PHP Code for Connecting to MySQL<?php //db.php $db_location = "localhost"; $db_username = "webbook"; $db_password = "secret"; $db_database = "webbook"; $db_connection = mysql_connect("$db_location","$db_username","$db_password") or die ("Error - Could not connect to MySQL Server"); $db = mysql_select_db($db_database,$db_connection) or die ("Error - Could not open database");?>

Information supplied:• The location of the MySQL server ($db location)• The user’s MySQL username ($db username)• The user’s password ($db password)


Important Start

Registering for Our Web Site


You can go to the CD and get this page as a starting point, then edit it.

Registration Scenarios

• During the registration process we must be prepared to deal with at least the following possible scenarios:– Successful registration– Does not pass JavaScript validation on the client

side– Already registered and has perhaps forgotten they

have done so, which will be recognized when the user is discovered to be in the database already

– Choosing a login name that is already in useChapter 10: PHP and MySQL for Client-Server Database Interaction

XHTML and PHP Code for the Registration Form


These are .php files

Validating the Form Data (1 of 3)







The php files for the customer registration process

db.php

Simply opens the database connection and saves it as a variable

processRegistration.php

This does the actual query to save the data to the database. Also contains the functions to handle the exceptions

registration.phpCalls the processRegistration script/page and provides a place to return to when the processing is done. Not very big

register.phpThis is the page that the user will enter into the url to open up. It all starts from here.It has the form in it to collect the data. (also calls validation)

I suggest we start with trying to add someone to our customer table.

Messages


Re-registering for the Site with Different e-mail but Same Username


XHTML and PHP Code for Processing the Registration Data


Built in function to start maintaining the idea “state” or “session” variables.

Main Program from processRegistration.php (1 of 2)


Main Program from processRegistration.php (2 of 2)


Check next slide to use the $_POST superglobal to actual grab the data the user typed in to the form.


VALUES ( NULL, '$_POST[firstName]', '$_POST[middleInitial]', '$_POST[lastName]', '$_POST[email]', '$unique_login', '$_POST[loginPassword]', '$_POST[phone]', '$_POST[address]', '$_POST[city]', '$_POST[state]', '$_POST[zip]', '$_POST[country]');";

I believe this correctNotice the addition of “ ‘$_POST[…….]’”

A Helper Function from processRegistration.php


Another Helper Function from processRegistration.php


PHP Arraysphp > //The following command creates an array:php > $a[] = "Hello";php > //We omitted the subscript so the next availablephp > //subscript is used, which is 0 in this case.


php > //Cannot use the echo command to print an array.

php > echo $a;Arrayphp > //But ... the echo command can print elements of an array.

php > echo $a[0];Hello

PHP Arraysphp > //Let us now add a number of elements to our array.

php > $a[] = "World";php > $a[-90] = "This is wild";php > $a[90] = "This is wild";php > $a[70] = "This is wild";php > $a[name] = "Pawan";


PHP Arraysphp > //You can use the print_r() function to print an entire array.

php > print_r($a);Array([0] => Hello[1] => World[-90] => This is wild[90] => This is wild[70] => This is wild[name] => Pawan)php > //As we can see, the indexes are not ordered as you would havephp > //expected, since -90 comes after 1, and 70 comes after 90.


PHP Arraysphp > //You can delete an element using the function unset

php > unset($a[-90]);php > print_r($a);Array([0] => Hello[1] => World[90] => This is wild[70] => This is wild[name] => Lingras)php > //The count() gives you the size of an array.

php > echo count($a);7


PHP Arraysphp > //The "construct" array() (not a function) can be used to create an entire array.

php > $a = array("This", "is", "different", 5, 6, 7);php > print_r($a);Array([0] => This[1] => is[2] => different[3] => 5[4] => 6[5] => 7)


PHP Arrays: Summary• A PHP array index is really just a means of accessing a particular

element in an array. It does not necessarily suggest an ordering. That is why we can use -90 as an index, which is stored in the array after the index 1.

• If we do not use an index to place a value in an array, the first numeric index greater than the last-used numeric index is used.

• Array elements can be displayed using echo, but you need to use the built-in function print_r() to print an entire array.

• A function called count() gives us the size of an array.• An entire array can be created by using the array() construct.• If we want conventionally ordered numeric indices from an

associative array, we can use the function array_values().




$_SESSION

• Super global• Array containing session variables available as

a global (that you define the index)• Temporarily store data specific to a particular

user while he/she surfs your website.• data is stored on web server• At the beginning of your script, make a call to

the session_start() function

Passing Key/Value Pairs in a URL$goto = "Location: ../purchase.php?prod=$prod";header('Location: ../login.php?retry=true');

• At the end of each of these lines we see a ? separating a key/value pair in which the key and value are themselves separated by an equals sign.

• The value half of the pair can be provided as a literal value (true) or as a variable ($prod).

• More than one key/value pair can be passed along in this way, in which case an & separates the key/value pairs:login.php?retry=true&otherKey=otherValue
