Summary of frequently asked questions for php beginners

1. Variables get, post, and session cannot be passed. In the latest PHP version, automatic global variables are turned off, so to get the submitted variables from the previous page, you must use $_get['foo'], $_post['foo' ],$_session['foo'] to get. Of course, you can also modify the automatic global variables to on (php.ini changed to register_globals = on); considering compatibility, it is better to force yourself to become familiar with the new writing method. 2. When apache uses the get method to pass Chinese parameters under win, an error will occur: test.php ?a=Hello&b=Hello Passing parameters will cause an internal error ? Solution:
3. The session under win does not work properly php .ini default session.save_path = /tmp This is obviously a configuration under Linux. PHP under win cannot read and write the session file, causing the session to be unusable. Just change it to an absolute path, for example, session.save_path = c:windows emp 4, display error message When php.ini's display_errors = on and error_reporting = e_all, all errors and prompts will be displayed. It is best to turn it on during debugging for error correction. If you use the previous php writing method, most of the error messages are about undefined variables. There will be a prompt when a variable is called before it is assigned a value. The solution is to detect or shield it. For example, to display $foo, you can if(isset($foo)) echo $foo or echo @$foo 5. Mail() cannot send emails under win Sendmail configured under Linux can be sent. Under Win, you need to call the smtp server to send emails. Modify the smtp = ip of php.ini //ip is an smtp server without verification function (hard to find online) php The best solution for sending emails is to use socket to send directly to the other party's email server without forwarding the server. 6. If the password is not set for the initial installation of mysql, you should use update mysql.user set password="yourpassword" where user="root" to change the password 7,header already sent This error often occurs when using headers. Possible reasons: pring or echo before using headers. There is a blank line in front of your current file. You may have included a file with a blank line at the end of the file or the output will also appear like this. mistake. ! 8, no change after changing php .ini Restart the web server, such as iis, apache, etc., and then the latest settings will be applied. 9, PHP is installed on 00 (I would like to ask experts for advice on how to install isapi) The php isapi.dll of php seems to conflict with 00 and can only be installed in cgi mode. Step 1: First install an installation program under www.php .net. I installed: php -..-installer.exe. You can also find the latest version and make sure before installing php -..-installer.exe. Your iis6.0 is started and can be accessed. After installation, go to the default website-->application configuration. Step 2: Click web service extension --> New web service extension. Step 3: Extension-->php, then add Step 4: Find the path to php .exe and add it. Step Five: Confirm and that’s it! Step 6: Select the php service extension and click Allow. 10. Sometimes the sql statement does not work and the database operation fails. The easiest way to debug is to echo the sql sentence and see if the value of the variable can be obtained. 11. The difference between include and require There is not much difference between the two. If the file to be included does not exist, include prompts notice, and then continues to execute the following statements. require prompts a fatal error and exits. According to tests, under the win platform, they are included first and then executed, so it is best not to have include or require statements in the included files, which will cause directory confusion. Maybe the situation is different under *nux, I haven't tested it yet. If you do not want a file to be included multiple times, you can use include_once or require_once## to read and write document data.

To merge two PHP arrays and keep unique values, there are two main methods. 1. For index arrays or only deduplication, use array_merge and array_unique combinations: first merge array_merge($array1,$array2) and then use array_unique() to deduplicate them to finally get a new array containing all unique values; 2. For associative arrays and want to retain key-value pairs in the first array, use the operator: $result=$array1 $array2, which will ensure that the keys in the first array will not be overwritten by the second array. These two methods are applicable to different scenarios, depending on whether the key name is retained or only the focus is on

To determine the strength of the password, it is necessary to combine regular and logical processing. The basic requirements include: 1. The length is no less than 8 digits; 2. At least containing lowercase letters, uppercase letters, and numbers; 3. Special character restrictions can be added; in terms of advanced aspects, continuous duplication of characters and incremental/decreasing sequences need to be avoided, which requires PHP function detection; at the same time, blacklists should be introduced to filter common weak passwords such as password and 123456; finally it is recommended to combine the zxcvbn library to improve the evaluation accuracy.

To safely handle PHP file uploads, you need to verify the source and type, control the file name and path, set server restrictions, and process media files twice. 1. Verify the upload source to prevent CSRF through token and detect the real MIME type through finfo_file using whitelist control; 2. Rename the file to a random string and determine the extension to store it in a non-Web directory according to the detection type; 3. PHP configuration limits the upload size and temporary directory Nginx/Apache prohibits access to the upload directory; 4. The GD library resaves the pictures to clear potential malicious data.

Common problems and solutions for PHP variable scope include: 1. The global variable cannot be accessed within the function, and it needs to be passed in using the global keyword or parameter; 2. The static variable is declared with static, and it is only initialized once and the value is maintained between multiple calls; 3. Hyperglobal variables such as $_GET and $_POST can be used directly in any scope, but you need to pay attention to safe filtering; 4. Anonymous functions need to introduce parent scope variables through the use keyword, and when modifying external variables, you need to pass a reference. Mastering these rules can help avoid errors and improve code stability.

There are three common methods for PHP comment code: 1. Use // or # to block one line of code, and it is recommended to use //; 2. Use /.../ to wrap code blocks with multiple lines, which cannot be nested but can be crossed; 3. Combination skills comments such as using /if(){}/ to control logic blocks, or to improve efficiency with editor shortcut keys, you should pay attention to closing symbols and avoid nesting when using them.

The key to writing PHP comments is to clarify the purpose and specifications. Comments should explain "why" rather than "what was done", avoiding redundancy or too simplicity. 1. Use a unified format, such as docblock (/*/) for class and method descriptions to improve readability and tool compatibility; 2. Emphasize the reasons behind the logic, such as why JS jumps need to be output manually; 3. Add an overview description before complex code, describe the process in steps, and help understand the overall idea; 4. Use TODO and FIXME rationally to mark to-do items and problems to facilitate subsequent tracking and collaboration. Good annotations can reduce communication costs and improve code maintenance efficiency.

There are two ways to create an array in PHP: use the array() function or use brackets []. 1. Using the array() function is a traditional way, with good compatibility. Define index arrays such as $fruits=array("apple","banana","orange"), and associative arrays such as $user=array("name"=>"John","age"=>25); 2. Using [] is a simpler way to support since PHP5.4, such as $color
