PHP people... Quick question on why this no longer works...
 
This code used to work... Then my host upgraded my PHP and now it lo longer works... Pooh pooh!

Code:
if ($cmd == 'go' && ($url && $title && $blogs && $types))

The variables $url, $title, $blogs and $types all are arrays.

Again, this used to work yesterday.... Now it doesn't.

PHP was 5.2.5 and is now 5.2.9.

how is your blog network doing?

Deej 03-22-2009 12:46 PM
After their upgrade, did they get apache up and running properly?

A simple upgrade 'shouldnt' effect an already working script

V_RocKs 03-22-2009 12:54 PM
After upgrade everything else worked... except for this particular script. For some reason it doesn't return TRUE anymore. I believe it has something to do with the variables being arrays...

Blog network is going good.

Did they enable safe mode when they upgraded?

woj 03-22-2009 01:15 PM
they probably disabled register_globals :2 cents:

V_RocKs 03-22-2009 01:16 PM
Ah... was a globals problem.

In case anyone is keyword searching, there actually is a backward-INcompatible change from PHP4.X to php5.X involving arrays.

In php5 If you don't explicitly declare a variable as an array and then later you try to use certain array functions on it (slice, splice, etc), it will not work.

I learned this the hard way when I upgraded a dedicated box with a bunch of legacy php code on it.

Thanks for the heads up!

You should also write the code cleaner by using things like isset($url) instead of the way you're doing it.. Doing it the way you're doing it is going to be throwing a lot of errors you just don't see (unless you set the error reporting higher) but that could very well be being logged to the server error log. I learned that the hard way when I had a log filling up my disk space on a small virtual acount.

By the way.. If you ever want to source out your programming, I'd be interested in doing some of your stuff..

coding the phps
 
($url && $title && $blogs && $types)

that must be returning true

why not maybe change to

if($cmd == 'go' ){
if($url==true && $title==true && $blogs==true && $types==true){}
}
?

This thread makes my balls hurts.

If they are arrays you should first check to make sure that's indeed what they are.

http://php.net/is_array

Also, try using a switch instead of a null else or long ass if-elseif-else chain.

http://php.net/switch

I'm happy the code you posted here fails :error

2012 03-23-2009 06:35 PM
echo 'help me' . '<BR>' ;
echo 'help meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee' ;

switch is for pussies... you're not a real programmer unless your code is unreadable.

if ($_GET['cmd'] == 'go' && (($_GET['url'] && $_GET['title']) && ($_GET['blogs'] && $_GET['types'])))

Win.

calmlikeabomb 03-23-2009 07:00 PM
^ That's a fail, because it'd require the array to be passed via the url.

Unless you're assigning an array to $_GET, which in case would also be a fail.

Plus you're still not checking to see if the variables are arrays. Wouldn't you want to do that before any processing occurs?

calmlikeabomb 03-23-2009 07:04 PM
I want to know what url, title, blogs, and types variable are part of so i can see the big picture. Wtf, does your script do.

When I heard that I was exstatic... almost ended up with a cum stain...

Voodoo 03-23-2009 08:28 PM
This works. I'm not sure if it's proper for what you're doing or not, but maybe it helps.
Code:
$cmd=$_GET['cmd'];
$url=$_GET['url'];
$title=$_GET['title'];
$blogs=$_GET['blogs'];
$types=$_GET['types'];
$check=is_string($url)&&($title)&&($blogs)&&($types);

if(($cmd=='go')&&($check != FALSE)){
        echo "YAY!";
}else{
        echo "BOOO!";
}
