[PHP] Re: validating form data...
Very embaressing The error where not in my if-statement... but in what I did later on in the else-clause... so boys and girls... remember you do not set variables like this: $Var = = Avariable; // Doesn't work. (slap me!) the correct is : $Var = Avariable; Sorry for vasting your time... And Thanks for all the help... Toke. Toke Herkild [EMAIL PROTECTED] skrev i en meddelelse [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... I've made a script which ought to validate if there is data in the fields or not... but it doesn't seem to work... the validation is following: if ((email_is_valid($Email)) and ($Name != ) and ($Message != )){ do stuff ... } But even if I submit an empty form it executes do stuf... I have tried to put an empty space into the $Name and $Message test but that doesn't seem to do any difference either... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[PHP] Re: validating form data...
To verify the existence of both a name and message, try a test similar to the following: if ((email_is_valid($email)) (strlen($name) 0) (strlen($name) 0)) { ... } I've found that using in a conditional block tends to be a bit buggy. strlen() seems to be pretty solid for verifying the existence of text in a variable.
