PHP - Getting Video To A Users Browser

I'd like to use an application that's not browser based, on Internet Explorer. I've read somewhere that this is possible with a PHP script, but which one? If you can get me on the right track, I'd really appreciate it. Cheers.

im new , and ... 

i hate tutorials .. books .. anything that does not make u part of the deal -  .. thats why i started by creating something and learning from my mistakes at the same time .. i like this way of learning ..

soo , while im building and trying things out .. i started thinking how the server know the person with this link is really U ? .. when u start just linking pages to each other its just a matter of finding out what is the link to do what ever u want with the users personal pages ! .. i know my questions r stupid but i just hate to go and write lessons without any effort

im confused with the concept of SESSIONS and COOKIES , r they the unswer to this security problem ? how u can work with them .. ?

im not asking for codes .. just general ideas about users and how they control their profiles and stuff with full security ?

ill be very thankful if i get any answer ^^

I would get the ip address of the user that is on the site. I used $ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; and it doesn't show my actual ip. Is it because im using an apache server on my computer.

 Hi guys,

im just trying to work out an app in my head and on paper. im just wondering..
when a user registers they can choose an Avatar 100px by 100px jpg, when they upload one would i then grab the file and store all Avatars in a avatar image folder and rename it to something like.. avatar[user_id].jpg and keep them all in the same folder.

or

would i crate a folder called users, each user gets their own folder with files like avatar.jpg and it finds the [user_id] folder and pulls the avatar out from that, or is there a more prefered method?

cheers

Hi guys,

If there access is 9 in the database then direct to admin panel if not return them home.

Thanks guys

I have used 

$sql = "SELECT id, username FROM $tbl_name ORDER BY username";
$result = $con->query($sql);
while ($row = $result->fetch_assoc())
{
    echo "<a href='editUser.php?id={$row['id']}'>{$row['username']}</a><br><br>\n";
    echo "<style>a {color: blue; text-decoration: none;} a:hover {color: #ff0000} body {background-color: #000;} </style>";
}

in euser.php which echo's out all the users in the database via an anchor tag and includes their id in the url. but when i click on their name i want to have options like: - change password - ban user e.t.c and i have tried 

$sql = "SELECT id FROM $tbl_name";
$result = $con->query($sql);
while ($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {

echo "<a href='editUser.php?id={$row['id']}'> Change Password  </a>

in my other page editUser.php it posts Change Password Change Password Change Password and each change password has the 3 ids of the users   this is confusing me.

how can I list a user from a table and show the results in a grid with different color eg frist in blue color second on white , 3rd on blue 4th in with etc I do need to set select command and I have db name and ip on a file called dbconfig.php from wd calendar so I just need to read the info   ps: I cant post links so search for wd calendar and see the dbconfig.php in php folder

Hi, I am having serious issues with compatibility with IE7 and below (and even 8 but they should be rectified). There is no way I can have these problems finished before the site is online, so I want to redirect users to a page apologizing and recommending alternative browsers.

Is this possible?


*Please don't reply just to tell me that banning an entire browser is bad, I know it is - I plan to sort it out. But this is an extra curricular project and I'm halfway through my penultimate year of uni, so IE and it's utterly shambolic rendering of CSS is not my priority. Thankyou*

Hi. my browser ist telling me there are errors on line 3 and 4 for my code. It says summin like Notice: HTTP_CLIENT_IP and HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR are unidentified:

below is the code see if you can spot anything btw i copied down the code from beginner php tutorial 66 if you type that into youtube .
Code: [Select]
<?php

$http_client_ip = $_SERVER['HTTP_CLIENT_IP'];
$http_x_forwarded_for = $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'];
$remote_addr = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];

if (!empty($http_client_ip)){
   $ip_addr = $http_client_ip;
   
}else if(!empty($http_x_forwarded_for)){
   $ip_addr = $http_x_forwarded_for;
}else{
   $ip_addr = $remote_addr;
}

echo $ip_addr;
?>

Thanks

MOD EDIT: code tags added.

As long as it's SQL injection proof, would it be alright for me to let non-members add comments to a post and give the Author the ability to delete them?    

Hello,
i am trying to make a calendar for different users which are described in the database.
depending on the link to earn a calendar for the user. here's the code:

Code: [Select]
$sql=" SELECT user , fullname FROM users ";
$resource=mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());
while($array=mysql_fetch_assoc($resource))
 {
 $users[]=$array['user'];
 }   
if (isset($_GET['user'])) {
$user = $_GET['user'];
setcookie('user', $user, time()+(3600*24*365));
}
elseif (isset($_COOKIE['user'])) {
$user = $_COOKIE['user'];
} else {
$user = 'bg';
}
if (!(in_array($user, array_keys($users)))) {
die("Грешка: няма езиков файл!");
}
require_once "{$user}.php";
function switch_users_options() {
global $text, $users, $user;
$retval = $text['switch'];
$get = $_GET;
foreach ($users as $abbrv => $name) {
if ($abbrv !== $user) {
$get['user'] = $abbrv;
$url = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] . '?' .
http_build_query($get);
$retval .= " <a href=\"{$url}\">
{$name}</a><br>";
}
}
return $retval;
}

I've taken it from one code to change the language ..
the question is that it displayed on new line - users from database but the links are wrong :

index.php?user=0, user=1 .. user=2

not as it should be index.php?user=user1, user=test ...
please for assistance.

I looked for a script that shows the number of users online on the site i am making, and found this. I don't know if it is for just showing if the user is online on that one page like a profile page, or if it is for all users in the database. Also, when using the code, it shows "Users Online: 1" then when I reload the page, it says "2' and again, then "3" even though no users have logged in. Thank you.

the script

Code: [Select]

I have a string which is a list of user id's like "44/5/6/67/7/88/56/76/9/90/65/74/8/68". I explode this string and put them into an array, but now I have a problem of getting the users first names from the database by using the id's and putting them in alphabetical order. How can I do this?

Thanks

What are the different ways you can keep a User "logged in"?

From what I *vaguely* recall from a year or two ago when I read a whole hoard of PHP books, you commonly use cookies and sessions.

But I'm asking this more from an OOP standpoint than a PHP standpoint.

Let's say I have a User record in my database, and a User comes along and attempts to log in.

In OOP terms, I would think you'd call some class to help log them in, and upon successfully logging in, you would "load" the User object into memory and set the "LoggedIn" field to "True". Then as long as that field was set in their object, they could surf all over the place and do things like change their account and buy things.

Is that how you would do it in OOP?

I need to know how to allow admin to essentially be "all users" in otherwords, edit everyones profile and not just their own.  Tell me what codes would be helpful and i will send them on in.  By the way, i do have a script that allows members to edit own profile.
