Hi,

I have a site that is using php to take orders....when the customer gets to the step2 here: https://wind.securenet-server.net/~iroam/step2.php the text fields have this message :

 Notice: Undefined index: first_name in /home/iroam/public_html/step2.php on line 371 

The only changes i made to the config.php file was changing an email address.

please any advise would be great

regards
mike

remove E_NOTICE from your error_reporting method. It will then go away.

Also to more of a coding geek check check and check again. A good script should be bulky with checks.

I.E

PHP Code:


			
isset($_POST['first_name']) ?  $first_name = $_POST['first_name'] : '';
isset( $_POST['last_name']) ? $last_name = $_POST['last_name'] : '';

This then will kill off your NOTICE messages allowing you to code cleanly. Remember your script will always complain about variables that you perform an action on when there is no such variable.

Of course once you do something with your script thjat message will disapear because your variable at that stage exists. Prior to that there is no such variable as $_POST['first_name'] so when you try to perform some action upon it it will complain loudly.

Remember check check and check again. Its a sign of good coding.
