hi

im working with access databases...

so i tried converting the code but im have a little problem...

im probably making a mistake in the functions...

does an1 one know where i screwed up?

 

<?php

$conn = odbc_connect('IC2A207','','');

 

if(!$conn){

  exit("connection failed: " . $conn);

  }

    $sql="SELECT * FROM products";

    $result=odbc_exec($conn,$sql);

    if(!$result){

  exit("error in SQL");

  }

 

if(isset($_GET['productID']))

$ID = $_GET['productID'];

else

$ID = 1; 

 

 

odbc_close($conn);

?>

I didn't read the whole thing, but I strongly suggest you change the following:

 

if(isset($_GET['productID']))

  $ID = $_GET['productID'];

else

  $ID = 1; 

 

to

 

$ID = (int) $_GET['productID'];

$ID = (!$ID) ? 1 : $ID;

the reason is, because ID's are (i'm assuming) integers, BUT! People could do an attack on your server by not using an int in the address query, another way to escape this problem is use mysql_escape_string or mysql_real_escape_string

 

I need to sleep, but that's just a suggestion.
