Graham,
PHP editors is a frequent topic on this list. I would suggest that you have
a look at the archives and see if the answer is there.
BTW, I only use Dreamweaver and don't have any problems.

Thanks (and I'm working on it right now). But what about the textarea way?

Are you sure it's the mail() function that's doing it? I doubt it.

In php.ini:

Btw, magic_quotes_gpc and magic_quotes_runtime are totally
different beasts. You cannot set magic_quotes_gpc at
runtime but may use php.ini as Jason suggests or .htaccess
Before you set it off, be sure you know how it will affect
your SQL queries though.

Hello friends.
I am passing a variable of two word like "communications software" from one
form to the other. The variable passes as communications%20software . This
is okay for some purpose, but not for the hidden text field that I want. The
hidden text field gets the value "communications" only instead of
"communications software".
Is there a way to solve this?
Thanks
Denis

putting quotes in the tag!
compare:

Win NT4.0
Apache 2.0.45
I've searched the archives and google, but haven't been able to quite
find a solution to this problem. I just upgraded from php4.3.1
(pre-release version) to php4.3.2. I am now getting the following two
errors, which I'm sure I've gotten and fixed in the past, but can't
figure out now...
ERROR 1 (An Apache error)
The dynamic link library Secur32.dll could not be found in the
specified path <path listed out here>
I click OK, and get the following php error:
Unknown() Unable to load dynamic library
'c:\winnt\system32\php_imap.dll' The specified module could not be
found.
Secur32.dll is not on my system, and hasn't been in the past.
php_imap.dll was copied to c\winnt\system32
php extension dir is c:\winnt\system32 (tried it with
c:\php\extensions as well).
My apologies - I can't imagine this is a new problem, and I'm sure
many others have found and solved it. I just can't seem to find it
logged anywhere.

you can you the Mysql MAX function, I believe
Select Max(ID) from Table;
Also, you may want to look at PHP's mysql_insert_id(), (if you are trying to
find the id number after an insert (if that's what you want)).

echo "<A HREF=\"step5.php?seat=$seat[$i]\">$seat[$i]</A><BR>";
endfor;
[/end code]
Now - all of that works perfect and it displays seperate lines with links
to each $seat in the browser....even when I click on the link and goto step
5, it "seems" as though it is working correctly...
[code page=step5.php]
session_start ();
$_SESSION['seat'] = $_REQUEST['seat'];
echo "$_SESSION[seat]";
[/end code]
My question is - is my session working correctly? am I doing what I need to
be doing in order to keep the seats secure so that noone can just type the
seat number in the location bar and get to register their seat?
The reson I ask this is because the only way I know to test sessions is to
close out my browser completely, reopen it and try going to the page I am
testing...HOWEVER, when I do that in this situation, I am still allowed to
change the actual seat number in my location bar....this is what I do NOT
want...
I have read and read and read online and every place I have looked says the
same stuff that the way I have it above should be secure, but apparently it
is not...
TIA,
Jay

I have a form called feedback which has a hidden field as follows :
<?php
Print"<input type=\"text\" name=\"SubCategoryName\"
value=\"$SubCategoryName\">";
?>
I send this hidden field as a variable in form2 which sends an email with
the following code :
<?php
// Build up email header fields
$mailFrom = $SenderName;
$mailTo = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
$mailSubject = "Message form mydomain.com";
$link="Please follow this link
"."http://www.mydomain.com/findbymember.php?SubCategoryName=".$SubCategoryNa
me;
$Message="$SenderName had searched for '$SubCategoryName'. His/her details
are as follows : "."\n"."Telephone number : ".$SenderTelNumber."\n";
$Message=$Message."Mobile number : ".$SenderMobNumber."\n"."Email address :
".$SenderEmailAddress."\n";
$Message=$Message."Address : ".$SenderAddress;
// Send email to member company
mail($mailTo, $mailSubject, $Message,$link);
?>
When my variable in form 1 is "Large Format Print", the mail that arrives is
as follows :
Please follow this
linkhttp://www.findusnow.com/findbymember.php?SubCategoryName=Large Format
Print
Jack had searched for 'Large Format Print'. His/her details are as follows :
Telephone number : 454588445
Email address : 989855564
Address : some address1, some home, some street, some city
As you can see the link does not show the full variable at the end and shows
only the word "large" instead of "large Format Print"
can any of you help?
Thanks

For example:
$a = 'a b c';
print $a; // a b c
print urlencode($a); // a+b+c
So, you want to urlencode your url (the query string).

Hi again guys :)
I am having problems with this little email user script for my website. I
have set this script here to run with flash outputing the information. When
i run the script in the browser i grt this error
"Warning: Failed to Receive in C:\apache\htdocs\innovat\forum\mailuser.php
on line 18"
I aint any php expert just some simple stuff i know.
You can copy the code and test it just change the email information.
cheers for any help guys.
<?
$username = "djd";// set these two so that we do not need flash to output
the information
$users_email="[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
$ToEmail = "$users_email";
$date = date("m/d/Y H:i:s");
$ToName = "$username";// out put from flash
$ToSubject = "Email from mywebsite.co.uk";
$email = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
$msg = "Type whatever here";
$EmailBody = "Sent By: $username\n\nMessage Sent:\n$msg\n\n";
$EmailFooter="\nSent on\n Date/Time: $date";
$Message = $EmailBody.$EmailFooter;
mail($ToName." <".$ToEmail.">",$ToSubject, $Message, "From: ".$username."
<".$email.">");// line 18
print "retval=1&$ToEmail&ToSubject&$Message&$username&$email";// This just
returns output to show all variables have been passed ok.

This does have to do with PHP, but bear with me.
We're using a Flash movie, which calls various PHP scripts to authenticate
users & retrieve news articles, to display a daily business digest. As
Flash's printing capabilities are pathetic, we use JavaScript to popup a
chromeless window in which runs print_news.php. (This is a small window,
with selection, resizing, etc. all disabled, and which calls the print
dialog on load; all that is really visible is its "Close" button.)
It won't be too long before some bright spark realizes that our site could
be visited and the URL for print_news.php fed in; that person would then
have free access - not good.
What I planned to do is add authentication to print_news.php, by passing
the user's ckval (obtained when first authenticated by user_logon.php)
back to the browser in a session var. That does not work, as Flash
apparently gobbles the cookie.
The apparent alternative is to call an intermediate script from Flash,
passing the ckval, and having that script set the session and then redirect
to print_news.php, using the header( Location: ... ). The problem is that
opens in the same window, and I need a new one.
I obviously can't pass ckval in the URL, and I don't have any way, that I
know of, to fake a <form> POST.
Suggestions or nudges in the right direction will be appreciated.

Hi,
I have a site running on a shared server (and as such, I have no access to
the php.ini file) that I'd like to be able to change the default include
path. I've done this before using the .htaccess file and the following
command:
php_value include_path ".:/path/to/web/"
However, on this particular server that command produces an error 500 on
all PHP files with the above command in the .htaccess file. Is there
another way that I can change the default include path?
The server is running FreeBSD 4.4 and PHP 4.3.2RC4
Thanks
