Re: [PHP] Filtering out \ when a ' is user entered?

Hello, I'm pretty new to PHP but all I've seen of it so far I pretty much love! I've built a web log but when the user enters their data and they use ' or (and you know they will) php always shows it from the included web log as \' How can I filter out these backslashes so they don't appear on the final public viewable page? Thanks, Marcus -- Marcus James Christian - UNLIMITED - Multimedia Internet Design http://mjchristianunlimited.com You can use stripslashes($yourvar) for this. You can this behavior off by setting magic_quote_gpc to off in php.ini. Please not that if you'll try to insert this values to a database without the slashes, your queries will break, and they'll become security breaches. Think about this: $query = select * from users where username='$u_name'; and the user enters into the $u_name field: ' and '1'='1 Ouch... However, if those dashes were escaped with slashes, the query will execute and return no values. Never trust input from users, always check it. -- Meir Kriheli MKsoft computer systems 'There's someone in my head but it's not me - Pink Floyd -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [PHP] Anyone got the new Postgres 7.1 .rpms working?

Hi I am trying to compile the latest version of PHP to work with the new Postgres 7.1 on RedHat 6.2 I have installed the Postgres library, client and server .rpms without any problems. Then in the php file /ext/pgsql/php_pgsql.h I have changed the #include from postgres.h to postgres_fe.h as recommended. But my make is failing with the following error: php_pgsql.h:32: postgres_fe.h: No such file or directory php_pgsql.h:33: libpq-fe.h: No such file or directory php_pgsql.h:39: libpq/libpq-fs.h: No such file or directory So far as I can see, none of these files exist in my /usr tree. Is this a bug with the rpm or am I doing something dumb? My linux skills are basic so any help would be much appreciated Geoff Caplan I had the same problem, and solved it by creating a symlink name postgres.h to fostgres-fe.h, and it is working great. In ypur postgres include dir do: ln -s postgres-fe.h postgres.h Meir Kriheli MKsoft computer systems 'There's someone in my head but it's not me - Pink Floyd -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [PHP] NETSCAPE Screws QUERY STRING!!!!!!
You should use the urlencode() function.

I'm passing variables in a query string to my php pages. The variables whose values contain spaces due to multiple words are being passed correctly to the Internet Explorer browser and are working perfectly there. However, they are not working at al in NETSCAPE browser. What should i do? The Internet Explorer converts the spaces in a query string into it's hexadecimal value of "%20" automatically, but netscape is not doing so. It's not reading the space and thus not displaying the page at all and giving the HTTP error 400. This the link i make : a href="add_pro_over.php3?title=? echo $title ?" if $title contains "Project", it goes. But if it contains "Project One" ... it doesn't work in NETSCAPE. When on to the next page, this $title also has to be sent into the Database. what do i do? regards, T.

Most dbs use "localhost" for that, and the database username/password that
is configured into the database software/tables...
I know nothing of Interbase, but that's how all the others work...
If "localhost" doesn't work for the host, try "127.0.0.1"

hi,
I know it's slightly off topic but i hope you;ll forgive me.
i'm testing interbase because someone on this list mentioned it would be
a
good offline database.
Interbase ('firebird') wants to connect to the local server (i'm running
WAMP - Windows, Apache, MySQL, PHP), and interbase needs a username.
But its all local, not connected. So what should i tell interbase??
