PHP - Php Double Quotes In Input

 

same(this.getParams['vb'], ab.fill(), 'vb test');

    Expected: false
Result: "false"
Diff:     
false "false"   Please tell me how to fix this problem.

for print html : What's Better, Faster and Optimized ?!?

Code: [Select]
echo "<tr height=\"22\">
    <form action = \"{$URL}/admin/edit.php\" method=\"POST\">
      <input type=\"hidden\" name=\"login\">
      <td width=\"15%\" bgcolor=\"$bgcolor\">&nbsp;<input type = \"text\" name = \"login\" value=" . $f['login'] . "></td>
      <td width=\"15%\" bgcolor=\"$bgcolor\">&nbsp; <input type = \"password\" name = \"password\" value=" . $f['pass'] . "> </td>
    </form>
        </tr>";

With PHP Method 2 : ( single )

Code: [Select]
echo ' <tr><form action = "' . URL . '/admin/editadmins.php" method="POST"> ';
 echo ' <td align="left" valign="top"><input type = "text" name = "login" value = "' . $f['login'] . '"></td>';
 echo ' <td align="left" valign="top"><input type = "password" name = "password" value = "' . $f['pass'] . '"></td></form></tr>';

Method 3 : (With Html And Php echo )

Code: [Select]
<tr height="22">
<form action = "../admin/editadmins.php" method="POST">
<td align="left" valign="top"><input type = "text" name = "login" value = "<?PHP echo $f['login']; ?>"></td>
<td align="left" valign="top"><input type = "text" name = "password" value = "<?PHP echo $f['pass']; ?>"></td>
</form>

Thanks.

Is there a difference between a single quote regex and and double quote regex ?   for example :

<?php
$res1 = preg_match('/shi*t/', $comment);
$res2 = preg_match("/shi*t/", $comment);
?>

Thank you

I have created a simple form that collects a comment or question from a visitor to my website.

The problem is that if the visitor types:
Your site looks Ok.
I will get that message.

But if the type: Your site needs "Work".
I will get: Your site needs

The script will not send the double quotes or anything after the double quotes

What am I missing???

I have tried:
addslashes()
str_replace()
preg_replace()

with on change to the message.



This is the script

Code: [Select]
<?php

$recipient = $_POST['recipient'];
$subject = $_POST['subject'];
$first_name = $_POST['first_name'];
$last_name = $_POST['last_name'];
$senders_email_address = $_POST['senders_email_address'];
$comments = $_POST['comments'];

$mailheaders .= "To: Thin Dime Web. <$recipient>\n";
$mailheaders .= "From: $first_name $last_name <$senders_email_address>\n";



       $body .= "Subject: $subject\n\n";
       $body .= "Senders Name: $first_name $last_name\n";
       $body .= "E-mail Address: $senders_email_address\n\n";

       $body .= "The following Comments or Question came from a visitor to your website\n";
       $body .= "\n";
       $body .= "$comments\n";


       mail("$recipient", "$subject", "$body", "$mailheaders");

?>

When I add a ' or " quotes in a textarea I get a sql error when it tries to insert the record.    I was told to use mysqli_real_escape_string but that didn't work.    Here's my code -

   $blog= mysqli_real_escape_string($con, $_POST['blog']);
   

        $blog= $_POST['message'];
            
        $sql = "SELECT * FROM table WHERE `message` = '{$message}'";
        
        $result = mysql_query($sql);
        
        if ( mysql_num_rows ( $result ) > 0 )
        {
                        
            $error = "Message Exists.";
        }
        
        else
        {
        
         $error = "This message does not exist. Insert it!!!";
        
         $sql="INSERT INTO table (message) VALUES ('$_POST[message])";
        
        
        }
        
        if (!mysqli_query($con,$sql))
         {
         die('Error: ' . mysqli_error($con));
         }
        
        mysqli_close($con)

Hi all

I have a field in mySQL table called dimensions. It has the double quote in in for inches - "

When I echo the result from the mySQL query on the item page (Customer facing) it's fine. However, I have built a form so that the administrator can edit the dimensions in the admin panel and when I echo it out in to the form field it stops when it gets to the double quotes?

I have a navigation list displaying which is a mix of html and php, everything is working fine however now I want to convert this block of code into a function but am having major problems with quotes.

The line of code I currently have is 

$data = $db->query("SELECT * FROM menu")->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);

foreach ($data as $row) { ?>
     <li><a href="<?php echo $row['url']; ?>" title="<?php echo $row['title']; ?>"><?php echo $row['icon'] . ' ' . $row['header']; ?></a></li>

<?php
	}
?>

As I say everything works using the above but now I am trying to echo the full li out and am having major issues with single and double quotes.

I currently have 

echo "<li><a href='#' title='the title'><i class='fas fa-user site-nav--icon'></i> Help</a></li>";

Now I am trying to use the $row['url'], $row['title'], $row['icon'] & $row['header'] as per the top example but I cannot get the combination of quote marks correct, whether to use double, single or a combination.

I would be grateful if someone could suggest the correct syntax for the a tag then I can work through the rest.

Thanks

Quotation marks are confusing me.   What do you guys use when it comes to quotation marks?   In HTML attributes and throughout the bodies of my web pages, I use the HTML entity (&quot;). For example:

<a href="" title="Read &quot;Article Name&quot;">

<p>In his new book, he says: &quot;This is a quote.&quot;</p>

I thought that this is the best practice.   However, today, I read that it's perfectly safe to use straight quotes (") in the body, and that I should use the HTML entity only in HTML attributes.   Is that correct?   But what if I want to use curly quotes in the body instead of straight quotes? Should I always use the HTML entities for curly quotes (&ldquo; and &rdquo;), or can I also safely use the characters (“”)?   I heard that straight quotes are safe in all browsers, even if you don't specify the character set of your web pages, but that curly quotes are only safe if you specify the character set or if you use the HTML entities.   Is that true?   And what about the <q> tag? Apparently, it's compatible with all browsers but they treat it differently.

The fancy-looking quotes won't insert into my DB, so I'm trying to convert them to %93 & %94 or normal quotes.    Nothing I've tried works.   Code:   $fancy=" “test” ";
$fixed=htmlentities($old, ENT_QUOTES);   echo "fancy: $fancy<br>"; echo "fixed: $fixed";

Results:

fancy: “test”
fixed:   I want $fixed to be %93test%94, or even "test" would work.

Hello,

Using the following code, I'm extracting the $current_solution from my database.  However, if the variable has quotes in it, I get gobbledegook.  Code: [Select]
<input type ="radio" name="solution" <?php  echo 'value="' . $current_solution . '"' ?> id="solution" <?php if ($row['solution'] == $current_solution) {echo 'checked = "yes"';} ?>/><?php echo$current_solution; ?></label>
As an example, if the $current_solution variable is:  A right-side up letter u   then I get:

" id="solution" checked = "yes"/>
A right-side up letter "u".

I know that it's a quote issue but am not sure how to fix it.  I tried adding slashes but I fear that it didn't work.  Any thoughts on this would be appreciated!

Thanks so much,

Eric

i have some code which checks to see if a username  and an email is in use. from what i can understand, it uses magic quotes to prevent sql injection. i've heard that magic quotes are not going to be in use in php6, so how can i change it so that it uses real escape string instead?

if (!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
$_POST['username'] = addslashes($_POST['username']);
}
$usercheck = $_POST['username'];
$check = mysql_query("SELECT username FROM users WHERE username = '$usercheck'") 
or die(mysql_error());
$check2 = mysql_num_rows($check);
if ($check2 != 0) {
die('Sorry, the username '.$_POST['username'].' is already in use.');
}

if (!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
$_POST['email'] = addslashes($_POST['email']);
}
$emailcheck = $_POST['email'];
$check = mysql_query("SELECT email FROM users WHERE email = '$emailcheck'") 
or die(mysql_error());
$check2 = mysql_num_rows($check);
if ($check2 != 0) {
die('Sorry, the email '.$_POST['email'].' is already registered to another account.');
}


Thanks

Hi, newbie here.
Could someone show me how to properly escape the quotes in this code so it works properly? I'm having major problems with it, thanks.

echo "<td style="background-color:#fff"
 onMouseover="this.style.backgroundColor='#ff9900';"
 onMouseout="this.style.backgroundColor='#fff';">"

My old server had magic_quotes_gpc turned on. My new one does not.
Will mysql_real_escape_string solve all the issues that magic_quotes was used for?
My site runs a blogging application and it seems some of the templates which contain a lot of html and css do not insert into the database properly even when using mysql_real_escape_string.

Thanks,

Brian
