Why not md5 the password, and store the md5 encryption.
Then when they type something in, md5 it and compare the md5 strings.
That will ensure that it is Case Sensitive

I could be wrong, but I didn't see anything about a username. It
sounds to me more like it is a single password shared with all the
people who should have access to a specific, non-personalized area of
the site. It certainly wouldn't be my preferred way to set up
security, but depending on the level of risk involved it may be
sufficient.

Andrew:
I had the exact same case with a client. My client teaches classes
and wanted to provide the attendees with a url where they could
download PDF files for the class.
In this case, they only needed a password AND the password was
identical for everyone.
Sure attendees could distribute the url and password, but requiring a
password makes it just a bit harder than just giving out the url and
allowing everyone/thing to download the files. The file were
delivered to the user by a password protected script, so no one could
bookmark the files.
And doing it this way required no effort by my client to keep track
of user names. He just taught the class, gave out the url/password,
and the software did the rest.
So, in this case it made sense.
Cheers,
tedd

Hi,
How to create an associative array of this kind in PHP?
return array(
12345 => array(
'mail' => '[EMAIL PROTECTED]',
'companyName' => 'Asdf Inc.',
),
54321 => array(
'mail' => '[EMAIL PROTECTED]',
'companyName' => 'Asdfu Corp.',
),
);
Thanks

Well you have already created one. :)
return array(
12345 => array(
'mail' => '[EMAIL PROTECTED]',
'companyName' => 'Asdf Inc.'
),
54321 => array(
'mail' => '[EMAIL PROTECTED]',
'companyName' => 'Asdfu Corp.'
)
);
Just removed the trailing commas and reformatted a bit. ;)

This is the right PHP syntax, except that you've got an extraneous
comma before the closing parenthesis of each array that's going to
throw a parse error.

Actually that's allowed (and by design too) :)

Yep, it's there to primarily simplify generated PHP code. Additionally,
it sure makes commenting out chunks simple since you don't need to
comment out the preceding comma if commenting out the last entry.

Thanks. I could have sworn I'd gotten parse errors on that. Damned
cross-language memory leakage...
I've gotten into the habit of writing comma-delimited lists like so:
(item
,item
,item
,item
);
which works for functions with long parameter lists and SQL field
lists as well as arrays.

Unfortunately, commenting out the first entry brings you back to the
same problem of commenting out the last entry in the event trailing
commas weren't supported. You've merely reversed the problem...
unnecessarily so ;)
Personally, I use two styles of long parameters in my code (I still try
to write code to 78 characters wide). If a single line drop will suffice
I do the following:
functionWithLotsOfParams(
$param1, $param2, $param3, $param4, $param5, $param6 );
If I would still get wrapping, then I use a block style:
functionWithFarToManyParamsOrLongVariableNames
(
$param1, $param2, $param3, $param4, $param5, $param6,
$param7, $param8, $param9, $paramA, $paramB, $paramC
);
Unlike array declarations, it's unlikely the parameter count will change
often :)
Cheers,
Rob.
Ps. Please Tedd... don't show an example using your weird ass
indentation style -- it makes me shudder that I might ever have to
maintain someone's code that follows your style ;)

Hi tedd
My final solution was.
class conf {
public static $vals = array(); // config array

conf::$vals['mysql_host'] = 'localhost';
conf::$vals['mysql_user'] = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
you can access anywhere of your script and you won't need to pollute $GLOBALS.

Yeah, but now your code is OOP polluted. :-)

Very true - you'll also find me on one or two OT lists :-)
I don't know the story with the PHP lists, but if it's of any use, I'd
be happy to host a PHP-OT mailing list.

It was obviously off-topic from the beginning,... however it felt
somehow OK... - I mean, it gave the list a personal touch and every
successful organization dreams of its people having a more personal touch.
I'd also hate it if the list goes greatly off-topic inflated, but, I
think, I'd hate it exactly as much if it was a dry on-topic thing where
nobody says anything personal. If we were not so divided in time and
space, we would occasionally meet for a "beer" - for me the off-topic
explosions are the digital equivalent of this.

Didn't think of it.
Actually, I do not like the include_path - it is too esoteric... - kind
of a fog - I prefer to know where things I call come from :) - as it is
said in Harry Potter - "Never trust an object of magic if you do not
know where it keep its brains." ;)
But thanks, anyway!

There's nothing dirty about dirname(), and for your issue, just call it
twice:
dirname(dirname(__FILE__));
I called "dirty" the ".." in my example.
Yes, dirname(dirname(__FILE__)); is the way to go - I was just too
brainwashed and did not think I can apply it to a directory, too.

Don't have time to customize it for you, but that's how it can be done-
header("HTTP/1.0 404 Not Found");
/*
*
* I copied the DOCTYPE from what Apache 1.3.34 returns.
*
*/
echo "<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC \"-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN\">";
echo "<html>";
echo "<head>";
echo "<title>404 Not Found</title>";
echo "</head>";
echo "<body>";
echo "<h1>Not Found</h1>";
echo "<p>The requested URL " . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URL'] . "was not found
on this server.</p>";
echo "<hr>";
Note, that you must not have any output before sending header(). There
is a way to check, write back, if interested how.

Actually... If you print this text, the web server sends status 200 to

The code I sent you sends custom 404 Not Found - in case you need that.
