How Do I Control Text Box Pre-Filled Entries
Can someone tell me how to control whether or not a text box is automatically pre-filled. In other words, on some web sites, when you visit them, the username and password automatically fills itself. But on other web sites you have to fill in the username and password each time you visit them.
There is one web site, Yahoo! dot com, where the username and password text boxes are never pre-filled. I have to type in my username and password for Yahoo! dot com each time I restart my browser. It didn't used to be that way. Yahoo!'s web site used to automatically pre-fill the username and password text boxes.
The web site that I'm working on uses cookies. I suppose that I could put a cookie $Name variable in a text box - but there may be a better way of doing it, though.

Keep Control While Passing Form Entries
I have the following code in an intermediate file, separate.php, passing values from a form to a receiving file: form -> separate.php file -> vendor's receiving file <?php $url="https://receivingsite.com/receive.jsp?"; foreach($_POST as $key => $value){ $url .="$key=" . urlencode($value) . "&";} header ("Location: $url");?> I place other code (all working), ahead of the code in question. Then, the portion of the other code that sends an email to me containing the values from the form, still does that. The portion of the other code that opens another page, does not open it any more. Instead, a nuisance (to me) confirmation page generated by the vendor's receiving file opens instead of the page I specified in my other code. This is the part of the other code that does not open any more: print "<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL=http://mywebsite.com/next.htm">"; I have to send to their receiving file with the confirmation page because the regular one they designed for this purpose (no confirmation page) requires that the form's redirect field be included, and that is a problem to me (not to most of their customers) because I have two buttons in the form going to two different pages, instead of one button like all their other customers would have. The receiving file (confirmation page) that I have to send to was designed with a different use in mind, but I have to send to it because the regular one must receive a form field that I do not want to include. So it seems that I need to replace header ("Location: $url"); with something else, or make some other change or addition.
Populate MySQL With Multiple Text Box Entries
I have about 300 rows of mysql data which I have chosen to diplay with a text box at the end of each row, that is available for adding comments. I would like to be able to add comments to entries and then have an update scripte that would take the text box, named "MC" and place the data in its row identified by a hidden field which would corrrespond to the Primary Key of the MySQL Database. I've done something similar using check box arrays, ie. Checkbox name="MC[]" My question is whether I can write a script that would test for a value in the corresponding text box, and update the MySQL data accordingly. I have also provided in my display script that if the MC column is already populated in MySQL it will not display in the form.
Already Filled In Form
i ve made this form in html and i want it to already be filled in with data from the database if it already exists PHP Code:
Help W/ Zero Filled Numbers (strings....)
I need to be able to loop through a set of filenames (pictures), and if they exist, display the files. No problem with that so far, only that now, the filename system has changed (we went from 100 pics per item to 999)... I can't get to some of them. pictures are named like this : Lcal0113_z001.jpg to Lcal0113_z999.jpg (not always all of them are there). Now, if I simply try to loop through the 999 Nr's , it won't work for all of those that are below 100 (because of the "zeroes" that stand in front, no surprise...) (Lcal0113_z070.jpg for example won't show up) this is my previous code :
Saving A Filled PDF Form
I am trying to build some functionality where a user can fill out an editable PDF form and send it to my site. I realize I can just have them save and upload/email it, but if I could pull the fields out of the pdf and insert them into a database, I would really prefer that. I saw some ways to do this, but all were expensive commercial solutions which I can't afford. Important points are storage space, ease of use and security. I really want the forms to be as secure as possible when submitted. I also think having to save and upload the pdf might be too difficult/too much work for some users and I want it to go as easily as possible. Another idea I had was to have a link inside the pdf, which would save the form and send the user to the upload page, with the path already entered into the upload box? not sure how to even begin going about that though. I did some searching on the forum and it seems like it's not as common a problem as I thought. Most php/pdf stuff seems to be just creating pdfs dynamically.
How Could I Get The Form Fields Filled From A Database?
One idea I have is to do a redirect, but it doesn't quite work because it ends to an infinite loop cause the page is redirecting to itself: header("Location: " . $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] . "?field1=something&field2=something else"); That would bee neet. I just would create a string from the contents I receive from the db and just redirect, but as I said, it doesn't work easily. You have to use the apache rewrite, but I didn't quite get it. Another solution is to check if the request is not empty for the particular field.
$_POST Empty, $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA Filled
We receive a POST message being a multipart/mixed type. The $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA shows it perfectly. However, I expected the $_POST to be filled as well, which is empty. We're using php 4.3.3.
Pressing Browser Back Button - Form Filled Data Disappeared
When filling out a web form on a php page that is submitted to a search which lists the results based on the criteria provided (in the form), all works fine and as expected. However, when I press the back button to amend the form all of the search criteria data has gone and I have to fill it all out again if I want to do a similar search which is frustrating. (This does not actually happen in Firefox browser but most of my users will be using IE). How can I prevent this from happening? Previously I made a post about avoiding "Page has expired" and the conclusion I came to for that was not to use a "POST" which did the trick. But now I want to retain the data I input?
Tab Control
Anyone have code for a PHP based tab control for site navigation?
Control Query
I am trying to work on this url query control (people messing around with the query on the address bar) that i can to my script. Baiscly i have 3 choice that are linked from the web page. So you have file.php?choice=1, file.php?choice=2 and file.php?choice=3. I have managed to find a way were if choice="" so if some one messed around and removed the number then it would perform a default action such as "$choice =1". How can i redirect the user if any other option (obviously an incorrect one is used). Example file.php?choice=12 which doesnt exist. Id like it to go to a default like the case above. I had an attempt at it but i didnt work. Does any one know a way around it?

Ad Control Through Script
I would appreciate your advice on the following problem: Situation-Running Website through Drupal CMS connecting to a Mysql database on another server. Noticed a slight time lag in page loading possibly due to database being on another server, running CMS and using shared hosting. Objective-Want to serve two different ads and minimize any extra time lag in page loading or ad serving. Option 1(if possible)-Creating a small php or javascript, something like this: if ip="a.a.a.a" serve ad <a href>Matching</a> if ip is not equal to "a.a.a.a." serve ad <a href>Not Matching</a> Option 2-use some pre-built script like phpadsnew which would require using another database for ad serving. Phpadsnew has some good options for targeting but I am concerned if this may slow the pages and ads especially for users not having high speed internet access. Please provide your opinion and if possible an example of option 1 or should I just go with option 2.
How To Get Rid Of Control M Character
I'm using PHP code to develop a www interface to let users edit text files stored on a Solaris UX server. Users are using Windows based WWW browser access this web site. Once they have selected the file they want to edit, it's presented in a text window (form) so thay can modify the file. The submit button passes the contents of the field to a variable and it is saved to disc. From the WWW interface everything seems OK, but when I look to the file, each line has a "^M" (control-M) at the end. This makes the files bigger and it can cause problem in a near future because these files have to be processed by shell scripts to populate a mySQL DB. Someone has seen that before and what was the solution.

While() Control Structure
I'm trying to insert a unique UserID into my database.

But I'm having a heck of a time getting it to work. I had it working at one point for a single name, but it wouldn't deal with duplicate names, I'm pretty mixed up as to why it doesn't work now. The code:

Duplicate SQL Entries
I have a buddy system on my site and I have found that duplicate buddies can be added into the database. Here how I have this set up: user 1 want to add user 2 as a buddy. user 1 goes to user 2's page and clicks "add as buddy" A PM goes to user 2 and asks him if he accepts or declines if user 2 clicks accept a php script is run Problem: This script need to detect if that buddy already exists, if so do nothing or overwrite the original. Right now it just adds the entry again. I am using a very simple table: UID BID --------- 1 | 2 This would mean user id 1 has a buddy with a buddy id 2 Here is the non-functional code: $query = mysql_query("UPDATE buddies SET uid='$uid', bid='$bid' WHERE uid='$uid' && bid='$bid'"); print "Buddy Has been overwritten"; //would prefer it not do anything at all if entry exists if ($query == 0) { // No records updated, so add it $query = mysql_query("INSERT INTO buddies (uid, bid) VALUES ('$uid', '$bid')"); print "Buddy Added";}

What do I have to do, to expand the select list (resp. the table behind)?

Question On Flow Control
I am having some trouble with the execution of IF statements and I wondered if any one could give me a hand in debugging it please. I thought or I assumed that what ever goes inside the IF statement executes only if the IF condition is true. In my case I have a parameter $index passed as value to a popup page, the popup page contains the IF Statements which is supposed to execute depending on the value received from the $index. It is executing but with errors from the other IF statements. What I don’t understand is why is it executing or entering the IF statements when the condition is not true. Here is the code: (Just for information I’ve even tried replacing it with Switch Statement, it is executing well with no errors but I don’t have the image. Which is the best way to do, should I Use IF or SWITCH?

Process Control Problem
I need to process some computation but i do not want the user wait the end of the computation but instead i would send the user a "wait refreshing page". When the computation is finished i would replace the refreshing page with the new page containing the results. So i need 2 processes one that would make the waiting page and one that would do computation and make the results page. I read in the php manual that handling processes within a web server environment could raise problems. Is there a simple and a clear manner to solve this problem?

Help With PHP Process Control Functions
I have written a script that basically sends an email (using sockets). I want this script to be able to run multiple copies of itself so that it doesn't have to wait for one mail sending to finish before starting on the next. I understand that I need to use the PHP pcntl_ family of functions to control the processes, but am not sure where to start. There aren't many helpful articles on the internet about this topic! Any example code or help would be greatly appreciated.
Headers Cache Control
I have finished redeveloping a site, reuploaded it and the client is complaining of not being able to see the new site yet. If they Ctrl + F5 they would see it, but are concerned that if some of their clients dont know its a new site, how shall they see it? I have put the following at the top of the index header("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT"); header("Cache-Control: no-cache"); header("Pragma: no-cache"); Will that override the browser settings?
Version Control System
I am not sure this is in the right section so feel free to move it if you need to. I am looking for a web-based version control system script. Basically, I need to be able to have users check files out so that no one can download a certain file until the person who checked it out submits a new version of it or if the admin sets it as lost. I cannot use SourceForge because my project is not open source. Also, I cannot use Subversion or similar system because I do not want to give anyone SSH/Telnet access. There are companies that offer this service, but cost way too much money for something simple like I need. Does anyone know where I can find such a script? I don't care if it is PHP, Python, CGI, etc as long as it works the way I need it to on my own server.
Passing Control Onto Another Form
I am working with a payment gateway, which sends its response with a specific php page. Lets say response.php, with parameter ?val=data. ie http://abc.com/response.php?val=data. On this php page, I want to perform some processing, but ultimately dont want to display any html form with this page. I need some way to perform my processing on this php page, then immediately redirect to another php to display the next form, with the results. Can anyone advise on how this is achieved? So for example, I want it to then invoke display.php?mode=1&conf=1, which has the formal display with all the results. All this with NO user input.
