[snip] I want to do a server side trap Seems people rely more on javascript these days. [/snip] There is a reason for that. It is in the first chapter of the popular book Server Side is From Mars, Client Side is From Venus. Make no mistake, people often confuse the two. You, being the smart programmer that you are, know that PHP is a server-side language and JavaScript (often known as ECMAScript 290) is a client-side language. You must be in touch with both sides to become an effective programmer in today's world. Other languages are also mentioned. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Subject: [PHP] Code help on a multi select list
I want to do a server side trap if a user selects more
from a mult select list then allowed. Just unsure and
didn't find any examples. Seems people rely more on
javascript these days.
So here is how I grab the array:
if ( is_array( $_REQUEST['LurkerIndustry'] ) ) { $_SESSION['l_industry']
= array_unique( array_merge( $_SESSION['l_industry'],
$_REQUEST['LurkerIndustry'] ) ); }
here is my somewhat hazy notion:
if
( is_array( $_REQUEST['LurkerIndustry'] ) ) { $_SESSION['l_industry'] =
array_unique( if $l_industry 5
( Here I'm guess I need to redirect back to page
with and error message)
else
array_merge( $_SESSION['l_industry'], $_REQUEST['LurkerIndustry'] ) );
}

RE: [PHP] Code help on a multi select list
It is not my intention to start a discussion on this, however, some things, as you surely know, are better handled with javascript. If you turn it the way you say now, I can follow your idea and thus you are correct. It has te be very closed it seems.

Stuart Precisely... you can't rely on the the client to do your checking. You need to check from the server side to make sure no one's going to spoof your code. With that in mind, you mind want to implement both client-side and server-side checking. That way, it gives your legitimate users a more user-friendly approach, while still ensuring from the server-side that no one's going to spoof your form. -- Regards, Ben Ramsey http://benramsey.com --- Atlanta PHP - http://www.atlphp.org/ The Southeast's premier PHP community. --- -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] Code help - file parse?
Hi,
Parsing HTML is not the easiest thing to do and the best HTML parsers
are in perl, you will be better of writing the page in PHP {unless you
know the exact location (say file offset) where your date can be found }

This way visitors to the main html page can see the last time the database

rather leave it html. Anyone have code to parse and replace based on a
hidden tag?
Thanks

Anyone have code to parse and replace based on a hidden tag? Thanks It can be as simple as opening the file, reading the file, looking for the hidden tag with a regular expression while writing to a temp file line by line, and if all that happens with no errors, replacing the html file with the temp file. Simple, just a few steps involved, eh? Me thinks is would be easier to rename the file from a html extension to a php oneleaving all content as isjust renameand using one little sniplet of php to output the date in the document. -- By-Tor.com It's all about the Rush http://www.by-tor.com -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
