[Had a server in my basement....]

I would have already contacted my insurance company already if I was you.

[Had a server in my basement....]

I dont have flood insurance 5 grand down the drain. 

 

There was  a flood? First you said it rained, there is a difference to the man.

I think businesses MAY be eligible for federal assistance if they live or own a business in a county declared a major disaster area by the President.

 

 

I am sure there are many hoops to jump through.

LOL, what a hoot

 

I think they're going to laugh at you from behind their nice, dry stacks of money that you gave to them.

[Stripslashes as a back up?]

Worked great Pikachu... and yes I remembered to turn apache on & off for testing

 

Thanks everyone

[Stripslashes as a back up?]

Thanks everyone, I'll test and come back and mark solved, hopefully.

[Stripslashes as a back up?]

I don't think that's a function that exists

 

so ...

 

if (function_exists(magic_quotes_gpc = on)) {

stripslashes()

mysqli_real_escape_string()

} else  mysqli_real_escape_string()

[Return back on same page after valid user login]

Maybe a session and if for some reason there is no session ... back to the index.php

[Stripslashes as a back up?]

http://php.net/manual/en/function.function-exists.php says "Return TRUE if the given function has been defined" so ...

 

if (function_exists(magic_quotes_gpc)) {

stripslashes()

mysqli_real_escape_string()

} else  mysqli_real_escape_string()

 

 

would be how I would use it?

[Stripslashes as a back up?]

I have a small site and right know for strings I use mysqli_real_escape_string. However when moving me to another server my provider left magic_qoutes on. So strings started adding slashes in code I wrote (but not in wordpress and smf for some reason(?)).

 

I've emailed them and informed then that I wanted the m_qoutes off. This is the second time this has happened in a year and a half.

 

Anyway, would it be bad form to have stripslashes() just before mysqli_real_escape_string as back up?

[PHP captcha without graphics ?]

There is no de facto fool-proof way to stop the baddies - all you can do is through enough shit in their way.

 

 

change enough to some 

[PHP captcha without graphics ?]

You're not going to get captcha without GD, sorry.

 

As a note I saw a web site one time that had a question like "What is the second word in the sentence at the top of the page?" or something like that.

 

I also had a pic of a manual captchua I did (just one) and it worked, the numbers were 4321 on a jpg with some lines through it and if you're a small site that may be all you'll need. But the question above worked very good.

[How to format an echo statement to include a condition]

That works

 

Thanks

[How to format an echo statement to include a condition]

Thanks for the replys

 

This is in a loop and it works

 

$image = FALSE;
if ($board['id'] == 9) {$image = '9999999';}

echo '
</a>
</td>
<td class="info">'.$image.' '.'
<a class="subject" href="', $board['href'], '" name="b', $board['id'], '">', $board['name'], '</a>';

 

However when I take out the $image = FALSE; $image prints in all the loop's results. Why does it do that? Shouldn't $image be empty?

 

Anyway this works and I'll make a switch statement later

if ($board['id'] == 9) {$image = '9999999';} else {$image = FALSE;} and it works fine

[How to format an echo statement to include a condition]

I've been trying to format an echo statement to include a condition but I always have to split it into two or three echo  statements.

 

echo '</a>
</td>
<td class="info">
<a class="subject" href="', $board['href'], '" name="b', $board['id'], '">', $board['name'], '</a>';

 

Say I start with the above I'll then make it this

 

echo '</a>

</td>

<td class="info">';

if (this) {echo 'That';}

echo '<a class="subject" href="', $board['href'], '" name="b', $board['id'], '">', $board['name'], '</a>';

 

How can I include a condition with out extra echo's? I've tried this with and with out brackets and parenthesis and of course it doesn't work.

 

echo '</a>

</td>

<td class="info">'.{if (this) {echo 'That';} }.'

<a class="subject" href="', $board['href'], '" name="b', $board['id'], '">', $board['name'], '</a>';

 

Thanks

[Migrating to IPB]

I like smf but if it has to be it has to be. I belong to Larry Ullman's forum, link it's IPB and I haven't been there in almost a year and at the time I thought the user info and set up sucked. But I just went back and it looks clean and he's changed some things.

I don't think the pictures were there with the post topics and my profile stuff seems easy to navigate this time.

[user's password retrieval]

Reset the users password to something you know and send them that.

 

thorpe that was  really a great and simple solution though I wonder where will I get that password?

 

Sorry, didn't read your 2nd post well

 

To make a new pw I use ...  $pw = substr( md5(uniqid(rand(), true)), 3, 10);

[user's password retrieval]

Once the pw is hashed you can say it's impossible for joe average, AKA people like you and me, to get the pawword out. I know sites that can email you your password when you foregt it, not email you a new password.

 

I would guess they have another table with the password in it, I would also guess they don't put it in the members table.

[Problems Converting WAMP Site From Localhost To Domain]

... I keep getting a lot of undefined function errors that require some code tweaks to eliminate.

 

 

This does seem odd, what kind of code tweaks? Can you give an example?

 

[Problems Converting WAMP Site From Localhost To Domain]

I am already having to change many things in my code for the working site to get it to run as localhost.

 

What are some examples of the kind of stuff you're having to change?
