Sorry, not sure if the first part of the conversation made it to the list. I will be looking in to Symfony. I'm well versed with ZF and Zend_Db. I'm also somewhat versed with Doctrine and integrating it with ZF. My question isn't whether Doctrine is a part *of* that framework but rather on *what*

[PHP] What determines your use of the type of DB framework/abstract?

Hey All, I'm guessing that the subject probably doesn't fit the question I'm asking here so I'll apologize in advance. Lately I've been getting in to how I can streamline my development after a bad experience with a contract. One of the areas I was looking at is when it would be appropriate to us

[PHP] PHP process 32 v 64 bit virtual memory

Looking for some explanation (and verification) as to why the virtual memory increases by 5 fold (at the minimum) from 32 bit to 64 systems. I'm aware (for the most part) of the int, struct, etc changes from 32 to 64 bit. Results from running `php -r 'sleep(1000);' &` on 32 and 64 bit systems ar

As an alternative to the regular expression approaches already provided by others, you could also use ctype_alnum(): if (ctyp_alnum($_POST['username'])) { //username contains only letters and numbers } else { //username contains characters other than letters and numbers } //if-else Docs:

[PHP] Re:

Thanks Very much I used, preg_match('/[[:punct:]]/', $_POST['username']) !== 0 and it works without errors. The reason I can't just use is_file which I wish I could is because windows doesn't allow question marks or some wierd character. It decides to not allow php to make the file if there are odd

Or... just use: if(preg_match('/^[A-Za-z0-9]+$/', $_POST['username']) !== 0) { // string contains other characters, write the code } You can see this regex in action here: http://regexpal.com/?flags=®ex= ^%5BA-Za-z0-9%5D%2B%24&input=myusername01 If you put anything different of A-Za-z0-9 the re

Re: [PHP] How can I check for characters in a $_POST[] variable?

Use this regex: if(preg_match('/[[:punct:]]/', $_POST['username']) !== 0) { // string contains other characters, write the code } The POSIX class [:punct:] means matches any punctuation and symbols in your string and that includes [!"#$%&'()*+,\-./:;<=>?@[\\\]^_`{|}~] Regards, Igor Escobar *Soft

[PHP] How can I check for characters in a $_POST[] variable?

I have this problem when using php because my computer recognizes the characters "." and ".." as an existing file when I use file_exists. Also I want to check $_POST["username"] for characters other then A-Z a-z and 0-9. If it contains anything other then, I would like to prompt the user but I can'
