[PHP] Re: input on sessions vs cookies
#ORIGINAL## i would like your input on session vs cookies regarding login data like usernames/passwords ect... END ORIGINAL - Main difference is that cookies are stored on the client machine and session is maintained on server machine. - Cookies can store information for longer period of time even if client leaves website whereas session is destroyed as soon as browser is closed - It is not adivsable to store passwords in cookies until unless you are using strong encryption algorithm - Session can also be hijacked by getting session id of an authenticated user - If you only want to use session or cookies use both. Store username in cookie so that when user visits your website later, you can prefill the username field. Store username in session for small period of time so that when user exits the session is destroyed - To ensure best security use database as well. Store IP, Session ID, username, login time. After every few minutes you can re authenticate the user against these parameters. -- Regards Fahad Pervaiz www.ecommerce-xperts.com (Shopping Cart Applications, Framework for Multilingual Web Sites, Web Designs)

How are you differentiating sessions vs cookies? Sessions are often implemented USING cookies. If you mean sessions using a session ID in the URL, versus using cookies to save actual user info then you are already confused. Cookies should use the same mechanism as a URL session ID. That is to say, they should store a unique identifier that can be used to lookup the user's actual information. In this way the data that can be manipulated by the dark forces is limited to one value... namely the unique identifier.

RE: [PHP] Include file path.. please help im newby
Include path and include() function is different things. Include path: this is paths where PHP will look for files tried to be included if it doesn't exist in script directory. If you do include("afile.php") and afile.php doesn't exist in the same directory as where your script that is calling the include is. Then it will first look in . /include /usr/lib/php Take a look here http://www.php.net/include to read more about the include function in PHP.

Re: [PHP] GET doesn't work as POST
What I don't understand is why you're getting kind in the first place at all. The form you're referring to, I presume, is this one (simplified HTML to avoid word wrapping in email): Regionen suchen mit ... Verband: Fussballverband Region Zrich (FVRZ) - Alle - Gel�cht Eingetragen Gltig From that, you shouldn't be submitting a kind variable either way. All I can think of is the PHP_SELF submission, which would include the same GET query as you used to get to that page. I don't recall off hand if PHP_SELF includes the full URI or not. Try this: print_r($_GET); print_r($_POST); print_r($_REQUEST); Yes, you can end up with both a GET and a POST. (I'm not sure if it's technically legal in the HTTP standard, but it can happen in practice, IIRC.) My best guess at the moment is that "kind" is ending up in the wrong one somehow.

Re: [PHP] New Menu Bar - Can people test it for me?
Yup, that's nice. As others had told you, it doesn't work in IE6. On the other hand, the first time your page is loaded (or when the download speed is low), and when the mouse pointer is on "General", it takes quite some time to draw the menu bar background. And that gives the feeling that something's wrong ... until ten seconds later when everything is drawn out. I've included an attached image that you could see, hope it's not filtered out by the mailing-list server. You know, you could load those background images first in your page using cache. > On Wed, February 21, 2007 6:12 am, Scott Gunn wrote: > > http://www.thebigspider.co.uk/test/menu.html -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

With this code. $sno = $_REQUEST['sno']; $query="SELECT logos FROM table WHERE sno = '$sno'"; $result=mysql_query($query); $num=mysql_numrows($result); mysql_close(); $logos=mysql_result($result,$i,"logos"); echo " $logos "; ?> But getting errors. What is the way to call image in php file from the database. I know that this is a very basic question but first time for me. I ignored this in the begining but now its right infront of me. Please advice. #END ORIGINAL# There are two ways to store images in databases. First is that you upload your images to a directory and store path to that image in the database. In this case make sure that your field size is large enough to store the complete path. You can use the following code to retreive the image and display it. $sno = $_REQUEST['sno']; $query="SELECT logos FROM table WHERE sno = '$sno' limit 1"; $result=mysql_query($query); $num=mysql_numrows($result); if ( ! $result ) die("Unable to get records"); while($row= mysql_fetch_array( $result )) { $image= $row["sno"]; } mysql_close(); echo " "; The second method is a bit complicated. You store images in a binary field of database and when you retrieve the image, you retrieve it via proxy file e.g. image.php the image.php outputs the image using header you can make call to it from you abc.html as follows -- Regards Fahad Pervaiz www.ecommerce-xperts.com (Shopping Carts, Framwork for Multilingual Web Sites, Web Designs) -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
