Comment on file_exists doesn’t work for me by bretto36

Is this still an issue for you? Have you checked openbasedir restrictions. Generally you can’t access things outside the root directory unless oyu open it up in httpd.conf

Trying to implement a function that depends on file_exists in a drupal setup. I am checking for an image file which has a path like ‘/sites/all/themes/themename/images/img_var0.gif’. The strange thing is, when i run for file_exists from the local directory (meaning sitting in images directory), it returns true, but when run from the root, it returns false. Also checked on the safe mode restrictions using phpinfo(), it is set to OFF. The directories as well as the files have read permissions for all.

Don’t know where i am going wrong.

Why not have this on top of your form code instead?

/* Replace on submit into MySQL database */
$formfield = ereg_replace(‘”‘,”"”, $formfield);

This comment applies to a solution you posted November 1, 2007 Titled “Forms submitting twice in Firefox”. I send my eternal gratitude for your post. I have spent hours and hours, days! trying to figure out odd behavior in a web survey. The symptoms were different depending on whether starting a new survey, or “next”ing through, but I now know they were ALL caused by having a src=”" within a tag. Thank you, thank you!! bretto36 for your generous sharing of knowledge!!!

Comment on Firefox Losing Session Variables on Redirect by Dan

Thanks for posting this, you are a God amongst Men!!!! I had to deal with this issue today. I did notice one thing that lead to different solution for me. After the first redirect to http://www.website.com the session variable was lost. However after the second redirect to http://www.website.com the session variable held its value. So as a solution i force an initial redirect to http://www.website.com before the user can input any data. I have tested it out with off site credit transactions and it seems to do the trick.

Generally with redirecting to a off site credit card payment system and back as long as it was the same main domain no change to www then the session variables would remain active. I will do some testing of this. Thanks for the comment Chris

Firefox also sees a redirect from http://www.host.com/page1.html to http://www.host.com/page2.html as a totally separate site. the solution as posted here is to only use relative links so “page2.html” really sucks for off site credit card payments when they redirect you back to the original site. I still consider this a bug.
