I would love to help you out here but I have no idea what your problem is. Please explain exactly what it is that you are trying to get, where you are trying to get it from, where you are trying to put it, and what information the user is supplying. Telling us that the method that you are using doesn't work doesn't help us help you. It could be a problem of you using the wrong method in which case we really need to find the right method. The problem could be elsewhere in your script as well. Right now I just don't have enough information to assist you. vujsa

Alright so my client wants me to create a Flash guestbook. The user would be asked to enter in their name, email and their comment and that would be sendAndLoaded through GBaddPost.php which would obtain the xml file passed through by the flash program via POST method. The PHP file would then open up the guestbook.xml file, write in the new guestbook.xml content using the obtained xml info and then close the file. The method I'm currently using to obtain that data is via file_get_contents("php://input"); Now ASTAHOST's apache program has no problems with this but HOSTWAY.com does. I don't know if It's because of the version difference (Astahost=v4.3? and Hostway=4.0) Now I know the Actionscript works because When i tried this same flash guestbook in ASTAHOST and 100WEBSPACE both they work. However, in HOSTWAY, it doesn't work.

Apparently the function you're using wasn't added until PHP 4.3 Check php.net and search for the function and you should get some info on it that might help. I also found this article that could be of some use, since you already have your script written, you might be able to use this technique. Hope this helps. Good luck to you. Maybe some of the advanced users here at the forums will have more to offer you. I haven't gotten too far in manipulating files with php. Still on my TODO list. http://www.php-mag.net/magphpde/magphpde_a...,nodeid,21.html

Yes, file_get_contents() was added to PHP 4.3. Needless to say, what you need to do is write the part in the old fashioned way where you read the data to a string. Basically implementing file_get_contents yourself. By the wasy, if your luck is anything like mine, you implement the function today and tomorrow they'll upgrade to PHP 4.3...

How about shedding some code, it'd be easier to understand what you're trying. Since I see you trying to use php://input I guess what you're wanting to do is grab the $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA (so try this instead) other than that, what you are trying to do requires PHP 4.30. Cheers, MC

Letting Users Add Mysql Data With Php
(1) I'm curious as to the best methods of letting users submit data to a MySQL database, displaying
that data, and removing any unwanted tags etc. from it. Currently, there's a handful of PHP
functions that I know of to help with this: mysql_real_escape_string() - perhaps the best known
and most commonly used function, it should be used in pretty much any MySQL query. It escapes
characters that have SQL significance. QUOTE(php.net) ...which prepends backslashes to the
following characters: \x00, \n, \r, \, ', " and \x1a I like to think I made a pretty....
Getting Certain Parts Of A Record

Sql Injection Prevention (passing Numerical Data Across Pages).

Proper Way To Grab User Data?
