| | MySQL is great, especially for storing large amounts of data such as users, event logs, and tables for forms or CMS systems. There is one big problem though that faces PHP/MySQL developers: MySQL injection. Hackers usually try something like a username and password of ' a='a'. This is a MySQLer's … |

| | Re: Parse error Simply close the last else statement: [code=php] }else{ echo @$_REQUEST['code'].' Codigos falso'; } [/code] Also, I would blank out your mysql password. A simple googling could reveal the mysql host you use and allow someone to edit your mysql databases. |
| | Hello, I am currently having a problem with .htaccess. I am trying to use mod_rewrite to rewrite: [url]http://www.example.com/test/test?word=test[/url] to [url]http://www.example.com/test/test.php?word=test[/url]. The only problem is the GET vars can have different names. So another example url could be [url]http://www.example.com/test/test?test=true&form=1[/url] or even [url]http://www.example.com/test/test?search=Google&type=Web[/url] etc. For this I wrote a simple PHP script … |

| | If you don't have scripting abilities you may consider an external Javascript file. Take this example: header.js: [code=JavaScript] function header() { document.write("MySite <a href='index.html'>Home</a> <a href='about.html'>About</a> etc. "); //Put the header code here //Note when placing the header code, make sure you replace " (Double Quotes) with /" (Slash and … |

| | Re: where to begin I would suggest first learning CSS. It has become a web standard for styling HTML text, images, etc. Once you have a [B]very[/B] good understanding of CSS (It's pretty important to know it!!!), I would suggest going on to JavaScript. If you are creating forms you will want to have …  |
| | Hello, I have a question about PHP. I realized that you can use the POST variable to get data from a form submitted with the type post, but does the order of the fields matter.
