Re: [PHP] Comparing of string

2006-01-04 Thread Raz
I would guess that the '&' in $_GET['formCheck'] will cause problems...

Trying your code without the ampersand as in:
$_GET['formCheck'] =
'ZL0X~TT4PQ%0~R0OXPRUHY7E!4~W337J71V4WDDI6$GS9480XP0TNP2I$1YX75S'

It works just fine.

Hi Jeremy,
I tried if ( strcmp( trim($SollKombination), trim($formCheck) ) )

They have the same length, are of the same type and have the same content. Why 
PHP
doesn't recognize them as beeing equal I don't get it.

thanks for your help so far

This is just a shot in the dark, but have you checked the HTML source of 
your test to make sure that some of the characters aren't been parsed as 
HTML entities? That would technically make the strings different, but 
you wouldn't be able to tell with just echoing alone.

Hey JanBro,

Try replacing the if statement you have with this:

if ( strcmp( trim($SollKombination), trim($formCheck) ) ) {
  echo "test";
}

Re: [PHP] Comparing of string

Yep, they are of the same length.
here they are:
$SollKombination
 ZL0X~TT4PQ%0~R0OXPRUHY7E&!4~W337J71V4WDDI6$GS9480XP0TNP2I$1YX75S
$formCheck
 ZL0X~TT4PQ%0~R0OXPRUHY7E&!4~W337J71V4WDDI6$GS9480XP0TNP2I$1YX75S

When creating the string on the form page only visible characters were allowed.
thanks but that's not it.

Hi JanBro:

Quick guess: are the strings the same length?  I've been bitten many
times by string comparisons that appear to be identical but which fail due
to trailing spaces, other "invisible" (i.e., non-printing) characters, and
the like.

Hope this helps.

Jon

[PHP] Comparing of string

Hello List

I've got the following little code:

$formCheck= $_GET['formCheck'];
$SollKombination = $_SESSION['zufall'];

echo "$SollKombination$formCheck";
print gettype($formCheck);
echo "---";
print gettype($SollKombination);


if ($SollKombination == $formCheck){
   echo "test";
}

To give you some background: This code is supposed to check if a user has tried 
to login via my form.

Which gives me the following  output:
