Hello,
I'm in the middle of modifying a script and I've come across a problem.
I have a form that gets repeated x number of times and each field in
the form gets the name $item_number_ . $business_item_ index ._(the
specific field name). These varaibles get reposted to the same page as
$_POST variables, so that the forms save the users settings. What I'm
trying to do is parse through those fields that the user did not set,
and if they are null, to unset them and decrement the counter
($business_item _index) so that one less form gets written to the screen
the next time the user submits.
My problem is that when I parse through them like this:
if ($_POST['item_number_'. $business_item_ index.'_title'] == NULL){
unset ($_POST['item_number_'. $business_item_ index.'_title']);
$business_item_ index --;
}
Php sees that variable key I'm calling as
item_number_ 1_title
even though I defined $business_item_ index as a variable and it works
just fine if I decrement or increment it.
Note the white space after "number_". I can't figure out why php is
prepending a space to my integer.
My actual code is alot more complicated than this, because I'm doing a
foreach statement and splitting the $_POST global array into key =
value and then unsetting all the keys that have
item_number_$bu siness_item_ind ex as a substr($key, 0,13), so that all
of the fields for that business item form gets unset. But I think the
above example is sufficient to explain the problem. If you need to see
a more detailed code block I can post it.
Thanks for any assistance. 1 1377
well, not going deep to the cause you could use
trim($business_ item_index)
to get rid of first and last spaces if $business_item_ index is a string
after all or you could try to convert string to int like this
intval($busines s_item_index) it should also remove your leading space This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics |

enough of extra proof that the cat doesn't hount mice anymore in more

the base for it.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp
Here is the code in...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
