SSL Tip
I just wanted to give you guys a tip for when you all go over to SSL. Even though your site use a secure connection, you need to use [syntax=php]session_set_cookie_params();[/syntax] before calling [syntax=php]session_start();[/syntax] otherwise your session cookies will be sent in the clear.

Image Size Definition
Are there any disadvantages of not defining the width and height of an image withing an <img> tag apart from making the browser waste cycles working out how big the image should be? I am using CSS to set a maximum width and height, within a custom <div> tag. I am doing this in order to make the site...

Two Factor Authentication
Hi,
Are you planning to do a two-factor authentication tutorial? This would, I think, be a really good thing. I suggest using SMS to send the user a 5 digit code and log-in with that.

Re: Random String Goodyness
I don't, I just wanted to see what it would output, The point of going for 0 was to demonstrate my point (that you could put in any number and it'd return a string of a different length). I got a string length of 26 when I passed '10' to the function, 13 gave 23. I'm guessing there is just something...

Re: Another opinion needed on a website..
still haven't decided whether I should sell it or just give it away for free (but with limited accounts if free..). It would be less of a hassle. I'd be in favor of offering free accounts and, for more money, paid accounts. Charging for access is nice but, as there are free services available that ...

Re: A New Project?
I have been working on my new project over the past few weeks. It is supposed to be an IMDb type movie search engine. Check it out at http://www.moviestop.org.uk. If it doesn't work right, let me know and I'm sure I will get round to fixing it at some point.

A New Project?
I have pretty much finished working on Twisted Media, so I thought I'd ask the forum what my next project should be? I would create my own blog or forum, but there seems little point seeing as how we have phpBB and Wordpress.

Re: Undefined index on array output
Line 14 was this line [syntax=php] $topicid = (int)$listresult['topicid'];
[/syntax] but I have changed it so now the value is assigned to a variable which is passed to the other function (so now not using the array as input)

The issue surrounding the SQL table being dumped is virtually non-existent because although the bad guys have the user portion of the salt, they do not have the static key or a knowledge of how many times your password was hashed. They would only be able to retrieve the static part of your salt, as ...

Re: Survey Security
Hmm... it seems OK however, for each question you're giving users a choice, I would put each choice in an array and check against that because someone could easily view the forms' source, inject their own string, and submit the form. If you put all possible allowable answers in an array, this cannot...

Re: Best way to do login
You should probably have the users' ID, from the database, in the session and then the username. Then you can check to see whether the user ID and the username match.
