Image manipulation if you are feeling up to it :)

Something to basically wrap the GD library functions but also take some of the pain away and maybe add some function to do things like resize images and create thumbnails.

For my reference mainly, and for people to suggest extras:

Validation Class:
    Secure (general security)
    username validation (remove spaces, etc)
    Password validation (checks security level (types of characters required))
    SecurePass (encryption and salt)
Users Class:
    login
    register
    available (checks availability of username and email and anything else)

Maybe you should just to a login / register combined thing :? most of the methods inthe validation class would make more sense in the login one.

and "general security" is never a good idea, people use it and assume they are protected form everything.

well.. im doing them seperate because login checks data, but register enters data and im trying to get register to check an array also. (so they can enter any details and it will hopefully get entered)

Hmm okay, well its up to you really, but the "available (checks availability of username and email and anything else)" methid should defiantly be part of the user class.

Code: Select all


$fields 
= array('name','username','password','users','hey','whatsup');

while(
$fields){
            foreach(array_keys($fields) as $field){
                 echo $field;
            }
        }

 


What i need is the key of the array name and the content to go together into the database for registration.. Any ideas? :P

/edit: got it.

Code: Select all


$fields 
= array('name' => 'Alex''last_name' => 'bowers''month' => 'Jan');

foreach(
$fields as $k => $v){
    echo 
"Key: " $k " -> Value: " $v;
}

I don't really get your use of the while loop there :? In fact I have no idea what you mean :lol:

Also it should probably be a post in php help ;)

Ah fair enough !

Yes that method makes a lot more sense.

Also, any code submission should be done in attachments here on PM me so I can add to the main .zip file.

[syntax=php]<?php
function download($url, $save_to){
if(file_put_contents($save_to, file_get_contents($url))){

Isn't it that simple?
