[Firefox Anchor Tags Place Focus On Form Feilds?]

Please try submitting both these forms without entering any data:

u: phpfreaks p: phpfreaks

The error messages contain anchor tags to put focus on the feilds.  The first script works in IE & Firefox.  The second script only works in IE.

 

Thots?

 

Thank you.

[return:?]

i thot it was the equivalent of return false; but i could not find any documentation stating the fact...tho i hav recently found instances where they behave differently...u r right...return false; is best.

How does 'return;' differ from 'return false;' or return true;'?

 

THANKS!!!

[MySQL Relationship Diagramn?]

Is there a way in phpmyadmin or is there some kind of plugin that will display a relationship diagram of my db?

 

Thanks.

[validation won't trigger...any ideas?]

great tips...i'll implement once i figure out why the checkboxes wont validate.

[Checkbox Array Function]

First, i did not need to pass the form name to any of my other validation functions, but is it necessary when dealing with checkbox arrays?

 

Second, I tried 2 different approaches to figuring out if any checkboxes in the array are checked, but none of them work.

                                function check_req(form, field, alerttext)
                                {
                                        /*count_checked=0;

                                        for(i=1; i<field.length;i++)
                                        {
                                                if(field.checked==true)
                                                {
                                                        count_checked++;
                                                }
                                        }

                                        if(count_checked==0)*/
                                        if(form.field.checked==false)
                                        {
                                                alert(alerttext);

                                                return false;
                                        }
                                }

[submitting form to multiple pages]

I think CURL could be used as well.

[variable variables?]

OK...i altered your suggestion a bit, but I wanted to ask if there were advantages to using strcasecmp() (or any other differences in yr code) that i'm not aware of?

 

foreach($_POST as $key => $postvar)
{
     #Var name start with 'job'?
     if(substr($key,0,2)=='job')
     {
           #Var name end with 'quest'?
           if(substr($key,-5)=='quest)
           {
                #Cycle thru checkbox array.
                foreach($postvar as $quest)
                {
                      echo "$quest<br />";
                 }
            }
     }
}

 

THANKS AGAIN!  You really got my mind going!  I WAS STUCK!!!

[variable variables?]

yes, i believe that is the approach i was looking for...i will try it tomorrow..thx

[variable variables?]

i am dynamically creating a list of checkboxes for each job title in a db.

 

the checkbox array names are something like 'job2quest[]' & the 'job5quest[]'...

 

since i dont necessarily kno which jobs will appear, i dont want to hardcode the variables when the form is submitted.

 

is there a way to pick apart post variable names, so the script can find the checkbox arrays?

 

And/or is there a way to loop thru them?  (like if they could be named job[]quest[])

 

thank you!!!

[Foreach Required for $_POST Array?]

THATS AWESOME!!!  It worked!

 

I couldn't even find multi-dimensional $_POST or superglobal arrays mentioned in the manual.

[Foreach Required for $_POST Array?]

If i named checkboxes "check[]", is there a way to quickly get the value of check[1]?

 

I tried $_POST[check[1]] & it didnt work.

 

THANK YOU!

[Music Categories & Sub-Categories]

I am creating a music database.  Each album will have a category and MAY have a sub-category.

 

I'm thinking of making ONE category table with feilds:

id, name, parent_id

 

If it's a sub-category, the parent_id will be the id of the category in the same table.

 

Does this sound right or is there a better way?

 

THANK YOU!

[Error When Creating Array: Parse error: parse error, expecting `')'']

whenever i upload pages, they automatically reference some index page i do not have access to...the url is something like:

http://www.vsd.org/AboutUs/index.php/signup2_-_projects.php

 

i cant imagine wut code in that index file could trigger such an error in my page...

 

i cleaned up my code as suggested, but i am getting the same error.

 

thanks again.

[Error When Creating Array: Parse error: parse error, expecting `')'']
