Error summary PHP - constantly updated (must read for newbies)
Please enable all error prompts for development: error_reporting = E_ALL | E_STRICT
Blocking error prompts is equivalent to covering one’s ears and stealing the bell.
Write code in a standardized way and reduce errors by half.
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 $name?
In PHP4.2 and later versions, register_global defaults to off
If you want to get the variables submitted from another page:
Method 1: Find register_global in PHP.ini and set it to on.
Method 2: Put this extract($_POST);extract($_GET);(note that there must be Session_Start() before extract($_SESSION)) at the front of the receiving web page.
Method 3: Read variables $a=$_GET["a"];$b=$_POST["b"], etc. one by one. Although this method is troublesome, it is safer.
2: Debug your program
You must know the value of a certain variable at runtime. This is what I did, create a file debug.php with the following content:
Ob_Start();
Session_Start();
Echo ""; Echo "The _GET variables obtained on this page are:"; Print_R($_GET); Echo "The _POST variables obtained on this page are:"; Print_R($_POST); Echo "This page obtained The _COOKIE variables are: "; Print_R($_COOKIE); Echo "The _SESSION variables obtained on this page are: "; Print_R($_SESSION); Echo "";
Then set include_path = "c:/php" in php.ini and place debug.php in this folder,
In the future, you can include this file in every web page and view the obtained variable names and values.
3: How to use session
Everything related to session must call the function session_start();
It is very simple to pay for the session, such as:
PHP code:------------------------------------------------ -----------------------
[php]
Session_start();
$Name = "This is a Session example";
Session_Register("Name");//Note, do not write: Session_Register("$Name");
Echo $_SESSION["Name"];
//After that $_SESSION["Name"] is "This is a Session example"
[/php]
------------------------------------------------ --------------------------
After php4.2, you can pay directly for the session:
PHP code:------------------------------------------------ ----------
[php]
Session_Start();
$_SESSION["name"]="value";
[/php]
------------------------------------------------ ----------
To cancel the session, you can do this:
PHP code:------------------------------------------------ ----------
[php]
session_start();
session_unset();
session_destroy();
[/php]
------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------
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 lines [php]
3 lines Session_Start();//There was already output in the first line before
4 lines .....
5 lines [/php]
==========================================
Tip 1:
Whenever ".....headers already sent.........." appears, it means that information is output to the browser before Session_Start().
Remove the output and it will be normal. (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:
1 line [php] Ob_Start(); [/php]
...Here is your program...
2: What error is this
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, find session.save_path, and change it to session.save_path= "c:/tmp"
4: Why when I send variables to another web page, I only get the first half, and all the ones starting with spaces are lost
PHP code:------------------------------------------------ ---------------
[php]
$Var="hello php";//Change to $Var="hello php"; Try to get the result
$post= "receive.php?Name=".$Var;
header("location:$post");
[/php]
---------------------------------------------
Contents of receive.php:
PHP code:--------------------------------
[php]
Echo ""; Echo $_GET["Name"]; Echo "";
[/php]
------------------------------------------------
The correct method is:
PHP code:--------------------------------
[php]
$Var="hello php";
$post= "receive.php?Name=".urlencode($Var);
header("location:$post");
[/php]
------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------
You don’t need to use Urldecode() on the receiving page, the variables will be automatically encoded.
5: How to intercept Chinese characters of a specified length without ending with "[/php]", and replace the excess parts with "..."
Generally speaking, when the variable to be intercepted comes from Mysql, you must first ensure that the field length is long enough, usually char(200), which can hold 100 Chinese characters, including punctuation.
PHP code:------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------
[php]
$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;$i<$strlen;$i++,$clen++)
{
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 .= "..."; //Whatever you want to end with, just modify it here.
return $tempstr;
}
------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------
6: Standardize your SQL statements
Add "`" in front of the table and fields, so that errors will not occur due to misuse of keywords,
Of course I don’t 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.
7: How to prevent the Html/PHP format string from being interpreted, but display it as it is
PHP code:------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------
[php]
$str="
PHP
";
Echo "Explained: ".$str."
Processed: ";
Echo htmlentities(nl2br($str));
[/php]
------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------
8: How to get the variable value outside the function in the function
PHP code:------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------
[php]
$a="PHP";
foo();
Function foo()
{
global $a;//Delete this and see what the result is
Echo "$a";
}
[/php]
------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------
9: How do I know what functions the system supports by default
PHP code:------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------
[php]
$arr = get_defined_functions();
Function php() {
}
echo ""; Echo "This displays all the functions supported by the system, and the custom function phpn"; print_r($arr); echo "";
[/php]
------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------
10: How to compare the difference between two dates
PHP code:------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------
[php]
$Date_1="2003-7-15";//It can also be:$Date_1="2003-6-25 23:29:14";
$Date_2="1982-10-1";
$Date_List_1=explode("-",$Date_1);
$Date_List_2=explode("-",$Date_2);
$d1=mktime(0,0,0,$Date_List_1[1],$Date_List_1[2],$Date_List_1[0]);
$d2=mktime(0,0,0,$Date_List_2[1],$Date_List_2[2],$Date_List_2[0]);
$Days=round(($d1-$d2)/3600/24);
Echo "I have struggled for $Days days^_^";
[/php]
------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------
11: Why did the original program appear full screen after I upgraded PHP? Notice: Undefined variable:
This is a warning, caused by the variable being undefined.
Open php.ini, find error_reporting at the bottom, and change it to error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE
For Parse error
error_reporting(0) cannot be closed.
If you want to turn off any error prompts, open php.ini, find display_errors, and set display_errors = Off. Any errors in the future will not be prompted.
So what is error_reporting?
12: I want to add a file at the beginning and end of each file. But adding one by one is very troublesome
1: Open the php.ini file
Set include_path= "c:"
2: Write two files
Auto_prepend_file.php and auto_append_file.php are saved in the c drive, and they will be automatically attached to the head and tail of each php file.
3: Found in php.ini:
Automatically add files before or after any PHP document.
auto_prepend_file = auto_prepend_file.php; attached to the head
auto_append_file = auto_append_file.php; attached to the end
From now on, each of your php files will be equivalent to
PHP code:------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------
[php]
Include "auto_prepend_file.php" ;
....//Here is your program
Include "auto_append_file.php";
[/php]

13: How to upload files using PHP
PHP code:------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------
[php]

$upload_file=$_FILES['upload_file']['tmp_name'];
$upload_file_name=$_FILES['upload_file']['name'];
if($upload_file){
$file_size_max = 1000*1000;//1M limit file upload maximum capacity (bytes)
$store_dir = "d:/";// Storage location of uploaded files
$accept_overwrite = 1;//Whether it is allowed to overwrite the same file
// Check file size
if ($upload_file_size > $file_size_max) {
echo "Sorry, your file size is larger than specified";
exit;
}
// Check read and write files
if (file_exists($store_dir . $upload_file_name) && !$accept_overwrite) {
Echo "A file with the same file name exists";
exit;
}
//Copy the file to the specified directory
if (!move_uploaded_file($upload_file,$store_dir.$upload_file_name)) {
echo "Failed to copy file";
exit;
}
}
Echo "
You uploaded a file:";
echo $_FILES['upload_file']['name'];
echo "
";
//The original name of the client machine file.
Echo "The MIME type of the file is:";
echo $_FILES['upload_file']['type'];
//The MIME type of the file, which requires the browser to provide support for this information, such as "image/gif".
echo "
";
Echo "Upload file size:";
echo $_FILES['upload_file']['size'];
//The size of the uploaded file, in bytes.
echo "
";
Echo "The file is temporarily stored as:" after uploading;
echo $_FILES['upload_file']['tmp_name'];
//The temporary file name stored on the server after the file is uploaded.
echo "
";
$Erroe=$_FILES['upload_file']['error'];
switch($Erroe){
case 0:
Echo "Upload successful"; break;
Case 1:
Echo "The uploaded file exceeds the limit of the upload_max_filesize option in php.ini."; break;
case 2:
Echo "The size of the uploaded file exceeds the value specified by the MAX_FILE_SIZE option in the HTML form."; break;
case 3:
Echo "Only part of the file was uploaded";break;
case 4:
Echo "No files uploaded";break;
}
[/php]

14: How to configure the GD library
The following is my configuration process
1: Use dos command (you can also do it manually, copy all dll files in the dlls folder to the system32 directory) copy c:phpdlls*.dll c:windowssystem32
2: Open php.ini
Set extension_dir = "c:/php/extensions/";
3:
Extension=php_gd2.dll; Remove the comma in front of extension. If there is no php_gd2.dll, the same is true for php_gd.dll. Make sure this file does exist c:/php/extensions/php_gd2.dll
4: Run the following program to test
PHP code:------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------
[php]
Ob_end_flush();
// Note that no information can be output to the browser before this. Please pay attention to whether auto_prepend_file is set.
header ("Content-type: image/png");
$im = @imagecreate (200, 100)
or die ("Unable to create image");
$background_color = imagecolorallocate ($im, 0,0, 0);
$text_color = imagecolorallocate ($im, 230, 140, 150);
Imagestring ($im, 3, 30, 50, "A Simple Text String", $text_color);
imagepng ($im);
[/php]

15: What is UBB code
UBB code is a variant of HTML and a special TAG used by Ultimate Bulletin Board (a foreign BBS program, which is also used in many places in China).
Even if the use of HTML is prohibited, you can still use UBBCode?. Maybe you prefer to use UBBCode? instead of HTML, even if the forum allows the use of HTML, because it uses less code and is safer.
There are examples in Q3boy’s UBB, you can run the test directly
16: I want to change the MySQL user and password
First of all, let me declare that in most cases, modifying MySQL requires root permissions in mysql,
So general users cannot change passwords unless requesting an administrator.
Method 1
Using phpmyadmin, this is the easiest, 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 password of root 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 all used at the mysql prompt and must have mysql root permissions:
Method 3
mysql> INSERT INTO mysql.user (Host,User,Password)
VALUES('%','jeffrey',PASSWORD('biscuit'));
mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES
To be precise, this is adding a user, the username is jeffrey and the password is biscuit.
There is this example in the "mysql Chinese Reference Manual", so I wrote it out.
Be careful to use the PASSWORD function, and then use FLUSH PRIVILEGES.
Method 4
Same as method three, except using the REPLACE statement
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';
The PASSWORD() function is unnecessary here, and there is no need to use FLUSH PRIVILEGES.
Note: PASSWORD() [does not] perform password encryption in the same way as Unix password encryption.
