I have a webpage which allows people to log in and make selections
with radio buttons and hit SUBMIT and saves the data from those
radio buttons to a mySQL database.
However, I'm finding that I also need the ability to allow a user to
log back in at a later date (or even on a different computer), and
pull up that survey again,
with each of the 50-something radio-buttons back in the positions in
which they were last saved.
Surely there's a best-case-method for doing this type of thing
(saving large numbers of radio-button-group settings to mySQL and
pulling them back
again later). Any advice is greatly appreciated. Perhaps there's a
jQuery-way to retrieve all the radio-button group settings as an
array and save it and pull it back again?
Or perhaps a PHP-specific method - - - I'm fine with either.
Rob:
I don't know the best way, but this is the way I do it.
My database is relational. Each user has an unique ID as well as each
question has a unique ID and the answer to each question is the one
of several different choices (1 to whatever).
Each answer is recorded in the database as a *separate* record that
contains the user ID, question ID and their choice. A record might
look like this:
Table: answers
Fields: user_id, question_id, answer
Values: 34,115,5
That's where 34 is the user's ID, 115 is the question's ID, and 5 is
the user's choice.
Then whenever you wanted to pull out and show the user (user 34 for
example) what they picked, just select all the records that have a
user ID of 34 and sort them by question ID and show the selections
the user made.
If you have different test, then add a unique test_id field and make
the question_id non-unique. An example might be:
Table: answers
Fields: user_id, test_id, question_id, answer
Values: 34,20,11,5
That's where 34 is the user's ID, 20 is the test's ID, 11 is the
question's ID, and 5 is the user's choice.
Then you could pull out all records that have the same user ID and
test ID and show the questions and answers associated with that test
and that user.
That works for me.
Cheers,
tedd

This question is absolutely and completely out of the scope of
this list. You're using a version of PHP for which support was ended
a long time ago, and the question isn't a PHP question, but instead a
web server question.
Check with the Oracle folks to see why the setup is not working
for you. In lieu of that, check community-run forums and user-to-user
support sites specifically designed for Oracle's products.

Hi,
My suggestion is you install a better version of PHP or use other type of php
server, you will use oracle db? If is not necessary, you should use mysql or
postgresql for learn php.
But this error maybe happen because you are using '<?' '?>' for php tags,
if you use '<?php' '?>' maybe this error will go away

Ah, that wasn't impatience, I have two email addresses and was unsure which
were allowed to post to the list but apparently it's both! Sorry about that.
In relation to the question, the answer was indeed to change to
socket_create, the following code works fine:
$master_socket = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM,
0);
socket_bind($master_socket, '127.0.0.1',
$this->port);
socket_listen($master_socket);
socket_set_option($master_socket, SOL_SOCKET,
SO_REUSEADDR, 1);
socket_set_nonblock($master_socket);
Thanks for the help =)

how is the best way to check if email address is valid: is this preg_match() OK?
preg_match('/^([a-zA-Z0-9])+([a-zA-Z0-9\._-])*@([a-zA-Z0-9_-])+([a-zA-Z0-9\._-]+)+$/',
$email);
How can I make double opt-in mail system? My idea:
1.) I remember the email entered and user data and the sha1($email);
in mysql db
2.) I send email with activation link of the sha1($email);
3.) I am not clear how to proceed when the link is activated. How to
update the db and submit the necessary form to the marketing.
Thanks in advance,

Thanks in advance,
Double opt-in.
1. Have the user enter their email address via a form that let's them
know they are subscribing to a service. You might want to check for a
valid email address (many versions) and/or a CAPTCHA. additionally,
you need to check if they have already registered OR in the process
of registering.
2. After they submit their email address, then have your script
create a unique token and record it coupled with the email address in
your database.
3. Then send a confirmation email to that email address with the
token appended as a link in the email -- with instructions for the
receiver to either ignore the email (with apologies) or click the
link and be taken back to your site where your script takes the
confirmation token and checks your database for a token/email match.
If there is one, then that completes the process and you have a
confirmed double opt-in email address to use. If not, have them try
again.
Here's the script I wrote to do that:

When the user clicks the activation link, mark the address active in the
subscribers table, or move the entry from a pending table to a
subscribers table. Then execute the email/whatever to marketing just as
you would without using double opt-in.

I'm wondering if there isn't something out there that crawls through
your codebase and generates a map of (any of) the following:
* What files are include in which scripts
* The relationships between defined classes (eg A extends B)
* What other classes are utilized by which classes (eg, instantiation)
I've done some looking around but haven't really been able to find
anything that does even some of this. I could write functionality
that does this but didn't want to reinvent the wheel.
thnx,
Christoph

I think that you're looking for Perl!

Have you looked at PHPDoc? You'll have to comment your code fairly well
and in a specific style (which is a boon in itself) but it will produce
some fairly good documentation.

doesn't phpdoc or something do this stuff? might need comments before
each function/method to make it really work well. not sure. i think
there's also something called "phpxref" as well that might work...

Ok, I'll look in to it. Thanks!

It does. But I'm looking to use this on an inherited framework that,
unfortunately, includes very little PHPDoc comments. Considering how
large the codebase is, it'd be quicker for me to write this
functionality (to at least give us something to reference) than it
would be to add the necessary comments. Granted, that's something
we'd want to eventually add anyway but it's something we could do over
time as we became much more familiar with the framework.
thnx,
Christoph

Is this even possible? I'm building a string, properly formatted, to create
a named pair or associative array. The string is fine, and when I use it
directly to create the array, all is well. When I try to use the var to
create the array, I get an empty array (I think). Huh?
Here is what I have:
$myString = "'username' => 'password' , 'mickey' => 'mouse' , 'donald' =>
'duck'";
$myArray = array($myString);
print ("array val: $myArray[username]"); // get an empty string here
