Importance: Low
Well i thought about changeing access levels into numbers so that only
LARGER numbers can access lower numbers and Lower numbers can't access
anything higher ... if that makes sence ...
So 3 can access 2 and 1,
2 can't access 3, but can access 2 and 1 and one can't access 2 or 3, but
can 1 ...
assuming that $siteAccessLevel is = to eather level-1, level-2 or level-3
...
if ($slevel >= $glevel) {
is the line i can't seem to get right.
*GRIN* any help? code below.
if ($siteAccessLevel == "level-1") { $slevel = "1"; }
else if ($siteAccessLevel == "level-2") { $slevel = "2"; }
else if ($siteAccessLevel == "level-3") { $slevel = "3"; }
if ($gAccessLevel == "level-1") { $glevel = "1"; }
else if ($gAccessLevel == "level-2") { $glevel = "2"; }
else if ($gAccessLevel == "level-3") { $glevel = "3"; }

Re: [PHP] File upload Stuff ... well kinda.
Check the permissions on the directory you are trying to upload your files. The host I am using required me to either chmod the upload directory to 777 (not what I wanted to do) or run PHP with cgi-wrap enabled - this allowed my PHP application to run as the user and therefore had permission to write to a directory. Check with the host on this. - Charles On Saturday, March 15, 2003, at 09:53 PM, Philip J. Newman wrote: RIghto then.

RE: [PHP] Performance and Function Calls
Storing the results of a function in a variable and referencing the
variable will almost always be faster, this should be no surprise
because instead of executing the function PHP just has to return the
variable's value.
In #1 since you only call the function once the function is only
executed once, in a loop it is executed once for each loop iteration.

You need this:

$variable1 = "Something different from it's original value"
$variable2 = "I'm changed also!!"
}

You could use a seperate counter like this:
$x = 1;
while(list($key,$val) = each($r_p_dras)){
$n = "dra_$x";
echo $n;
$$n = $val['dra_id'];
$x ++;

[PHP] checking array
what is the best way to check, if a value is NOT in an array?
the purpose is to take results from a webpage and check one-by-one if they
are in the txt file already. if they are not, i have to write them there..
If they are in there then i just want to leave them alone.
this is what i came up with so far:
http://site.com', 'r');
for ($src = ''; !feof ($fp); $src .= fgets ($fp, 1024));
fclose ($fp);
preg_match_all ('/\(.*)\<\/td\>/isU', $src, $sum, PREG_SET_ORDER);
$i=0;
$result=file('boot.txt');
while($sum[$i][1] && $i<50){
$word=$sum[$i][1];
if(in_array($word, $result)){}
else{
$word = "\n".$word;
$addtxt = fopen('boot.txt', 'a');
fputs($addtxt,$word);
fclose($addtxt);
}
$i++;
}
?>
but somehow it still writes into the txtfile if if an identical line is
already there.
could somebody please correct the code or suggest a better option for
checking?
thank you

This seems like what I need exactly, but I am having a bit of trouble
getting it to work.
Here is how I have worked around this, but I know there is a 'real' way
to do this. Any thoughts? I had to set the variables, or should I just
use the variables as ${dra_0} etc.?
// get the values for the default dra from array
while(list($key,$val) = each($r_p_dras)){
$n = "dra_$key";
echo $n;
$$n = $val['dra_id'];
}
$dra_a = "${dra_0}";
$dra_b = "${dra_1}";
$dra_c = "${dra_2}";

Hi Chris (and all others),
This seems to me a very common "problem". I managed it too with different
approaches including complete on the fly code generation, but I don't think
that I have already the perfect solution.
Does anyone have more information on this topic?

Metatable
Suppose you've got one db table (meta-table) desribing the content of
various other tables, for instance
ID
tablename
fieldname
fieldtype [integer|textarea|choicelist|link_to_other_table|]
default_value
permissions
The easy part: make an interface so people can design their own db table,
the description of every field goes into the metatable and the field is
added to the datatable it refers to. With templates one can now quickly
make show/edit/add/overview pages. I managed that.
Now I want to have choice lists that come from new tables. For instance:
with this system they made a table
person (gender, name, etc), now i want to add a choice list of
institutions, where the institutions are in another table (institute
name, address, etc). Doing this directly is easier than doing it via
this extra table. Let them use a class?

You could put logic in your header and footer file not to display output
if $_GET['action'] == 'print'.

[PHP] Performance and Function Calls
Hey all. Quick question: If I have a function that, say, prints out the months in a year, and I call that function within a 10 cycle loop, which of the following is faster: 1) Have function months() return months as a string; set var string_months = months() outside of the loop; then echo string_months within the loop -- OR 2) Just call months() for each iteration through the loop I'm not sure how PHP interprets option number 1.

For example, if we wanted to track parameters called x and y, the link on the page would just point to: /index.php but the weblog would show something like the following hit: /index.php?x=foo&y=bar The parameter values would need to get set once at the beginning of a user's session, and then would not change over the course of that session (but they'd need to get tracked with every request they made).

Re: [PHP] Dynamic titles.
You can split $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] on the /'s to get the directories, eg: http://site.com/info/your_pet/dogs/page.html would result in /dir/anotherdir/page.php So, (untested code): Should echo something like: 'Name of My Site / Info / Your Pets / Dogs' All you need to to do is echo $title in the title tag, and season to taste :) Justin on 14/03/03 4:44 AM, Sebastian ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote: > Hello. > > I have many pages, and was thinking of a way to generate dynamic page > titles, very similar to a breadcrumb where it uses the directory structure > to make the page title. > > Anyone have something like this, and is willing to give a hand? > > warm regards, > Sebastian - [BBR] Gaming Clan > http://www.broadbandreports.com > -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Crypting Passwords for storage.
Commonly, you don't need to encrypt it. just md5() the password before inserting it, so you only store the md5'd password. then, to check on login, md5() the password they enter into a form... if they match, then they are the same. heaps less code, no need to mycrypt libraries to be installed, etc etc. the only catch is that if the user forgets the password, you need to reset it, because md5 is one-way, and isn't technically encryption :) justin on 14/03/03 1:31 PM, Philip J.

This is a PHP port of a well respected Perl script which CHECKS THE FORMAT
OF THE EMAIL ADDRESS AGAINST THE RCF SPEC.
I use it EVERYWHERE :)

Re: [PHP] checking $_POST variables
As explained already, not a good idea :)
Also, if someone makes a copy of your form and excludes one of the fields,
then it won't be set in POST at all.
Keep an array of the fields you have in the form. I choose to set the field
as the key, and then for the value either 1 (required) or 0 (not required):
1,
'last' => 0,
'email' => 1',
'age' => 0,
'sex' => 0
);
?>
Then include it where needed:
Then use the array to check POST values are set, or better still, not empty:
$val)
{
if($val)
{
if(empty($_POST[$key]) // could also be if(!isset($_POST[$key]))
{
$error = 3;
}
}
}
if($error)
{
header("Location: signup.php?error={$error}");
exit();
}
?>
In your case, street2 could be set to 0, and the rest set to 1.
You may also find that you can use the same array to write all your form
code as well, with a little work!!
