array counter

[dadamssg]

how would i count how many strings are in a certain array? i want to set up a confirm.php script. I have a register script that will email them a welcome message after they register, but i want it to contain a confirmation link with some variables in the url. In my confirm script i want to grab those variables and check for each one if they match what i have in the db and then confirm them. so it would look like this...

 

 

1. query the database based on $_POST['id'] and grab their info

 

2. for each variable i put in the url, match to see if it matches what i have in the db.

 

3. if the first one matches, set an array with a string in it

 

4. continue in the same array for each one

 

5.check if the array has 3 values stored in it

 

6.if it does confirm, otherwise send them to the register page

why not concatonate all the variables together and do a strcmp or something

Is it something like this you're looking for?

 

$info = array(
'foo' => 'bar',
'msg' => 'hello',
);

$url = 'http://example.com/script.php?' . http_build_query($info);

// The URL will be http://example.com/script.php?foo=bar&msg=hello in this case
