[PHP] Re: .htpasswd and PayPal generated passwords
Hi David, When using the IPN feature that PayPal offers, you can optionally have them generate a username:password pair for you. That way it will be stored at paypal and the user can check their history to retrieve it anytime.

Re: [PHP] Test links?
Well, the reason I didn't do that at first was that I could have done any of the methods that I've tried incorrectly, which is why I figured I'd ask what works and then focus on that method... but, I've tried to ping them, use fopen, and use fsocketopen... but nothing says that I've used any of them the way I should have :) I also tried to use the scripts that I found at hotscripts.com but I always seem to get inconsistent results and it must be accurate.

Okay, I'm confused... file, fopen, and fsockopen seem to say not found on

Re: [PHP] Test links?
Thanks for the help and suggestions everybody!
I think some of my problems stemmed from the affiliate links being
redirected and PHP saw that as dead(so to speak)... but I think I got it
now. I made another column in the database to note a redirection for ones
that the url fails but the $url[host] passes.

I think you have assigned $fp to be the imploded string, not a file
pointer. Thus fclose($fp) would generate an error. Given this, I'm not
sure what if (!$fp) would mean.

[PHP] Insert an array into MySQL
Hi, I've seen a few post for this same thing but I can't seem to get it
working. What I'm doing is taking a form with check boxes and putting them
into an array. Then I'm attempting to INSERT them into the db, one checkbox
value per row.
Okay, well I've tries 2 ways that I think should work and they only insert
the first value. They both produce this error Duplicate entry '0' for key
1 (which I don't understand) Anyway here is the code I'm trying...
(I'm not trying to use both blocks of code, just one or the other)
// First code
while(list($key,$value)=each($pagetype)){
//echo $value.br;//test
$links=INSERT INTO $username_links (links) VALUES ('$value');
$insert=mysql_query($links,$connection);
}
// Second code attempt
$number=count($pagetype);
for($a=0;$a$number;$a++){
$links=INSERT INTO $username_links (links) VALUES ('$pagetype[$a]');
$insert=mysql_query($links) or die(mysql_error());

Your second method should work, but it's dependent on what your form
looks like and how your table was created. You obviously have a key set
for this column and you're trying to insert the same value twice, which
makes an error.
Show us what your form looks like, not the whole thing, just for the

Re: [PHP] Insert an array into MySQL
oops, sorry about the other post (I've got a baby that likes the
keyboard)...
Hi,
This is the form, which I had doubts about, but it seemed to put things into
the array correctly when I tested it by printing it out.
I can't see how, it will print
key=0
value=index.html
key=1
value=about.html
key=2
value=whats_new.html
when I test it and then have a duplicate key. It's saying that I have 2
$pagetype[0] correct? Anyhow, here's the form...
INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=pagetype[] VALUE='index.html'Home Page br
INPUT TYPE=checkbox NAME=pagetype[] VALUE='about.html'About Page br
INPUT TYPE=checkbox NAME=pagetype[] VALUE='whats_new.html'What's New
Pagebr
INPUT TYPE=checkbox NAME=pagetype[] VALUE='contact.html'Contact Pagebr
INPUT TYPE=checkbox NAME=pagetype[] VALUE='favorite_links.html'Favorite
Links br
The CREATE TABLE is this:
I define the table name from user input.
$query_links=CREATE TABLE $username_links (id INT(4) not null, links
VARCHAR(20) not null, UNIQUE (id));
if(mysql_query($query_links,$connection)){
echo Links table created!br;
}else{
echo no links table madeBR;
}

Re: [PHP] php in a layer trouble
Yep, you guys are right! Thanks for the help Robert Justin French [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... I don't believe there is such a problem, because DIV? echo foo; ?/DIV will get replaced with DIVfoo/DIV by the PHP parser. Thus by the time the content gets to the browser, it ISN'T PHP anymore -- it's HTML, or text. What you should do is view the source of your processed page, to ensure that your HTML around the problem area is valid, and correctly parsed. You may even want to run a HTML validator over it. Remember, once the page hits the browser, the code is the RESULT of the PHP code, not the php code itself, thus, PHP code that produces correctly formatted HTML should not break any page. PHP code that creates poorly formatted or invalid HTML will break a page, just as if you did it yourself with a text editor on a raw HTML page. Good luck.
