If the above is true then I would assume (that always gets me in trouble) that in my next program (update_db.php) I would capture the input data the same.

This topic has been moved to PHP Applications. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=346652.0 Hi, I'm trying to make an error message appear when a user misses a text field, or fills in an error. All the errors are sent to a form.php, this then sends the error message back to the current page. Here is the code I am using to retrieve the error message: if($form->error = ("user")){ echo $form->error("user"); } if($form->error = ("pass")){ echo $form->error("pass"); } Which works fine, but I only want ONE error message to be displayed at a time. This IS what I want: There are two fields, user, and password. If the user fails to enter anything into both, only one error message will appear "Please enter your username" (which is what the form.php does). When the user fills in the username, but fails to fill in the password then it works, only one error message appears (as there is only one error to send) When the user fills in the password, but fails to fill in the username it also works, only one error message appears. Its just when the user fails to fill in either, it prints both error messages when I only want it to print the 'user' error message. Please help, Thanks i am trying to build a payment gate way library do you think this is the best way of going about it requirements code to be flexible for different naming conventions to conform with standards not to break why i am thinking of doing it this way one application could have for addressline1 as add_1 while i different app will have it as add_line_1 $test2 = "yay"; $test = 'a:1:{s:6:"teatme";s:5:"test2";}'; // think of this a a db field $test = unserialize($test); echo"<pre style=\"text-align:left;\">"; print_r($test); echo"</pre>"; foreach ($test as $key => $value) { $test[$key] = $$value; } echo"<pre style=\"text-align:left;\">"; print_r($test); echo"</pre>"; please give us your thoughts This topic has been moved to PHP Math Help. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=320840.0 I'm trying to connect to a SOAP API using PHP-SOAP. The problem is that the API is not adhering to the SOAP standard entirely. The SOAP Headers XML which the SOAP client needs to generate are as follows: Code: [Select] <SOAP-ENV:Header> <TargetVolume>foo</TargetVolume> </SOAP-ENV:Header> The problem is that the PHP SoapHeader class requires namespaces to be set for SOAP Header child elements (as in the standard). My code goes: Code: [Select] $ns = 'http://some.namespace.com'; $header = new SoapHeader($ns,'TargetVolume','foo'); $soapClient->__setHeaders($header); which produces: Code: [Select] <SOAP-ENV:Header> <ns1:TargetVolume>foo</ns1:TargetVolume> </SOAP-ENV:Header> Unfortunately 1. the SOAP API I'm using doesn't accept the ns1 namespace - or any namespace 2. The SoapHeader constructor does not accept NULL as its first parameter 3. I can't change the API! This is not a bug in PHP. See the discussion at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=31755 which details that it's invalid in SOAP to use a namespace here. I am stuck in between a rock and a hard place with finding a work-around for this problem: to somehow get PHP-SOAP to send the required non-standard header to the API. Can anybody help? I am currently working on my PHP/MySQL driven website. However, I have read in recent weeks that there are a number of security measures which need to be taken and one of them is sanitising input to prevent html/MySQL injection into a database. So I was wondering if there is an 'industry standard' for sanitising PHP. For example, if a website only want there database to be searched by letters or numbers do they use a specific code? I have found one based on numbers (for ID numbers) but I cant find on one based on letters. I found this but it is quite complicated and looks very different to the guide I found on YouTube. so is there an industry standard which blocks people using any other code than numbers or letters? http://bobby-tables.com/php.html I was also wondering is there are anyother security measures I need to be aware of when using PHP? Specifically for hashing a password to be stored in a database. I know SHA1 and MD5 are essentially considered broken. I've been using MD5 with a salt value on all my projects but I'm starting a new project and wondering if there's a stronger algorithm I should be using? Hi there, I'm wondering If anyone can assist me. I am currently a design student In Leeds, UK. I'm currently creating an online campaign whereby customers use QR codes to link to a created website with interesting youtube video on. At the moment I've just created a simple link to the chosen content http://newmedia.leeds.ac.uk/ug10/cs10dw/culture.html However I've come across Youtube API Standard feeds on the Youtube Reference Guide. http://code.google.com/apis/youtube/2.0/reference.html It states you can 'send a GET request to the URL associated with that feed', however, I've never really touched php before. Could anyone give me advise on how I would link say the Top rated feed to my site using https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/standardfeeds/top_rated Would that be difficult? ANY replies would be much appreciated! Regards David.

I run a website using xmb forums software as a base login script to connect to my database and created my own crude and simple pages for adding and displaying the data learning as I went. Over the years with recent upgrades of php versions its now virtually useless and unsecure code. I archive a lot of news articles but have had trouble pasting text that includes apostrophe's and special characters, but managed to fix that using addslashes() now. Can someone suggest a tutorial or a way to rebuild my site from scratch or something I can use as a template to connect to my pages ?.

why ?
