    str_replace doesn't work when subject is array of arrays

    Thank you. Here's the actual code I used: $circuit_array[0] = array("ch1kwh","ch2kwh","aux1kwh","aux2kwh","aux3kwh","aux4kwh","aux5kwh"); $circuit_array[1] = array("ch1kwh","ch2kwh","aux1kwh","aux2kwh","aux3kwh","aux4kwh","aux5kwh"); foreach ($circuit_array as $value) {...

    str_replace doesn't work when subject is array of arrays

    Is str_replace supposed to work when the subject (haystack) is an array of arrays, not just a simple array? Here's an example: $old_array[0] = array("needle1","needle2","needle3"); $old_array[1] = array("needle4","needle5","needle6"); $new_array = str_replace("needle","pin", $old_array); echo...

    Is this secure? Serving content from two servers with SSL

    I am assuming that both servers are secure on their own. This is more of an SSL question, not specific to the server software. I included that information in case it makes a difference. The question is whether the shopping cart on Server 1 can somehow become vulnerable when the cart pages are...

    Is this secure? Serving content from two servers with SSL

    Is there any reason the following setup wouldn't be secure? Server 1: - Shopping cart system that accepts credit cards. - ASP, IIS, unknown database, SSL. - I have very little access to this server. Server 2: - Used to customize additional content for Server 1 (cannot be done on Server 1...

    PHP session vars time out after only a few minutes.

    Thank you for the extensive reply (I learned a lot), but I think you read my post so quickly that you didn't notice: The site is on a shared host (so I can't do some of the stuff you mention) The PHP version is 5.3.3-7.1+hw2 (what is hw2?) session_save_path is indeed set (/var/lib/php5) I...

    PHP session vars time out after only a few minutes.

    I have a PHP site on a shared host (PHP version: 5.3.3-7.1+hw2). The session variables (e.g.: $_SESSION["some_variable"]) usually time out too fast (under 5 minutes). On the local test server (PHP 5.4.10) there is no problem. The hosting tech support guys are no help. phphinfo (below) shows...

    After converting to hex, add leading zeros if you need exactly 10 digits.

    Oops. Please ignore. Nothing wrong with code. Something else. How can I delete this post?

    $$ variable variables not working with foreach loop

    I'm trying to loop through an array of variable names to grab values from a form and assign the values to variables. It's not working--none of the form values get picked up. Here's what I've tried: $field_list = array("field1","field2",etc.) foreach ($field_list as $value) { $$value =...

    Implicit conversion varchar to money not allowed?

    Documentation for T-SQL says that the conversion from varchar to money is implicit (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms187928.aspx see chart about 1/3 down the page). But, when I try inserting into a money column like this: sql = "INSERT INTO myTable (myMoney) VALUES ('" &...

    QUERY SPEED: IN vs. NOT IN

    Well, it took all of 70 seconds to update 212,000 records.

    QUERY SPEED: IN vs. NOT IN

    I guess this would be better: AND ( (table3.table4_id <> 1436 AND table3.table4_id <> 2477 AND table3.table4_id <> 6428 AND table3.table4_id <> 7241) OR table3.table4_id IS NULL )

    QUERY SPEED: IN vs. NOT IN

    Thanks, I didn't know aliases could be used in an UPDATE like that. And thanks for the "sargable" article. Great word. Yes, it has to be LEFT JOIN on table3. I don't understand what you mean by the WHERE clause turning the LEFT JOIN on table3 into an INNER JOIN. Also, don't see why it should...

    QUERY SPEED: IN vs. NOT IN

    I've got to update records in a table containing about 210,000 records and I'm curious if different versions of the query will make much difference in the time it takes to execute. Specifically, is it better to use IN with a subquery that returns a large recordset or NOT IN with a subquery...

    It's not secure. See: http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/07/080722175802.htm "Placing secure login boxes on insecure pages: A full 47 percent of banks were guilty of this. A hacker could reroute data entered in the boxes or create a spoof copy of the page to harvest information. In a...

    CSS Menu: Need link to work when over &lt;li&gt;, not just text

    Finally: #leftnav a:first-letter { text-transform: capitalize; } instead of #leftnav ul ul li a:first-letter { text-transform: capitalize; } did the trick.

    CSS Menu: Need link to work when over &lt;li&gt;, not just text

    Well, I celebrated too soon. All kinds of weird things happened, so I started over and ended up with something that works everywhere except for IE6, in which the rollover only affects the first letter. I figure I'll use some conditional comments to fix that. <html> <head> <style...
