Not asking for complete mail addresses probably work best in most
companies, but we're so used to typing our complete address that I would
need to have a control and removal of domain -only to add again for sending
the mail.
Yes the first part of this already has a separate account validation, it
also logs a request into our internal support system.
Naturally if a external mail address is filled in there will be no request
created, and I could have stopped the script there.
This way I can stop use of external mail, while a contractor that not yet
have a account in our logging system will still be able to send a Email
request
At a later stage I might add email validation and even pick up details
such as phone numbers and titles, but for now this little extra piece was
sufficient
Thanks again,
Bob

Agreed with the method suggested by Richard here, this is surely a safer
way.
@Robert - are you a newbie to PHP or also to web programing.. or as a
matter of fact to programing..
Just to share that validating user's input is always advisable, esp. in
the web world. Thus, even if you use the method suggested by Richard, but I
shall then also advise you to apply proper validations at the input (like
permissible characters, maximum length allowed etc..)

Hi,
I'm newbie to PHP and this list, possible not a new question so forgive
me if
it's a repeat
I have a form where I want the submitter Email ID to only be from one
domain
Here's the part I'm having issues with
$domain = explode( @, $who);
if ( $domain[1] == company.com) {
echo $domain[1];
echo(h3Email invalid./h3);
exit;
}
First Echo is just for me to check
I type in a correct Email ID, say m...@company.com
The return of this is:
company.com
Email invalid.
As far as I can see this if statement should not fall in, what am I
missing?
Why bother asking for the entire address? Just ask for the name part
and display the domain name on the form?
label for=emailEnter your email address: input type=text
name=email id=email /@company.com/label
sort of thing.

Hi guys,
I have a form that has a long list of radio-bottons inside of it. The
radio-buttons are dynamically created via php and MySQL.
Here is an example of one of the radio buttons:
input type=radio name=?php print (radio_.$result_from_mysql) ; ?
value=0
input type=radio name=?php print (radio_.$result_from_mysql) ; ?
value=1
Now, when I submit this form to another page for processing, how would I catch
the above radio-button's $_POST name since I do not know the name, only that it
starts with radio_ ?
Thank You

One method is a foreach() loop.
?php

if (preg_match('/^radio_/Ui',trim($k))) {
echo $k.' is a match, and it\'s value is '.$v.'.br/'.PHP_EOL;

[PHP] Possible to pinpoint peak memory usage?
Hello, Is it possible to pinpoint the location where the most memory was used? I log memory_get_peak_usage() in sections of my code where I believe the most memory would be consumed, but I haven't had luck with getting an accurate picture. I also log the peak usage at the very end of the code. I can see memory usage go up in places that I expected it to, but then things are pretty much flat lined. However, the peak usage at the very end shows a much higher number, sometimes it could be twice as large. I'm also tracing with xdebug. At the beginning of the trace memory starts off low, then it goes up as things are allocated. It also goes back down as things are deallocated. But never do I see the numbers as high as what PHP is reporting as the peak. It looks like xdebug traces at every step of execution, shouldn't the memory usage shown in the trace be the actual usage for every single step in the code? Why is PHP reporting that peak was much higher? Maybe I'm not understanding this stuff correctly? Thanks, daniel

Your example would be good if the OP wanted checkbox'es. But with radio

to have one of the radio input fields selected at any given time. How you
showed it, it would not see the uniqueness of the radio button names, and
therefor allow more than one of the radio input fields to be selected at a time.
I would try something like this:
As long as this is correct:
input type=radio name=radio_?php echo $result_from_mysql; ? value=0
/Zero
input type=radio name=radio_?php echo $result_from_mysql; ? value=1
/One
Then I would do the following:
foreach ($_POST as $k = $v) {
if ( strpos(trim($k), 'radio_') === 0 ) {
echo $k.' is a match, and it\'s value is '.$v.'.br/'.PHP_EOL;

One radio button of the same name selected at a time yes. From the OP's
code of two radios, one with value 0 and one with value 1, I assumed
these were to be a pair with the same name with only one able to be
successful. This extends to arrays as well:
input type=radio name=radio[] value=0
input type=radio name=radio[] value=1
input type=radio name=radio[555] value=0
input type=radio name=radio[555] value=1
This works as expected, the same as the code I posted.

It APPEARS TO ME that you are setting a variable called buttonName
to the extracted value stored in $key for each name in the post
submission, and a variable named buttonValue for the item's value.
THEM, you do the same thing again to the same destination variables
for the next name/value pair, and so-on until they list of
name/value pairs is exhausted. IF this understanding is correct,
only the LAST name/value pair will emerge from the process intact;
prior values will be obliterated. Would they not be better to append
them to a single dimensioned array, which starts life as a null
array? If I am getting this wrong, please administer wet mackerel
therapy to my tired head and explain the facts.

[PHP] Zend Framework - getParam() Question
Hi Everyone,
Zend Framework getParam question
I'm trying to get a value from the url...
I know how to grab:
http;//www.website.com/index/user/1
that's the index controller, $this-_getParam('user'); (value = 1)..
What I'd like to be able to grab is just off one thing from the url...
example.. I want to give an article a unique/clean url... so, when I go to:
http://www.website.com/article-clean-url
I can somehow grab that 'article-clean-url' as a value and use it for a
lookup in the database.
I've tried everything and search all over the place. I can't find the
answer. Can someone tell me how this is done? Thanks...

Re: [PHP] Zend Framework - getParam() Question
Hi Dan
One method for this is to use URL Rewriting (which can be implemented on
Apache using htaccess).
Through URL Rewriting you can first make the following URL:
http://www.website.com/article-clean-url
http://www.website.com/article-clean-urlto internally behave as the
following:
http://www.website.com/index/user/ http://www.website.com/index/user/11
http://www.website.com/index/user/1and then you can use the same getParam
method to grab the value and carry out further processing.
Hope this helps.
Cheers

You can also try routing in zend..

Re: [PHP] Re: Delaying $(document).ready() in jQuery until php script finish
I think the OP is having both PHP JS codes mixed and scattered all over the page. If chunked-encoding used without any ob* implementation, then that's the problem he'll experience. Richard, I recommend to put the $(document).ready() and any JS scriptlets within body/body tags at the very bottom of the HTML document just right before /body. This would allow the mixed PHP/HTML to finish without creating problems for your JS code(s). The other solution is implement output buffer using ob* functions.

The solution you're proposing is ideal which, for the most part, would probably require the app redesign/rewrite. However, if Richard isn't one of the originator(s) of the app's developers or he's only experiencing the problem on a very few limited pages, moving the JS codes to the bottom would be a faster fix. In the end, it all depends on his environment and immediate need. The other solution is implement output buffer using ob* functions.

Speed wasn't the point- Multiple technology usage was the point. And if you're going to poise a browser for multiple intercepts(in terms of languages), then C *seems* to be the best was to move toward the displayment of it's descendants. If it's going to be a multi-language project, then it needs to be addressed with a multilanguage source to stem from, and C would seem like the optimum epicenter for propagation of this.
