Other then always posting them in either $_POST or $_GET each time... But that can add up quite a bit on a complicated site though... Sessions in the way that most PHP developers think about them are an enemy of horizontal scalability, but if slightly alter the way you think about how your app works you can effectively remove the need for this type of session. Think about how much info you need to store between page requests that isn't already available to you some other way, in a database for example. Now consider that if your app needs to scale then chances are you'll end up with your session storage in a database. What do you gain by extracting that data from it's natural home in the database and putting it into another location in the database for the duration of a users visit? The one thing you do need to transfer from request to request is something to identify the logged in user. This is done in the same way sessions pass their identifier, in a cookie or in the URL. The only difference is that you need to encrypt it to make it a bit harder to fake. I generally include a timestamp in the encrypted cookie so I can impose a hard limit on the lifetime of a session. Normal rules for good encryption apply here, but bear in mind that every single request will need to decrypt it, and potentially encrypt it too so don't go overboard. Of course it's possible that the app you're working on will never need to scale beyond one machine, but I have been involved in scaling too many sites that weren't designed to do it to not plan for the possibility in everything I do now. Anyway, that's why I avoid using 'sessions' wherever possible - IMHO there are better ways to achieve the same goal for most applications. -Stut -- http://stut.net/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] question regarding type hinting parameters of php functions
Hi, i have tried a current snapshot of PHP 5.3 and have a question regarding type hinting. For example when using the function array_slice(array $array, int $offset, int $length) with a non-integer length parameter, what is the desired behavior? When calling array_slice($array, 0, (float)2); the resulting array is EMPTY. When using the right type array_slice($array, 0, (int)2); it works as expected. Shouldn't there be a notice/warning than just a wrong return value? In my case there is neither a warning nor does it work as expected. (perhaps it do something wrong?) Of course i can use int's, but in my opinion either a warning should be given or the function should gracefully handle the wrong typed parameter.

[PHP] Question about urlencode....
Hi, OK this one is a little embarrasing. I've been doing this for years and I just wonder if I'm wrong Say you have an exit link on your site, e.g. /leave.php, which accepts a url get arg. You use this page to record stats/whatever and then issue a Location: header to take the user to the correct location. Fairly standard yeah? Well I've been doing something like: $url = 'http://colin.guthr.ie/'; echo 'a href=/leave.php?url='.urlencode($url).'Click/a'; The logic in /leave.php does not need to call urldecode as it's done automatically by PHP. This has worked well for me in the browsers I've used (IE, FF etc.) Recently, though, when using google webmaster tools I noticed that I was getting a lot of 404's and this ultimately stemmed from the double urlencoding of these url paramaters whereby the % signs used to encode characters like / as %2F were encoded themselves leading to %252F. PHP would automatically urldecode this to %2F but that still leaves me with an encoded variable. Ugg. So my question is, is the google bot just getting it wrong? Is it reading the link and seeing a % and encoding it? Or is it finding a page somewhere randomly on the interweb which has incorrectly double encoded it and going from there? It doesn't give you an referrer info which makes tracking down such errors pretty tricky :( I could just call urldecode manually, but I'm curious as to why I should need to.

Re: [PHP] Question about urlencode....
Unless your URL is more complicated than your example, you shouldn't need to use urlencode() at all. You'd need to use it in a case where your string may contain characters that aren't valid in URLs like spaces and such: $baseurl = http://www.somesearchsite.com/search=;; $searchfor = Grace O'Mally; $searchurl = $baseurl . urlencode($searchfor); Since you set your URL explicitly and it's not something entered by a user, you shouldn't need it. Try that and see if it fixes your other problem with double encoding.. or at least gives a better clue as to where it's coming from.

Jason,
You've duplicated the names of your text boxes, so the second ones overwrite
the first. I'd guess you want to create arrays using input type='text'
size='5' name='txtPieces2[]' instead of input type='text' size='5'
name='txtPieces2'.

The reason for the 2 form elements, was because they need to be able
to tell it how many text boxes it needs. Sometimes, it could need 5
rows, sometimes 50... It depends on the particular job.
If you know of a better way to do it, Possibly a if/else setup? I'm
still at the early stages of thinking in this program.

[PHP] Question about php.ini file
Hi all: I've learned, much to my pleasure, that I can place a php.ini file in the root directory of my shared domain to allow some customization of the php settings. However, when I do this, I keep getting weird results. Some of the values that I change appear as I've asked them to be. Some appear to not change at all. And some have been changing to what appears to be default values for php. I'm wondering a few things here. First, my computer is Windows-based, but the server is Linux-based. Do I need to somehow convert the Windows text file line termination characters to their Linux variants? If so, how? Is it possible that I'm trying to change values beyond some upper limit which is causing php to use the default value? The main values that I'm trying to change are: post_max_size upload_max_filesize memory_limit max_execution_time max_input_time If anyone knows of upper limits for these, I'd appreciate learning about them. As always, any help you can send my way will be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Jon
Re: [PHP] Question about php.ini file
You must take in count that before php even gets to receive something, it all passes through the HTTP server (apache or something). for most of these settings there are equivalents in the config file of the server that you need to change accordingly. this might be the cause of the weird results. for example, if your limit for uploaded files is 10M in php but the server is set to accept max 5M, 5M will be the limit Jon Westcot wrote: Hi all: I've learned, much to my pleasure, that I can place a php.ini file in the root directory of my shared domain to allow some customization of the php settings.

Re: [PHP] Question about php.ini file
Hi Cristian: Thanks for the replies. In this case, what I've been noticing is that most of the values have gone DOWN (i.e., gotten smaller) after I placed my own php.ini file in place. For example, upload_max_filesize was 8M before I placed my file, but, afterwards, it was 2M! I'm trying to increase this size, not decrease it. Could it be the line-ending characters that are causing the problem? Could PHP be seeing the new file but not realizing how to process it, which would cause the values to flop over to their defaults?

Re: [PHP] Question about php.ini file
Hi Nathan: Another quick question regarding the use of the .htaccess file: If I'm trying to set something like post_max_size, which takes a shorthand value such as 16M in place of the full value, will using the php_value type of statement also accept the shorthand value, or do I need to place in the full value? Thanks again; this solution may be exactly what we need!

just putting in a quick ?PHP echo background: $date; ? in the

you have to configure apache to handle css files as php files.
also you have to send headers including content-type set to text/css
and then you can script your css

Here's another: http://sperling.com/examples/pcss/ As Zoltán suggested, but didn't elaborate, you can drop a .htaccess file into your root directory that contains: FilesMatch \.(css|style)$ SetHandler application/x-httpd-php /FilesMatch and then use ?php whatever you want ? inside the css file. This makes things easier when trying to change constants like colors, or dealing with the box-model problem, or rules that are dependant upon other rules; or really neat automatic image width/height determinations for images on the fly (think about that). :-) There are a lot of opportunities to add functionality to css that apparently has not been addressed in any documentation I've been able to find. I can't be the first down this street, but for certain it hasn't been traveled often.

Hi Everyone, I am attempting to get the logic of something figured out and I thought someone might be able to confirm what I'm thinking :) I want to be able to display something like an image of a turkey during the month of november from now until I'm dead. I was playing around with mktime and it showed very different time stamps for 11/1/07 and 11/1/08 so I can't set it to compare specifically to the timestamp.. But, would I be able to have it evaluate the string stored in php as 11/1/07 and create a timestamp to compare todays date to, and if it matches within the month, have it display the turkey? and if not, have it display a different graphic? I'm attempting to be able to make small changes to my website without having to remember to do them or change them :) I hope I've made enough sense that someone can point me in the right direction :) Thanks for looking! -- Jason Pruim Raoset Inc.

Errr... Never mind... Soon as I hit send I got a brain storm... I
just do this:
?PHP
$month = date('m');
if ($month == 11){
echo turkey;
}else{
echo No turkey;
}
?
Or something similar, I'll try and feather it out and see how it
works for multiple holidays :) (IE: Thanksgiving, Christmas, New

Question about time... Hi Everyone, I am attempting to get the logic of
something figured out and I thought someone might be able to confirm what I'm
thinking :) I want to be able to display something like an image of a turkey
during the month of november from now until I'm dead. I was playing around
with mktime and it showed very different time stamps for 11/1/07 and 11/1/08
so I can't set it to compare specifically to the timestamp.. But, would I be
able to have it evaluate the string stored in php as 11/1/07 and create a
timestamp to compare todays date to, and if it matches within the month, have
it display the turkey? and if not, have it display a different graphic? I'm
attempting to be able to make small changes to my website without having to
remember to do them or change them :) I hope I've made enough sense that
someone can point me in the right direction :) Thanks for looking! --

And how will the application know when you are dead?
When you stop paying for hosting, the application get's the idea when
it's bits go poof!
If anyone ever noticed, my web site (http://sperling.com) has a tree
on it that changes with the seasons. I use:
$dates = getdate();
$month = $dates['mon'];
$w = http://www.sperling.com/css/seasons/;;
switch( $month )
{
case 03: case 04: case 05:
$var = $w . spring.jpg;
break;
case 06: case 07: case 08 :
$var = $w . summer.jpg;
break;
case 09: case 10: case 11:
$var = $w . fall.jpg;
break;
case 12: case 01: case 02:
$var = $w . winter.jpg;
$break;
}
echo($var);
And this code is called from within my css file for a background
image. Yes, I use variables in css.
Cheers,
tedd

[PHP] Question about ereg_replace and urlencode...
Hello!
i am trying to make links clickable on a page. I would like to
urlencode the URL so that it is well passed to a redirect.php file,
which would do somethings and then also do a meta http refresh
I am trying to use a function like the following, but it doesn't work.
I would like to apply urlencode on the link that is there in $str, so
that i have the link to redirect.php?url=urlencoded str
With the following, 1 gets hardcoded in my link! How do i urlencode it please?
Any thoughts would help

That would be the bit where you use urlencode(1) to put the URL into the
URL. I think you want urlencode($str) instead.

Many thanks Stut
The problem is that the rest of the $str is actually a big post from a
blog, which will have many other text and info apart from the URL, and
i don't want to urlencode everything in there!

[PHP] question about making modules
Hey,
i've been trying alot to make php modules (php based.. not real
modules for php in c) but i can't get it working.
Here is a sample file:
?php
class moduletest
{
function text()
{
return moduletestbr /;
}
}
class test_moduletest extends moduletest
{
function text()
{
return test_moduletestbr /;
}
}
$test = new moduletest;
$test2 = new test_moduletest;
echo $test-text();
echo $test2-text();
?
Now what you get when running this file:
moduletest
test_moduletest
That's logical and not the problem
The issue is that i want the test_moduletest class to overwrite
functions in moduletest but without the need for me to call the class
again.
So the result i want with $test-text(); == test_moduletest
and $test must initialize the moduletest class!! not the test_moduletest class.
I want to use this as a (obvious) module system so that others can
extend the base class with more advanced features or improve existing
features by overwriting them.
i did found a place where this is being done: ADOdb Lite but i can't
find out how that script is doing it..
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated
Thanx,
Mark.

Dylan Barber wrote:
I am needing to provide back a fixed length file out of a shopping
cart system - I can create the file but does anybody have a simple
function to pad or truncate a string to a certain length?
Use sprintf() to format your string.
$len = 20 //the length you want
$str = 'abcde';
The following says to pad the string with the character x to a final
length of $len characters or to trim the string to $len characters. The
% is simply there to show that the argument is a formatting instruction.
The 'x says to use an x as the padding character (default is a space).
The s informs that we're performing this on a string, as opposed to a
number.
echo sprintf(%'x${len}.${len}s, $str);
xxxabcde
This one will add the padding to the end (note the minus sign):
echo sprintf(%-'x${len}.${len}s, $str);
abcdexxx
If you want the default space, use:
echo sprintf(%${len}.${len}s, $str);
abcde
Truncate:
$str = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz';
echo sprintf(%'x${len}.${len}s, $str);
abcdefghijklmnopqrst
You probably want to assign this to a variable so, instead of using
echo, do:
$padded = sprintf(%'x${len}.${len}s, $str);

[PHP] Question re virtual and scope of definitions
Hi, today I wanted to use virtual (an `include' wasn't an option) to get the output from another PHP script. I got errors about functions being already defined, which is true since in both scripts are functions of the same name. I always thought virtual makes an Apache subrequest which gives me a new PHP environment. But similar to include the definitions from script1 are also in the scope of script2. Is this the wanted behaviour? If so, how could I insert the output from another PHP script (I could fetch it with curl or wget but that's the last thing I would like to do)?.

[PHP] Question on Connecting to Microsoft SQL Server from PHP
All: I can't seem to connect to a SQL Server database with PHP. I have read the php.net documentation and so many other forums on the Internet that my eyes were literally blood shot. Today I thought I would try this route. I have PHP and Apache installed on my local machine. They work fine as I created another application with them (and MySQL) that worked as expected/designed. I want to connect to MS SQL Server 2000 that rests on another machine here at work. I can reach the tables and do whatever I want with them from my machine through SQL Query Analyzer. (The other machine runs a Windows Server. So I am trying to connect from one Windows box to another Windows box.) So I know that I can connect to the tables (and the machine that they rest on) from my machine.

Re: [PHP] Question on Connecting to Microsoft SQL Server from PHP
In my PHP page I have the following:
$sql = mssql_connect (xx.xx.xx.xx:, xx, xx);
$conn=mssql_select_db(xx, $sql);
Since both servers are within your local network, you should be able to
connect as follows:
$connection = mssql_connect('SERVERNAME','username','password') or die
('Cannot connect to server');
$database = mssql_select_db(my_database_name, $mssql_connection) or die
('DB selection failed');
Possible SQL Server issues:
Unless your internal network does not trust your other servers, you
should not have to use ip:port. Just use the servers actual name.
I would also put in the or die statements so you know if you are failing
connecting to the server or to the DB.
Also, make sure the username/password you are using to connect is setup in
MSSQL Server as a valid user for your database.
Possible PHP issues:
In your php.ini file make sure that extension=php_mssql.dll is uncommented
You should only have mssql.secure_connection = Off set to On if you are
trying to use NT Authentification.

Re: [PHP] Question on Connecting to Microsoft SQL Server from PHP
You may want to try using the Sybase drivers. MS basically bought Sybase and re-named it MS SQL and then broke a lot of stuff :-) One of the things they haven't broken (yet) is the basic Sybase driver functionality to send queries. For sure, ' versus won't make any difference. You may want to take out he : port info -- unless you've worked hard to set up the server on some weird port or something, the default should just work. Also see if there are any error messages available: in Apache error log in MS SQL error logs (good luck!) in mssql_error() or whatever it is in $php_errormsg or whatever it is (turn it on in php.ini) You might also want to try running ethereal or netstat or whatever it is that will tell you what traffic is happening across your ethernet...

Re: [PHP] Question about OO design
# [EMAIL PROTECTED] / 2007-04-09 15:29:01 -0700:
(I'm dealing with PHP4.)
class User
{
var id;
var name;
var email;
var balance;
var accrual;
var is_manager;
function User($user_id)
{
$this-id = $user_id;
$this-name = get_name();
// ...
$this-accrual = get_accrual();
}
function get_name()
{
// get name from db
$sql = ...;
$db = DB::singleton();
$db-execute($sql);
}
That static call on DB makes User tightly coupled to DB. This class
won't work without the other. Aggravated by the multiple calls.
Jochem cut the number down to 1 by doing the work in the constructor,
but that doesn't remove the dependency, just makes it easier to remove
eventually. The usual technique is to pass the database connection
to the constructor:
class User
{
function User($data_source, $user_id)
{
$this-ds = $data_source;
$this-id = $user_id;
$this-_fetch_data();
}
var $ds, $id;
function _fetch_data()
{
$this-ds-execute(...);
}
}
Now, the User class is completely independent of the DB class. You can
use User with any other class that has the same interface as DB.
Of course, the more abstraction you provide, the more versatility you
get, so you definitely don't want to have any SQL embedded in the
business logic or classes as generic as User. I'll leave the issue of
abstracting away data acquisition as an exercise for the reader.
What about the places where you instantiate the User class? You would
now need to change every
new User($id)
to at least
new User($dbconn, $id)
You can (and should) solve that by encapsulating the User instantiation.
The tight coupling problem applies to all classes, including User.
The industry standard technique to solve this is to use a creation or
factory method:
class UserFactory
{
function UserFactory($dbconn)
{
$this-dbconn = $dbconn;
}
var $dbconn;
function create($id)
{
return new User($this-dbconn, $id);
}
}
$uf = new UserFactory($dbconn);
...
$user = $uf-create($id);
And to prevent creating multiple instances of a single user (but you're
screwed in PHP anyway):
# NOTE: not bothering with references at all
class Users
{
function Users($factory)
{
$this-factory = $factory;
}
var $factory;
var $users = array();
function get($id)
{
if (!isset($this-users[$id])) {
$this-users[$id] = $this-factory-create($id);
}
return $this-users[$id];
}
}
$users = new Users($factory);
...
$user = $users-get($id);
The classes follow two simple principles: Don't Repeat Yourself and
Single Responsibility Principle (DRY, SRP). Sticking to them yields
tremendous benefits in my experience, as does No Hardwiring, Please.

Re: [PHP] Novice PHP Question - Listing Folder Contents
In addition to the suggestions made, check out opendir() too. It may be a little simpler for what you're doing. Not sure. Remember, the beauty of PHP is that there's almost always a fuction or two already made that do what you want. Even some semi-obscure stuff. So always scan through the function list before assuming you gotta do things the hard way. http://us.php.net/opendir -TG = = = Original message = = = I apologize in advance, however I know almost nothing about PHP - ( but I am trying to learn now)...

I am wondering if it is possible to create a PHP page that can:
1 - Get the contents of everything in its own folder at the same level (
just list sub folders filenames - not their contents)
2 - List/ display the contents on the same Web-page
Q: I'm sure this is most likely doable - but I sure could use some help -
any ideas how to do this?

[PHP] Question about OO design
Hello,
I'm working on a project now and I'd like to get some feedback on how to
implement a proper class (or two).
This is an application that records an employee's used vacation time.
There are two tables: (1) events, (2) users.
Users:
id (int)
name (varchar)
email (varchar)
balance (mediumint, stored in seconds) // this is the balance for
// the user after all events
// have been accounted for.
accrual (smallint, stored in seconds)
is_manager (bool)
Events:
id (int)
uid (int, users.id)
date (date)
duration (smallint, stored in seconds)
balance (smallint, stored in seconds) // this is the balance for
// the user at the time the
// event was added.
created (datetime)
Currently I have just one class called User that looks like this:
(I'm dealing with PHP4.)
class User
{
var id;
var name;
var email;
var balance;
var accrual;
var is_manager;
function User($user_id)
{
$this-id = $user_id;
$this-name = get_name();
// ...
$this-accrual = get_accrual();
}
function get_name()
{
// get name from db
$sql = ...;
$db = DB::singleton();
$db-execute($sql);
}
function get_email()
function get_accrual()
function is_manager()
{
// same as above more or less
}
function get_events()
{
// this function gets all the events for
// the current users and returns them
// as an array.
}
function add_event()
{
// this function adds a single event for
// the current user. it also recalculates
// the 'balance' for each event because
// of data display requirements.
}
function del_event($event_id)
{
// delete an event from the current user's
// events list based on $event_id.
}
}
As I started to write this and use it I get the feeling that there
should also be an Event class that is extended by the User class. Reason
being that each User object is a reference to the currently logged in
user, not anyone else. But if you're a manager you have the
responsibility to approve/deny and/or add/delete events for your
employees.
But with that in mind I've gone from a class that handles the currently
logged in user to one that handles the currently logged in user plus any
number of other users.
I guess I'm thinking of this in the same terms as db normalization. Ex:
I could add an extra price_level column to my products table each time I
need a new pricing level but it's probably better to create a separate
table called products_prices. It's slightly more complicated but it
would allow me to have as many pricing levels as I want without
modifying my databse or code.
I'd appreciate any kind of feedback on this. If I haven't been clear
with something please let me know.
Thanks,
Chris.

created (datetime)
Currently I have just one class called User that looks like this:
(I'm dealing with PHP4.)
class User
{
var id;
var name;
var email;
var balance;
var accrual;
var is_manager;
function User($user_id)
{
$this-id = $user_id;
$this-name = get_name();
// ...
$this-accrual = get_accrual();
}
function get_name()
{
// get name from db
$sql = ...;
$db = DB::singleton();
$db-execute($sql);
you probably only want one DB call to
populate the User object with all the relevant
user data at the point where the object is created.
function User($user_id)
{
// check the user id properly?
// see the getEmployee() example below for the
// reason for the array usage
if (is_array($user_id)) {
$this-id = $user_id['id'];
$this-load($user_id);
} else {
$this-id = $user_id;
$this-load();
}
}
function load($data = null)
{
if (!is_array($data) || empty($data)) {
// get user data from db
$sql = SELECT * FROM users WHERE id={$this-id};
// error checking?
$db = DB::singleton();
$db-execute($sql);
$data = $db-getRow();
}
$this-name = $data['name'];
$this-accrual = $data['accrual'];
$this-email= $data['email'];
/// etc
}
function get_email()
function get_accrual()
function is_manager()
{
// same as above more or less
}
function get_events()
{
// this function gets all the events for
// the current users and returns them
// as an array.
}
function add_event()
{
// this function adds a single event for
// the current user. it also recalculates
// the 'balance' for each event because
// of data display requirements.
}
function del_event($event_id)
{
// delete an event from the current user's
// events list based on $event_id.
}
}
As I started to write this and use it I get the feeling that there
should also be an Event class that is extended by the User class. Reason
if you use an Event class then it should just represent an Event (and
a User object would [probably] contain an array of Event objects).
AFAICT there is no good reason to have Event extend User.
being that each User object is a reference to the currently logged in
user, not anyone else.
the User class is merely a representation of *a* user - you can
use an instance for the currently logged in user, but that doesn't stop you
from using the same class to model the collection of users that fall under
a given manager.
But if you're a manager you have the
responsibility to approve/deny and/or add/delete events for your
employees.
// you might need to f around with returning references here,
// (I can never quite get that right without a bit of trial and error in php4)
function getEmployees()
{
// consider caching the result?
$emps = array();
if ($this-is_manager) {
// get user data from db
$sql = SELECT * FROM users WHERE manager_id={$this-id};
// error checking?
$db = DB::singleton();
$db-execute($sql);
while ($data = $db-getRow())
$emps[] = new User($data);
}
return $emps;
}
But with that in mind I've gone from a class that handles the currently
logged in user to one that handles the currently logged in user plus any
number of other users.
I guess I'm thinking of this in the same terms as db normalization. Ex:
I could add an extra price_level column to my products table each

Ok. I see what you're saying. If I populate all that data during the
constructor why would I ever call the function again right?

How do I reference a User object within the $emps array?
Is it like $emps[0]-accrual ?
Thanks,

you could refresh the data if needed - but basically the idea is
to cut down the user data grab into a single sql call.

that's one way, you might consider keying the emps array on
the user id for easier retrieval (see above), which would allow
you to quickly reference the correct employee User object when
a manager performs an action on a given emp.
or when a manager edits multiple employees:
$manager = new User($_SESSION['userid']);
$emps= $manager-getEmployees(); // think about using references here?
foreach ($emps as $id = $emp) {
if (isset($_POST['emps'][$id])) {
// just some vague 'update' concept/action thingummy
$emp-doSomeUpdateStuff($_POST['emps'][$id]);
$emp-saveUpdateStuffToDB();
}
}
or a different tack
foreach ($_POST['emps'] as $id = $stuff)) {
$manager-updateEmpStuff($id, $stuff);
}
// where updateEmpStuff does something like
User {
function updateEmpStuff($id, $stuff) {
if ($this-is_manager) {
// don't forget to cache the emps array??
// don't forget the use of references??
$emps = $this0getEmployees();
if (isset($emps[$id])) {
// again a vague thingummy representing
something
// a manager might [need to be able to] do.
$emps[$id]-managerUpdatesStuff($stuff);
}
}
}
}
Thanks,
Chris.

[PHP] Question on Portfoilo's
So i've been meaning to start a portfolio of some code, so that when I apply for a job, and they want code samples, I have something to show them. Unfortunately, at this time, most of my work is inside of a much larger application, or in code that belongs to my current employer (not a php job, just misc. things i've made). What kind of things do you guys have in your portfolio's/code samples that your provide to a potential employer?

[PHP] Question about form submitting
Hi, Sorry for the lame question, but i didn't find a satisfactory answer in the web. I have this subscribe form (subscribe.php) and on submit i have to check for errors: a) password and password confirmation mismatch; b) missing filled fields c) check e-mail validity d) etc. My question is how do i make all these possibilities show a different error message without leaving subscribe.php ? I know that the for action must be subscribe.php, from there i'm blind as a bat. Any help would be appreciated. Warm Regards -- :wq!

Re: [PHP] Question about form submitting
Not true. You can submit the form back to itself as many times as required by making the form action $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] and checking for various sequences and outputting different html in each case.
