really stupid of me, basic mistake. I solved 
it differently, although your solution is miles away better than mine.
Heres what i did:

function supscript($texto)
{
global $supa;
$supa = sup.$texto./sup;
}
supscript(3);
print (2.$supa);

Complicated little thing, eh?
Thanks :-)

Your function should return the value, not print it. The way you have it 
now, the function must be ran before the original string can be printed. 
That's why you see the 3 before the 2.

function supscript($texto)
{ return sup{$texto}/sup; }

Your second example does not print the 2 before the 3. And the reason
your first example prints the 3 before the 2 is because the the print
inside the function prints first because the print that contains the
call to it can't print until it receives the return value form the
function. What you probably want is the following:

function supscript($texto)
{
   return sup.$texto./sup;
}

print 2.supscript(3);

Google for PostToHost and Rasmus Lerdorf if you want to use PHP to send
POST data (IE, to forge filling in a FORM)

You can also use JavaScript to create a FORM, I think, and then fill in
all the stuff, and then 'submit' it, if you trust JavaScript to work right
and want to learn JavaScript enough to get it working...

You can also make your FORMs use METHOD=GET to send the data as $_GET
instead of $_POST

I'm not sure if any of these address what you really want to know, but
they may help.

Better worded as if you want to pass values from one page to another and you 
want said values to be available in $_POST then yes, you *have* to use a 
form.

You could probably create hidden vars and on the href set the var values
and submit the form ( with form method defined as post of course).

You could create the javascript needed in a function built dynamically
setting the vars and simply call the function in the onclick method of
the href.  I think you will have to return false from the function so
that the link won't try to go to nowhere.

Don't name it?

Just remember that users can send _any_ variable they want through a 
form... blindly looping through and accepting $_POST as a whole is 
probably a bad idea.

Two ways:

1) If you don't need to have a name for your submit button, then
removing this element will stop it appearing in the $_POST array in
the first place. If all you want to do is change the text of the
submit button, use the value= attribute instead of name=.

2) If you DO need the name (because of JavaScript or something) then
just place a check in your foreach loop to ignore the $key called
go.

I am using Pdf-Php to create pdf docs. I have a long text line that wraps

however, it also outputs the new lines of the text in the source of the php

replace it will  or nothing and instead I getor two spaces.

Example:
 $Scope =

listed with summary
  data relating to the location such as the full mailing address, phone

$Scope = str_replace(\n, , $Scope);

Here I have a newline in the first line after the word known. I don't want
it to put the new line there. So I added the str_replace function, but I get
a double space instead of a single space.

echo $months[$your_month_number];

You could also use a combo of date() and mktime().

echo date('F',mktime(0,0,0,$your_month_number,15,2002);

2002-07-22 Thread John Holmes

 I have a site with all my movies and stuff stored in a database. And I
 have
 made a admin page where I can add, delete and update records. When I
add
 new
 records, I have made a listbox for the category (ex. action, comedy
etc.)
 so
 I dont have to write it every time I add a new record. But when I push
the
 update button and the data thats stored in the database is printed its
 printed just in a textarea. I know its possible to list the data in a
 listbox, but how do I get the right category selected for the movie I
 choose?

select name=whatever
option value=1 ?if($something==1) { echo selected; }
?One/option
option value=2 ?if($something==2) { echo selected; }
?Two/option
etc...
/select

Put it into a function and the possible values into an array to make it
easier...

2002-07-22 Thread Evan Nemerson

Okay im not sure i understand you- you want to create a page where it will 
suck an item out of a database, and use it to choose which item in a drop 
down menu should be selected?

If so, you can try something like

select name=catagory
option value=0?php if ($catagory == 0) {echo  selected}; 
?Action/option
option value=1?php if ($catagory == 1) {echo  selected}; 
?Comedy/option
option value=2?php if ($catagory == 2) {echo  selected}; 
?Etc./option
/select

RE: [PHP] Simple(?) Question

2001-12-05 Thread Martin Towell

if you want the browser to do it (as opposed to getting php to do it), then
you could use a hidden form, like:

body onload=document.forms[0].submit();
form action=... method=post
input type=hidden name=... value=...
... etc (all hidden fields) ...
/form

[PHP] Simple Question: PHP, MySQL, HTML Form and NULL

2001-12-04 Thread sgibbs

I have added a new column in an existing MYSQL table called event_date  -
type: DATE, NULL default.

This database field will be filled if and when the field in the HTML form is
complete.   When I added the new field to MySQL, it automatically assigned
NULL to all the existing records - which is what I wanted it to do.

I tested the HTML form, and when someone enters a date in the HTML form, the
date appears correctly in the table field.  Perfect.

Now my question: When the HTML form date field is left blank  and the form
is submitted, instead of putting NULL in the MySQL event_date field, I
found: -00-00.  Is this because the form is submitting an   to the
database field?

Is there some kind of if/then statement I should use so that when the field
is empty,  NULL will be entered into that table field?

Thank  you, Shawna

If memory serves me correctly, you need to test for an empty variable; if 
empty, assign it the value NULL (no quotes around it!)

I would suggest you implement this at the web server level. If using Apache,
use virtual hosting or perhaps a rewrite condition if needed.
If you must do this in PHP, and  you want to do is redirect the user to a
particular directory depending on the URL they type, then something like
this should work:

switch ($HTTP_HOST) {
case www.firstdomain.com:
header(Location: http://www.domainname.com/dir_01;);
break;
case www.seconddomain.com:
header(Location: http://www.domainname.com/dir_02;);

Try also mod_rewrite of apache. It is great for doing such things.

Visit apache.org and search docs for mod_rewrite or simply look into

You should date() do the work here. So just take the month and then
+1. Date() will take care the result is a valid date.
Below is some example...

$myDate = 2001-09-12;

if (ereg (([0-9]{4})-([0-9]{1,2})-([0-9]{1,2}), $myDate, $matches)) {

print (date (Y-m-d, mktime (0,0,0,$matches[2]+1, $matches[3], $matches[1])));
  } else {
print (No valid date!);

Subject: Re: [PHP] simple question...

 again.. one more thing How do I know how many days date differ? let's
 say '2001-09-01' and '2001-09-08'.
 Just looking for the fastest way of code to run.

The sample code below does pretty much what you want. BUT!!! It's
not a very nice solution...
Eg it cannot calculate a difference of more than one year :(
Furthermore I must point out that there is no error-checking in this
example. So if you _do_ want to use this, you'll have to add the
error-checking.
Sorry that it's not a really good solution, but due to lack of time,
I could not think of anything better right now...

--- PHP Example Code ---
PRE
?php

$dateOne = 2001-09-01;
$dateTwo = 2001-09-08;

ereg (([0-9]{4})-([0-9]{1,2})-([0-9]{1,2}), $dateOne, $match_1);
ereg (([0-9]{4})-([0-9]{1,2})-([0-9]{1,2}), $dateTwo, $match_2);

$stampOne = mktime (0,0,0,$match_1[2],$match_1[3],$match_1[1]);
$stampTwo = mktime (0,0,0,$match_2[2],$match_2[3],$match_2[1]);

$days_differ = date(z, ($stampTwo-$stampOne));
print (Days: $days_differ);

?

Well,

Here is a function that may be helpful.  The bad part is that I never 
finished it, so it only accepts dates in the MDY format...

BTW... If you already have a connection to MySQL, you could send simple 
queries to it to take advantage of its large amount of date 
functions.  This is probably not optimal though!

[PHP] Simple question (what's ISAPI ?)

2001-08-13 Thread Tribun

Hi folks.

Can someone tell me what ISAPI is?

I've requested how I could run PHP faster, if 20 USER's access my files at
the same time.

In my case, PHP run's the php.exe (ca. 5 MB) every time seperatly, and this
eats my win-resources!

Someone guides me to use it as an ISAPI module but WHAT is that? and HOW
can I do that under my win-operation system.

Thank's for any help!

 Hi folks.

It's microsoft's API for running software in IIS.

 I've requested how I could run PHP faster, if 20 USER's access my files at
 the same time.

Using ISAPI means that php stays alive while the server is alive, so there is 
no overhead in starting and closing down php.exe on each request. There is a 
perfomance benefit, although once the script is actually going the speed is 
the same. i.e. the speed benefit is a fixed amount of time per script. This 
means you'll notice the speedup much more on shorter scripts.

Now the bad news. The PHP ISAPI module is not very stable. For me, it won't 
work for more than a couple of requests without falling over. Others report 
more success.

If you want the speed benefit of a server API version, plus stability, change 
from IIS to Apache and run the Apache module version of PHP.

Cheers

You messed up the regular expression I gave you. The parenthesis need to go
in the first paramater, not the second. Otherwise it will replace an string
instead of a single character.

[PHP] Simple question about mail() limitations (if any :)

2001-03-21 Thread SED

Hi,

Before I try it myself and kill my server :), is it safe to send via mail()
function multiply e-mails like:

while (expr) {
mail ($to, $subject, $message);
}

Are there any limitation in this? (e.g. 100 mails? 100.000? 1.000.000?) If
so, is it possible to work around the limitation by using delay between
sending certain amount of mails?

[PHP] Simple question!!!

2001-03-02 Thread Ricardo D'Aguiar

Hi,
Imagine the following script:

HTML
TITLESome Title/TITLE
BODY
?php
$var = 1;
if ($var == 1) {
die ("I'm dead");
}
echo "I'm alive";
?
/BODY
/HTML

If I try to execute via Internet Explorer ("5.x") apparently every thing
works fine.
It shows the string "I'm dead".

But if I use the Netscape 4.7x, I get a blank screen.
When I view the Source Code ("HTML code in Netscape") it shows:

HTML
TITLESome Title/TITLE
BODY
I'm dead

Netscape can't render the page if its missing the /BODY and /HTML
tags in the end.
I already used 'return' end 'exit' functions but with the same result.

There is some configuration parameter to the PHP server to send the rest
of HTML code after exit the script or workaround?

Thanks,

Is it an option to just move the code below the /html tag?  Another 
option would be to echo the closing tags from within the conditional, prior 
to calling the die().  I believe output buffering can also be used to 
achieve what you want, but someone else will have to explain how (whether?) 
that can be done here.

I already thought that, but if I want to use the die function inside another
function that can be called anywhere in the script (inside a table or form) I've
possibly the same problem.

I believe output buffering can also be used to 
achieve what you want, but someone else will have to explain how (whether?)

That a good idea, I thinks it is a new feature of PHP 4.0.
