OsoDupe: I just start coding on php, I use wamp server as d local server, whenever I run a page I save with the extension .php, I get the result 'error loading page', can anyone please tell me what is wrong.

It depends on where u save the php files.. In wamp, it should be in C:\wamp\www... When your files are saved there, just fire on your wamp and Start all Services from the icon tray.. Then run your php file on a web browser..

Thanks, I will do that.

OsoDupe:
Thanks, I will do that.

Also endeavour to use Notepad++ and always select php before coding so that your extensions will always be correct.. I hope u installed wamp directly on your C:\ drive??

This Shld help coding.smashingmagazine.com/2011/11/02/introduction-to-url-rewriting/

you got things wrong there. his needs go far beyoung .htaccess rule it involves advance rewrite rules, like using php to parse routes or link similar to frameworks.

My advice for you halaspike is this.

1. Modern Way.
Use a php framework to parse the url. this is if you will start again mind you, if you should use a framework it will make things easy and you will be happy.

2. OLd days way.

-----------/ downloads.php file ------------------


if(isset($_GET['archive'])){
// select from database column(mysql,sqldb) or document(noSql db) where title is equal to the given title from GET arrays
// if there is results return an array|object of results it
}
return false; #when no results



---------------/ .htaccess file ----------------

RewriteRule
Rewrite downloads/$1 downloads.php?archive=$1 [L]

emandman: How do i make a page automatically refresh afta posting a comment.
I want to use dis to avoid multiple commenting,at present my site is posting previous comment repeatedly each time i refresh page.thanks people.
Note: php help pls,i dnt knw javascript/jquery.

Solution

1. force page cache using meta tags headers
2. after the form has been filled and submitted successful. store the success message in a Session, then redirect the page back to the same url. after redirecting echo the session for the stored success message.


If you are using a php framework, this is easy, just use the flash function that comes with frameworks. however i believe this should never happen when using a framework.

Note!!
I will recommend no 2 to no1.

Ben1975: Hi

I have been having problems downloading and configuring apache servers on my system so that I can use PHP 5.No matter what I do it just wont even start, first I get a message say in the downloading process a file is missing so the server will not start try downloading again...I do, same problem.[color=#006600]

I have tried XAMPP, EasyPHP etc non of them seem to work

Any suggestions?[/color]

Do not be discouraged, i believed maybe your system has been formatted at one point in time.

Do this go and download WAMP from official wamp servers website. After installing wamp if you see any error of something.dll[/b]file missing. All you have to do is go back to the wamp site click the download button for wamp then when that modal or pop up comes up read below and you will see a message asking you to download [b]VCREDICT...... once you download it thats all

Chek to see that your ftp details are right.

Note if you are using shared hosting check to see this ftp feature is enabled by your host by default.

Irshittabey: <?php
*/First connect to database then*/
if(isset($_post['submit'])) {
$var1=$_files['picz'] ['name'];
$var2=$_files['picz'] ['tmp_name'];
*/picz is the name of the text field in the form used for uploading the picture*/

$vary=pathinfo($var1);
$varz=$vary['extension'];
$arr=array("PNG","JPG","GIF","png","jpg","gif" ) ;
if(in_array($varz,$arr)) {move_uploaded_file($var2,'pictures/'.$var1 ) ;
mysql_query("insert into tablename (pic) values('".$var1."')" ) ;
*/pictures the name of the folder in ur working directory for pictures,pic is the name in the database it would be saved./*
}
}
}
?>

1. Always trim and make sure that uploaded files name are only alphaNumeric or alphanumeric with underscore or dash. Do not just trust names of upoaded files

2. There is no need of using capitals and small letters. Lol! i understand you and your point. however what if i name my file as nairaland.JpG ? Hmmmmmm you see?

Solution
Apply the php string function called strtolower($_files['picz']['name']) , apply it on the uploaded file name. now you can use only small letters.

Lastly never trust uploaded files. infact use uploading class for more security. i mean better written one may be from symfony.
