At0mic Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 I've got website running happily using XAMPP 1.4.15However, I desperately want to upgrade to the latest XAMP 1.6.1The problem I'm having after the upgrade is with a php page that lets me edit users. I can add users ok but if I try to edit them, all the cells in that row end up empty. There's no error message which makes it difficult to diagnose. At first, I thought the reason was due to the new XAMPP having MySQL 5.0.37. I upgraded XAMPP 1.4.15 to MySQL 5.0.37 and it still worked perfectly. There's something in XAMP 1.6.1 which isn't compatible with my php code. I even tried XAMP 1.6.1 with PHP 4.4.6 but I still had the same problem.Please helpI've attached the PHP code + MySQL database in case anyone would be so kind as to take a look at it.files2.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At0mic Posted May 10, 2007 Author Share Posted May 10, 2007 No it says "Updated Information Ok". However, when I go back to the main page, the entry I edited has empty fields. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mad_raven Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 Try this in the file adminpage_staff_edit.php $staff_first_name = addslashes(trim($_POST['staff_first_name'])); $staff_last_name = addslashes(trim($_POST['staff_last_name'])); $dept_id = addslashes(trim($_POST['dept_id'])); $staff_title = addslashes(trim($_POST['staff_title'])); $staff_email = addslashes(trim($_POST['staff_email'])); $staff_telephone = addslashes(trim($_POST['staff_telephone'])); if ( !empty($_POST['staff_image']) ) Let me know what happens.

At0mic Posted May 10, 2007 Author Share Posted May 10, 2007 Sorry mad_raven you posted while I was replying to MtK so I've only just read your reply.I tried your code and it works Thank you so much.Quick question, why did it work before in my old version of XAMPP? Is it due to modifications with the PHP scripting language? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it due to modifications with the PHP scripting language?A wild guess would be: $_POST,but wait for mad_raven's answer...

mad_raven Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 Sorry mad_raven you posted while I was replying to MtK so I've only just read your reply.I tried your code and it works Thank you so much.Quick question, why did it work before in my old version of XAMPP? Is it due to modifications with the PHP scripting language?There are two possible explainations.1: register_globals has been turned off in your php.ini file.2: The new version of XAMP turns it off when it runs.The register_globals feature automatically registers form field as variables. If the feature is turned off then you need to access the submitted form fields using the $_GET and $_POST super globals.Register_globals is turned off by default in the latest versions of php as it is a security risk having it turned on.
