There's two general ways to do data validation: client-side and server-side. PHP is server-side. JavaScript is client-side. With PHP, you allow the user to enter any data in the textbox, then code in logic to check for illegal characters (e.g. no letters in a textbox for one's phone number). Of course you must also code a nice response to let the user know when the data is found to be illegal, repost the form, etc. With JavaScript, you can do data validation as they press the submit button, or even disallow illegal characters as they type in a textbox. The response is far more immediate and thus far more effective, IMHO. Of course, if the user's web browser isn't running JavaScript, bad data may still slip through. Then you must use PHP and do server-side data validation. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Session trubles
PHP Version: 4.2.2
Hi
I had a problem with my session name.
In the php.ini, was set the default name PHPSESSID from the default
installation. Now i have the problem, that i use the name audience for
my webapplikations with PHPope (http://www.phpope.org)
I Set the name in the script with the following code:
session_name(audience);
session_set_cookie_params(time()+999, /, $config[default][cookiedomain]);
session_cache_limiter('no_cache');
session_start();
Now i had the problem, that i lost the session after login. The server
forgave me a new session which called PHPSESSID and not audience :-(
Now i have changed the value session.name in my php.ini to audience and it
works!
What's the problem here? A bug?
I have enabled session.auto_start.

Re: [PHP] easy and simple way to read xml into array
Well, I've, and I also have to say that the XML-support in PHP lacks any usability I am sorry to say this but the above comments indicates a lack of understanding about xml, xml parsing and PHP. The php xml parser is based on expat. expat was written by james clark a person who worked on some of the XML specs. 2 pages code later I still cannot get it to work, and the manual is pretty thin on this chapter... That's because the manual assumes you have the background on xml, maybe you might want to head off to w3schools etc to get this. Have you looked at the articles on phpbuilder on xml parsing with php? But what seems to happen is that the character data handler is called to randomly number of times, and if I output the current element every time it gets called I get the following output for the xml above: according to the specs the character data handler may be called more than once for each start element.

RE: [PHP] stepping through alphabet
Yes, I found that the loop was written kind of backwards and would create a
never ending loop. I never thought to try setting $letter='A' before. I
didn't think you could loop through the Alphabet like that. But I did a
little changing to your loop and it works fine like this now:
$letter='A';
for($i=0;$i=25;$i++){
echo $letter++. ;

cleaner to me. Here is my final function now.

You could also do this, which would probably be more universal:

for( $i = 65; $i = 90; $i++ ) {

They are not worried about anyone scamming them, thinking that as many people would vote sixty times for Blue as would vote sixty times for Green. It wouldn't have to be secure, wouldn't have to support a bunch of cookies, wouldn't have to validate users, etc. etc. They don't have any money, so I don't have any time.

RE: [PHP] stepping through alphabet
On 19 November 2003 14:25, Jay Blanchard contributed these pearls of wisdom:
[snip]
for ($letter = 'A'; $letter++; $letter = 'Z')
echo a
href=\?action=alphabetletter=$letter\$letter/a\n;
[/snip]
I tested this and found two small problems. The code works if
you do this (I was myself amazed that letters would increment)
Well, it's mentioned (briefly) in the manual
(http://uk.php.net/manual/en/language.operators.increment.php), so maybe you
shouldn't be so amazed.
for($letter = 'A'; $letter 'Z'; $letter++){
echo $letter . \n;
}
The problem seems to be that you cannot use ='Z' for some
reason, as the array becomes quite lengthy, as if 'Z' doesn't
work properly.
The problem is not that 'Z' doesn't work properly, but that that PHP's
idea of properly is different from yours: 'Z'+1 is defined to be 'AA' (it
says that in the manual, too!), so your loop has to be:
for($letter = 'A'; $letter = 'AA'; $letter++){
echo $letter . \n;
}
Cheers!

OK, my bad -- I let my fingers do the talking without proper monitoring from
my brain. This is what I actually use in more than a few scripts:
for ($c='A'; $c!='AA'; $c++):
echo $c;
endfor;
I just forgot to change the comparison from = to !=
I guess this behaviour of ++ is a two-edged sword -- sometimes it's very
useful, but in this instance it's a bit of a pain in the neck!

[PHP] mailing multilple addresses...?
Below is some code, I've written, where I'm trying to do the following...
1. Display a text box, for a user to enter a number of email addresses,
seperated by a comma.
2. take that value, split it based on the comma and place that vlaue into
an array.
3. Count the No of elements in the array
4. with a while loop, send to each address in turn
5. Display each successful address on screen afterwards.
I think my prob', is in my use of the array, and I can't seem to fathom
why...?
Can anyone shed any light on this one for me... I'm a real fan of figuring
out this stuff on my own, but time is against me today...

Re: [PHP] Memory Size Help Please
Hi,
Jay's comment was a fair one. It's not always possible to help without
full info.
You could try writing your data directly to disk instead of keeping them
in memory as your code seems to be doing. In that case your regex
function might need to go into the character data handler.

Re: [PHP] Memory Size Help Please
* and then Raditha Dissanayake declared Hi, Jay's comment was a fair one. It's not always possible to help without full info. I beg to differ, the point was valid but the manner unfriendly at best. You could try writing your data directly to disk instead of keeping them in memory as your code seems to be doing. In that case your regex function might need to go into the character data handler.

[PHP] String matching for sample code doesn't work....
Hi Everyone!
I'm not really sure why does this simple script not work. When I run
the code, the loop kept going until it timed out. I'll enclose the simple
code here...
--snip--
$res_str = Dog NameWhoof/Dog Name![CDATA[Whose Dog is that??]];
for ($i=0;$i100;$i++)
{
if (substr($res_str, $i, 9) == ![CDATA[)
{
echo You got it;
}
}
--snip--
This one should work but it doesn't, but I noticed that it does work if
I use this instead...
--snip--
if (substr($res_str, $i, 7) == [CDATA[)
--snip--
So, the problem had to do with either the '' character or the '!'
character that doesn't match. I thought maybe an escape character would
work, like '\' but it doesn't do anything. So, anyone know how to fix that
problem?
Thanks,
Scott F.

[PHP] php and java
Ok, First, let me say, I have looked at the manual and searched the past posts but still can't get this to work. I also should say that this is my first time trying to bridge php and java so this may be a stupid questionI have a java class(DateUtil) in a package (testphp). I then took the package and created a jar file from it and put the location of the jar file in my php.ini file with the java settings. In my php code, this code works fine: $java = new Java(testphp); $currentTime=$java-currentTimeMillis(); echo The Time is:. $currentTime; but if I try to access my class, I get errors that it can't instantiate non-existent class: $mydate=new DateUtil(testphp); Am I doing something blatantly wrong?

[PHP] Comparing 2 strings.
I currently store text from a MySQL blob field in a string $orig_text. I need to compare that with something someone type in from a form stored in $new_text. How would I go about comparing them to see if they are different or exactly the same? strcmp doesn't look like it will handle this too well. I can't go by the number of characters in the string either. Someone may be able to use new words but keep the length of the string the same.

[PHP] PHP syntax error or javascript mistake?
Greetings: I can't decide if my problem is PHP or Javascript, but I've been staring at this line of code for too long without being able to see why it's behaving the way it is I'm trying to open a new window on top of the current window, and it does that, but the original (bottom) window changes to read Object Window ... I can get back to the original with the Back button but of course don't want to ask that of the user ... I simply want a new window to appear on top of the original, after which the user can close the top window and be back where he started what the heck am I doing wrong? Oh, here's the code: echo a href='javascript:window.open(\$fg_id\,\\,\height=400,width=300,left=80,top=80,scrollbars=1\)'; Thanks VERY much in advance ...

Also, I have my sample video created in a quicktime .mov format also and avi format and an mp4 format. How can I get this converted to a asf or wmv format? Any tips?

I wanted to know how do I return two parameters within a function. I'm
not having much luck with it. I kept getting errors...

{
global $res_str;
$strResponse_XML = substr($res_str, 0, 100);
$strResponse_HTML = substr($res_str, 200, 100);
return $strResponse_XML,$strResponse_HTML;
}

That's because it doesn't work like that. :)
Three solutions:
1. pass a value by reference i.e. function myfunction($value) {} AND
return something
2. don't return anything and pass both values by reference
3. stick both values in an array and return the array (easiest)
