[PHP-DB] php/sendmail help!
Hi, I have a form, form results are PUSHED to another page and processed. Files below. (in plain-tet) Now this is what I want to do: 1) Make all fields required input, but if easy to configure I want to have rules for each textarea. For instance an email address must contain a '@' symbol. Must be at leat 5 character longs and must be in a form of an email address. So if I type [EMAIL PROTECTED] it would produce an error, highlighting the error area or display a message at the top of the page. Postcode should contain 4 numbers and numbers only, etc. The only field that can be left blank will be the message area. How do I achieve this? (message regarding this below) 2) I want to add to the form a UNIQUE ID generater. I will add a new hidden form field for this. I need a script called by PHP to generate it. Would include both letters and numbers and be atleast 8 CHARS long. As for 1) I have tried some javascript but it failed, since I PUSH all field responses to another page. When i add it the submit button fails and does not push the results through. But it produces the error fine, but form is not PUSHED on. So it seems it's lost because of the javascript. So i took it out completely. I think there is a way in PHP to call errors for forms? But anways, here are the files below. Please help, I am on a tight schedule here if anyone can assist me. file one looks like this: (form.php) ? include(header.php);? table width=800 border=0 tr td width=270 valign=top? include(menu.php);?/td td width=500 valign=center DIV ALIGN=JUSTIFY ? include(ads.php);? h1bPre Order Form!/h1/b TABLE WIDTH=90% ALIGN=left CELLSPACING=1 CELLPADDING=4 BORDER=0 FORM ACTION=contact1.php METHOD=POST font face=arial trtdFirst Name:/td tdINPUT TYPE=text NAME=firstname SIZE=25 MAXLENGTH=20/td/trBRBtrtd Last Name:/td/BtdINPUT TYPE=text NAME=lastname SIZE=25 MAXLENGTH=25/td/trBtrtd BtrtdCompany:/td/BtdINPUT TYPE=text NAME=company SIZE=25 MAXLENGTH=25/td/trBRBtrtd Unit/House #:/td/BtdINPUT TYPE=text NAME=address1 SIZE=25 MAXLENGTH=6/td/trBRBtrtd Street Name:/td/BtdINPUT TYPE=text NAME=address2 SIZE=25 MAXLENGTH=25/td/trBRBtrtd Suburb/Town:/td/BtdINPUT TYPE=text NAME=suburb SIZE=25 MAXLENGTH=25/td/trBRBtrtd Post Code/Zip:/td/BtdINPUT TYPE=text NAME=postcode SIZE=25 MAXLENGTH=25/td/trBRBtrtd Phone #:/td/BtdINPUT TYPE=text NAME=phone SIZE=25 MAXLENGTH=25/td/trBRBtrtd Email Address:/td/BtdINPUT TYPE=text NAME=emailaddress SIZE=25 MAXLENGTH=25/td/trBRBtrtd/td/Btd /td/trBRBtrtdCountry:/td/BtdSELECT NAME=country SIZE=1OPTION SELECTEDAUSTRALIAOPTIONNEW ZEALANDOPTIONFIJIOPTIONUNITED KINGDOMOPTIONGERMANYOPTIONSWEDENOPTIONCANADAOPTION-OPTIONAFGHANISTANOPTIONALBANIAOPTIONALGERIAOPTIONAMERICAN SAMOAOPTIONANDORRAOPTIONANGOLAOPTIONANGUILLAOPTIONANTARCTICAOPTIONANTIGUA AND BARBUDAOPTIONARGENTINAOPTIONARMENIAOPTIONARUBAOPTIONAUSTRIAOPTIONAZERBAIJANOPTIONBAHAMASOPTIONBAHRAINOPTIONBANGLADESHOPTIONBARBADOSOPTIONBELARUSOPTIONBELGIUMOPTIONBELIZEOPTIONBENINOPTIONBERMUDAOPTIONBHUTANOPTIONBOLIVIAOPTIONBOSNIA AND HERZEGOWINAOPTIONBOTSWANAOPTIONBOUVET ISLANDOPTIONBRAZILOPTIONBRITISH INDIAN OCEAN TERRITORYOPTIONBRUNEI DARUSSALAMOPTIONBULGARIAOPTIONBURKINA FASOOPTIONBURUNDIOPTIONCAMBODIAOPTIONCAMEROONOPTIONCANADAOPTIONCAPE VERDEOPTIONCAYMAN ISLANDSOPTIONCENTRAL AFRICAN REPUBLICOPTIONCHADOPTIONCHILEOPTIONCHINAOPTIONCHRISTMAS ISLANDOPTIONCOCOS (KEELING) ISLANDSOPTIONCOLOMBIAOPTIONCOMOROSOPTIONCONGOOPTIONCOOK ISLANDSOPTIONCOSTA RICAOPTIONCOTE D'IVOIREOPTIONCROATIA (local name: Hrvatska)OPTIONCUBAOPTIONCYPRUSOPTIONCZECH REPUBLICOPTIONDENMARKOPTIONDJIBOUTIOPTIONDOMINICAOPTIONDOMINICAN REPUBLICOPTIONEAST TIMOROPTIONECUADOROPTIONEGYPTOPTIONEL SALVADOROPTIONEQUATORIAL GUINEAOPTIONERITREAOPTIONESTONIAOPTIONETHIOPIAOPTIONFALKLAND ISLANDS (MALVINAS)OPTIONFAROE ISLANDSOPTIONFIJIOPTIONFINLANDOPTIONFRANCEOPTIONFRANCE, METROPOLITANOPTIONFRENCH GUIANAOPTIONFRENCH POLYNESIAOPTIONFRENCH OTHEROPTIONGABONOPTIONGAMBIAOPTIONGEORGIAOPTIONGERMANYOPTIONGHANAOPTIONGIBRALTAROPTIONGREECEOPTIONGREENLANDOPTIONGRENADAOPTIONGUADELOUPEOPTIONGUAMOPTIONGUATEMALAOPTIONGUINEAOPTIONGUINEA-BISSAUOPTIONGUYANAOPTIONHAITIOPTIONHEARD AND MC DONALD ISLANDSOPTIONHONDURASOPTIONHONG KONGOPTIONHUNGARYOPTIONICELANDOPTIONINDIAOPTIONINDONESIAOPTIONIRAN (ISLAMIC REPUBLIC OF)OPTIONIRAQOPTIONIRELANDOPTIONISRAELOPTIONITALYOPTIONJAMAICAOPTIONJAPANOPTIONJORDANOPTIONKAZAKHSTANOPTIONKENYAOPTIONKIRIBATIOPTIONKOREAOPTIONKUWAITOPTIONKYRGYZSTANOPTIONLATVIAOPTIONLEBANONOPTIONLESOTHOOPTIONLIBERIAOPTIONLIBYAN ARAB JAMAHIRIYAOPTIONLIECHTENSTEINOPTIONLITHUANIAOPTIONLOCATION NOT REPORTEDOPTIONLUXEMBOURGOPTIONMACAUOPTIONMACEDONIAOPTIONMADAGASCAROPTIONMALAWIOPTIONMALAYSIAOPTIONMALDIVESOPTIONMALIOPTIONMALTAOPTIONMARSHALL ISLANDSOPTIONMARTINIQUEOPTIONMAURITANIAOPTIONMAURITIUSOPTIONMAYOTTEOPTIONMEXICOOPTIONMICRONESIAOPTIONMOLDOVA, REPUBLIC
RE: [PHP-DB] php/sendmail help!
You are in serious need of some regex here...google email regex and you will
have enough results to get you what you want.
Postal Code (assume 2 letters 4 dgits in that order
if (ereg(^[A-Z]{2}{0-9]{4}$,$_POST['postal'])){
...
As for pasting it back to the form, I would suggest you have the form as a
function and the processing code as a function, then you can pass the post
arrays back and forth and pass the error handling along with it

[PHP-DB] css
Hi everyone,
I have created this website in PHP and mySQL at http://www.bps-testntag.com/
but have come accross an error I was not aware of before.
Now I am using stylesheets and I have been surfing the net for about 90
minutes and yet to find a solution, so thought I'd post here, could be basic
but i can't find it online anywhere. Get alot of forum refrences but no
solution.
Here is the code below before I continue:
style type=text/css
html {
background : url(images/background3.jpg);
}
body {
margin : 0;
padding : 0 1px;
border : 0;
height : 100px;
background : url(images/background3.jpg);
}
body {
font-family : arial, serif;
font-size : 16px;
}
#page {
margin : 310px 0 50px 250px;
display : block;
width : 500px;
border : 1 solid #000;
background : url(images/background3.jpg);
padding : 10px;
}
#page .right {
font-size : 30px;
float : right;
}
#menu {
display : block;
top : 110px;
left : 20px;
width : 130px;
position : fixed;
border : 0;
padding : 10px;
text-align : center;
font-weight : bold;
color : #fff;
}
* html #menu {
position : absolute;
}
#menu a:visited, #menu a {
display : block;
width : 120px;
height : 20px;
margin : 0 auto;
border-top : 0 solid #fff;
border-bottom : 0 solid #000;
text-align : center;
text-decoration : none;
line-height : 20px;
color : #000;
}
#menu a:hover {
background : #aaa;
color : #fff;
}
.clear {
clear : both;
}
p:first-letter {
font-size : 25px;
color : #cc;
}
#fixpic {
display : block;
width : 108px;
height : 145px;
position : fixed;
bottom : 0;
left : 0;
}
* html #fixpic {
position : absolute;
}
#adsie {
position : absolute;
top : 10px;
right : 30px;
}
/style
Now I have been told NOT to use px but use % for meassurements because
this is relient on resolution/screen_size.
HOWEVER what does 1px equal in %?
Some have said 30px equals 3% and some say 30px equals 30%. 30px and 30%
don't seem right, I changed my CSS for this and it pushes everything only
slightly to the RIGHT. But removes the menu altogether.
Can anyone offer some help here?
Also if a table is made like this:
table width=300 height=400 Is that default % or px or what? What is the
best method to use that will work in people using screens of 600* and 1024* and
both be able to view the site cleanly and easily?
I will continue to surf.

[PHP-DB] css #2
Okay I did some more surfing, on a VERY popular website used by neally a
million users. I checked their CSS and they use px and pt meassurements. So
maybe that is not my issue than. Maybe I don't have an issue to worry about?
What are people's thoughts on this, all the input the better here as I am
creating a website that will be viewed by alot of people so want it readable by
the majority. I know screen res of 600* is very old and few would use it, the
site appears pretty big with it but things appears just about where it should.
However when you try and view the copyright notice it cuts the last line out,
what causes this? Would It be useful to add to breaks at the end?

Not a php related question at all for starters but anywayi think you
need to read up on CSS layout's if the site is properly structure using
CSS then you will not have much to worry about regarding different
resolutions. Ever heard of floats?
google will show you the light!

should. However when you try and view the copyright notice it cuts the last
line out, what causes this? Would It be useful to add to breaks at the end?

Hi everyone,
I have created this website in PHP and mySQL at http://www.bps-testntag.com/
but have come accross an error I was not aware of before.
Now I am using stylesheets and I have been surfing the net for about 90
minutes and yet to find a solution, so thought I'd post here, could be basic
but i can't find it online anywhere. Get alot of forum refrences but no
solution.
Here is the code below before I continue:
html {
background : url(images/background3.jpg);
}
body {
margin : 0;
padding : 0 1px;
border : 0;
height : 100px;
background : url(images/background3.jpg);
}
body {
font-family : arial, serif;
font-size : 16px;
}
#page {
margin : 310px 0 50px 250px;
display : block;
width : 500px;
border : 1 solid #000;
background : url(images/background3.jpg);
padding : 10px;
}
#page .right {
font-size : 30px;
float : right;
}
#menu {
display : block;
top : 110px;
left : 20px;
width : 130px;
position : fixed;
border : 0;
padding : 10px;
text-align : center;
font-weight : bold;
color : #fff;
}
* html #menu {
position : absolute;
}
#menu a:visited, #menu a {
display : block;
width : 120px;
height : 20px;
margin : 0 auto;
border-top : 0 solid #fff;
border-bottom : 0 solid #000;
text-align : center;
text-decoration : none;
line-height : 20px;
color : #000;
}
#menu a:hover {
background : #aaa;
color : #fff;
}
.clear {
clear : both;
}
p:first-letter {
font-size : 25px;
color : #cc;
}
#fixpic {
display : block;
width : 108px;
height : 145px;
position : fixed;
bottom : 0;
left : 0;
}
* html #fixpic {
position : absolute;
}
#adsie {
position : absolute;
top : 10px;
right : 30px;
}
Now I have been told NOT to use px but use % for meassurements because
this is relient on resolution/screen_size.
HOWEVER what does 1px equal in %?
Some have said 30px equals 3% and some say 30px equals 30%. 30px and 30%
don't seem right, I changed my CSS for this and it pushes everything only
slightly to the RIGHT. But removes the menu altogether.
Can anyone offer some help here?
Also if a table is made like this:
Is that default % or px or what? What is the best method to use that will
work in people using screens of 600* and 1024* and both be able to view the
site cleanly and easily?
I will continue to surf.

[PHP-DB] Re: generating random id's
JeRRy [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Just to let you all know I used PHP's unique ID generator to generate a unique id for tracking purposes. I than md5 it hide the format a bit, would this be enough? Or can be easily worked out also? Need it pretty tight and keeping the likelyhood down of having multiple listings of id's. It's using 32 chars. So, I'm guessing/interpreting here: You have a table that has records in it, each record has a unique ID (an auto-increment field). You want to be able to send some magic ID with an html page, so that you can identify the record when the page response comes back. But, you don't want the end-user to easily alter the ID to discover a different record. Now, I don't have a clear understanding of what you have doe with the 32 char item: Idea #1) You have added another field RndID which you generate for each record, and use this as the published record ID. Idea #2) You take the ID, and mangle it, and use the mangled ID as the published record ID. When it comes back, you un-mangle it to get the true ID. I've used idea #1 before. I set the RndID field as Unique, so I never have duplicates. If the record update fails, I generate a different random ID and try again. I've never used idea#2.

Used the random number generator and chr()'d anything that's printable ascii, looping until I have the desired length, then md5'd it. It works and generates a peculiar value.

[PHP-DB] Numbers to words
Is there a command within PHP that would convert numbers to words:
echo 1;
# 1 appears on screen
echo command('1');
# one appears on screen --- what would the command be?
