[PHP] Sessions - going back in browser

[Craig Donnelly]

Hello,

I had an issue that I needed to be able to go back in the browser while in a
session without getting "page has expired", I was reading through the manual
and came across a comment about adding the following to the sessions page to
allow users to traverse back:

header("Cache-control: private");
(http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.session-start.php)

This works fine on a Win32 dev box running Apache 1.3.x and PHP 5.0.3, but
then I loaded the pages onto a RedHat box running PHP 5.0.3 on Apache
1.3.27.  This box is running these pages through SSl (https)

Anyone any ideas?

Regards,
Craig

[PHP] PHP5 & FreeTDS

[Craig Donnelly]

I had FreeTDS and PHP 4.3.x working fine, then I upgraded my PHP

installation to PHP 5.0.3, now It isnt working.

On the page where I connect to the MSSQL server I get the following error:

Warning: mssql_connect() [function.mssql-connect]: Unable to connect to
server: 172.16.xx.xxx in /var/ftpusers/tarot/tarot/admin/sqltest.php on line
4

This worked fine before, and I tested it on another box which is also
running freeTDS with PHP 5.0.1 and it

connects fine. Anyone any Ideas??

Craig

[PHP] Re: Sessions nightmare continue...

[Craig Donnelly]

Why are you testing if $_POST['submit'] is set are you posting something to
the page??

In the two scripts you posted the code block wont be executed because there
is no post variable
being set.

Try this:

a1.php
==
   


 

==

AND

a2.php
==
session variable NOT set");
 }else{
  echo("session variable set");
 }

 echo("session ID: " . session_id());
 echo("session value: " . $_SESSION["login"]);
?>


 

==

Works fine now.

Re: [PHP] Re: Checking for form submission

[Craig Donnelly]

Ok, in simple form - If the submit button was clicked,
If some one hits enter this would be a problem, easy way to resolve
this would be to have a hidden form element flagged and to terst for that
instead of the
submit button, wouldnt you agree Jason?

[PHP] Re: Checking for form submission

[Craig Donnelly]

Hi Shaun,

Your  expression is evaluating, if you like does the $_POST superglobal
exist and it does
but might be empty, this would be the same for $_GET and other superglobals.

If you did the following:

if (isset($_POST) && !empty($_POST)) {
   echo '(isset($_POST))';
}

This would only appear if there was in fact a $_POST variable 'set'.

If you want to test to see if a form has been submitted, I would suggest
that you
use the name from the submit button.

e.g - 

if(isset($_POST['sendform'])){
echo "Form has been submitted!";
}

So basically this checks if the form button "sendform" is set.

HTH,

Craig

you don't want the user to have the password?? how else are they

1. don't store the password in plain text. store it as a hash.
2. make the file readable only to root and the user that PHP/Apache runs
under.

that's about all i know.

[PHP] Re: checkbox question

[Craig Donnelly]

This will work:
  http://www.php.net/array_merge

Call your checkboxes like so:

a.php
==
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

==

then post it to the desired page and do something like this:

b.php
==
";
 print_r($foo);  // Look whats in the array
 echo "";
?>
==


Best of luck,

Craig

[PHP] Re: checkbox question

[Craig Donnelly]

Why cant you use square brackets??

call all your checkboxes the following:

interesting_area[]

Then post it to whatever page, now all the checkboxes that were checked are
held in a array (interesting_area)

To see what is contained in the array, do the following:

";
print_r($_POST[interesting_area]);
echo "";
?>

>From here it depends on what you want to do with the data..

You can loop through the array, using for(), foreach() or while(), or
alternatively write a function to manipulate the data.

Hope that helps,

Craig

[PHP] Session Registering

[Craig Donnelly]

Im using session in my form, there are 6 pages to the form, It all works
fine, until You work your way back through the form, to ammend the filled in
details.

e.g - If I go to page 1, and fill out my name, and post to the next page,
heres the code Im using:



PHP:









Its registered on the top of page2 with the following code:


PHP:

session_start();
$_SESSION['firstname']=$_POST['firstname'];





That works fine, I have a link on all my pages that links back to the
previous page e.g Go Back

If I go back to the first page, from the second page the fields are
populated fine, but If i continue onto page3.php then go back page1.php is
no longer populated!!

Any Ideas why this is happening?? and If so a remedy, Is it a code issue or
a conf Issue??

Thanks
C
