BetterPHP PHP Library

Yes they are mine

They are also the ones in the git if you bothered to look !

I did see the ones in the git, but there are more in the zip i posted

[jacek]

Yeah, they are things I decided were less useful

[Tino]

Alright, so other things have come up, which definitely take priority over this. Sorry guys, you'll have to wait a tad longer

[jacek]

No rush

Go do more interesting things.

[Dominion]

What kind of things are you looking for? My library has a fair few security check functions, but all the more useful functions I use tend to be site specific. Would I be able to add some JS functions?
btw - Js functions != using Jquery

[jacek]

Anything that would be useful can be added

And I think JavaScript would have to be a different project, mostly because of the name.

well, mine will be continued upon arrival of a mySQL class

No rush tino

I added a basic one you should be able to use it to make your thing, and Tino can add some more complicated things to my mysql class if he feels like it

[bowersbros]

how would i use the mysql class within? Like.. for the mysql server connection?

[jacek]

it would be a global variable so...

class user {
    
    public function get_names(){
        global $mysql;
        
        $mysql->query('SELECT `name` FROM `users`');
        $mysql->fetch_array($names);
        
        return $names;
    }

}

Go with that for now

Hmm, say if i have two arrays, both setup as single dimensions how can i fuse them together?

So for example, I have these:

$array1 = array('users','table1','table2','table3');
$array2 = array('username','password','blah','blah');

How could i make it so that the $array 1 values were the keys, and the $array2 values were the values?

(This is to be used for the validation thing, to check for unique values in a mysql field(s))

/edit.

Or should i do it where it is one multidimensional arrays so they can check multiple things within 1 array.

Eg.

array('users' => array('username','email))

Like that.

However, i dont know how to do either atm (spend 4 hours solid literature revision, my brain hurts!)

which method is best?

array_combine() will do that for you

Or should i do it where it is one multidimensional arrays so they can check multiple things within 1 array.

Entirely up to you do it the best way

there is an is_array() function, is there something that checks for multidimensional array? if so, i could incorporate both

Where will these library files be accessible from? Surely, just posting them in this thread is terribly inefficient.

read first post

[bowersbros]

got it, apparently:

if (count($array) == count($array, COUNT_RECURSIVE)) { echo 'array is not multidimensional'; } else { echo 'array is multidimensional'; }

works

[jacek]

Oh I see what you wanted to do now, well you seem to have found a good enough solution

[bowersbros]

is that the best way? or is there like a hidden function that is obscure yet does this? if not. they should make one

[jacek]

I don't know of a way to do that other than what you did.

if not. they should make one

Or we should for the library

[bowersbros]

that would require a new functions.inc.php file then

If you want to start it, uplaod it and just include:

function is_multi(array $array){
if(count($array) == count($array, COUNT_RECURSIVE)) return false;
}
