PHP - Help Writing Conditional Statement

Hi,

Why doesn't this work? Driving me nuts! Thanks.

<?php
    if($_SERVER[PHP_SELF] == 'somepage.php')
   {
     Header("Location: http://www.thissite.com");
    } else {
     Header("Location: http://www.anothersite.com");
    }
?>

The code NEVER redirects to the first URL (thissite.com). It ALWAYS redirects to  the second URL (anothersite.com).

What the heck am I doing wrong? 

hey guys trying to find out what the short name of FireFox2 is. (for example the "IE 6" in this code) What would it be for firefox versions 2?

Code: [Select]
<!--[if IE 6]>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=http://example.com/">
<![endif]-->
THANKS!!!

Hi and thanks for taking the time to read through this first and foremost. I have a bit of code that I have managed to piece together with help from other sites and what it does is connect to our local ms sql server and retrieve a few tables from our database. The info is relating to property management and it basically displays the unit address, current date and its rental status. (Occupied or Vacant)

This makes it easy for us to at a glance check the status of our rentals instead of having to log into our software and navigate through all that.. anyways, I have two issues I need help with.

First problem, in my code, is it possible to write a conditional statement that would check for a certain status in a view and then if it is there, print a simple yes or no in a table with that appropriate property.

For example, we have property 1000 name street and it is currently vacant, however the viewPendingLease shows us information regarding future bookings. I would like to be able to look through that view with the code, check property 1000 name street for any future pending leases, and if there is one, print out a "Yes" in a Future Booked column that I would create.

If any of that makes sense, I can post the print out of the tables of the viewPendingLease if it makes it easier for anyone to see the data output to understand what I am meaning.

The second issue, is it possible to change the color of the text according to a variable, say a word in a generated table with html or css? I would like to color the words vacant or occupied green and red respectively just to make it much easier to zero in on the vacant properties. Or even maybe just color every other row a background color just to help distinguish between the different properties.

Here is my code that pulls up my current tables to show Property, Street and current rented status.

Code: [Select]
<?php 

//connect to a DSN "*******" 
$conn = odbc_connect('*******','*****','************'); 

if ($conn) 
{ 
//the SQL statement that will query the database 
$query = "Select unit.PropertyUnitID, unit.Street, unit.Status, from unit";
//perform the query 
$result=odbc_exec($conn, $query); 

echo "<table border=\"1\"><tr>"; 

//print field name 
$colName = odbc_num_fields($result); 
for ($j=1; $j<= $colName; $j++) 
{ 
echo "<th>"; 
echo odbc_field_name ($result, $j ); 
echo "</th>"; 
} 

//fetch tha data from the database 
while(odbc_fetch_row($result)) 
{ 
echo "<tr>"; 
for($i=1;$i<=odbc_num_fields($result);$i++) 
{ 
echo "<td>"; 
echo odbc_result($result,$i); 
echo "</td>"; 
} 
echo "</tr>"; 
} 

echo "</td> </tr>"; 
echo "</table >"; 

//close the connection 
odbc_close ($conn); 
} 
else echo "odbc not connected"; 
?>

I currently have the viewPendingLease.Active (which shows if there is a future pending lease) taken out due to a repeating data issue I am also trying to figure out...

I'm having issues with the following:

Code: [Select]
<?php
session_start();

I can log-in, and get to the page with the two links on it. However, once I click one of the links it falls back to the log-in page, and it ends up being a never ending loop.

It's doing this:
Log-In --> Page with links ---> Log-In page again

Should be doing this:
Log-In --> Page with links --> Add Product page or View Products page

I can never get into the the actual sub page.

Just to be clear, the address bar actually shows product=add or product=view, but it still shows the log-in page.

i wanna put condition that if ($signupbonus > 0.00) then following should not be executed

<font size="3" color="red"><b>Referral bonus: <font color="green" size="4">$<? echo $signupbonus; ?></font></b></font><br><br>

please help

Hi, I have a website that is 80% done when my programmer dropped the ball. I am trying to get it all to work, but have only rudimentary knowledge on what I am doing thus far and need a bit of help, please. I have a couple of popups links that writes a reminder to check the size of necks and arms at the top of certain pages.   One of my product groups is called Collars and Armbands which consists of
1 x category "Collars and Armbands" whic has
2 x Subcategories which are "Collars" and "Armbands"

if I click on the "Collars and Armbands" tab, it displays all the contents of both subcategories Collars and Armbands, as expected. It displays the popup links for both subcategories. I don't want the popups to appear on the "Collars and Armbands" page but only on the individual "Collars" or "Armbands" pages if I click on Collars or Armbands subcategory tabs it displays the single popup link for that category. (which is what I want it to do)

The problem lies in the category and subcategory names which I can't really change without making it non-logical for the customer.

this the code that makes is happen  if    (    substr_count($sectionname,'Collars')>0 || substr_count($productname,'Collar')>0 ) {
        echo '<p class="measurelink noprint">Remember to <a href="neckmeasurepop.php" class="lnkpopup sllink" title="click for popup measuring instructions" onclick="slf_popupwin();return false;">Measure Your Collar Size !</a></p>';
    }

My question is, is there a way to set a condition that I can use for this code that says "if the $sectionname = "Collars" but NOT "Collars and Armbands" and $productname = "Collar" then display the popup link "neckmeasurepop.php".   I had considered renaming the base category to something else, but that would just make things confusing for the customers.   Cheers and thanks in advance
 

Hello.   I have a sports league and the captain's page has a menu bar allowing links to sub pages.  I would like to only add the URL part if a condition is met.  In my database I have a league field called "session" for Spring or Summer sessions.    The menu bar has 5 simple columns for hyperlinks: Home  |  Edit Team  |  Add Player  | Edit My Information  |  Log Out  |   What I would like to do is to only display say the "Edit Team" with hyperlink if the league session = "Summer" (that was Spring teams cannot edit their information at this point in time).  I am trying to create an IF-Else statement, but can't quite get it right.  I am a novice PHP coder, so I could really use some help.  Here is the current code for this short section:

<table width="800" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
  <tr>
    <td><img src="images/BBV_CP_top.jpg" width="800" height="200"></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><table width="100%"  border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2">
      <tr>
        <td width="6%" class="menu"><a href="home.php"> Home</a> </td>
        <td width="9%" class="menu">Edit Team </a></td>
        <td width="12%" class="menu">Add Player</td>
        <td width="63%" class="menu">Edit My Information</a> </td>
        <td width="10%" class="menu"><a href="logout.php">Log Out </a></td>
      </tr>
    </table>

How can I create "Edit Team" to be a hyperlink ONLY IF the condition (league = Summer) is TRUE?  $team is the query that returns the league results from the MSSQL query.  Thanks in advance for your help.    

Hi,

I've written a conditional statement to give my body tag a unique ID, depending on three conditions. (body id="red" etc..)

The statement does indeed work when tested, but dreamweaver is highlighting the conditional in yellow - So I'm wondering if there is an alternate (and perhaps cleaner) way of writing the following..

It's for a joomla site btw..

(I've spread the code out a little here, so it's easier for you guys to see what I'm doing)

Code: [Select]
<body

<?php if($this->countModules('headerlow')) : ?>   
id="up"
<?php endif; ?>

<?php if (JRequest::getVar('Itemid')==104) { ?>
id="red"

<? } else {?>
id="low"
<? } ?>

Hey, been banging my head against the wall for a couple of hours now.
There is an If () in the code that is driving me crazy because it is not behaving like I expect it to..


foreach ( $types as $type ) {
    if ( !isset( $type->modclass ) or !isset( $type->typestr ) ) {
        debugging( 'Incorrect activity type in ' . $modname );
        continue;
    }
    $var = (string)$type->type;
    if ( $var != 'assignment&type=online' ) {

        print '<br/>' . $var . '<br/>';
        
        if ( $type->modclass == MOD_CLASS_RESOURCE ) {
            $resources[$type->type] = $type->typestr;
        } else {
            $activities[$type->type] = $type->typestr;
        }
    }
}


results in...

Code: [Select]
label

resource&type=text

resource&type=html

resource&type=file

resource&type=directory

resource&type=ims

assignment_group_start

assignment&type=upload

assignment&type=online

assignment&type=uploadsingle

assignment&type=offline

assignment_group_end

 

Notice the assignment&type=online in the output... I'm just about ready to give up as to why it is still outputting $var when it is clearly equal to the compared string?

Any ideas?

Hello, this is my first PHP project, and I am having issues getting it to correctly display an error ONLY if the input is an error
It displays the error upon first load of the page w/o pressing submit. How would I use Code: [Select]
isset($_POST['submit'])to fix it?

Code: [Select]
<?php

$inputid = $_POST['steamid'];

$steam_prefix = substr($inputid, 0, 10);

$prefix_length = 10;

$char_total = strlen($inputid);

$steam_suffixchars = ($char_total - $prefix_length);

$suffix_check = substr($inputid, 10, $steam_suffixchars);

$class_set = "notranslate";

$is_submit = isset($_POST['submit']);

if(is_numeric($suffix_check) == true)
$suffix_valid = true;
elseif(is_int($suffix_check) == false)
$suffix_valid = false;

if($char_total > 25 || $char_total < 11)
$char_valid = false;
else
$char_valid = true;


if($steam_prefix === "STEAM_0:1:" || $steam_prefix === "STEAM_0:0:")
$prefix_check = true;
elseif($steam_prefix != "STEAM_0:1:" || $steam_prefix != "STEAM_0:0:")
$prefix_check = false;

if (preg_match('/^[A-Z0-9-:-_-]+$/', $inputid))
$chars_matched = true;
else
$chars_matched = false;

if($suffix_check == true && $prefix_check == true && $char_valid == true && $chars_matched == true)
echo "Approved!";
elseif(isset($_POST['anon']))
echo "Approved!";
else
echo "error!";




?>

I would like to have a script that would check certain parameters and if none of them returns TRUE, execute a set of codes. So the idea is somehow like if...else().

Code: [Select]
<?php
// trying to put if() directly within if()
if (
// checking of variables
if (!isset($transaction)) {
echo '<font color="#FF0000">Type of transaction is not set.</font>'. '<br />';
}
else {
if ($transaction == 'sell') {
if (empty($BV)) {
echo '<font color="#FF0000">Book value is not set.</font>'. '<br />';
}
}
}
if (empty($stock)) {
echo '<font color="#FF0000">Stock symbol is not set.</font>'. '<br />';
}
if (empty($price)) {
echo '<font color="#FF0000">Price per share is not set.</font>'. '<br />';
}
if (empty($volume)) {
echo '<font color="#FF0000">Volume of shares is not set.</font>'. '<br />';
}
) {
echo 'Go back and fill out necessary fields.';
}
// if none of the above parameters returns TRUE
else {
echo 'Copy and paste the following in the email that you would be submitting.'
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
switch ($transaction) {
case 'buy':
include('calc_buy.php');
break;
case 'sell':
include('calc_sell.php');
break;
default:
echo '<font color="#FF0000"><b>If you see this message there is something wrong with your session. Please send us a feedback with the details of your session before seeing this message.</b></font>';
}
}
?>

This code returns an error and as I understand the error, it is because of if (if ()). How can I make it work?

Thanks in advance!

I am trying to identify the username from a series of windows logs.  I have been using (?:User Name:|Account Name:)\s*([\S]+) and it works for examples 1-4, however I'm having problems with example 5.  Because it has two occurrences of the pattern Account Name: in the string I can only get the regex to return the first match, i.e. USER-PC$.  How can I tell regex, that if there are two Account Name: patterns in the string, or the string contains the pattern "New Logon:" then return the second Account Name: match, i.e. John.Doe?
 
eg 1 - The screen saver was invoked. Subject: Security ID: S-X-X Account Name: John.Doe Account Domain: INTERNAL Logon ID: 0xa4091 Session ID: 1
 
eg 2 - User initiated logoff: Subject: Security ID: S-X-X Account Name: John.Doe Account Domain: INTERNAL Logon ID: 0x3d95c This event is generated when a logoff is initiated. No further user-initiated activity can occur. This event can be interpreted as a logoff event.
 
eg 3 - User Logoff: User Name: John.Doe Domain: INTERNAL Logon ID: (0x0,0x458E4AB4) Logon Type: 8
 
eg 4 - Successful Network Logon: User Name: John.Doe Domain: INTERNAL Logon ID: (0x0,0x43) Logon Type: 8 Logon Process: Advapi Authentication Package: Negotiate Workstation Name: USER-PC Logon GUID: {2e483a4f-} Caller User Name: USER-PC $ Caller Domain: INTERNAL Caller Logon ID: (0x0,0x7) Caller Process ID: 4816 Transited Services: - Source Network Address: xx.xxx.xx.x Source Port: 35029
 
eg 5 - An account was successfully logged on. Subject: Security ID: S-X-X Account Name: USER-PC$ Account Domain: INTERNAL Logon ID: 0x3e7 Logon Type: 2 New Logon: Security ID: S-X-X Account Name: John.Doe Account Domain: INTERNAL Logon ID: 0xa4062 Logon GUID: {23-xx-22} Process Information: Process ID: 0x2fc Process Name: C:\Windows\System32\winlogon.exe Network Information: Workstation Name: USER-PC Source Network Address: xx.x.x.x Source Port: 0     Any help would be appreciated:)

is it possible to have a script that changes header based on what page the user came from.

something like

Code: [Select]
if ($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']) == http://www.site.com/pagebefore.php) { // do nothing, letting page generate }
else { header("Location: back_to_the_start_buddy.php"); }
