Hey there (: I'm doing a resume site for the FBLA club at my highschool. I'm also learning PHP along the way. I'm sure this is pretty obvious, but i'm getting this error, and I cant figure out what it means:
Code: [Select]
Warning: session_register() [function.session-register]: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at /home2/bythewa1/public_html/resume/profile.php:5) in /home2/bythewa1/public_html/resume/profile.php on line 7

Here is my page code:
Code: [Select]

<? include($root_path.'includes/header.php'); ?>
<? if(!isset($_SESSION['login']))
{
session_register('login, userid, firstname, lastname');
}
if($_GET['logout'] == 'yes')
{
session_unregister('login');
session_unregister('userid');
session_unregister('firstname');
session_unregister('lastname');
}
//die("In");
if(!$_SESSION['login'] == 0)
{
// die("Here");
?>
<script language="javascript">
window.location = 'http://resume.derekbtw.com/index.php';

}

I have been getting into PHP recently and have started a little 'social network' project to learn from and test my development.

So far I've gotten my head around the MYSQL and login/registration scripts as well as denoting certain pages for logged in members as opposed to the home page (for example) that everyone can see.

The problem I now have is with the accounts, I know what I want but I haven't a clue on how to code what it is I am wanting, nor the knowledge of where to start.

It's the basic things such as; Inboxes and messaging system, forums, friends guestbooks, blogs, videos pictures etc..

Can please confirm my suspicions of simplexml_load_file() are not permitted. I have been reading about cURL implementation instead can someone provide some assistance if this is possible and assist.

A lot of thank in advance,

Php W/xml N00b. Fatal Error Loading Xml

With the following code I am getting the Fatal Error: Maximum Execution time of 30 seconds exceeded.

$weather_data = simplexml_load_file('ftp://ftp2.bom.gov.au/anon/gen/fwo/IDV10450.xml');
$issuedate_pre = $weather_data->xpath('amoc/issue-time-utc');
echo $issuedate_pre."\n";
$issuedate_post = DateTime::createFromFormat('Y-m-d?H:i:s?', $issuedate_pre);
echo $issuedate_post."\n";
$issuedate_unix = $issuedate_post->format('U');
echo $issuedate_unix;

The page reads that "Line 10" is to blame for this, that is the first line in that script.
I would have thought it might happen if the server doesn't respond, but if you go to the source of the XML it will load in a few seconds.

Any help on how to load the XML properly would be greatly appreciated.

Regards.

Hi Guys,

Real PHP newbie here, and slowly getting to grips with it (I did say slowly, right!). Basically, I've created this register page. It's supposed to ask the user for their username, password, password verificiation, email address and then finally to ask the user to select from a tick list of interests (populated via the DB).

Here's my code:
<?
include('includes/config.php');
$is_error = 0;

if ($_POST['task'] == 'singup_do') {

      $signup_username = $_POST['user_username'];
      $signup_password = $_POST['user_password'];
      $signup_pwd_again = $_POST['user_password_again'];
      $signup_email = $_POST['user_email_address'];
      $signup_interest = $_POST['signup_interest'];

    if ($signup_username == ''){
        $is_error = 1;
        $signup_username_msg = 'The username cannot be left blank';
    }

    if ($signup_password == ''){
       $is_error = 1;
        $signup_password_msg = 'Password field cannot be left blank';
    }

    if ($signup_pwd_again == ''){
        $is_error = 1;
        $signup_pwd_again_msg = 'Password again field cannot be left blank';
    }

    if ($signup_email == ''){
        $is_error = 1;
        $signup_email_msg = 'Email cannot be left blank';
    }
    if ($signup_email != '' && !validateEmailAddress($signup_email)) {
        $is_error = 1;
        $signup_email_msg = 'Incorrect E-mail address';
    }
    if (!is_array($signup_interest) || count($signup_interest)==0){
        $is_error = 1;
        $signup_interest_msg = 'Please select atleast one interest';
    }

    //EMAIL ADDRESS VALIDATION
    if ($signup_password!='' && $signup_pwd_again!='' && $signup_password != $signup_pwd_again) {
        $is_error = 1;
        $error_msg = 'Passwords don\'t match';
    }

    //USERNAME DUPLICATION VALIDATION
    if (!$is_error && $signup_username!='' && !checkUsername($signup_username)) {
        $is_error = 1;
        $signup_username_msg = 'Username already taken, please enter another';
    }

    if (!$is_error) {

       $signup_interest_ids = ( is_array($signup_interest) ? implode(',', $signup_interest) : '' );
       $users_insert = "INSERT INTO users SET user_id='', user_username = '{$signup_username}' , user_password='{$signup_password}', user_email_address = '{$signup_email}', users_interests='{$signup_interest_ids}', user_active='Y', user_date_added=NOW()";
       mysql_query($users_insert);

Simple Contact Form, Php N00b

View Content

so, I've been trying to build a contact form for about a week now. straight. no kidding.
I'm entirely new to php and basically know nothing more than i can assume based on other scripting/coding experience.
I know there's probably answers to similar questions all over the place, but I've been trying literally hundreds of different pre-built forms guaranteed to work and solutions to others' problems, etc etc and not a single one has operated correctly for me. I can't really do anything with a "you should try this/that approach" answer, nor can I be assumed to know anything about php; I pretty much just need someone to fix whatever the problem is and paste it back to me as this is the only thing keeping me from launching the site.

this is what prints when trying to submit with the dropdown on the default value:
Quote

Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 451 See http://pobox.com/~djb/docs/smtplf.html. in D:\Hosting\5810110\html\contact\contact.php on line 32
There was an err0r processing your request. Please notify god@neurot1k.com & include details of what you did [wrong].

this prints when any item other than the default is selected in the dropdown:
Quote

Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 451 See http://pobox.com/~djb/docs/smtplf.html. in D:\Hosting\5810110\html\contact\contact.php on line 32

Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 554 The message was rejected because it contains prohibited virus or spam content in D:\Hosting\5810110\html\contact\contact.php on line 33
There was an err0r processing your request. Please notify god@neurot1k.com & include details of what you did [wrong].

http://email.about.com/cs/standards/a/smtp_error_code_2.htm specifically states to ignore both these errors, yet http://cr.yp.to/docs/smtplf.html specifically states that it's a fault of mine.

here's the html:
Code: [Select]
<div id="formHolder">
<form method="post" action="contact.php">
<table class="contactTable" align="center">
<tr>
<td>
Subject:
</td>
<td>
<select name="sendto">
<option value="bs from N1K.com">General Inquiry</option>
<option value="JOB OFFER">Design Contract</option>
<option value="PURCHASE ORDER">Purchase Order/Offer</option>
</select>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><font color=red>*</font>Name:</td>
<td><input size=25 name="Name"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><font color=red>*</font>Email:</td>
<td><input size=25 name="Email"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Company:</td>
<td><input size=25 name="Company"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Phone:</td>
<td><input size=25 name="Phone"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Subscribe to<br>
mailing list:
</td>
<td><input type="radio" name="list" value="No"> Pf, nothx.<br>
<input type="radio" name="list" value="Yes" checked> H3X Y34!<br>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan=2>Message:</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan=2 align=center>
<textarea name="Message" rows=5 cols=35></textarea>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan=2 align=center>
<input type=submit name="send" value="Submit">
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
</div>

and here's the php:
<?php

$to = "god@neurot1k.com" ;
$from = $_REQUEST['Email'] ;
$name = $_REQUEST['Name'] ;
$headers = "From: $from";
$subject = $_REQUEST['sendto'] ;

$fields = array();
$fields{"Name"} = "Name";
$fields{"Company"} = "Company";
$fields{"Email"} = "Email";
$fields{"Phone"} = "Phone";
$fields{"list"} = "Mailing List";
$fields{"Message"} = "Message";

$body = "I have received the following information:\n\n";
foreach($fields as $a => $b){
   $body .= sprintf("%20s: %s\n",$b,$_REQUEST[$a]);
   }

   $headers2 = "From: god@neurot1k.com";
   $subject2 = "autoconfirm from neurot1k.com";
   $autoreply = "Thanks for the contact, I'll get back to you as soon as possible, usually within 48 hours. If you have any more questions, please try me on AIM: ycleptCrux";

   if($from == '') {
   print "You have not entered an email, please go back and try again";
   } else {
   if($name == '') {
   print "You have not entered a name, please go back and try again";
   } else {
   $send = mail($to, $subject, $body, $headers);
   $send2 = mail($from, $subject2, $autoreply, $headers2);
   if($send) {
   print "Thanks, I'll get back to you as soon as possible.";
   } else {
   print "There was an err0r processing your request. Please notify god@neurot1k.com & include details of what you did [wrong].";
   }
   }
   }
?>

the form was copy/pasted from http://php.about.com/od/phpapplications/ss/form_mail.htm and then respective variables were changed (email address, dropdown fields, etc). I didn't think it'd be SUCH a problem to copy/paste a pre-written block of code from About.com...

HUGE thanks in advance to anyone willing to helo.

Make Form Mail Ignore Empty Text Fields - Complete N00b

I apologize in advance, I know pretty much nothing about PHP - don't hate me, please!
But I'm working on a form mailer, and it functions, but what I don't like is it leaves all the text fields, blank or not, in my email, which makes it difficult for my client to read, so theres a long list of
txt field1:
another text field:
blah blah:

all the way down the email - and I want it gone! haha.
I've researched how to do this, but basically, I have no idea how to implement it into my code and don't have time right now to up and learn PHP.
My code is as follows:

Code: [Select]
<?php
//--------------------------Set these paramaters--------------------------

// Subject of email sent to you.
$subject = 'PCI Tour/Excursion Request';

// Your email address. This is where the form information will be sent.
$emailadd = 'MY EMAIL HERE';

// Where to redirect after form is processed.
$url = 'FORWARDING URL';

// Makes all fields required. If set to '1' no field can not be empty. If set to '0' any or all fields can be empty.
$req = '0';

// --------------------------Do not edit below this line--------------------------
$text = "Results from form:\n\n";
$space = ' ';
$line = '
';
foreach ($_POST as $key => $value)
{
if ($req == '1')
{
if ($value == '')
{echo "$key is empty";die;}
}
$j = strlen($key);
if ($j >= 20)
{echo "Name of form element $key cannot be longer than 20 characters";die;}
$j = 20 - $j;
for ($i = 1; $i <= $j; $i++)
{$space .= ' ';}
$value = str_replace('\n', "$line", $value);
$conc = "{$key}:$space{$value}$line";
$text .= $conc;
$space = ' ';
}
mail($emailadd, $subject, $text, 'From: '.$emailadd.'');
echo '<META HTTP-EQUIV=Refresh CONTENT="0; URL='.$url.'">';
?>

IT was a very simple copy-paste form, but I have no idea what on earth I'm doing.
If anyone has any ideas I would GREATLY appriciate the help!
Thanks!
