PHP - Trouble With Is_writable

Hi Chaps,

I have a PHP FTP App, where users can log in using a unique code and a password.

Their unique code corresponds to an FTP folder, e.g.
Quote

\FTP_Root\Customer A & Co\


So when the user logs in, they can see their FTP directory and contents, in this case an Inbox and an Outbox.
This works as the FTP folder contains both an Inbox and an Outbox.

The problem I am having is when I try browsing within this directory (say the Inbox), ftp-chdir fails.

I have a hyperlink that sends a 'dir' parameter to the same ftp.php page, and if set, will attempt to change to the given directory.

So even though the URL Hyperlink reads:
Quote

....server.co.uk/ftp.php?dir=/FTP_Root/Customer A & Co/Inbox


When you click on this link, the page tries to load:
Quote

....server.co.uk/ftp.php?dir=/FTP_Root/Customer A


So my question is what do I need to change, the Hyperlink to read something like:
Quote

....server.co.uk/ftp.php?dir=/FTP_Root/Customer%20A%20&%20Co/Inbox



Do something to the ftp-chdir function, where I encode/decode/whatever to make sure it tries to change to the correct FTP directory?

Or exclude all ampersand entirely?

Building a website for work. I am struggling with the login for some reason. I`m using a lot of the same code as I did for my personal site and a few other websites I`ve programmed which has always worked. But for some reason, it isn`t working now. I`ve already told it to display to me the information that`s being processed and that is all correct (it even updates the database like it`s supposed to). It just won`t show the person being logged in, which defeats the purpose of logging in, yanno?

Here are all the files in question.

Can anyone see why it works on everything but getting the person logged in?

Hello everyone,

I am new to this forum and PHP world. Doing my first project, a pretty complicated one to start with. I will be needing your help a lot to accomplish it.
Here is the first one.

1. I have a certain field called 'country'
2. I have small flag icons for every country.

WHAT DO I WANT TO DO?

Example - If the country is U.S.A., the U.S. flag shows up and is a link to www.domain.com/usa
If the country is Germany, the German flags shows up and is a link to www.domain.com/germany
If the country is not set, no flag shows up. END.

How do I execute this?

This is what I am doing to get the image
<img src="images/flags/<?php echo $row_rsPilots['country']; ?>.gif" alt="" name="Flag" width="20" height="20" id="Flag" />

How do make it a link to www.domain.com/'country'

Thanks in advance

in my login script i have the following which searches for the username they inputted and then adds their user id to the table sessions in the database.

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM ".DB_PREFIX."members WHERE user_username = '$username' AND user_password = '$password'");
        
            if(mysql_num_rows($result) != 1)
            {
                $val_error = 'Username and Password incorrect.';
            }
                else
                {
                 $row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
                    $browser = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];
                    $_SESSION['user_id'] = $row['user_id'];
                    $_SESSION['session'] = session_id();
                    mysql_query("INSERT INTO ".DB_PREFIX."sessions 
                    VALUES(NULL, '".$_SESSION['user_id']."', '".$_SESSION['session']."', '".$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']."', '".$_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']."', '".date('Y-m-d')."')");
                    
                    if ($_SESSION['backpage']) 
                    {
                    header('Location: '.$_SESSION['backpage']);
                    } else {
                    
                    header('Location: index.php');
                    }
                }

 then on pages which i want only logged in members to access i have the following:

if ($_SESSION['user_id'] == '') {
header ('Location: '.SITE_ROOT.'/login.php');
} else { REST OF CODE }

but when i login and try to access a page which requires you to be logged in i am directed back to index.php. I have nothing which does that. if you are not logged in you are redirected to login.php but it doesnt seem to work.
Any ideas?

could someone help me with this.  here is what I have:

<?php require_once('dbinfo.php'); ?>

<?php

mysql_connect($dbaddress,$username,$password);
mysql_select_db($db) or die("Cannot find database!");

/*
$query = "SELECT * FROM contacts";
$result = mysql_query($query);
$numRows = mysql_numrows($result);
$i = 0;

while ($i < $numRows) {
echo mysql_result($result, $i, "first") . " " . mysql_result($result, $i, "last");
$i++;
  }

*/

$fname = 'WrdScramble()';
$ftype = 'DAO';
$fdesc = 'Randomly rearranges the characters in a string or word.';
$fcode = '';

$query = "INSERT INTO functions VALUES ('','$fname','$fcode','$ftype','$fdesc')";
mysql_query($query);
print($query);

//$query = "SELECT fcode FROM contacts WHERE first = 'code'";
//$result = mysql_query($query);
//$numRows = mysql_numrows($result);
//$fcode = mysql_result($result, 0, "fcode");

?>


<?

//close connection
mysql_close();

?>


It is not inserting the data into the database, and if I use:

mysql_error()

and print it out, I get nothing with that either.  I am not sure where to go!  I also have used this:

(fid, fname, fcode, ftype, fdesc)

preceeding the 'VALUES' word in the statement just to see if it would take.  No luck!  Do I not see the obvious?  Any help appreciated!  thanks!  (I have checked my field types and max length in PHPmyadmin and they are not an issue.)
