PHP - Return To Where You Were
If a user is on Page X, but not logged in, when they log in to my website, I want them to return back to Page X (in this example).
To handle this, I am adding this code to the top of each webpage... Code: [Select] // Set current Script Name. $_SESSION['returnToPage'] = $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']; And then as part of my Log In script I have... Code: [Select] // Redirect User. if (isset($_SESSION['returnToPage'])){ header("Location: " . BASE_URL . $_SESSION['returnToPage']); }else{ // Take user to Home Page. header("Location: " . BASE_URL . "index.php"); } What do you think about this approach? Thanks, Debbie Similar TutorialsHey all. My site has a config database table that has a column showlogin to set whether or not login functionality is enabled. I'm playing around with MySQLi, Classes, and Returns. My return is always 1. Where am I going wrong? test.php <?php // Start Session session_start(); // Production Settings ini_set('display_errors', 1); mysqli_report(MYSQLI_REPORT_ALL); include 'db.php'; $mysqli = new mysqli($host, $user, $pass, $db); class styles { function showlogin($show) { global $mysqli; $select = $mysqli->query("SELECT showlogin FROM config LIMIT 1"); $value = $select->fetch_object(); if ($value->showlogin = 1) { return 1; } return 0; } } $login = new styles(); echo $login->showlogin($show); ?> Hello First of all i am very weak about OOP and classes in php. I am learning now but i stuck with very silly problem. My codes are below. <?php class myTestClass { function __construct() { $this->OldName("This is Old Name"); } function OldName($VeryOld) { if($VeryOld == "This is Old Name") $this->NewName(); else $VeryOld = "Something Wrong"; return $VeryOld; } function NewName() { echo "This is Brand New Name"; } } $i = new myTestClass(); ?> if i send value to OldName "This is Old Name" then codes works fine. But if i send "This is Old Nameeee" then does not appear anything. what i want to do is print "Something Wrong" text if i enter different value. I have no idea what return do and how it do? How to retrieve/print "Something Wrong"? i can do that with echo but i want to transfer result of return to another function. Really appreciate for any help/idea. Hi Everyone,
My name is Raoul Grosser, live in The Netherlands.
I'm a front/backend developer working with AngularJS and Bootstrap and Symphone2.
I've been writing PHP code for over 4 years now my focus is on opensource projects.
If you have any question, please let me know!
return (int) $value VS return $value
What is the purpose of using int in a bracket? return (int) $value
Which is the best and safest method?
Thank you
Hi all, can you give me suggestion how to return value from function like this Code: [Select] function returnArray(){ for($i=1; $i<=3; $i++){ return $i; //how to return this as array?? } } when I code "echo" inside the function then call the function it give me output => 123 but when I code "return" inside the function, it will give output => 1 Can you suggest me how to output it as array? I have a form page (referred to as form.php) which is then processed via a submit button, the script then processes the data from the form.php and if it discovers an error it then sets a variable containing the error message my process page contains Code: [Select] if (empty($b_addr)) { $b_addr_error = "Address is required"; $check_failed = TRUE;} header("Location: form.php"); then my form.php contains Code: [Select] $b_addr_error = safe($_GET['b_addr_error']); if (isset($_POST['$b_addr_error'])) { echo "<div class='errorfont' align='center'>'".$b_addr_error."';</div>"; } but the variables do not get passed back to form.php from the process page, any ideas? Thank you. Hi all, I am kinda stuck on the return() statement in the php.net manual about control structures. (http://au.php.net/manual/en/function.return.php) All I see is notes on when not to use it and some scary examples with loads of foo and bar but, it's hard to find out when it would be nice to use it. At the moment i am thinking its another way of echo, but I bet that's wrong. If someone could enlighten me a bit on when return() is useful I would be very happy since i see it more often everyday. CHeers! Hello again. I use echo "Rating:".$json['Rating]."/10"; and get in return: 7.5/10 - it's ok. But I want to replace 7.5 with 75.png (image), 6.3 with 63.png, 9.4 with 94.png... hope u understand. Know someone how I can do this? Thanks. Say I have my login form which then when person tries to log in with the wrong user name and password and sent straight back to the log in page, how do I send back they got the password and/or username wrong. I read somewhere in some code header("location: index.php&$errorvariable"); or something like that. I haven't tested it, not even sure how to get it to work on the index, would I just use an isset on a get/post to check if it exists then echo the error? Hi, I have setup my paypal payment method for a shopping cart on my site, all is well but in order for my server to flag an invoice as paid, the user must return to my website after paying and the query string in the url give the script the go ahead to mark it as paid which in turn alerts the appropriate department that its ok to source the order. ~The problem is, if the user for whatever reason skip the redirect back to my site, the invoice is remain 'unpaid' and has to be changed manually when the payment has been checked in the account. As you might imagine this is a bit of a problem because not only can it cause quite a delay, it also requires manually changing values which can lead to other problems. So if there is a better way i would appreciate the info, thanks a lot. I am trying make my code display different things depending on how many rows are returned This is my code Code: [Select] <?PHP include 'db_con.php'; $month = date("n"); $day = date("j"); $sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table WHERE month = $month AND day = $day ")or die(mysql_error()); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql) ) if (mysql_fetch_array($row = 1 ) ) ///THIS IS AN ERROR BUT IF ONE ROW RETURNED THEN THIS { echo "ONE THING"; } elseif (mysql_fetch_array($row >1 ) )////IF > 1 ROW RETURNED THAN THIS { echo"TWO THINGS"; } else { echo "SOMETHING ELSE "; } ?> I have tried several variations of the above code but cannot get it to work. Thanks for any help anyone can give me. let say i have a function function checkme($x) { if(strlen($x)>10) { return $x; } else { return false; } } $variable=checkme("5"); so two questions i wish to ask... 1. If i wish to get the empty string for the $variable, then is it correct to have return false there? 2. If it is true that return shall not be used twice in a function as it will somehow reduce bytes space or something like that?? thanks in advance Where should I validate the return value?
In the function should I validate the value before returning it.
Or once the value has been returned, should I check it?
Is it really necessary to validate the return value?
Thank you.
Hi, i got this function to get the wordCount that i store in a tabel: Code: [Select] function getWordCount($word) { $query = "SELECT count FROM uniqueWords WHERE word='$word'"; $data = execQuery($query); return $data; } Only it returns an array, what i want is to have it return a integer, how can i do that? Script:
<?php class Article{ public function fetch_all(){ global $pdo; $query = $pdo->prepare("SELECT * FROM `articles` ORDER BY `article_timestamp` DESC"); $query->execute(); return $query->fetchAll(); } public function fetch_data($article_id){ global $pdo; $query = $pdo->prepare("SELECT * FROM `articles` WHERE `article_id` = ?"); $query->bindValue(1, $article_id); $query->execute(); return $query->fetch(); } /* * These have gotten added later on. */ public function delete($id){ global $pdo; $query = $pdo->prepare("DELETE FROM `articles` WHERE `article_id` = ?"); $query->bindValue(1, $id); $query->execute(); // The "return" here. } public function edit_page($title, $content, $aticle_id){ global $pdo; $query = $pdo->prepare("UPDATE `articles` SET `article_title` = ?, `article_content` = ? WHERE `article_id` = ?"); $query->bindValue(1, $title); $query->bindValue(2, $content); $query->bindValue(3, $article_id); $query->execute(); // The "return" here. } } ?>I have this from a tutorial. In the function "fetch_all()" it uses "fetchAll()" at the spot where the "return" is, and in the function "fetch_data()" it uses "fetch()" at the spot where the "return" is. My Question: What may have to use for the function "delete()" and the function "edit_page()" at the spot where "return" would be? Edited by glassfish, 29 October 2014 - 12:32 PM. How to do that when you turn 360 degrees no longer come back? Only in this way was? By calling function two will it break the loop?; or do i have to echo what is returned? Code: [Select] functione one() { $getids = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table"); while($row=mysql_fetch_assoc($getids); { $this->two(); } } function two() { return 'break;'; } Hi everyone for my end of studies projects I decided to do a little e-commerce problem on the filter ..
