PHP - Maze Map With Php / Serverside Storage

Hello All,   I am trying to write an code on server-side when the request come from the url containing id as parameter and based upon the parameter process and send the response.   can you please provide any reference for this or sample code?   Thanks & Regards, ShailShin

I am trying to set the hidden input in the javascript but it doesn't set it in the php. 

This is the form with the hidden input. It corresponds to a field in the database table with the name of draggables.

<form method="post" accept-charset="utf-8" id="myForm2" action="/mealplans/add">

<input type="hidden" name="draggables" id="drag12"/>

<button id="myId" type="submit">Submit Form</button>

</form>

This is where I change the value in the javascript:

if(data == "draggable3"){
alert("data " + data);
var x = document.getElementById("drag12").value;
x =  "draggable3";
alert(x);
} //end if

                
The alert pops up with draggable3 as it should but the value of null is what gets saved in the database. The javascript doesn't change the PHP value; it only changes the client side value.         

I've also tried getElementsByName but that didn't work either.

var y = document.getElementsByName("draggables").value;    //only changes it on the client

This is actually a cakephp site but this problem is with the PHP so I am publishing it here.

Hi,

What is a good way to store passwords using php and postgresql and what columns/column types do I need to do so? I've got a table 'users'

I've tried to find a straight forward answer but am confused by 'salting' etc.

Thanks

I'm busy with a small storage system for my site, but i encounter some problems with it.
I have successfully managed to get all products from the order, and traced on what spots those product are in the warehouse.
It looks like this atm http://img37.imageshack.us/img37/7302/tableordereng.jpg

this is the code i have atm (sorry i program in dutch, i hope its abit understandable)

Code: [Select]
<?php

$query = "select * from `orderregel` WHERE `ordernr`='".$ordernr."'";
   $row = mysql_fetch_array( $query );
            
   echo "<table border=1 width=680 bgcolor=#FFFFFF>
     <tr>
            <th width= 100>artikelnummer</th>
        <th width= 100>productnaam</th>
            <th width= 40>Plaats</th>
        <th width= 40>aantal in magazijn</th>
            <th width= 40>aantal nodig</th>          
     </tr>
         </table>";  
                      
            foreach ( self::find_by_sql($query) as $user)
            {   
                $query2 = "select * from magazijn WHERE artikelnr = ".$user->artikelnr."";
                $row = mysql_fetch_array( $query );
            
                foreach ( self::find_by_sql($query2) as $magazijn)
                {
                echo "<table class= order_overzicht border= 0 width= 680>";
                echo "<tr>    
                        <td width= 100>".$magazijn->artikelnr."</td>            
                        <td width= 100>".$magazijn->productnaam."</td>
                        <td width= 40>".$magazijn->magazijn_plaats."</td>
                        <td width= 40>".$magazijn->aantal."</td>
                        <td width= 40>".$user->aantal."</td>
                      </tr>
                      </table>";
                }
            }
?>

The problem i have now is, that i want it to do the following.
for example someone orders 430 packages of Haribo Kers Cola (see imageshack upload). I first want it to empty spot 16 in the wherehouse.
Only when spot 16 is empty, i want it to go to the next spot (19) wich contains the same product.

the end result would be something like this:

thanks in advance

(Sorry btw for my bad english )

My users table on my forum is what gets checked everytime a user refreshes to authentic them.    When killing a monster, I want users to be able to grab items and it will insert them into their inventory. I have this part done already. But I want them to have a plethora of loot available that drops from a mob, and once they click the specific item it will then be inserted into their inventory (server database).   I'm storing the Temporary Item Data in a PHP session variable. Once they kill a monster, the Tempory Item Data variable get's filled with the specific loot and then the user will have the option to choose what items they want to go into their inventory.   My problem is, if they open the game in a new browser they will get a new session id. Since I'm authenticating them through my users table, can I just make a new column called session_id and just use php's session_id() before every session start so no matter which browser they're on they will have the same session right?    You might think, well why dont you just store the temporary item data in a mysql field or rows instead? I want to try to minimize mysql usage as much as possible, as players will be CLICKING a lot to kill mobs, it is most likely very mysql demanding as well and I want to be intuitive about it. I just want to use temporary session data for the loot. Then once the user clicks an item they want, it is EXTRACTED from their tempory item data variable, then I will use MYSQL to insert those items into their inventory.    Is this a fair and intuitive way to do temporary data for item loot? For example, in action RPG's like Path of Exile you kill a group of mobs and you see a shit ton of loot on the floor. (I imagine that loot is just temporary waiting for someone to pick it up right?) Once you do pick it up, mysql is then called to save it right? That's the same logic I have with my web based game. Is using a session variable to store that temporay loot.   Is this an intuitive way to do this, or are there other ways?
