Using hidden fields is not less secure than using visible fields - or
session variables which were filled out by end user input.
Hidden fields can be modified but so can any other field and you need
to check that the values you receive are expected and proper before you
process them. There are

I had a similar problem until I took MySQL out of the system's PATH;

Have a look at the man page, it shows you how to use arrays to
accomplish what you're trying to do.

Okay, well a couple of questions. If you don't mind.
Right below is the code I have , and the multiple list
box is filled with values and labels from a table.
So may I ask:

table instead of manual values ?
2-Also - curious to know how people st

I was just told that having an array pulling multiple
selections from a user out of a list box is a bad
practice.
Can this be true ?
I was under the assumption it was perfectly effective.
Thank you,

As I understand, you're trying to check if the passed value is an
integer or not and then check it's value right?
Use the TYPECASTING technique.
example:
$var = (int) $var;
In this case you're converting ur $var to integer before processing it.
Typecasting is a very well known technique in any p

My DBA's preferred authentication method is to set up a UNIX user

I usually just add zero to a string to force a conversion.
eg. $x = '123'; $int = $x + 0;
You might also want to use the is_numeric() function to validate data first?
