Why not just echo the ID var separately? Less confusing with the escaped
quotes and all. If you're not getting an ID var, it might be because you
didn't use the array quotes ($row['member_id']) as Larry mentioned.
Also be aware:
"If setcookie() successfully runs, it will return TRUE. This does not
indicate whether the user accepted the cookie."

Not hard at all. However, when trying to identify a problem, it is much
easier to try to isolate it. Forget the session, and see if you can set a
cookie:
<? header('Set-Cookie: foo=bar'); ?>
Try to read it on another page:
<? echo $_COOKIE['foo']; ?>
If that works, slowly modify it until it is identical to the code in
question, testing after each step.
Also, make sure the URL you are spcifying in the Location header is an
absolute URL. And, if you are on IIS, the Location header (and response
status code change) might be what is causing the problem, as IIS has a
known bug related to this.
Hope that helps.

This is a very good suggestion, although your example might be confusing
to some people due to all of the quote escaping. Basically, Larry is
suggesting that you make your code appear in the browser with each of the
function parameters evaluated:
myfunc(foo, 1 + 2);
Your code may have:
myfunc($var1, $var2 + $var3);
So you might try this for debugging:
echo "myfunc($var1, $var2 + $var3);";
If this looks right, you can take it a step further to reveal the
arithmetic:
echo "myfunc($var1, " . $var2 + $var3 . ');';
Hope that helps.

Hi all, and thanks for all your kind hel.
I found the problem although I don't know what was causing it. I simply
moved the setcookie() function to another page (standalone to say) and it
worked perfectly... my "Cookies" folder started to show/delete the cookie on
each request, and also the site could make use of it with no problem. Why
you ask? I don't know. I remember reading a long time ago that in some cases
the code was read by the server from the bottom up in some case, but I don't
know if this is the case... There was NOTHING that altered the setcookie()
function above it.

Just give it a default value. Try this example:
<?
function myfunc($foo = 'bar')
{
echo "$foo\n";
}
myfunc('foo');
myfunc();
?>
Hope that helps.

e.g.
function puke ($stuff = "hairball")

echo "puking ".$stuff."\n";

Yes, as it should. You need to only start the session once.
Hope that helps.

Thanks for the reply.
i just found the bug in my code. I had a statement in the second script:
$_SESSION = $array; that obviously, completely replaced everything in
the $_ SESSION buffer.
These little I gotchas can be fun.

Hello
I have a folder full of html pages that I need to extract the content from.
They all have <!-- content start --> and <!--content end --> comment tags
surrounding the content. I need an easy way (not one at a time) to extract
that content and place it in a new template.
Any ideas are appreciated. Im assuming it will have to be some sort of
strpos and substr thing, but I'm not sure how to automate my process
Thanks,
J.

You want to get rid of the comments, or preserve the comments?
If the former, a simple preg_replace() will help. See the documentation
here: http://php.net/preg_replace, http://php.net/pcre.pattern.syntax, and
http://php.net/pcre.pattern.modifiers. You will search for pieces of text
bounded by '<!--' and '-->' that can span multiple lines. You will also
want to set the not-greedy modifier, so you don't clobber things like:
'<!-- comment -->not a comment<!-- comment -->'.
If the latter, you can use the third argument to preg_match_all() to save
above-matching comments strings into an array. See the documentation here:
http://php.net/preg-match-all.

Not sure I understand, but it sounds like you'd want to do something like:
$dir = "yourdir/";
$d = dir( $dir );
while (false !== ($file = $d->read())) {
if( substr( $file, 0, 1 ) == "." ) {
continue;
}
$fp = fopen( $dir . $file, "r" );
$contentArray = split( "<!--[a-z ]-->", fread( $fp, $file, filesize(
$dir . $file ) ) )
//deal with $contentArray here
fclose( $fp );
}
Is that what you had in mind?

Hi,
Small problem, I am asking my users to enter a path for something in a
textbox..
eg:
/home/blah/something
am confused as to how I can see if the entered path has an ending slash, if
it has a end slash:
$hasSlash=1 else $hasSlash=0
then i can carry on with my output...
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,

Do you want code to be handled differently if it's there or do you want it
to be a certain way (e.g. always with trailing slash or never w/ trailing
slash)?
If you want it to always be a certain way, why not grab the last character
of the path, check if it's a slash and then if it's not how you want it to
be, either add the slash or remove it accordingly and then proceed with your
logic.
This will keep your code more precise as you're always acting on a path of a
certain format and you can do your check before that code is executed.
Regards

My question was exactly that...how do I "grab" the last character?

I do it like this:

$template_path .= (substr($template_path,-1) == $sep)? '':$sep;

Not sure I fully understand your problem, but if you are trying to simply
move information from one area of a form to another, without doing a form
post, then you might consider a javascript solution. This will happen
almost instantaneously, since it all occurs on the browser machine.
In order to use PHP, you will need to cause a form post (a submit) to occur
to get the contents of your form elements to the server with the PHP code,
where your code will take the form contents and echo the form html back to
the browser with your data moved to the textarea like you want.
hope this helps,
Warren Vail

Not sure I fully understand your problem, but if you are trying to simply
move information from one area of a form to another, without doing a form
post, then you might consider a javascript solution. This will happen
almost instantaneously, since it all occurs on the browser machine.
In order to use PHP, you will need to cause a form post (a submit) to occur
to get the contents of your form elements to the server with the PHP code,
where your code will take the form contents and echo the form html back to
the browser with your data moved to the textarea like you want.
hope this helps,
Warren Vail

Austin,
We're not here to write scripts for you, I suggest you start by reading the
manual at php.net. After you have a basic idea of how to use PHP, try
looking at a couple of examples online. Use google, and search for "Database
driven websites".
Another option is to use a pre-made shoutbox, again try google.com

If anyone has successfully got php error logging working on a production
website, could you please reply with the steps taken?
I'm using RH7.3, Apache1.3x, PHP4.3x
My php.ini has:
log_errors = On
error_log = /var/log/httpd/php/error_log
However the errorlog is never created.
Thanks for any help.

I was only able to find one reference to targeting a named frame on a
redirection, in the "MySQL Cookbook" by O'Reilly. According to the book,
this should work:
header('Window-target: main');
header('Location: http://localhost/phase1/report.php');
But, alas, it seems to only load up the current frame (which is not main).
I also tried:
header('Window-target: _top');
header('Location: http://localhost/phase1/report.php');
to see if I could get it to wipe out the frameset and get back to the full
window, but it still loaded up in the current frame.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Geoff
