Hi there,

I was wondering if there is a way to display content on only my index.php page? I believe there is a way and I have done it before, but some of my pages use index.php?category etc.

Is there a way to show content just on index.php and not on any dynamic pages?

Thanks

Hi,

If the you/user is on index.php of http://www.domain.com/ show one page
If not show another

How would I do this?

Thanks

Quesion: Show each movie in the database on its own page, and give the user links in a "page 1, Page 2, Page 3" - type navigation system. Hint: Use LIMIT to control which movie is on which page. I have provided 3 files: 1st: configure DB, 2nd: insert data, 3rd: my code for the question. I would appreciate the help. I am a noob by the way.

First set up everything for DB:

<?php
//connect to MySQL
$db = mysql_connect('localhost', 'root', '000') or
    die ('Unable to connect. Check your connection parameters.');

//create the main database if it doesn't already exist
$query = 'CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS moviesite';
mysql_query($query, $db) or die(mysql_error($db));

//make sure our recently created database is the active one
mysql_select_db('moviesite', $db) or die(mysql_error($db));

//create the movie table
$query = 'CREATE TABLE movie (
        movie_id        INTEGER UNSIGNED  NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
        movie_name      VARCHAR(255)      NOT NULL,
        movie_type      TINYINT           NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,
        movie_year      SMALLINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,
        movie_leadactor INTEGER UNSIGNED  NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,
        movie_director  INTEGER UNSIGNED  NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,

        PRIMARY KEY (movie_id),
        KEY movie_type (movie_type, movie_year)
    )
    ENGINE=MyISAM';
mysql_query($query, $db) or die (mysql_error($db));

//create the movietype table
$query = 'CREATE TABLE movietype (
        movietype_id    TINYINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
        movietype_label VARCHAR(100)     NOT NULL,
        PRIMARY KEY (movietype_id)
    )
    ENGINE=MyISAM';
mysql_query($query, $db) or die(mysql_error($db));

//create the people table
$query = 'CREATE TABLE people (
        people_id         INTEGER UNSIGNED    NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
        people_fullname   VARCHAR(255)        NOT NULL,
        people_isactor    TINYINT(1) UNSIGNED NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,
        people_isdirector TINYINT(1) UNSIGNED NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,

        PRIMARY KEY (people_id)
    )
    ENGINE=MyISAM';
mysql_query($query, $db) or die(mysql_error($db));

echo 'Movie database successfully created!';
?>

second file to load info into DB:



<?php
// connect to MySQL
$db = mysql_connect('localhost', 'root', '000') or
    die ('Unable to connect. Check your connection parameters.');

//make sure you're using the correct database

// insert data into the movie table
$query = 'INSERT INTO movie

        (1, "Bruce Almighty", 5, 2003, 1, 2),

        (3, "Grand Canyon", 2, 1991, 4, 3)';
mysql_query($query, $db) or die(mysql_error($db));

// insert data into the movietype table
$query = 'INSERT INTO movietype
        (movietype_id, movietype_label)

MY CODE FOR THE QUESTION:


<?php
$db = mysql_connect('localhost', 'root', '000') or
die ('Unable to connect. Check your connection parameters.');

mysql_select_db('moviesite', $db) or die(mysql_error($db));

//get our starting point for the query from the URL
if (isset($_GET['offset'])) {
   $offset = $_GET['offset'];
} else {
   $offset = 0;
}

//get the movie
$query  = 'SELECT
   movie_name, movie_year
FROM
   movie
ORDER BY
   movie_name
LIMIT ' . $offset . ' , 1';
$result = mysql_query($query, $db) or die(mysql_error($db));
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
?>

i'm running code on what i only want to be the HOME page, but the current site it built using GET variables with index.php

needless to say, the home page is accessed either as domain.com/ or domain.com/index.php - i'm hoping someone can show me how to check for this condition, that it is only index.php without anything further

I'm only slightly familiar with $_SERVER['uri'], etc... So i don't know just what to ask.

thanks for anyone's help.

I have two files

an sample.html which has just a search box some javascript on it to display images when users start typing on this search box.

the sample.html  works when i entre localhost\index.html

now, i have an index.php.

when i

include("index1.html");

the search box appears but the javascript does not work?

why? 

do i need to relink the following in my sample.html???
<script type="text/javascript"  src="autocomplete/lib/jquery.js"></script>
<script type='text/javascript' src='jquery.autocomplete.js'></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="jquery.autocomplete.css" />

fyi i am using wordpress.

An open question this, and one that may or may not bear fruit. But here we go anyway.

index.php is a special case I feel because it is often the default script that is called for a web site. Moreover, I keep mine in the freely available root directory, but the rest of my php is out of the root for security purposes - in a directory called "lib".

The app I am working on at the present time requires that a user logs on first. So, the code I have in my index.php is very simple:

Code: [Select]
<?php

/* Require Log In */

require("lib/ezLogin.php");

?>

This at least is what I have presently. So I have a few questions:

1. Is treating index.php as a special case, a reasonable approach would you say?
2. Is the separation of the rest of the non-client php files a real security improvement?
3. When you declare the css path, do you use absolute path names? If so, how might it be done so it will work on local (testing) AND the main server (production) with no code change?
4. includes_path - I assume this is the path to the includes directory. However, I am not sure/happy/comfortable with this just yet. Can more than one path be included in this? (I have Googled around but still unhappy) If so, how so? Does this approach works across platforms? If not, is there a way to make it?

Many thanks for any help.

So I've searched for a few hours already, and decided to give in to asking on a forums.

On the site I'm working on, I want the navigation to look like www.website.com/index.php?id=2 instead of www.website.com/contacts.htm

Also, the way I did it before, I renamed my main home page as 'main.php' and when you go to the site, index.php will display what's on main.php, but will still show www.website.com/index.php?id=1.

I've done it before a few years ago, but I lost the site and forgot how to do it. I'm pretty sure there's a if/else if statement that comes into play, but I don't remember. I hope this all makes sense.

Thanks 

Some code from my pages ,   Page1 ( Redirecting page )

<html>
<title>login_redirect.</title>
body>

<form name="redirect" action="http://mysite/page2.php" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="mac" value="$(mac)">
</form>

<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
document.redirect.submit();
//-->
</script>
</body>
</html>

Page 2 ( select product )

<?php


session_start();

ini_set('display_errors',1);
error_reporting(E_ALL); 

include '../lib/config.php';
include '../lib/opendb.php';

// get user mac adres from redirect post page1
$_SESSION['macid'] = $_POST['mac'];
// set $macid for other use ( maybe not needed, am learning )
$macid = $_SESSION['macid'];

// echo $macid does show mac adress, so variable is not empty here


if (!empty($_POST["submit"]))

{
$product_choice = $_POST['accounttype'];
$query= "SELECT AccountIndex, AccountCost, AccountName FROM AccountTypes WHERE AccountIndex='$product_choice'";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die('Query failed. ' . mysql_error()); 
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
$_SESSION['AccountIndex'] = $row['AccountIndex'];
$_SESSION['AccountCost'] = $row['AccountCost'];
$_SESSION['AccountName'] = $row['AccountName'];
}


header('Location: page3.php');

}

// did leave out the other/html/form stuff here

Page 3 ( show Session variables )

<?php


ini_set('display_errors',1);
error_reporting(E_ALL); 

session_start();

print_r($_SESSION);

?>

Now, on page 3 i do see the right session varables, only the "macid" is empty.   why ?    

i got a problem on undefined index...but if i use Xampp i can run in nicely with our error..but in wamp it say undefined index...

what i supposed to do.... so that i can run it in both xampp and wamp nicely

Hi I am new in PHP scripting.
