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

Yeah, they are things I decided were less useful

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

No rush

Go do more interesting things.

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

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

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

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

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

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

got it, apparently:

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

works

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

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

bowersbros wrote:is that the best way? or is there like a hidden function that is obscure yet does this?

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

bowersbros wrote:if not. they should make one

Or we should for the library

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;
}

^^ done
