[PHP] ADOdb

[Brendon G]

Just curious as to what the general consensus of opinion is on the following
class.  Do many of you use it?.
http://php.weblogs.com/ADOdb

Coming over to PHP from ASP (I'm not really interested in learning .Net at
the moment) I like that I can switch databases allot faster if the need
occurs by using ADOdb.  If I had written code just using MySQLconnect I'd
have a hell of a time in the future.

Cheers

Brendon

Re: [PHP] SQL : left join from multiple tables

[Marek Kilimajer]

Well, this would work in MySQL, I have even more LEFT JOINs, so go find 
out if it is possible with Oracle.

Re: Re: [PHP] file uploads problem

[Jaski]

No Edwin .. I can't do any thing to that file .. not even from my 
ftp client .. can't download can't change permissions ..

The server is managed by rackspace .. I doubt they would do some 
thing like running apache as root which I "hear" is a v foolish 
thing to do  (frankly I don't know how to figure it out myself 
..if that is the case .. phpinfo() did not say any thing on 
that.)

A brief restatement of problem

File uploaded via HTTP POST to /tmp  OK

After this I tried the following three things and none worked.

a) fopen("/tmp/temp_file_name","rb")  FAILED (Operation not 
permitted)
b) copy($tempfile, "/place/to/put/uploaded/file") FAILED
c) move_uploaded_file($userfile, "/place/to/put/uploaded/file") 
DID COPY BUT file had -rw permissions, and could not open 
this file either... so back to square 1

The directory in "/place/to/put/uploaded/file is mode 777 .


Still fighting it out.

Jaski

[PHP] Create login procedure...

[Christian Ista]

Hello,

I change the procedure to create an account for users. For the moment, 
the user (to create and log in), have to create an account with e-mail + 
password. I'd like to create a procedure to check the e-mail (login) 
validity. But I'd like to check if the e-mail used exist or not.

The procedure, I'd like implement :
1. User create new account (enter : fisrt name, last name, e-mail, 
password, )

2. An e-mail is send to user to check if e-mail exist. In the e-mail, my 
first idea is to send with an auto-generated number

3. User have to join a specific page to enter the auto-generated number 
to check the validity.


My question are :
1. What do you think about this procedure ? your advise, idea are welcome
2. Is it possible with mySQL to delete user after for example 2 days, if 
the user not confirm the subscription ?

Bye

When you come out of your loop, either there will be one row left to 
print, or there were no matching rows. Suggestion one is to test for 
this and if there were matching rows, do a special case for the last row.

Alternatively, you are printing a row when the ID changes, that is, the 
last row of the 1 to 3 matching rows. Why not print the first one, not 
last one? You change the logic
to print the first row then ignore others with the same ID. It could be 
that (because of an Order By clause) the last row is the correct one and 
the data may differ between rows with the same ID.

You say you do not want to do it in the SQL statement itself, but this 
really is the right place. If MySQL use a LIMIT clause to only get one 
row, if you cannot refine the SQL statement to only retrieve one row.

It looks fine to me (I'm no expert), but maybe its case sensitive? You

when i try to use tf text functions...

my config:

Redhat 7.3 clean install
php-4.1.2-7

I tried all things I could find on the net: absolute and relative path, give
name of the font with or without .ttf, anything...
it just doesn't work...
the only functions that work are imagestring and imagechar...
imagettftext and imagettfbbox are not working...

[PHP] why manual says 'don't use session_register'?

[Giancarlo Pinerolo]

The manual has many cautions that say 'do not use session_regiister,,
session_is_registered, session_unregister, when the ini setting is
register_globals=off.

But they still do work, it seems. 
Or how exactly  do these function work differently than with reg_globals
On?
Can I still continue to use them with reg_globals=off, as they seem to
work anyway?

yup

i generate a random 5 digit number before inserting into the DB.  I then
insert the information WITH the confirm code as one colum.

i then obtain the ID of the row I just inserted into the users table, and
then i send an email with a link like:

'to confirm your membership, please click on this link (or copy into your
browser).
http://site.com/confirm.php?id=45&code=12856'

They click on the link, and if the confirm code matches for the right ID,
then we're confirmed.  I change the confcode column to 1, and use this as a
test to ensure a user is confirmed.

not bullet proof, but a good start.

make sure the link is short, to avoid line wrapping etc...

Yup

see above... in theory, good start.

to AUTOMATE a procedure on the server, you need a cron job (unix) or
scheduled task (win).  another option is to have a clean-out tool as part of
your admin tools... just a simple link you click on every so-often which
looks for unconfirmed users more than X hours old.  The way to check this
would be to ensure you insert a time stamp of some description as a column
of your user table (stamp_added) for example.

whether you automate it, or clean out manually every few days, the thoery is
the same.


your user table might look something like:

id|email|first|last|pass|confcode|stampadded|stamplastlogin

or you mgiht choose to split stuff like stampAdded, stampLastLogin, and even
the confirmation code into separate relational tables...

Re: [PHP] why manual says 'don't use session_register'?

[Justin French]

if you have register globals off, then use the $_SESSION array.

// set the value of a session var:
$_SESSION['foo'] = "bah";

// test to see if a session var is set
if(isset($_SESSION['foo'])) { ... }

// unset / unregister a session var
unset($_SESSION['foo']);


The older functions still work, but are not reliable, according to the
manual.

I much prefer working with $_SESSION, because session_register() was a
little counter-intuitive (IMO), and now doesn't work like the rest of the
superglobal arrays ($_POST, $_GET, etc).


If you have register globals off, I recommend working the new way.

If you have register_globals set to off, the $_SESSION array is defined.

The functions session_is_registered, session_unregister and session_register
use the session file, not the $_SESSION array. That means that the function
session_unregister or session_register affects the session file, but not the
$_SESSION array!

That can lead to unwanted results if you check that value later on (in the
same php file). If you use unset($_SESSION['key']) instead of
session_unregister('key'), the value will be removed from the $_SESSION
array AND from the session file.

I recommend following the manual and don't use the session_unregister,
session_is_registered and session_register functions anymore.

I think you won't be able to do anything with the file IF you use your ftp
client. The reason is because *you* don't own the file so you can't read it
nor change it's permissions. Your *script(s)* owns the file so most probably
if you use another script to read and change the permissions, the script
would be able to do it. In other words, use your php script to read and
change the permissions. Perhaps, you'd like to play with these functions and

Subject: [PHP] ADOdb


Just curious as to what the general consensus of opinion is on the following
class.  Do many of you use it?.
http://php.weblogs.com/ADOdb

Coming over to PHP from ASP (I'm not really interested in learning .Net at
the moment) I like that I can switch databases allot faster if the need
occurs by using ADOdb.  If I had written code just using MySQLconnect I'd
have a hell of a time in the future.

Cheers

Brendon

[PHP] impossible in php?

[andy]

Hi there,

I am trying to do something real dynamic. It looks like this is impossible
in php because the parser would not work for the two cases.

Following idea.
- Create a dynamic image ( a card with a given text inside). I call it
v-card.jpg and a .htaccess file takes care that the .jpg is parsed via php
So the v-card.jpg is a php file outputting a jpg. This workes pretty good.

- Create a pdf with lots of this v-cards inside. The function works with
images from the filesystem, but not with the dynamic v-card.jpg image.

Now I am wondering if this is possible in php, since both files are parsed
in the same time. Maybe there is a work around or any hint you could give
me. I am kind off stuck.

Thanx in advance,

Andy

When I've done this, I put the ttfs in /usr/local/fonts/ttf
Then I defined a const for the dir,
define('FONTDIR','/usr/local/font/ttf/') 
And used concat to build the absolute path:
$font = FONTDIR . 'arial.ttf';
You can uses file_exists() to make sure it's not a permissions problem

Have you checked out FPDF (http://www.fpdf.org)? It may be just what you are
looking for as it seems you could combine the code with the dynamic v-vard
image.

Re: [PHP] SQL : left join from multiple tables

[Chris Hewitt]

Faisal,

I'd check the documentation CDs for Oracle 9i. Oracle 8 does not use the 
"join" or "left" keywords but a plus sign in parenthesis "(+)" whose 
position determines whether it is a left or right join. It may not be 
SQL2 but its Oracle.

RE: [PHP] in a logic loop!

[Naintara Jain]

Thank you Chris.

I agree with you wholeheartedly that the SQL should be optimized.
Now, I don't want to freeload on your time, but I have a very complex query,
which I have been pondering over for the last many days.
If anyone can tell me what query will return just one row for the problem I
have, s/he will be SQL Guru to me.

My problem is:
I have 3 tables (given below). A member of the staff takes courses and for
each course he has requirement id, these details get stored in the
staff_courses table. Each course taken will have a requirement specification
which could be any of 4 values given below (after the reqs table). I need to
get totals for each requirement for each member of the staff. I am using
MySQL (and cannot use sub-queries). I have been able to get the requirement
totals for each member using Group By reqid, but I get a separate row for
each requirement against the member of staff. So if a member has taken 3
courses, and one course has a reqid of 0 and the other two courses have a
reqid of 1, I get 2 rows in the result set for that staffid, one will
contain the reqid 0 and total as 1, while the second row will contain the
reqid as 1 and the total as 2.

Can I get the totals for each requirement in one row and can I do this in
one query?

1)"staff" table
staffid
branchid

2)"staff_courses" table
courseid
staffid
reqid

3)"reqs" table
reqid
requirement

contains the
reqid  requirement
0 No action
1 Primary requirement
2 Further requirement
3 Completed

When you come out of your loop, either there will be one row left to
print, or there were no matching rows. Suggestion one is to test for
this and if there were matching rows, do a special case for the last row.

Alternatively, you are printing a row when the ID changes, that is, the
last row of the 1 to 3 matching rows. Why not print the first one, not
last one? You change the logic
to print the first row then ignore others with the same ID. It could be
that (because of an Order By clause) the last row is the correct one and
the data may differ between rows with the same ID.

You say you do not want to do it in the SQL statement itself, but this
really is the right place. If MySQL use a LIMIT clause to only get one
row, if you cannot refine the SQL statement to only retrieve one row.

[PHP] RE: Maybe a stupid question but can it be done?

[Tim Ward]

the ID field in the first table can be an auto-increment field and 
the second table needs to have an ID INT field that is not auto increment.
Insert into the first table, use mysql_insert_id() (or whatever it is) to
get the auto incremented value and then do your second insert using that
value for the ID field.

[PHP] PEAR or not PEAR

[Joshua E Minnie]

Hey all,

I was reading an article at PHPBuilder.com (not very recent, 01/15/2001)
about PEAR DB, and was wondering if anyone had any experience using PEAR
rather than the functions dedicated specifically to each type of DB (i.e.
mysql_, mssql_, pg_, msql_, etc.).  Also, if anyone has any reasons why to
go with one or the other.

The reason I ask, is because I recently downloaded QuerySim so I could
simulate my db info while the db is still in development and not have to
slow down the process.  QuerySim uses PEAR DB functions, and after the db
development is finished it is an easy conversion.  Simply change the line
that tells which db is being accessed.

[code snippet]
$db = DB::connect( "mssql://$dbuser:$dbpass@$dbhost/$dbname" ); // for MSSQL
$db = DB::connect( "mysql://$dbuser:$dbpass@$dbhost/$dbname" ); // for MySQL
//instead of

$conn = DB::connect('querysim');
[/code snippet]

And my querys would still remain relatively the same.  I hope you can shed
some light on this because I am not really sure which one to use.

It's not the IfModule, already tried that :)

Someone at the apache list told me that the name would be sapi_apache2.c,

sapi_apache2.c didn't work either.

Re: [PHP] Re: domxml and setting the DOCTYPE

[Raphael Bauduin]

thanks for your answer. I hoped there was a function to specify the doctype 
of the document generated. Apparently there isn't. It's as sad thing as I 
have to create another script just to add the doctype. 

Can someone just confirm me it's not possible with php to do what I want?

I find it strange you can read the doctype but not set it.

It looks like a gdb issue.

[PHP] Problems with variables and PHP/HTML

I am currently using Apache 1.3.26 and PHP 4.2.3 on a Linux box running

My trouble is in passing variable from within a form submission or within a

I can get a From submission to work if I declare the variable and resubmit
it to another variable name.

I.E. form field name = username passed to readform.php
   in readform.php $username = $_POST['username']

 I can then user $username

Used to be you could just use $username as a variable if it was passed from
a form to another script.

Now I have $username defined and useable but if I try to add it to a URL
such as:



It becomes a null value or doesn't get passed at all.

I thought this might have something to do with track-vars but track vars are
enabled by default in PHP since before my version. When I compiled
everything I compiled PHP as a DSO. Any ideas?

TIA,

Re: [PHP] error compiling apache2 on cobalt libgdbm error

[Rasmus Lerdorf]

Note that gdbm is not threadsafe, so you should only run Apache2 in
prefork mode (or simply stick with Apache 1.3).  But what does this have
to do with PHP?

First part of description:

"crypt() will return an encrypted string using the standard Unix
DES-based encryption algorithm or alternative algorithms that may be
available on the system."

You need crypt on Windows, good luck. Most liekly crypt() is just
disabled for Win32 port.

MD5 is just a hash, not encryption. I'm guessing this one is built into
PHP.

Re: [PHP] Problems with variables and PHP/HTML

[Justin French]

set register globals to ON in your PHP.ini for this to work, although I'd
highly recommend doing what you already are doing...

$username = $_POST['username'];

It's a LOT more secure.

Re: [PHP] MySQL vs. basic text file

[drparker]

ok - thanks for all the replies.  it looks like there are no real
drawbacks and plently of advantages in using MySQL instead of text files,
so i'll do the next project with it.  one more question - is there a
concrete file that has the database in mySQL?  like a file that I could
download and view that contains the entire spreadsheet that i have
created?

The directives inside the  branches are being ignored. Thus the
include path is not being modified and my application doesn't work. I know,
I can change the application to include the right path, but it's not mine
and I want as few patches as possible.

This means that either the module is not loaded (but it is), or I'm checking
it with the wrong name (that's what I think it is).
If I but "blablabla" inside the  no error happens. But, just for
testing, if I change mod_php4.c to mod_ssl.c (for example), which is also
being loaded, then apache won't start because of the "blablabla". So, I still
think it's the name that is wrong.

It is on, the module is loaded. The application runs, but can't find its
include files.

Not possible, but workaround is to pass the variable name and use it as

[PHP] XSLT and PHP

[Geoff]

I have been impressed with using the xslt functions in php in that it
gives you the ability to separate content from presentation. Now I am
looking to streamline this technique. 

Typically I either take xml that is in a file or generated by a class
from a sql query and transform it with an xsl file. 

The great part is anything to do with content or code is completely
separate from presentation. However, if I ever need to change the
presentation (xsl files) I still have one xsl file for every "page" on
the site to edit. 

I have tried to make xsl files use includes (php includes) without much
success. I am looking into xsl includes.

What I am looking for is either a way to use includes in xsl stylesheets
or something like Fusebox layouts for xml/xsl. Thank you

[PHP] problems with phpPgAdmin

[javier]

Hi, I've just installed phpPgAdmin. When it comes to configuration it 
seems that everything is ok *but* the program doesn't work.

I read some files and I found this:

if (file_exists("config.inc.php")) {
 include("config.inc.php");
}
else {
 echo "Configuration Error: You must rename/copy 
config.inc.php-dist to config.inc.php and set your appropriate settings";
 exit;
}

The file exists but I don't know why the function file_exists returns false.
I also tried with another file in another dir. like index.php and I got 
the same result.

You may have to include the full path to the included file. If

However, is that the ONLY way?  Shouldn't this be something that is not

But even so, what about the other Notices I might receive in regards to

Basically I'm asking if this is the only way to do it..

This seems to be a browser problem, as I often get similar errors when

That looks like an IE error.. and I know I have the same problem with

[PHP] Experiences with Zend Safe Guard?

[J Smith]

The suits at work are looking at the Zend Safe Guard and I'm just wondering 
if anybody had any experience with this new tool. Is it worth the purchase, 
and has it been worth the price?

We already have a Zend Encoder license, so we're getting a bit of price 
break for the Safe Guard, but it's still (like most Zend products, it 
seems) a bit pricey. I know to most big mammoth shops the price isn't a bit 
concern, but I like to stay thrifty, so if I start hearing horror stories 
I'll look into something else.

On the whole, I like the idea, and I've been looking forward to it's release 
ever since I found out about the tool. (About a year ago plus change.)

Anyways, experiences? Good? Bad? Worth it?

Thanks.

Basically yes, unless you want to patch php sources and recompile. You 
could use error_reporting(), but the notice is issued befor you script

[PHP] Jpeg resize quality problem

[Michael F.]

Hello,

I have a php script which resizes a jpeg file.  I use ImageCopyResized and
ImageJPEG function. But the result picture quality is not enough good. I use
ImageJPEG with quality = 90 but the picture is not as nice as a picture I
made with AcdSee and 65%.
Is it normal?

Thanks!

[PHP] Scripthash PHP security module updated

[Tom Oram]

Hi,

I would just like to announce an update of our scripthash library. There was
problems running the previous version on system with recent versions glibc.

For everyone who doesn't already know, scriphash is only relevent for people
running PHP as an Apache module on a *nix system. It allows you to securely
hide passwords and switch user within you php scripts.

For more information check the site

http://www.scl.co.uk/scripthash/

If you decide to try it out and you run into any problems please don't give up
and get in touch, we will be very willing to help you out.

Hope someone finds this useful.

Cheers
Tom

[PHP] PHP Form and Arrays help

[Tom Ray]

I'm having a small problem with a form I'm designing and I hope someone can
point me in the right direction here. The form's function is rather simple
actaully. It's supposed to take the information, run through it to make sure
all the required fields have data in them, if there is a blank required field
it is supposed to redraw the form showing the field missed but also store the
data that was already submitted so you don't have to fill the form out all over
again. Now I have it so it stores the values of text boxes, drop down menus and
radio buttons but I'm having a real tough time with the check box values.
Example of what I'm doing: (Gender Selection with Radio Buttons). 

I declare an array in my PHP by doing 
$genderarray=array();

Then I store the value of the form for the redraw like so:
$mygender=$HTTP_POST_VARS[gender];
$genderarray[$mygender]="checked";

In the actaul form I decalre a global:
global genderarray();

And under the gender selection I have:
" >
(works the same for the Female)


Now my question is how can I do this with check boxes. I thought I could
through them all into a single array, then pull out the ones who have values to
them, but that's not working the way I thought.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

The algoritm gdlib uses is fast but worst. Use either exec("convert

Use either session to "remember" the checkboxes' name/value pairs or 
hidden fields.

Re: [PHP] PHP Form and Arrays help

[Geoff]

If I remember correctly checkboxes literally do not exist on the posted
pages if they don't get checked on the form page. So maybe you can use
isset or something like that to see if the checkbox exists if so make it
checked if not show it unchecked.

Hope that helps.

[PHP] Creating/displaying page content and downloading a file at the same time

[Merritt, Dave]

All,

I'm trying to write a script that will allow the user to download/save a
file but I also want to be able to display a web page in the browser window
as well.  If a user runs the following code from an empty browser window,
then the contents of the browser window will remain empty.  How do I get the
script to also output page content to the browser window as well as download
the file?  I've played around with trying to add an additional text/html
content type and echoing out text in different places in the script, but I
cannot get any output to appear in the browser window.  I've tried setting
the location so that the page will open another page but then I run into the
headers already sent problem.

from the browser:
http://myhost/download.php/?Filename=/tmp/20020923172330.xls

download.php:



Thanks

Display a page first, then use the redirect header to redirect the

[PHP] Adding to a MySql Database

[The New Source]

I have a field on a MySql database that is started with a 0, and I want
to add 1 to this field every time a button is pressed on a form. So it
should add one every time, like if there is 5 and you press it one time
it would have 6.

See http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.imagecopyresampled.php it uses
a different method to re-size/sample images.

Marek's a bit more elegant, but I'm wondering when twelve of us press the

convert is a command common on unix platforms, might be available even 
for windows.
Imlib ext. is not available for Windows. ( check http://mmcc.cx/php_imlib/ )

[PHP] authenticating and redirecting with special access

[Bryan Koschmann - GKT]

Hello,

I'm fairly new to PHP, but I am studying (ORA's "Programming PHP"). I am
trying to do something but can't quite figure out how.

Here is what I need to do:

User goes to an address. They login with say "jsmith" and their password.
the PHP script gets authenticates against a MySQL database. I have this
working.

After being authenticated, user is redirected to a directory to which only
they have access to (say www.mydomain.com/jsmith). I have this working to
the redirect part.

Where I am stuck is how to make it so someone can ONLY get to that
directory if they are authenticated, and cannot access it directly.

Now, I was thinking that there could be something php-based in that
directory that checks if they are already authenticated, but the problem
is that the files are generated by another program that I cannot modify.

I'm also having a problem where I have to close my browser to be able to
re-login, but I'm guessing this is a session problem and I just haven't
gotten that far yet.

Does anyone have any ideas here? I did a lot of searching and didn't find
much of anything.

Thanks in advance!

Bryan

[PHP] script to check for register_gloabs=off compatibility

[Thomas Porter]

I currently maintain about 100 sites that use PHP.  Many of them were
programmed pre 4.2, and are not compatible with the register_globals=off
setting.  Since we use virtual hosts in apache I have been able to modify
that one ini setting for the sites that need it, but now my job is to modify
all of these scripts to be compatible with the register_globals=off setting
so they will be more secured.  I'm wondering if anyone out there has written
a script that can look at the PHP scripts and see if they are compatible or
not.  I'm sure this would be no easy task, but it would be most useful at
the same time.  I've done a find for all of the PHP scripts on our server
and am confronted with over 8,000 scripts that need to be looked at, and
that's just files with the .php extension we've got plenty of .inc's and
other various extensions (including a few sites that parse .html as PHP)
that would need to be checked as well.

Anybody got any ideas?

RE: [PHP] authenticating and redirecting with special access

[David Buerer]

make the directory outside of the web server root path and create some PHP
routines to display the directory data as you see fit.  PHP can see the
entire file store, whereas the webserver can only see data below it's root.
That way you keep security and can also display the data.

[PHP] Thoughts on a simple search engine...

[Chuck Payne]

Ok for a simple search I should be able to create a form page and Enter the
value and select the feild that Ron want to search.

Example

$sql = "SELECT * FROM \"$table\" WHERE \$field\" LIKE \"'%$value%'\" ORDER
BY \"$input"\";

$table = Of course the table they want to search
$field = Field that want to seach
$value = value what they want to by
$input = if they want to search by something other a node numder.

So I if I create the form, is there way that I can have it echo on the same
page if I am using a form?

[PHP] Errr... problem uploading files

[Jose Fandos]

Hi,

Under PHP 4.2.3 and 4.2.2 with Apache 1.3.6, all under Windows XP, when
a
form has a file input field, if I browse and upload, all the information
going with the post to the server gets lost!!! There is no trace of it
(and
this is what's really frustating me, no trace in any log of any errors).
var_dump's show everything empty. If I submit without browsing (i.e. no
file
selected), I do see the $_FILES array signaling an error, but otherwise
complete, and everything else (though, on further testing, it seems that
it
works one out of every 4 times when no file is selected, and never if a
file
is selected).

I have checked the max_filesize and every other limit and they seem ok.
I
have tried with different files with no results, picking them from
different
folders in the hard drive, too.

I have also tried the same code while in another server (Solaris and Red
Hat
Linux) and there it works, while I upload files from my XP machine. I
have
made the php.ini as close as possible to those other systems, but still
nothing.
I have checked the event viewer in Windows XP to see if there is
something
in there, but nothing showed up. I've been trying with both IE and
Mozilla.
No difference.

What follows is the phpinfo(). Maybe someone can spot a problem in
there.

Hi,

I just began to learn php and I have te following code. How can I get the

RE: [PHP] html input and php (newbie)

[Daniel Kushner]

Hi Anna,

Your REGISTER_GLOBALS is most probably set to OFF (see php.ini file). Try
using the special $_POST array created by PHP:

if ($_POST['submit'] == "click"){
echo "Hello, $_POST[UserName]";
}

If your form was using the GET method you would need the $_GET array.

Daniel Kushner

Assuming register_globals=off, use $_POST['UserName'] instead

What is of your PHP version?
I guess of your directive register_globals = off in your php.ini, so your 
code would be run OK like this:

RE: [PHP] getting ip address of the user.

[Bill Farrell]

Hi, Y'all,
Here's another suggestion FWIW.  I prep a few
variables in the htmlhead.php routine, $RemoteHost
being one of them.  Having some simple names for
associated values is kinda handy.  One of the biggest
strengths of PHP is that there's more than one way to
go about solving problems.  Here goes:

RE: [PHP] html input and php (newbie) --> What I was asking with my thoughts on Search Engine

[Chuck Payne]

This what I was asking, I want someone to press submit then have the returns
print out in one are of the table. So could I do this?




So instead of doing a search.html that calls on do_search.php like most
books teach. I am wanting to do a search.php. Just print the information on
that page.

RE: [PHP] Thoughts on a simple search engine...

[Support @ Fourthrealm.com]

Chuck,
Setup your form like this (assuming search.php is the name of your page):



.



Then in your search.php page, use this structure:

# --- set $step to passed value, or else set to default ---
if (isset($_GET["step"]))   { $step=$_GET["step"]; }
elseif (isset($_POST["step"]))  { $step=$_POST["step"]; }
else{ $step="1"; }


if ($step==2)
{
 # --- do the Search query and display results here ---


 # after displaying, then set step=1  to force the search form to 
come up again at the bottom of the page
 $step=1;
}

if ($step==1)
{
 # --- put the form here...  ---
}


I use the "step" variable all the time in controlling page flow, and 
allowing me to re-use the same .php file for many similar purposes to keep 
the file count of the site low.

HTH,

Peter

[PHP] Variables and Forms

[ed]

 I'm trying to pass variables from one page to the next but don't want to
use a hidden input type=text box. I need to break from frames and I don't
know a way to pass that to the action tag in the form. If there's a way to
do that then great but I haven't found it. I've also tried the meta
http-equiv="window-target" content tag on the action page from the form
and it didn't work either.

TIA

Ed Curtis

This should open up a new window for the new page


As far as passing variables from page to page, have you ever considered
sessions?
