PHP - Preg_match_all Returns Matches That Doesn't Exist

I'm trying to do a simple image upload. It works fine on my local server but i'm moving all my files to my production server and some files i attempt to upload, via an html form, don't register. The $_FILES variable doesn't exist sometimes. I think its because of the file size but i'm not sure.

The form has two inputs: "title" and "userfile". I can put something in the title and attempt to upload a small excel file and both $_POST and $_FILES exist but if i do a larger image file both $_POST and $_FILES don't even get set.

I did an "echo ini_get('post_max_size');" and i get "8M". The image i'm attempting to upload is only 0.34M so i should be good there.

I've replaced the actual upload script with this, which is how i found out the variables only get set sometimes


Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Code: [Select]
<?php
  echo "Upload: " . $_FILES["userfile"]["name"] . "<br />";
  echo "Type: " . $_FILES["userfile"]["type"] . "<br />";
  echo "Size: " . ($_FILES["userfile"]["size"] / 1024) . " Kb<br />";
  echo "Stored in: " . $_FILES["userfile"]["tmp_name"];

echo "<hr><pre>";
print_r($_POST);
echo "</pre><hr>";

echo "<pre>";
print_r($_FILES);
echo "</pre>";

And how can I make it so if it does already exist, it doesn't over-write information already in it?

Thanks

Hi,
No matter what I seem to change in my code, I sill get the same error!

"Table 'suvoocom_wl.beta' doesn't exist"

This is my 'core.php' file;

Code: [Select]
<?php

$sqlpassword = "*****";
$sqldb = "suvoocom_wl";
?>

And this is my 'connect.php' file;

Code: [Select]
<?php
mysql_connect("$sqlhostname", "$sqlusername", "$sqlpassword")or die("Unable to connect.");
mysql_select_db("$sqldb")or die("Unable to select the database you provided. Either I do not have premission to connect to that database, or the database doesn't exist.");
?>

Does anyone have any ideas? :S
Thanks!

Hi,

My site was working fine, but I just switched servers/web hosts and now I'm getting the following errors (in blue). The thing is, I don't get the error if I try to run the query loop after just using 'mysql_select_db' once, but if I use it again to select a different database and then run the query loop, I start getting the error.

Code: [Select]
mysql_select_db ("database1", $mysql_con);

$mysql_query = mysql_query ("SELECT ID FROM someTable1", $mysql_con);
$someVar1 = 0;

while ($mysql_array = mysql_fetch_array ($mysql_query))
{
$someVar1 ++;
}


////// The above code gives me no error. But If I then try to select a different database and run a loop in the same way (in the same file), I start getting the below error...


mysql_select_db ("database2", $mysql_con);

$mysql_query = mysql_query ("SELECT ID FROM someTable2", $mysql_con);
$someVar2 = 0;

while ($mysql_array = mysql_fetch_array ($mysql_query))
{
$someVar2 ++;
}
Warning: mysql_fetch_array() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in /home/snubby5/public_html/coozymcmillan.com/view.php on line 86

So I looked it up and somewhere it told me to add some extra code to handle errors better:

Code: [Select]
if ($mysql_query === FALSE) {
    die (mysql_error ()); // TODO: better error handling
}
But when I do that, I get a different error:

Table 'database1.someTable2' doesn't exist

It doesn't seem to recognize that I switched databases, and it says 'database1.someTable2' doesn't exist (because it doesn't), when really it should be checking for 'database2.someTable2' (which exists).

So to reiterate, I can run the query loop fine after selecting database1, but after that if I select database2, it either gives me the first error, or If I add the 'die' code it gives me the second error.


Thanks much!

PS: I can get it working if I put everything into one database, but I have multiple websites (which sometimes need to call eachothers' databases) and it would be a huge hassle to cram them all into one database unless I have to.

*delurk! It had to happen sooner or later!*

OK, I am totally and utterly stumped. I have this script:

$this->clear_cache ($this->cache_dir, $this->cache_time);

if ($this->cache_time > 0) {
$current_page = $_SERVER ['REQUEST_URI'];
$current_page_encoded = base64_encode($current_page);
$current_page_path = $this->cache_dir . $current_page_encoded;

 if (file_exists($current_page_path)) { // see if there is still a file with the name of the current request URI after cache cleared
                $content = file_get_contents ($current_page_path);

return $content;
                } 
         }

Basically, it is for checking if there is a cached version of the page before running the rest of the script, using the REQUEST_URI as the identifier. So it calls a function to clear the cache, which works fine (and I've tried just deleting the cache files manually anyway).

Then it checks if we are even caching, i.e. if cache time is greater than 0. Then it uses the BASE64-encoded REQUEST_URI (under which name the file would have been cached previously) to check if a file with that name still exists in the cache dir, and if so loads it. Now, this works perfectly with a url like:

mysite/myscript/mysubpage

But when the page has parameters, like:

mysite/myscript/mysubpage?search=widgets

the file_exists function returns TRUE, even though the directory is empty. I did do a clearstatcache(); but it made no difference and anyway, it wouldn't explain why the URI with query string would fail while the regular one would not. And even if something is wrong with my code elsewhere, the fact is it is returning TRUE for a non-existent file.

Can someone prevent my slide into insanity?!

I've done pretty much everything I can come up with.
The method itself works fine, if I print_r(); just before returning it, it successfully returns the array.
But once returned, it's empty.

Any ideas?

Hello again,

I have some form data, which I then search through for particular code data like so:
$html2 = $_POST['fname'];
preg_match_all("/<bla>(.*)<\/bla>/", $html2, $matches40);

So the above searches for all the data between <bla>XXXXXX</bla> from $POST

Which I then print to my page using:
 (Only so I can see while developing)
print_r($matches40);

This displays HTML output like so:
Code: [Select]
Array ( [0] => Array ( [0] => Hello [1] => My [2] => Name [3] => Is [4] => Tom ) [1] => Array ( [0] => Hello [1] => My [2] => Name [3] => Is [4] => Tom ) )
What I am trying to do is again use the preg_match_all function to look through the array output and find data that I want to remove. E.g. If one of the variables from $matches40 is 'Tom' I want to find and replaces this with 'Ben'.

I spent a day searching Google but to not success. Any help?

i have error where my code should update existing data where id exist, it get updated ..but the others data is disappeared .only the data updated is remained 

$sql1 ="select*from semakan_dokumen where email='$stdEmail'";
$sqlsearch1 = mysqli_query($dbconfig,$sql1);
$resultcount1 = mysqli_num_rows($sqlsearch1);

if($resultcount1 > 0){
$query1=("UPDATE  semakan_dokumen set student_id='$noMatrik', email= '$stdEmail', surat_tawaran='$fileName', ic='$fileName1',sijil_lahir='$fileName2',sijil_spm= '$fileName3',sijil_sekolah= '$fileName4', sijil_dip= '$fileName5',sej_julai='$fileName6',bm_julai='$fileName7',muet='$fileName8', mid1='$fileName9',yuran= '$fileName10',umpa_bend1= '$fileName11',umpa_bend2='$fileName12',bpkp='$fileName13', penaja='$fileName14',kesihatan= '$fileName15', jhepa='$fileName16' where email= '$stdEmail' ");

}else{


//filezip
$query1 = "INSERT INTO semakan_dokumen (email,surat_tawaran,ic,sijil_lahir,sijil_spm,sijil_sekolah,sijil_dip,sej_julai,bm_julai,muet,mid1,yuran,umpa_bend1,umpa_bend2,bpkp,penaja,kesihatan,jhepa) VALUES ('$stdEmail','$fileName','$fileName1','$fileName2','$fileName3','$fileName4','$fileName5','$fileName6','$fileName7','$fileName8','$fileName9','$fileName10','$fileName11','$fileName12','$fileName13','$fileName14','$fileName15','$fileName16')";
}

 

i want to find the text between "{:" and ":}", may be 1 or more instances of this

i'm using this php:

$str = "hello {:first_name:} ha, this is {:awesome:} haha";
$do = preg_match_all("/{:(.*):}/", $str, $matches);


which works if theres just one instance, but when you use more than 1 instance (like the above example) it returns:

first_name:} ha, this is {:awesome

But i want it to return a value of first_name, AND a separate value of "awesome"

ideas?

thanks

I'm trying to come up with some code...and need to echo certain things based on which query failed.

There are several query's and while loops nested together.

I'm trying to use this...

Code: [Select]
<?php
$rs = mysql_query($sql,$dbc);  
if (! $rs) { echo "You aren't scheduled to work in the next seven days...but check back often as the schedule is adjusted often."; }
$matches = 0; 
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($rs))  
{
$matches++; 
//rest of code here...which work when there are matches...
?>

With no matches, it isn't echoing anything...instead of "You aren't scheduled to work in the next seven days...but check back often as the schedule is adjusted often."

If I echo out $rs, I get RESOURCE ID #6

Any ideas?  Thanks!

Hello guys.

I have the following code and I would like to count the number of times that the word has been replaced.
I tried echo count ($replacement) and echo count ($match) but both only show "1". I want to be able to tell if there has been a replacement and send a warning email and/or add a flag in the db.


Code: [Select]
$search_for_bad_words = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM badwords WHERE 1");
 
  $ad_title2 = $ad_title;
  $ad_body2  = $ad_body;
  //$wordlist = "shit:cr*p|dang:d*ng|shoot:sh**t";
  $seperate_text = "|";
  $entry_seperate_text = ":";

  while($row = mysql_fetch_array($search_for_bad_words))
  {
     $wordlist = $wordlist.$seperate_text.$row[word].$entry_seperate_text.$row[r_word];
  }
  $words = explode('|', $wordlist);
  foreach ($words as $word) {
  list($match, $replacement) = explode(':', $word);
  $ad_title2 = preg_replace("/([^a-z^A-Z]?)($match)([^a-z^A-Z]?)/i", "$1".$replacement."$3", $ad_title2);
  $ad_body2 = preg_replace("/([^a-z^A-Z]?)($match)([^a-z^A-Z]?)/i", "$1".$replacement."$3", $ad_body2);
  }
 
 

Thanks for all your help!

I am trying to use preg_match_all to find some information on a webpage.

Here is what I am currently using

<?php
$homepage = "http://www.example.com";
$page_contents1 = file_get_contents($homepage);
$names1 = preg_match_all('/<span class="video_date">(.*)</span> - <a class="b" href="/(.*)/">(.*)</a><br/>\/', $page_contents1, $matches1);
echo implode(", ", $matches1[1]);
?>


I am trying to match this piece of html:
<span class="video_date">Oct 21</span> - <a class="b" href="/meanwhilezealand/">   Meanwhile in New Zealand...</a><br/>

Thanks for looking!

I have noticed that if I run the preg_match_all function and use PREG_OFFSET_CAPTURE option to start capture somwhere in the middle of the string the second half of the string will be searched first returning the matching sections along with positions, then it goes up to the top half and returns matches from there too.
Is there way to parse only between start point and end of string?
