Subject: [PHP] matching two form fields function?
I feel bad about asking a question like this, but I've spent quite a bit
of
time trying to track down what should be a simple answer and, no luck.
Anyway...
I'm trying to create a simple function that will match two form fields
against each other, e.g. Email equals Repeat Email. The following
function seems to work, however, I'm a little uncomfortable because I
don't
understand it. Specifically, I don't understand why returning $str1 by
itself (or $str2 by itself) makes it work.
-
/* checks two fields against each other to make sure they match and if
they
don't match it throws an error message into the $err_text array */
function CheckMatch($str1, $str2, $name)
{
global $err_text;
$match = ($str1 == $str2);
if ($match != true)
{
$err_text[] = $name must match.;
}
return $str1;
}
-
Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Jeff Oien
you're going about this the wrong way.
try it like this:
$result=mysql_query(select * from table where first='$first' and
last='$last' and address='$address');
if(mysql_num_rows($result)){
// error code
}
you want to keep the result sets that mysql gives back as small as
possible because they take up tons of resources.
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
$First_Name = $row['First_Name'];
$Last_Name = $row['Last_Name'];
$Address = $row['Address'];
if (($M_First_Name || $F_First_Name == $First_Name)
($M_Last_Name || $F_Last_Name == $Last_Name)
($Address1 == $Address)) {
echo
htmlheadtitleError/title/head
body bgcolor=\#FF\ text=\#00\ link=\#ff\
vlink=\#660099\
h3Error/h3
etc...

RE: [PHP] Matching Question
ok,
if i understand you correctly, you're taking data from a form and want to
check that it is not already in the database, right?
then why don't you include the submitted vars in the query like this:
$sql = SELECT First_Name, Last_Name, Address FROM $table_name
WHERE (Family_Position = 'H' or Family_Position = 'S') and first_name =
'$form_First_Name' and last_name='$form_last_name' and
address='$form_address';
$result = @mysql_query($sql,$connection) or die( Couldn't execute query.);
$number_of_matches = mysql_num_rows($result);
if ($number_of_matches 0)
{print bla bla;
else{
//submitted info is ok and can be inserted
}
please correct me if i missunderstood your question
regards

if(! $result = mysql_query($sql,$connection)) {
print(ERROR .mysql_errno().:
.mysql_error().br\n$sqlbr\n);
}
whta does your query look like?

Re: [PHP] Matching irregular cases
displayed, I want to change the search query so it stands out in the result list. I'm just using... ereg_replace($search_query, "b$search_query/b", $row[6]); ...at the moment, but it wont match results where the case doesn't match.
