Summary of some common problems in Php 1: Why can’t I get the variable

I POST data name from one web page to another web page, why can’t I get any value when I output $name?

After PHP 4.2 In this version, register_global defaults to off
If you want to get the variables submitted from another page:

Method 1: Find register_global in PHP.ini and set it to on.
Method 2: Put this extract($_POST);extract($_GET); at the front of the receiving webpage (note that there must be Session_Start() before extract($_SESSION)).
Method 3: Read variables $a= one by one $_GET["a"];$b=$_POST["b"], etc. Although this method is troublesome, it is safer.

2: Debug your program

while it is running You must know the value of a variable.This is what I did, create a file debug.php with the following content:

PHP code:------------------------ -------------------------------------------------- ------

Ob_Start();
Session_Start();
Echo "

";<br><br>Echo "this The _GET variables obtained by this page are: ";<br>Print_R($_GET);<br><br>Echo "The _POST variables obtained by this page are: ";<br>Print_R($_POST);<br> <br>Echo "The _COOKIE variables obtained on this page are:";<br>Print_R($_COOKIE);<br><br>Echo "The _SESSION variables obtained on this page are:";<br>Print_R($ _SESSION);<br>Echo "
";
?>

----------------------- -------------------------------------------------- -------

Then set include_path = "c:/php" in php.ini, and put debug.php in this folder.
You can then set it in each This file is included in the web page and you can view the variable names and values.

3: How to use session

Anything related to session must call the function session_start();

Paying value for the session is very simple, such as:


PHP code:-------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- -

Session_start();
$Name = "This is a Session example";
Session_Register("Name");//Note, do not write: Session_Register ("$Name");
Echo $_SESSION["Name"];
//Then $_SESSION["Name"] is "This is a Session example"
?>

------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------



After php4.2, You can pay directly for the session:

PHP code: ---------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------

Session_Start();
$_SESSION["name"]="value";
?>

--------- -------------------------------------------------- --------------------

Cancel the session like this:

PHP code:---------- -------------------------------------------------- --------------------

session_start();
session_unset();
session_destroy() ;
?>

------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------


There is a BUG in canceling a certain session variable in php4.2 and above.



Note:

1: There cannot be any output before calling Session_Start(). For example The following is wrong.
============================================
1 line
2 lines3 lines Session_Start();//There was already output in the first line before
4 lines...
5 lines?> ;
============================================


Tip 1:

Any time ".....headers already sent....." appears, it means that information is output to the browser before Session_Start() .
It will be normal if you remove the output, (this error will also occur in COOKIE, the cause of the error is the same)

Tip 2:

If your Session_Start() is placed in a loop statement, and It is difficult to determine where the information was output to the browser before. You can use the following method:
Line 1
.....Here is your program ......



2: What is this error

Warning: session_start(): open(/tmpsess_7d190aa36b4c5ec13a5c1649cc2da23f, O_RDWR) failed:....
Because you did not specify the storage path of the session file.

Solution:
(1) Create the folder tmp on the c drive
(2) Open php.ini and find session.save_path, Modify to session.save_path= "c:/tmp"



4: Why when I transfer variables to another web page, I only get the first half, and all the ones starting with spaces are lost


PHP code:---------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------

$Var="hello php";//Change to $Var=" hello php"; Try to get the result
$post= "receive.php?Name=".$Var;
header ("location:$post");
?>

----------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- -

receive.php content:

PHP code:------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- --

Echo "
";<br>Echo $_GET["Name"];<br>Echo "
";
?>

----------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------


Correct The method is:

PHP code:----------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------

$Var="hello php";
$post= "receive.php?Name=".urlencode($Var);
header("location:$post");
?>

----------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------


Receiving You don't need to use Urldecode() on the page, the variables will be automatically encoded.


5: How to intercept Chinese characters of a specified length without ending with "?>", and the excess part will end with "..." Replace


Generally speaking, the variable to be intercepted comes from Mysql. First, you must ensure that the field length is long enough, usually char(200), which can hold 100 Chinese characters, including punctuation.

PHP code:-------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------

$ str="This character is so long,^_^";
$Short_Str=showShort($str,4);//Intercept the first 4 Chinese characters, the result is: this character...
Echo "$Short_Str";
Function csubstr($str,$start,$len )
{
$strlen=strlen($str);
$clen=0;
for($i=0;$i {
if ($clen>=$start+$len)
break;
if(ord(substr($str,$i,1))>0xa0)
{
if ($clen>=$start)
$tmpstr.=substr($str,$i,2);
$i++;
}
else
{
if ($ clen>=$start)
$tmpstr.=substr($str,$i,1);
}
}

return $tmpstr;
}
Function showShort($str,$len)
{
$tempstr = csubstr($str,0,$len);
if ($str$tempstr)
$tempstr .= " ..."; //What you want to end with, just modify it here.

return $tempstr;
}

------------- -------------------------------------------------- ------------------



6: Standardize your SQL statements


in front of tables and fields Add "`" so that errors will not occur due to misuse of keywords.
Of course I do not recommend you to use keywords.

For example
$Sql="INSERT INTO `xltxlm ` (`author`, `title`, `id`, `content`, `date`) VALUES ('xltxlm', 'use`', 1, 'criterion your sql string ', '2003-07-11 00: 00:00')"

"`"How to input? On the TAB key.

8: How to get the variable value outside the function in the function


PHP code:----------- -------------------------------------------------- ------------------

$a="PHP";
foo();
Function foo()
{
global $a;//Delete here and see what the result is
Echo "$a";
}
?>

-- -------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------



9: How do I know what functions the system supports by default?


PHP code:----------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------

15: What is UBB code


UBB code is a variant of HTML and is the Ultimate Bulletin Board (a foreign BBS program, also used in many places in China) uses a special TAG.
Even if the use of HTML is prohibited, you can still use UBBCode? to achieve it. Maybe you would rather use UBBCode? instead HTML, even if the forum allows the use of HTML, it is safer to use because it requires less code.

Q3boy’s UBB has examples, you can run the test directly


16: I want to modify MySQL user, password

First of all, let me declare that in most cases, modifying MySQL requires root permissions in mysql,
so ordinary users cannot change the password unless requesting the administrator.

Method 1
Use phpmyadmin, this is the simplest, modify the user table of the mysql library,
But don’t forget to use the PASSWORD function.

Method 2
Use mysqladmin, which is a special case stated earlier.
mysqladmin -u root -p password mypasswd
After entering this command, you need to enter the original password of root, and then the root password will be changed to mypasswd.
Change root in the command to your username, and you can change your own password.
Of course, if your mysqladmin cannot connect to the mysql server, or you cannot execute mysqladmin,
then this method is invalid.
And mysqladmin cannot clear the password.

The following methods are used at the mysql prompt and must have root permissions for mysql:
Method 3
mysql> INSERT INTO mysql.user (Host,User,Password)
VALUES('%','jeffrey',PASSWORD('biscuit'));
mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES
To be exact, this is adding a user with the username jeffrey and the password biscuit.
There is this example in the "mysql Chinese Reference Manual", so I wrote it out.
Note that you need to use the PASSWORD function, and then use FLUSH PRIVILEGES.

Method 4
Same as method 3, except that the REPLACE statement is used
mysql> REPLACE INTO mysql.user (Host,User,Password)
VALUES('%','jeffrey ',PASSWORD('biscuit'));
mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES

Method 5
Use the SET PASSWORD statement,
mysql> SET PASSWORD FOR jeffrey@"%" = PASSWORD(' biscuit');
You must also use the PASSWORD() function,
but there is no need to use FLUSH PRIVILEGES.

Method 6
Use GRANT... IDENTIFIED BY statement
mysql> GRANT USAGE ON *.* TO jeffrey@"%" IDENTIFIED BY 'biscuit';
Here is the PASSWORD() function is unnecessary, and there is no need to use FLUSH PRIVILEGES.

Note: PASSWORD() [does not] perform password encryption in the same way as Unix password encryption.

return $ip2;
