Not saying I disagree with you..... which is why i tossed it out
there as an FYI rather than anything else. But its something that you
should be aware of when designing a site and weighing your options.
For me, working for a governmental institution, I really don't have a
choice. I can't throw anything into the website that has a negative
ADA impact.... unless of course I have an alternate way of
accomplishing the same thing.
And yes, there is an argument that screen-readers should keep up with
the technology, and I totally agree with you..... but that's not
reality. Target.com got sued recently for lack of ADA compliance on
their website. The screen reading software company wasn't the one sued.
YMMV.

Yeah, wheelchairs can move along a sidewalk, so what's stopping them
from walking up and down stairs? If you haven't written an open source
browser on par with mozilla for blind people, it's IMO polite to not
raise the bar for them unless necessary. KISS and all that.

I think 'correct' was the wrong word. still thinking what the right word
should be.
bare in mind I was playing devil's advocate rather than defending a particular
stance.

of course the level of requirement/functional specification one can do is
dependant on (at least) 2 things:
1. budget - building a small (<5000 euros) site leaves not much money for developing
detailed specs, it easy enough to blow 5 grand on a preliminary investigation let
alone something that resembles a fullblown spec.
2. client - can the client even comprehend the specs and the ramifications they entail,
a small local business has no idea (or interest) in the problems, ramifications and
technicalities of site building - he/she "just want's a website".

no doubt the economics of greed - technically it possible to, I mean Honda
built a freakin' robot that runs up stair and I seen multiple axel wheelchairs
on TV more than 15 years ago (anyone in England know the 'Tomorrows World'
program from the time when it was still about real science? ;-) that were capable
of traversing stairs.
but applying the extreme accessiblity mantra to the stairs analogy would mean
making stairs more or less illegal. should we sue companies out of existence because
they have a set of stairs? should stairs be illegal?
> If you haven't written an open source
> browser on par with mozilla for blind people,
has anyone actually achieved that? actually my comment was aimed purely
at commercial software, which, for now, AFAICT is the only real option for
disabled people - and it's not a cheap option either, so the bar is
set very high in the economic sense, disabled people in a low/no income
are often shut out purely on budgetary grounds.
should commercial vendors that supply tools to enable disabled people
be held to a [very] high standard?
additionally it could be said that the only feasible proposition is
to make the the enabling tools adapt to the environment they are intended
to make accessible? to return to the wheel chair analogy: it's completely
impractical to replace all stairs in the world with suitable ramps but it
is technically achievable to build a wheelchair that is capable
of navigating a world full of chairs.
> it's IMO polite to not
> raise the bar for them unless necessary. KISS and all that.
there are plenty of multi-billion dollar corporations that pay nothing more than
lip service to accessibility - those same companies are the examples alot of
my clients point at when telling me what they want. (I'm painting
with a broad brush here)
if I completely refuse to 'raise the bar' then I'm going to be flipping burgers
at sooner than I'd like - my clients will go else where.
so I'm stuck between doing 'the right thing' and paying the bills - all this
is rather a moot issue in a world where millions of disabled people don't even have access
to running water, let alone wheelchairs - so extending KISS approach all the way down the
line I would say fuck what's happening online completely and let's all try to make sure
everyone on the planet is clothed, fed, watered, is free for abuse/persecution and
has access to basic tools that make life bareable.
now I'm really playing devil's advocate :-> I have working legs and 20/20 vision,
I live in a properous western country (that boasts some of the most liberal laws on
the planet to boot) and I have a job that pays a decent wage! all this bla bla
doesn't really do much for any disabled person stuck in a mudhut in the middle africa.
rather a embarassing & painful reality I would hazard to say :-(
okay I'll shut up now, enough OT blabbing from me.

Thanks Jay for the function reference, but it doesn't seem like it's what I'm
after since the url is packed into the text.
What i really need is something that will take the first part of an array
cutting the remainder after a delimiter word '.com'.
Something along the lines of:
<?php
$boom[1] = "ranchy.stuff.com and other junk";
$input = $boom[1];
$out = array_slice($input, 0, 1);
?>
Part of my problem, I'm beginning to realize, is that the array '$boom[1]'
contains only one element. Is there a similar string function I could use
that would accomplish what I need?

If there isn't one you can always compose it from the ones already available.
That's programming.

Why not use explode with the period (.) as the delimiter?
$url = ranchy.stuff.com and other junk";
$boom = explode(".", $url);
print_r($boom);
$boom is now an array containing 'ranchy', 'stuff', 'com and other junk'

What I've done in situations like this is reverse the text and tackle it
from the _back_ end. It's a simpler approach to first trim off the TLD,
and then to extract only the (reversed) domain name. (Tho', it's not a
domain name without the TLD.)
Then, obviously, reverse your results.

This is what I am trying to do, and for the most part it works, but it also
may be causing some of my other problems.
If $event contains invalid characters, I am returning a string that says
"Invalid Characters" So $result now contains the value 'Invalid Characters'.
Then $formerror['event'] = $result - is self explanatory.
If there are no errors nothing is returned and $result should contain
anything. But this doesn't always seem to be the case. This is one of the
problems I am having.
This is the code in a nutshell.
if($result = ValidateString($event)) { $formerror['event'] = $result;
function ValidateString($string) {
if(!preg_match("/^[-A-Za-z0-9_.' ]+$/", $string)) {

In your regex you have a "." this will match anything
try this:
<plaintext><?php
function ValidateString($string) {
if ( preg_match("/[^a-zA-Z0-9\_\.\' -]+/", $string) ) {
return "Invalid Characters";
}
return false;
}
$formerror = array();
$formerror['firstAttempt'] = 'first attempt';
$formerror['secondAttempt'] = 'second attempt';
$event = "A-Z and a-z plus 0-9 and an '_' are allowed.";
if ( ( $result = ValidateString($event) ) !== false ) {
$formerror['firstAttempt'] = $result;
}
$event = "But bad chars like !#$ and %^&* are not allowed.";
if ( ( $result = ValidateString($event) ) !== false ) {
$formerror['secondAttempt'] = $result;
}
var_dump($formerror);
?>

That "." is inside a character class where it is a literal character
(matches only "."). Why are you backslashing the underscore is beyond
me.

The match will work either way right?

It's misleading. I don't want to be confronted with another legacy
program full of almost-reular expressions whose author didn't understand
the syntax at all, but was so stubborn that he eventually (using the
hit-and-miss method) found whatever garbage worked for him for
completely accidental reasons.

Hi Roman,
My English is not the best and I'm not sure what you mean. By looking at
the document you linked I'm thinking that the problem you're talking about
is not the '?var=value' but instead, the fact of being using a relative URL.
Am I correct?
If so, is there a way to know the full address of the index.php file?
I'm asking this because my IP is dynamic and I'm using a free redirection
service. My site is at 'http://something.no-ip.org/sitename' can I use
'http://something.no-ip.org/sitename/index.php?vaz=value' on the
Locarion header?
Thanks

You don't need to know your IP. See the grammar for AbsoluteURI:

It's not HTML, that's a completely different animal! HTTP is a transport
protocol, HTML is a document format. HTML documents are but one type
of things you can transport using HTTP.

Don't rely on browser bugs and features present to work around popular

Upgrade to a more recent version of php? with php5.2 i get 28, with
php version 4.4 i get 28.
You have to remember the last version of 4.2 was release on 6
September 2002, it is 2007 right now iirc.
See php.net/releases/ for more information.

Does your included PHP script contain any functions? Or is it more like:
file1.php contents:
function my_function () {
if (i_feel_like_it) {
include("inc.php");
}
}
and inc.php contains variables at the global level such as:
inc.php:
$var1 = 2;
$var2 = 3;
Am I close?

FYI, I just ran a quick scope test based on my guess of your
situation. If you include a PHP file containing global variables
inside a function, the variables will _only_ be available after you
include the file, and only for the duration of the function. They
will not exist after the function ends, even if you specify global
$var1; in your other functions, or at the global level of your script.
This was tested using PHP 5.0.4.
Here is my sample code:
test.php:
<?
print "Top Level: Var1: $var1 Var2: $var2\n<br>";
test1();
test2();
function test1 ()
{
print "Before: Var1: $var1 Var2: $var2\n<br>";
include("testinc.php");
print "After: Var1: $var1 Var2: $var2\n<br>";
}
function test2 ()
{
print "Test2: Var1: $var1 Var2: $var2\n<br>";
}
print "Bottom Level: Var1: $var1 Var2: $var2\n<br>";
testinc.php:
<?
$var1 = 1;
$var2 = 2;
?>

Thank you for your reply.
My problem is that the web addresses on the bottom right show at all
times as is instead of appearing only when active or selected on the
left top navigation!
Does that make sense?

Here is the code:
Here is the entire page:

// connect to database

// query a from client
$query = "SELECT * FROM client
where status='active' or status='old'
order by companyName";
$result = mysql_query($query)
or die ("Couldn't execute query");
while ($aaa = mysql_fetch_array($result,MYSQL_ASSOC))
{
echo "<span class='navCompany'>{$aaa['companyName']}</span><span
class='navArrow'> > </span>\n";
// query b from job
$query = "SELECT * FROM job
WHERE companyId='{$aaa['companyId']}'";
$result2 = mysql_query($query)
or die ("Couldn't execute query b");
foreach($aaa as $jobType)
{
$bbb = mysql_fetch_array($result2,MYSQL_ASSOC);
echo "<span class='navText'><a href='single_page_t2.php?art=".$bbb
['pix']."'>{$bbb['jobType']}</a></span>\n";
}

Hello,
Can someone here give me a glue how to do the following. I guess I need to
use regular expressions here. I have absolutely zero experience with regular
expressions. (if there's another way to do this I don't mind. I jus need to
get this done somehow :)
I need to strip all characters from the following text string exept the
image path...
"<img width=\"99\" height=\"120\" border=\"0\"
src=\"../../images/new/thumps/4123141112007590373240.jpg\" />"...and then
store the path to DB. Image path lengh can vary so I guess that I need to
extract all characters after scr=\" until next \" or somethig
similar.
Thanks for your advise!
