Determine Contents Of Listbox
How can I determine the values of a listbox, both unselected or
selected after submitting the form:
Code:
<select name="sel1" size="10" multiple="multiple">
<? PHP code populates listbox ?>
</select>
Do I have to use Javascript to determine the contents, like in the
pseudo code Javscript below. But how would you pass the Javascript
return value to PHP?
Code:
function listBoxContents(sel1)
{
var selLength1 = sel1.length;
var valuesPresent1 = new Array(sel1.length-1);
var i;
for(i=0; i<=selLength1-1; i++)
{
valuesPresent1[i]=sel1.options[i].valueOf();
}
return valuesPresent1;
}

Listbox Problem
I am using two listboxes with multiple selection. I have moved the contents from the first list box to the second list box. But I am not able to get the value from the second list box.
Listbox And Its Selection
im trying to create a webpage using mysql and php. im using the below code to populate a listbox with playernames held in my database. once i select a name; im trying to make the page gather the relevant information from that users details to be displayed on the same page. for example if i select "MoFish" from the listbox, i want it to echo all MoFish's details in the page such as his: "age" "height" "weight" if i select "Berty" i want it to echo bertys details. how can i acheive this? Code:
Retaining Value In Listbox Array
i have designed an application that is a dynamic submission form. i have text fields and listboxes. now i am able to retain the values of the listboxes when i populate the listbox "manually"(single listbox) like this... <select name="title"> <option value="1"<?php if ($_POST['title'] == Ƈ') { echo 'selected="selected"' } ?>></option> <option value="Mr"<?php if ($_POST['title'] == 'Mr') { echo 'selected="selected"' } ?>>Mr</option> <option value="Mrs"<?php if ($_POST['title'] == 'Mrs') { echo 'selected="selected"' } ?>>Mrs</option> <option value="Mstr"<?php if ($_POST['title'] == 'Ms') { echo 'selected="selected"' } ?>>Ms</option> </select> Now this works flawlessly for example if the firstname text box is left blank and the user clicks "send" then validation occurs and the value in the "title" listbox is maintained and user is prompted to fix the error. However this does not work when i use a listbox that is dynamically generated in an array. <select name="title[]" //note title[] = an array of titles within the form <option value="1"<?php if ($_POST['title'] == Ƈ') { echo 'selected="selected"' } ?>></option> <option value="Mr"<?php if ($_POST['title'] == 'Mr') { echo 'selected="selected"' } ?>>Mr</option> <option value="Mrs"<?php if ($_POST['title'] == 'Mrs') { echo 'selected="selected"' } ?>>Mrs</option> <option value="Mstr"<?php if ($_POST['title'] == 'Ms') { echo 'selected="selected"' } ?>>Ms</option> </select> But my text boxes work(retain value on POST in the case there is invalid input on the form) <input name="fname[]" type="text" value="<?php echo $firstname;?>"/> i have tried a couple of scenarios and in my debugging i see that if i chose the "Mr" option and 'echo' to see if it is POST'ed, it is. However when the form reloads it reverts to the default empty value of the listbox? thought maybe something like //code above <option value="Mr"<?php if ($_POST['title'][$count] == Ƈ') { echo 'selected="selected"' } ?>></option> //code below But nothing...So how to retain the value of the listbox?

How To Determine Whether GD Is Installed?
I am trying to install a captcha form that required those graphic libraries. I got the error message "call to undefined function" which according to the authors of the form suggests that GD is not probably installed or enabled. I created the usual <?phpinfo()?> report and the only part GD is mentioned is in the Configure Command section: ./configure'...'--with-gd=shared' '--enable-gd-native-ttf' '--without-gdbm' '--with-gettext' '--with-ncurses=shared' '--with-gmp' '--with-iconv' Can you tell whether GD is installed from that? If I remember correctly, GD should have its own section within the PHP info report - but its not there. Since my host isn't very responsive to my requests, I was thinking that I should try installing GD myself. Server is running Apache/2.0.52 (CentOS). Anyone aware of any tutorials that might help preventing me from screwing up things?
How To Determine Current URL In PHP?
Is there a way that I can determine the current url/location (like the 'location' variable in javascript)? For example, if I'm at http://mysite.com/index.php, is there perhaps a fixed variable containing 'http://mysite.com/index.php' already available, or is there a function available to retrieve it? I want to use this to log certain hits on my site, so it would be nice to have a way to do it all in one page rather than integrating information sent with the help of javascript from another page.

Determine The Type Of A File (gif Or Jpg)
I've written a very basic CMS using a PHP database thing (no MySQL). It lets me update a list of 5 descriptive texts, each relating to an image which is shown next to the text. At the moment, my HTML looks like this (simplified): <tr><td><img src="images/Picture1.gif"></td></tr> <tr><td><img src="images/Picture2.jpg"></td></tr> <tr><td><img src="images/Picture3.jpg"></td></tr> <tr><td><img src="images/Picture4.gif"></td></tr> <tr><td><img src="images/Picture5.gif"></td></tr> which is very inelegant as I have to repeat all the information. I've already written the script to create the 5 table rows dynamically, using a "for" loop with the counting variable $i, so that I can simply write one row and substitute the Picture number with the variable: PHP Code:

How To Determine Which Button Was Pressed On <form>
I am having a heck of a time trying to understand how to use graphical buttons in my PHP scripts to interpret user selections. A great example is the list of buttons across the top of this forum (user cp, register, calendar, etc.). Now, I know how to create an <a href><img></a> graphical link and an <input type="image"...> button element for a form, but what I cannot for the life of me figure out is how to tell on a subsequent POST of my form which, of many graphical buttons, was pressed. PHP Code:
Uploading .png And Can't Determine File Type?
I'm currently creating a page where users can upload images and the server will save them to their respective places, but I've run into a snag of sorts. I currently check to make sure that the file being uploaded is an Image file, but only jpg/gif/png. If it is not one of those three, it rejects the upload. If it is, it will save the file to the server. Now my problem is that when a PNG is uploaded, there's no filetype associated with it. If I check the jpg and gif, I'll get image/jpg and image/gif respectively, but when I check the png, I get nothing, there's nothing returned. Does anyone have any suggestions or maybe seen this before? Also, I don't want to go and allow any image type to be uploaded. I'd really prefer to allow only those three types.

Determine Image Information On Image Stored In MySQL BLOB
I store images in my DB as BLOB. When I want to place them in an html table, I want to determine the width of the image in order to asign the correct width to the column inside table. For JPEGs this is working fine, this is my code: $image = @imagecreatefromstring($r["foto"]); return @imagesx($image); where $r["foto"] is the field selected from the db which contains the image. For GIFs however, its getting really on my nerves !! I know imagecreatefromstring is not supported in gd2 and I tried several thinks. None of them worked ! : - $temp = tmpfile(); list($width, $height, $type, $attr) = getimagesize($temp); echo $attr; gives me :Warning: getimagesize: Unable to open 'Resource id #6' for reading - $handle = fopen("/tmp/tmp.dat", "w+"); fwrite($handle, $r["foto"]); list($width, $height, $type, $attr) = getimagesize($handle); echo $attr; gives me : Warning: getimagesize: Unable to open 'Resource id #6' for reading - Doing this with imagecreatefromgif($temp); wont work either ! Can somebody help me out please? by telling me what I'm doing wrong or what I should do.

Getting And Using Contents In A Folder
I want to make a photogallery/slideshow with PHP... The 'gallery/slideshow' would show up inside a new window. basically, I just want links with possibility to go: - forward - back - to the very beginning - to the very end - away (close the window) Can I use PHP to determine the contents of the folder with the pictures and then use variables to determine which photo to show, and what URL's should be generates for the arrows? So each folder with a series of photographs would have one PHP file and the pictures themselves in them (it's not a problem to rename them). Should be simple enough, but I'm just starting out with PHP, and I'd like to have something working as soon as possible... the website I'm working on is about to launch soon (my first 'commercial' web project :) ), and this is about the only thing left that I still have to sort out how to do...
