PHP - Tag Automatically Closing
Hi Guys,
I have the following $pattern = '<tr class="newsitem">'; when I echo this out it produces <tr class="newsitem"> </tr> Why is it automatically closing the tag? I dont want this becuase i'm using preg_replace and the tag is closed elsewhere already on the page. Similar TutorialsHello, I'm working on a page where users can add articles by writing text in textareas with a WYSIWYG editor. When they submit the form it's saved in a database. As a summary of the article i grab the first 800 characters of the article, but as you could imagine there might occur html tags like <div> or <span> in the summary which are not closed. To prevent this from ruining my page layout when their articles are posted on the wegbsite I could use strip_tags but I'd like to keep the format, also this would delete images. I couldn't think of another solution then a function which checks for open tags and if so; add closing tags at the end of the summary. I already made a similar function a while back, but that one only checks for <div> and <span>, as those are the worst.. The nasty part is that I kind of deleted that function accidentally, and I can't fully remember how I wrote that.. So what I would like to have is a function that checks for all unclosed html tags and add the associated closing tags, in the right order, at the end of the summary. Any help getting on the right track is appreciated. Hi, I wonder if there is any simple solution for the following. I have a login script (existing script modified for my site) that pops up in greybox (found at: orangoo.com/labs/GreyBox/). When clicked on Login a function is called which checks if the login is correct an then goes to a page. This is written in PHP. To refer to an page the following code is used => header ("Location: index.php"); This is working but off course the referral page is opened inside the greybox. I would like the greybox to close and the index.php page to reload. You can see what I'm trying on www.mypersonalad.org click "Aanmelden" in the upper left corner. Login: "testing" pass: "test". Please don't hack I have only heard about injection and have no protection for the moment. That's for later. I've tried adding code like this in php => header("Location: index.php onclick=\"parent.parent.GB_hide();\""); But that is not working. My thoughts are that I should check in my login page (the one in greybox) if the user is already logged in. If he is logged in give a message like: "You are now logged in. This page closes automatically in 2 seconds". But I don't know how to do this. Any help please? Hi Have an issue with a script that connects to multiple Access databases to extract data. There is one master database and then numerous small databases (I take no responsibility for the design!). The master is opened and then the sub databases are looped around, opened process and closed in turn. However after about 20 connections I get the error [ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Too many client tasks for any new connections. It is related to the number of connections rather than the number of operations on databases (ie, if I comment out one of the pieces of SQL run on each database it makes no difference). I am closing the connection and unsetting the variable that stores the connection. As such there shouldn't be an excess of connections open at any one time. Any suggestions? All the best Keith I was curious.. I read that after using a PDO connection you should set the object to null to close it out. In this instance: Code: [Select] function IsOwner($regionid, $user) { global $Username, $SQL_Server, $SQL_User, $SQL_Pass; $pdo = new PDO("mysql:host=$SQL_Server;dbname=$SQL_Database", $SQL_User, $SQL_Pass); $sql = $pdo->prepare("SELECT count(region_id) FROM region_players WHERE region_id = ? AND user_id = ? AND owner = 1"); $sql->execute(array($regionid, $user)); if ($sql->rowCount() == 0) { return false; } else { return true; } $pdo = null; } Since the return is called prior to the nulling, does it leave a connection hanging or does PHP do some sort of auto-closeout when a function ends? Should I instead be doing: Code: [Select] function IsOwner($regionid, $user) { global $Username, $SQL_Server, $SQL_User, $SQL_Pass; $ownerstatus = false; $pdo = new PDO("mysql:host=$SQL_Server;dbname=$SQL_Database", $SQL_User, $SQL_Pass); $sql = $pdo->prepare("SELECT count(region_id) FROM region_players WHERE region_id = ? AND user_id = ? AND owner = 1"); $sql->execute(array($regionid, $user)); if ($sql->rowCount() > 0) $ownerstatus = true; $pdo = null; return $ownerstatus; } ? Hi, i m playing arround with php sessions and just started afew testing on it (i never actually used them so i m discovering something new) and i would like to know how can you terminate an PHP Session without closing your browser. For testing i did this small code, just to see the behavior: Code: [Select] <?php session_start(); $id = session_id(); echo $id; session_unset(); session_destroy(); ?> The code above seens only to kill the $_SESSION's variables but what i would like is to Kill the PHPSESSID cookie/session cookie. is there anyway you can achive that? thanks in advance Hi there I have been working on a login PHP script and had it working until I made so change late at night and forgot to back it up.

It calls a javascript function to submit the form. The javascript function is as follows Code: [Select] function submitform(num) { if (num == 2) { document.myform2.submit(); return 1; } if (num == 3) { document.myform3.submit(); return 1; } if (num == 4) { document.myform4.submit(); return 1; } if (num == 5) { document.myform5.submit(); return 1; } if (num == 6) { document.myform6.submit(); return 1; } else { document.myform.submit(); return 1; } }I can log in though when I go to enter the profile the $_SESSION['user'] is gone and I am logged out. I just can't seem to track down the problem and it is frustrating the heck out of me. If anyone has any ideas PLEASE help! Hello fellow coders!

Edited by cssfreakie2, 16 January 2015 - 03:36 PM. There are no opening and closing tags in the code example of the file PostsController.php in this tutorial:
http://book.cakephp....g/part-two.html
Should I always use opening and closing PHP tags throughout with CakePHP? I'm reading over this book and I came across something that looked very odd:
public function DisplayHeader()
{
?>
<table width="100%" cellpadding="12"
cellspacing="0" border="0">
<tr bgcolor ="black">
<td align ="left"><img src = "logo.gif" /></td>
<td>
<h1>TLA Consulting Pty Ltd</h1>
</td>
<td align ="right"><img src = "logo.gif" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
<?php
}
In the function it closes a php tag, uses raw html that is rendered as is on the page, and then returns back to opening the php tag. I understand why it is being done. It is easier to write raw html here than to echo it in a php block, but it just looks odd. Anyone actually use this technique?
Hi, I was wondering if it is possible to have the foreign keys (FK) to automatically assign its value to the corresponding PK (primary key) it references? Let's say I have four tables (with their PK,FK and other fields) Code: [Select] TABLE document: TABLE pathway: TABLE leaf TABLE value: PK: docID PK:pathID PK:leafID PK:valueID filePath pathway FK:pathID FK:leafID fileName FK:docID value target source So when I upload a document, it is added to TABLE document, where PK docID set, and at same time I would add the filepath to TABLE pathway, and now I want TABLE leaf's FK to AUTOMATICALLY add the pathID, docID and ALSO at same time TABLE value's FK of leafID will also be added for that ONE entry that was initally added to TABLE document, pathway. Please I hope someone understand what I want to do, I know FK is for ensuring integrity of data. Please any help is appreciated. Please use my example to help me, thanks. PS: I know the formatting is off which I noticed when I went to preview the post, sorry. Hello friends, In this topic i am getting confuse, and never know how to do work. My problem is that: 1>> I want to send SMS, by PHP pages to mobile. 2>> If user write some Quotation into the calender date, then automatically SMS send to all of those friend with the quatation metter. 3>> All work is store also in MYSQL database also. So please tell me what I do in this case because over the internet only SMS sending code is available, but automatically sms sending option is not given. Please help me then i do this job easily. Thanks Hello, I am new here but I hope you can help me with a problem that I've been stuck with for days. I am trying to populate the content of a website through XML files (zipped) that are located on an FTP server. I managed to get the zip file but I'm not sure if it is the correct way: Code: [Select] function ftp_copy($file) { $conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_host) or die ("Can't connect"); $ftp_login= ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user, $ftp_pass) or die ("Can't login"); ftp_pasv($conn_id, true); ftp_chdir($conn_id, "/zip_files/"); return ftp_get($conn_id, $file, $file, FTP_BINARY); } ftp_copy('1001.zip'); After that I will need to extract the zip file. I'm planning to use pclzip library for it and save the contents on a database. Also this has to happen everyday so I'm thinking about using a cron job, although hourly is also preferable since the XML files could be generated more than once per day. Am I doing it the right way or is there a better solution for this? Any help will me much appreciated! Thanks a lot! Hi,
I have the following function, but told I need to run it automatically. How would I do this?
<script>
function replaceText() {
var list = document.getElementsByTagName("UL")[22];
var list2 = list.getElementsByTagName("LI")[29];
list2.getElementsByTagName("LABEL")[0].innerHTML = "Car";
}
</script>
Thanks!

For example at 12:00 pm a php form will pop up automatically informing an employee to fill in something in the form, another form will pop up at 4:00 pm, etc... Thanks in advance Hi Everyone i am looking for a way to automatically upload a file but skip the browse and choose file process. So i set the location of the file somehow via the form and the client just has to click submit and it will automatcially upload the file from the path i have set. skipping the browse for file process. I would like to intergrate it into the following undesigns S3 Class http://undesigned.org.za/2007/10/22/amazon-s3-php-class/documentation <?php S3::setAuth(awsAccessKey, awsSecretKey); $bucket = "upload-bucket"; $path = "myfiles/"; // Can be empty "" $lifetime = 3600; // Period for which the parameters are valid $maxFileSize = (1024 * 1024 * 50); // 50 MB $metaHeaders = array("uid" => 123); $requestHeaders = array( "Content-Type" => "application/octet-stream", "Content-Disposition" => 'attachment; filename=${filename}' ); $params = S3::getHttpUploadPostParams( $bucket, $path, S3::ACL_PUBLIC_READ, $lifetime, $maxFileSize, 201, // Or a URL to redirect to on success $metaHeaders, $requestHeaders, false // False since we're not using flash ); $uploadURL = "https://{$bucket}.s3.amazonaws.com/"; ?><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <title>S3 Form Upload</title> </head> <body> <form method="post" action="<?php echo $uploadURL; ?>" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <?php foreach ($params as $p => $v) echo " <input type=\"hidden\" name=\"{$p}\" value=\"{$v}\" />\n"; ?> <input type="file" name="file" />&#160;<input type="submit" value="Upload" /> </form> </body> </html> at what point does it grab the file path ? is it grabbing it out of the name here <input type="file" name="file" /> can i do something with $_FILES ??? Can someone please give me a point on where to start i would really appriciate this. thanks I'm wanting to make a sitemap for my website but as it's quite big there are a lot of url's I need to include. I was wondering if anyone know's of a way this can be done using PHP. e.g. using PHP to generate a list of URL's. I had a think myself but wasn't sure how to do it. Thanks for any help. I am very new to PHP and programming in general. About 3 weeks into this. I have this simple expression and some echo in my code. $x1 = $lat_b + $lat_a1; echo "<br>lat b: ".$lat_b; echo "<br>lat a1: ".$lat_a1; echo "<br>x1: ".$x1; $lat_b and $lat_a1 are derived from some xml extractions from a yahoo geocode api (that part works fine). The results of the expression and echos above are as follows: lat b: 40.402866 lat a1: 40.252590 x1: 80 Why is $x1 rounding automatically on me? Later, I substituted the expression above with $x1 = 40.402866 + 40.252590 ; The new result (shown below) makes sense to me. lat b: 40.402866 lat a1: 40.252590 x1: 80.655456 Hi all, Recently I have found myself repeating a very monotonous task on amazon's kindle direct publishing website and (being the kinda guy I am), I figured I could probably automate it without too much trouble. I'm a publisher who needs to maintain my library of lots of books and ensure that any offers are kept up-to-date. I have made screen scrapes before without too much problem, but filling in forms is a little bit more difficult. There are no CAPCHA images to enter and this is specific to my own login so I don't think I can be considered "evil", so all I want to know is how to automate my own login, click a specific link and fill in forms. Ideally I want it as easy as recording a macro, or maybe just a list of instructions. If I told a human to do it, I'd just say "go to this page and click on that, enter these details to login, then click that" and I wondered if there is something out there in cyber world that allows me to do the same? Thanks, Neil This is an example of the forwarding section of the pagination code: if (($filename == $profile) && isset($select_category)) { echo " <a href='{$filename}?user=$user_name_get&sort_category=$select_category&sortSubmit=submit¤t_page=$next_page'>></a> "; echo " <a href='{$filename}?user=$user_name_get&sort_category=$select_category&sortSubmit=submitcurrent_page=$total_pages'>>></a> "; } elseif ($filename == $profile) { echo " <a href='{$filename}?user=$user_name_get¤t_page=$next_page'>></a> "; echo " <a href='{$filename}?user=$user_name_get¤t_page=$total_pages'>>></a> "; } elseif (($filename == $index) && isset($select_category)) { echo " <a href='{$filename}?sort_category=$select_category&sortSubmit=submit¤t_page=$next_page'>></a> "; echo " <a href='{$filename}?sort_category=$select_category&sortSubmit=submit¤t_page=$total_pages'>>></a> "; } else { echo " <a href='{$filename}?current_page=$next_page'>></a> "; echo " <a href='{$filename}?current_page=$total_pages'>>></a> "; } $filename = the opened filename + extension $profile = profile.php $index = 01.php I'm using several if and elseif statements to not have the pagination clash with the other GET data. I'd like to have the pagination simply append at the end of the URL with an ampersand if there is GET data already. If there's no GET data at all I'd like to have it append with a question mark. The problem with the solution I have now is, if I use more GET data in the future I'll have to use more elseif statements it will get out of hand. I've noticed that if you send GET data over a form that has method on GET, then the GET data will automatically decide if to add a question mark or an ampersand. In that sense my question would be, is there a way to make the pagination decide automatically to use a question mark or an ampersand? |
