I am unable to use session variables on a page other than the one where they are set, IOW they act like non-session variables. I have found a similar question posted in half a dozen other similar fora, but the answer in those other cases always turns out not to apply. Here are my files: sess1.php <?php session_start(); session_regi...
I found a function in a PHP page that calculates the number of miles between 2 points, but it's faulty. It's supposed to work with google maps, but the difference in distances are ranging from 1.3 to 1.65 times further in google maps(which is more accurate). Here's the function: $M = 69.09 * rad2deg(acos(sin(deg2rad($lat1)) * sin(deg2...

In PHP you can use square brackets on an element to access attributes: $node = /* SimpleXMLElement */ $id = $node['id']; What's weird is that $id isn't a string, It's another SimpleXMLElement. Why isn't it a string? I find myself using strval() all over the place on this. How are the square brackets working? Can I do that with my own...

I'm wonder how people are kicking people out or blocking access to a site when you want to do an upgrade and you have users that are logged in.
