change that line to:

apparently explode returns its value by reference.

post what is on line 97 of your file. There is nothing in my code that is passed by reference.

The indentation will be a little more tricky but i'll see what i can do.

I am not sure what the point of $x is in that function besides being a counter. But this should solve your recursion issue.

Just be very careful when working with values passed in the GET & POST arrays . Its extremely easy for them to be modified by the user and you have to be fully aware of this.

The problem you're having is $_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'] is an actual filename. your destination is a directory without a file name. its trying to create a file named "uploads", which is a valid...

Well you're definitely right. regex is definitely slower when compared to str_replace especially as the length of the string increases. Although return str_replace(' ', '', $str); is not the same as...

Do you possibly have cookies disabled in FF and have php configured to use a cookie to store the session id?

If it solves your problem how you need it to solve your problem then its a solution. There is always more than one way to skin a cat.

That is because your column type is set to datetime or timestamp not certain which one actually produces that as I don't use the mysql datetime or timestamp data type.

To store a unix timestamp...

Store a UNIX Timestamp (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time) in that mysql column.

GAH! Just realized how old this thread is, how did it get resurrected?!:-O

For starters, functions in loops should be avoided whenever possible. e.g. for($i = 0; $i < strlen($s); $i++) also, you're doing a lot of extra work here.

I would suggest something like this:
...

header( 'refresh: 5; url=http://www.example.com' );

Can also be a url relative to your site, like: home.php etc.

But the notices are important, I always like to develop with error_reporting( E_ALL | E_STRICT ); In a production environment I NEVER leave error reporting enabled.

The problem with the notices...

It's the escaping in your html in this area

That is a Notice not an error, what it is telling you, is that your code is checking the value of $_SESSION['uid'] even though the array key 'uid' does not exist in the $_SESSION array.

SimpleXML as it will eliminate having to first load the contents with either cURL or file_get_contents and then having to load that data into SimpleXML or the DOM to then parse the XML.
