Change variables from function

JV
Subject: Change variables from function

Currently im working on writing login/verification scripts and I understand
that leaving files that may contain sensitive information in the Document
Root is unadvisable, thus im working on breaking up my long scripts into
files to be included from the main page through the <? required() ?> tag.

So herein lies the question. how can i safely set/alter the same variables
from across several different functions ? I kinda understand the use global
vairables.

If this is a syntax issue or you know of a site that might have indepth
references to the php syntax, then feel free to reply that as well.

Thnx n advnc

So, Do global variables not work? Can you give us a code example?

Folks, When I read data from my form, I sanitize it before recording it in MySQL. At the moment, the values in $_POST are cleaned and returned in a new array called $formData. I found my accident that I could change the value of $_POST thus I was thinking it would be better usage of memory (and therefore overall performance) if instead of having duplicate data that I instead have the cleaned data returned to $_POST.

I don't know much about javascript, so take it easy on me. Is there a way to dynamically change a CSS layers dimensions on the fly. Here is what I'm doing. I have a bunch of thumbnails that when clicked on, will open up the full view in a CSS layer, as opposed to a pop-up window let's say. I had this before, but with one layer for each image, and as you might imagine, the markup was way too bloated. So can I just change the css layers...

Hi, Code below dynamically adds an input box to a form, creating a new name attribute as it goes... (many thanks to Martin Honnen for getting me this far ;0) Problem is - in IE5.5 only the first form field (the hard-coded one) is recovered from the form, while with Mozilla/Firefox all fields are. The alert() just shows that the newly created element has no name in IE. Can anyone offer help with this bizarre problem (I thought any old...

Mozilla-based browsers have watch and unwatch methods to detect change in value of form elements (or any Javascript variables really). IE doesn't support this. Is there a a reliable cross-browser way alternative to this? Something that will let me detect a change in value for a form element and trigger my own callback function upon change? Hopefully, something that is generic enough to be called as "MyWatch(element)"!

Hi, is there any tool to change naming convention in c++ sources? I mean something, that parses cpp and h files in my project, and it finds, what variables are there declared. I think, it should have a public "CALLBACK" function (which would be impemented by me), which would tell the program, how to rename variables and functions. It should work like that: I have sourcecode:

This returns the following error: "Cannot modify the return value of 'System.Collections.Generic.List<MyStruct>.this' because it is not a variable" and I have no idea why! Do lists return copies of their elements? Why can't I change the element itself? class Program { private struct MyStruct

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...

Overview: 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,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
