i simply pass 3 values to the URL and while testing i was trying to echo them back to the screen but it will only echo each value once even though i have set it to echo at various points. once i escape the value it wont let me echo it. Why is this?
<?php
session_start();
if (isset($_SESSION['SESSION_C']) && ($_SESSION['SESSION_C']==true))
{
$getyear = $_GET["Year"];
echo $getyear; (IT WILL ECHO AT THIS POINT)
$getyear = mysql_real_escape_string($getyear);
echo $getyear; (BUT WONT ECHO HERE)
$getsite = $_GET["Site"];
echo $getsite;
$getsite = mysql_real_escape_string($getsite);
echo $getsite;
$getsite = str_replace(' ', '', $getsite);
echo $getsite;
$getdoc = $_GET["Doc"];
echo $getdoc;
$getdoc = mysql_real_escape_string($getdoc);
echo $getdoc;
}
else
{
echo "sessionerror";
}
?>
mysql_real_escape_string()
requires a open connection to mysql. Otherwise it will return false. I guess var_dump($getdoc);
will give you boolean(false)
.
You'll have to call mysql_connect()
before that code.
