I would like to add some graphing capability to an app of mine. What package is recommended? I don't need anything too fancy, just some bar graphs, pie charts, etc.

Thank you in advance.

Officially it's still in alpha, but works like a charm.

Hi All,

Having a grey brain moment here and need some advise on the logic of
this, should be simple, login script.

I am checking validity of

customer number
customer email
customer password (md5 in mysql)

So i have my form with relevant fields

Now i am getting problems with either sql or how i am handling , and
showing, and errors.....

I think what i am asking is this

If someone just hits the login button show error "All fields must be
entered"

If customer number dose not excist show relevant error

If customer number ok but email not show error

If customer number ok but email ok but password is not show error

If all is ok set sessions, got this ok, and proceed.

Any help with with this is very much appreciated.

Kind Regards

In login scripts you usually don't tell which part of the login is wrong,
otherwise, you are hinting at what is right. Once the customer is logged
in, you are right to be as helpful as possible, but until the customer
proves who he/she is, you don't give away anything.

I'm not totally clear what the question was in there. Personally I keep
this simple...

<?php
$_POST['number'] =
         (isset($_POST['number']) ? trim($_POST['number']) : '');
$_POST['email'] =
         (isset($_POST['email']) ? trim($_POST['email']) : '');

if (empty($_POST['number']) or
     empty($_POST['email']) or
     empty($_POST['password']))
{
     die('All fields must be entered');
}

// Find the customer/user/whatever you need from the given details

if (<<not found>>)
{
     die('Unable to locate customer/user/whatever');
}

// Set up the session here, or however you're tracking the
// current customer/user/whatever

header('Location: /somewhere_else');
?>

Hope that helps.

Hi Stut,

I think i have found where i am going wrong.....

Its in the comparison login for the db result.

So i select * from jfjfjfjf where custno=$_POST[number]

But now i am getting messed up with if cust no not found then all i get
is a blank page but hoping for an error

And i dont think i am comparing the db result with the $_POST correctly

Struggling here a bit :-(

because you get an empty result set if no match is found
so check it like

if ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
 // ok, found
} else {
 // not found, error
}

or whatever sql you use

hope that helps

be aware that you need a session_write_close(); before header('Location...
or the session data might not be written to disk!

Hey,

*** Warning: feeling a bit braindead today after working long hours yesterday so please excuse if some parts are crappy***

I have a pal who uses a htpasswd file for access to his site..

rather than using basic_auth he wants to change it to form based _without_ a DB (ie user comes to his site and enters the username and password into a form, then submits it to the php script, the php script reads the htpasswd file and accordingly grants access or denies access if the login does not match)

Am not so sure about this but before i can make an arguement against this, I should know something myself so my questions to you more knowledgeable guys are:
1. Is it such a good idea switching?
2.Wont the basic_auth pop up anyway even after entering these values into the form?
3. If having a hundreds (or even thousands) of user:pass combinations in the htpasswd file.... wont it make logging in longer and more processor intensive to search all of the combinations till you find (or not find) the login?

Did some small code experiments before coming here asking for advise...
can send you the code I have written if need be...but what i have found out is with small amounts of data i see no difference in speed of loggin in using the htpasswd file as the "login database"..

Thanks for any input on the above.

Cheers!

Hello all,

I am trying to populate a dropdown list to contain the current year to 10
years in the future. Below is the code I'm using:

<?PHP
  for ($y=0;$y<=10;$y++) {
  $years=date <http://php.net/date>('Y')+$y;
  $short_years=date <http://php.net/date>('y')+$y;
  echo "$short_years";
  echo "<option value=\"$short_years\">$years</option>";
  }
?>
I want the selection value to be 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010.... and the $years
accomplishes this. Howeverm I want the option value to be the two digit
year ex. 07, 08, 09, 10...the $short_years semi accomplishes this....instead
of getting 07, 08, 08, 10 I get 7, 8, 9, 10...how can I get it to output the
two year for 07, 08, 09 without it cutting off the zero?

Reagrds,

Dan

<?php

$year = date( 'Y' );
for( $i = 0; $i < 10; $i++ )
{
    $iYear = substr( (string)($year + 1), 2 );
    echo '<option value="'.$iYear.'">'.$iYear.'</option>';
}

?>

Bleh... Typo in the above... so here's a better one :)

<?php

$currYear = date( 'Y' );
for( $i = 0; $i < 10; $i++ )
{
    $longYear = $currYear + $i;
    $shortYear = substr( (string)$longYear, 2 );
    echo '<option value="'.$shortYear.'">'.$longYear.'</option>';
}

?>

I think it is because when you calculate $short_years it is an integer.
So insert the following before echoing it out:

if ($short_years < 10) {$short_years = "0" . $short_years;}

hope that helps

Thanks to all -- got all of this working fine. Mostly my syntax was a

Hi, folks -- - -

For security and efficiency, I am trying to store PHP scripts in
MySQL tables. Only problem: I can't get them to execute.

In a template:
----------------------------------------
$php_code = $this->ApplicationObject->GetStoredCode($whichpage);

echo $php_code; // doesn't execute

print_r($php_code); // doesn't execute, either
----------------------------------------

I've looked for some kind of exec_script() function without luck.

I can't be the first one to have done this. Any ideas or resources
you can point me to?

Thank you -- - -

Yeah, that was it. Thanks, Thomas.

Hi all,

I want replace the "|" (pipe) and the " " (space) chars where are between " (double-quotes) by an underscore "_" with the preg_replace(); funtction.

Can someone help me to find the correct regex.

Thanks in advance

Seb

I am not a very experienced programmer, but I think that "str_replace"
can be used in this case:
$new_string=str_replace('|', '_', $old_string)

then use the same function to replace spaces.

I have tasted the code and it worked fine (if I got you right):

$old_string="lazy \"|\" dog";
$new_string=str_replace('"|"', '_', $old_string);
print $new_string;

I got "lazy_dog"

Try this one:

$old_string="lazy \"some chars|some chars\" dog";
$new_string=str_replace('|', '_', $old_string);
print $new_string;

This always works for me:

if (preg_match_all("!\"(.+)\"!sU", $var, $match))
{
  for ($i=0; $i<count($match[0]); $i++)
  {
    $old = $match[1][$i];
    $new = preg_replace("!\|| !", "_", $old);
    $var = str_replace("\"$old\"", "\"$new\"", $var);
  }
}

nice !

thanks Steffen & Ed !

i've just add '[src|background] *= *' to make sure that the replacement
takes effect only in THML tag's attributes

if (preg_match_all("![src|background] *= *\"(.+)\"!sU", $htmlContent,
$match))
{
  for ($i=0; $i<count($match[0]); $i++)
  {
    $old = $match[1][$i];
    $new = preg_replace("!\|| !", "_", $old);
    $htmlContent = str_replace("\"$old\"", "\"$new\"", $htmlContent);
  }
}

Maybe you just mistyped that, but this would *probably* also match on s=""
or bar="", cause [ and ] are metacharacters.
