[How to check an array for a matching string and return true - Newbie help]

kney's reply is syntactically correct, but a more appropriate way will be this:-

 

$titles = array('Home', 'About Us', 'Registration', 'Sitemap', 'Contact Us', 'Useful Links', 'Feedback');

if (in_array($this->getTitle(), $titles))
{
    $this->publicSite() = true;
}

else
{
    $this->publicSite() = false;
}

 

Thanks ..

I didn't know how to use arrays anymore, that's why the 'crappy' reply

[How to check an array for a matching string and return true - Newbie help]

try this

 

public function publicSite() {
	if ($this->getTitle()== 'Home' || $this->getTitle()== 'About Us'|| $this->getTitle()=='Registration' || $this->getTitle()== 'Sitemap' || $this->getTitle()=='Contact Us' ||$this->getTitle()== 'Useful Links' || $this->getTitle()=='Feedback') {
		return true;
	}
	return false;
}

[Check for files]

Hi,

 

Here's my problem:

 

The first 5 or 10 tries it should say "file not found".

After the 10th try it should automatically say "file found".

BUT it should also time out after like 50 tries and it hasn't found the file.

But i don't know how to do this..

 

I currently have this code:

 

<?php

function respond_xml($status, $message)
{
    $out = new XMLWriter();
    $out->openURI("php://output");
    $out->setIndent(true);

    $out->startDocument("1.0", "ISO-8859-1");

    $out->startElement("statuscheck");
    $out->writeElement("status", $status);
    $out->writeElement("message", $message);
    $out->endElement();

    $out->endDocument();
    
    $out->flush();
}

function main()
{
    header("Content-type: text/xml");

    if (!isset($_GET["file"]))
        respond_xml("ERROR", "File parameter missing");
    else if (file_exists($_GET["file"]))
            respond_xml("OK", "File exists");
    else
           respond_xml("NOT OK", "File does not exist");
}

main();

?>

 

This code works and gives a correct XML response when you type in for example "http://localhost:8080/php/script.php?file=test" it's says:

<statuscheck>
<status>NOT OK</status>
<message>File does not exist</message>
</statuscheck>

 

Now, I need it to be able to check it every 5 seconds so i've use this code

header("Refresh: 5; URL=http://localhost:8080/php/script.php?file=test");

nobody can figure this out?

[Facebook Like Button checking if someone has liked certain page]

Just an example

You have certain newsposts in ur database with fields (newsID, date, title, content).

You will also have to have a table with the preferences (so wether you like something or not).. with fields (preferenceID, userID, newsID, like)

The standard value for like = 0..

whenever you press a like button it remembers the user who clicked it, the post itself and changes like to 1.. etc

 

i hope that helps

[how to pass variable to other page]

yep it's just 

 

<?php
// Gotta put this on top of every page btw
session_start();
?>
<form action="startregprocess.php" method="post">
username:<input type="text" name="username">
telephone<input type="text" name="telephone"
<input type="submit" name="submit">
</form>
<?php
srand ((double) microtime( )*1000000);
$random_number = rand( );
echo $random_number;

// just use the new variable on the other page
$_SESSION["randomnumber"] = $random_number;
?>

 

and do this on the other page to get it 

 

<?php
session_start();

echo $_SESSION["randomnumber"];
?>
