hi
When i try to compile this code it gives following error.....
<b>Fatal error</b>: Only variables can be passed by reference in
<b>/var/www/html/hello/test.php</b> on line <b>16</b><br />
I have defined variable for to match some string patterns / symbols.
when i execute that code for preg_match , gives this fatal error .
<?php
$user="root";
$pass="pass";
$db="database";
$pattern="[ _ :< ] >";
$dblink = mysql_connect("localhost:3306", "$user", "$pass")or
die("Could not connect to db");
mysql_select_db($db) or die ("can't select the db");
$result = mysql_query ("select ServiceNo,Reply from Acknowledgement
order by ServiceNo") or die ("Invalid query");
while ( $rset= mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
/* Lets check the reply with the database*/
$chk_msg= $rset["Reply"];
//echo "checking $chk_msg in $msg<br>";
if ( preg_match("$pattern","/$chk_msg/","$msg", $match) ) {
// match found
$SQL="update ServiceStatus set Status = 'UP' where
ServiceNo=".$rset["ServiceNo"];
mysql_query ("$SQL") or die ("Invalid 2nd query");
}else{
}
}
mysql_close($dblink);
?>
how can i prevent this problem ???
Thanx in advance
