Re: [PHP] my paging task with PHP does not work. It uses cookie.
Don't use SQL_CALC_FOUND ROWS on simple queries, when you have to run a simple query on one or two (with join) tables with a simple WHERE. Especialy if tables are big. I found out that single SELECT COUNT(id) FROM table is far more faster when query has simple WHERE conditions. I use SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS only with a rather complex queries - that SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS doesn't affect query execution at all (well, it affects ofcourse, but affect is so small, you can't see it).

you call it this way:

Re: [PHP] my paging task with PHP does not work. It uses cookie.
Hi Mike,
I am intrested for the solution you gave me. But I am confused of the way in
implementing "select FOUND_ROWS()".
I wrote another very simple codes as the first step for understanding this
threat:
$idiklan";
}
}
}else{
echo "I can't talk to the server";
exit();
}
?>
I've put nine records into the table of "lowongan", idiklan 1 to 9.
Look I get of course only one record, namely the: '9'.
This is the output of my codes in my internet browser.
===
FirstItem 9
FirstItem 9
===
The output what I am expecting suppose to be:
on the $i=0
"
FirstItem 1
FirstItem 2
FirstItem 3
FirstItem 4
FirstItem 5
"
and on the $i=1
"
FirstItem 6
FirstItem 7
FirstItem 8
FirstItem 9
FirstItem 9
"
I read on the documentation of MySQL but I couldn't find any code of sample
also in the php.net.
Would be so kind to give me a very simple code of sample?
Thank you very much in advance.

[PHP] my paging task with PHP does not work. It uses cookie.
Dear my friends...
I am trying to display the content of a table. Each page must content only 5
records maximum. Each page has "Previous" and "Next" buttons (made from anchor).
I dump the primary of the working table and keep it in a cookie. So than the
paging task work with the index of cookie array. But the $curguruescomidiklan
stays "0" each time I click "Next" button.
The main part of doing the paging task is this lines:
"
for ($it=$curguruescomidiklan;$it<$itot;$it++){
$idad=$guruescomidiklan[$it];
echo "idad= $idad";
echo "it: $it";
bukaiklan($idad);
}
".
Please tell me why PHP does not work as I expect.
Thank you very much in advance.

Since you have control on the machines (which you should have said at

This works for me, PHP 4.1.1 Upon first loading the page, I get nothing, but when I click on "go", I get both referrer address' echoed. refer.php: --- go Page refered by '; echo $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'].''; ?> --- It's already been said but: 1. are you sure php is working (with other files, and with simple echo "hello world!"; type stuff)? 2. use this file (phpinfo.php) to test for the existence of HTTP_REFERER: refer.php: --- go Page refered by '; echo $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'].''; ?> --- Upon first loading, it will not be set, but when you click go, you have a referer, and it is set. For me, it's listed under the Apache Environment heading. If you still can't get a referrer var after all that, then there's an issue with your server (are you using apache) or perhaps the client (browser). because it *should* be simple.

Re: [PHP] Does not work
Pffft you can't trust Java, JavaScript or anything on the server side at all. Since it's set by the browser (client) itself, the best you can do is test for it, and provide a fall back option. For the bulk of users, this will be okay, because they're on IE. What you need to be carefull of is what effect your fall back has on the unknown browsers. Or design/program without the need to know what they're using :D Justin French on 15/07/02 5:34 AM, Saci ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote: > // HTTP_REFERER as a feature.

register_globals on or off is completely irrelevant to using urlencode (GET)
or htmlentities (POST) to send properly formatted strings to the browser.
If you want to delude yourself the register_globals off significantly
increases security, go ahead, but don't claim that it somehow "fixes"
badly-encoded HTML. It doesn't.

Re: [PHP] Re: PHP does not work??
I forgot to point out another disadvantage of turning on register_globals
apart from that of security is that when you are sending a page with a
form to the same page, e.g:
there is a tendency to lose info.. E.g.
If you are sending text separated by spaces you only manage to
send the first word this can be overcome by using the
htmlspecialchars('value') method to evaluate value...
turning on globals is to make the coding easier but has a
good deal of disadvantages...

There is no feasable way to "hide" data being submitted to your website. Anything that a user's browser can send, the user can telnet to port 80 of your server and "spoof". You can try POSTing data, which will not appear in the URL, but dont even waste time trying to "hide" submitted data, rather, build a stronger backend. -- Scott Hurring Systems Programmer EAC Corporation scott (*) eac.com -- "Scott Fletcher" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > Hi Erik! > > This is my 2nd posting, not sure what happened to my first one.

Hi Erik! This is my 2nd posting, not sure what happened to my first one. Sorry about not seeing your previous posting before. Windows crashed on me. My fault. I didn't know we can use php.ini in UNIX or Linux. Cool! Haven't been using it on UNIX for a long time. I think I can leave it out for now and make some changes to the scripts instead. When I saw the php.ini on Windows, I couldn't believe of so many configuration. So, I think it will be helpful to make some changes to teh website and keep it simple for someone who will take my place as webmaster. Saw your comments about "_GET['data']".

Re: [PHP] Re: PHP does not work??
I didn't know that. Thanks for the info. I think it would be best that I not use php.ini. I can write the script to register the variable. What would be a demo script that would work? I'm having a little trouble understanding that on the php.net website. Most of the script that use global variables came from hyperlinks. I have no form method like "post" or "get". I have one website that use session. Like session_start(), session_register(), etc. How would this be affected and what is the work around to this one.

There is an ini file for PHP, and you may have to rename php.ini-dist to php.ini. Once done, look for ; You should do your best to write your scripts so that they do not require ; register_globals to be on; Using form variables as globals can easily lead ; to possible security problems, if the code is not very well thought of. register_globals = Off Setting Off to On will let your scripts continue to work, once you have restarted your server of course. You really should, due to security considerations leave this set of Off and reconfigure your variables as stated in other e-mails. Since this will probably take some time you can leave register_globals on until you're finished with that project. HTH!

[PHP] Re: PHP does not work??
I'm using UNIX, not windows, so there is no php.ini in UNIX. I only use the "./configure" command which is -- snip -- ./configure --with-apache=../apache_1.3.26 --with-ibm-db2=/usr/lpp/db2_06_01 --with-openssl=../openssl-0.9.6d --with-mcrypt=../../lib --without-mysql --with-config-file-path=/etc --enable-track-vars --with-curl=../../lib --with-xml --snip-- Then I went on to compile the PHP, then Apache, etc. Since from recent post, there was some talk about register_globals. I'm not familiar with that so I will find out what that is, and what that is use for. If anyone know, can anyone tell me what it does? Thanks.

RE: [PHP] PHP does not work??
[snip] When I use the hyperlink, "test.php?data=yes" and I go to this page, test.php but there is no data in this variable, $data. So, the web page I have, most of them are all thrown off becuase of this. I use PHP version 4.2.1. Is there a bug in this PHP version??? Or some changes in PHP that I'm not aware of? Let me know! [/snip] Did you RTF release notes? Did you search the list archives? Did you check to make sure that register_globals is 'ON'?

Let me know! Use $_GET['data'], not $data. Or turn register_globals = on in your php.ini. Get to know your php.ini, and read the release notes for any software you upgrade -- this is mentioned in the PHP 4.1.x release notes if you want to read them for yourself.

[PHP] PHP does not work??
Hi! I downloaded the newer version of PHP and compiled it. The php is working great! But there is one problem. When I use the hyperlink, "test.php?data=yes" and I go to this page, test.php but there is no data in this variable, $data. So, the web page I have, most of them are all thrown off becuase of this. I use PHP version 4.2.1. Is there a bug in this PHP version??? Or some changes in PHP that I'm not aware of? Let me know!
