Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Programming Discussion : AJax & PHP problem

[mr5]

Hello,

I am trying to write a check multi domain script by Ajax & PHP. User will input multi domains in seperate line by enter after each domain.

However, my PHP script backend can not split domains user inputed. You can test my AJAX at: http://www.liemonline.com/ajax

My getdata.php code:

<?
print_r(explode("\r\n", $_GET['domain']));
?>

Hope someone can help me. Thank you.

Regards,

Try splitting on just "\n" instead of "\r\n".

not a good idea to have a textbox and ask users to enter domains in separate line. What if a user enters them all in a single line? would your script deal with this situation or it just throws error?

You are not URL encoding the data that is being sent to your script.

When your user enters two domains, your script is sending them as

domain?=foo.combar.com

because your script is not translating the \r\n into their url entities; even if it did, on the other end you would have to urldecode the query string and then run the explode on it.

Its just easier to delimit the user input with a character. So in your script with the form, replace the \r\n with | or ; or something else.

Hello,

Thank you very much. I decided to split the data by: split() function (I found that Javascript works well with \r\n) before send to PHP
