You should probably wrap the whole thing in a single form. The reason you're not getting the first 2 values in process.php is because they're inputs inside of a different form.

[PHP] Arrays passed to functions lose their indexing - how to maintain?

[PHP] PHP database interface layer
Hi everyone, I've built a fairly large normalized database schema for a project. This is fun for me as I like thinking about how everything is interconnected. Foreign keys are all set up, many-to-many tables are go, etc, and so on. But now it's time to create an interface between that database and the website using PHP. I've searched the web and this is obviously a very common problem with many solutions, but I can't help but feel that all of the logic I've built into the database is worth nothing once I start coding. I found this article/presentation that essentially sums up my frustration: http://mag-sol.com/talks/lpm/2006/orm/. Up until now I've been working on smaller projects with only a few tables that don't really relate to each other, and have found this tool (http://www.ricocheting.com/code/php/mysql-database-class-wrapper) very handy for the reasons he explains, but I'm looking for something a little different. I've looked at RedBean and it seems pretty handy, but it also requires me to redefine all of the foreign keys I've already defined, which is annoying. Any hope of something like // Get company where name='Widgets Inc.' or id=1 or $company = $db->get_company("name='Widgets Inc.'"); // Get all clients joined to the company $clients = $company->get_clients(); // Get all projects joined to the client $projects = $clients->get_projects(); ? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Protecting PHP scripts called via AJAX from evil
Hi folks, I'm looking for a straightforward way to protect PHP files which are called via AJAX from being called from outside my application.

[PHP] Character encoding hell
Hi folks, I've got a problem with character encoding that's threatening to kill my little brain. Here we go: I have a directory with a bunch of PDFs in it that my webpage displays links to. All of the files have the french character  in them. The operating system is Linux (I did not experience this problem on a Windows machine). I don't want to type the display name of these files twice and the website has no database capability so it takes the filename, rips off the extension, and runs htmlentities() on it before displaying to the user. So far so good. Now to the anchor's href. The only encoding method I found which creates a proper link to the file is rawurlencode(), but the catch is that the filename isn't user friendly at all. My question then is what is the best solution to this problem? Ideally I would like the link to function and for the filename to be readable. Any hope/help is appreciated.

If I just run htmlentities() on the href, it shows this in the browser URL: LE CHÂT.pdf But the browser returns a "not found" error: LE%20CH%C3%82T.pdf It seems like the  character is being misunderstood as "Â" -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I thought this too at first, but if I run htmlentites() on the filename it displays the  character so it must not have been lost completely, just encoded in a different way?

[PHP] Updating a GET variable

Hi folks, I'm trying to compare two strings in order to determine whether or not the site is just switching languages on the same page or whether the link is pointing to an entirely different page.

Previous code example: if (strpos('http://domain.com/fr/about/page/', '/about/page/') > -1){ $same_page = true; } As you can see this logic is not strong enough to deal with: if (strpos(http://domain.com/about/page/subpage/', '/about/page/') > -1){ $same_page = true; } As it is not the same page.

Re: [PHP] Recommendation request: Use Magento or build my own eCommerce?
Use Magento. It will take you more than 6 months to build what you're talking about all by yourself. Magento is a pain to learn at first but once you get into it things start to make sense and development speeds up.

In the case of an OR operator, $b is not "bar" because it follows the "true" path as you said earlier. Probably just a glitch in the English language. I'll file a bug for that.

Hi Tedd, A little searching enlightened me to the fact that in other languages, a single | or & operator will cancel the short-circuiting so all of the evaluations are done before proceeding.

It's an interesting idea (a different take on coding best practices) but I find the PHP example to be laborious and time consuming with little benefit.

[PHP] Does requesting $_SERVER variables need to query the server
This question will probably reveal my lacking knowledge of the fundamentals, but I'm a go for it anyway: When you use a $_SERVER variable, is a query made to the server to get the information or is it just sitting in a variable all ready to go? Reworded, is there any efficiency gained by storing the data in a "local" variable if it's going to be used many times in the script? My experience with jQuery has taught me to store $(objects) in local variables if they're going to be used repeatedly because the DOM is queried every time a jQuery object is generated, so I'm wondering if a similar logic applies. Example: if ($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] == 'how.php') // do stuff if ($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] == 'why.php') // do other stuff vs. $script_name = $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']; if ($script_name == 'how.php') // do stuff if ($script_name == 'why.php') // do other stuff Cheerios, Marc -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I was wondering if the code running on the server had to query the server for the information every time a $_SERVER var was referenced, but like Daniel explained, the contents of the $_SERVER array are populated at runtime and so no further "hey server, what version of apache are you running?" questions need to be asked of it.

Re: [PHP] Overriding session length in existing session?
> This is called globally in *all* my scripts. In another script I'd > really like to set the session to expire after the browser closes if a > uses clicks "public terminal" or something. Howdy. Don't sessions expire when the browser closes as a rule? Do you mean the session cookie? Why not store the cookie, if one exists, in a $_SESSION variable in your header file and then refer to that in the rest of your code, rather than the cookie. Then when you want to destroy the session cookie, you can overwrite it and the existing session will still flow using the $_SESSION vars until the browser closes.

Re: [PHP] Overriding session length in existing session?
I think that my suggestion is still a valid solution, someone correct me if I'm wrong. Let's say your code went like this: session_start(); // Check to see if the session variable has already been set, if not if (!isset($_SESSION['var'])){ // Check to see if it's been stored in a cookie if (isset($_COOKIE['var'])){ $_SESSION['var'] = $_COOKIE['var']; } // If not, set the session variable and store it in a cookie for 7 days else{ $_SESSION['var'] = "value"; setcookie ("var", $_SESSION['var'], time()+86400 * 7, "/", ".domain.com"); } } echo "Here I am using my session variable, it's value is ".$_SESSION['var']; So if that's in the header of every page, but you want to make an acception if the person is using a public computer, you just add something like: if ($_POST['public_terminal'] === TRUE){ // "Delete" the cookie setcookie("var","",time() - 3600); } echo "Here I am *still* using my session variable, it's value is ".$_SESSION['var']." and it will expire when the browser closes"; Marc -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Hi Tedd, Normally I'd agree with this but having never used the function session_set_cookie_params() before, I looked it up, and the manual says to put it before session_start(). "Set cookie parameters defined in the php.ini file. The effect of this function only lasts for the duration of the script. Thus, you need to call session_set_cookie_params() for every request and before session_start() is called.
