Hi,

I have created a code like this …. and I want to put in between a text depending on a parameter. In particular I want to insert the username of a site you login to ( for example if I enter to hakcthis I want the html to insert “Geekerd”. Thank you for your reply.

Hi,

You said parameter, i will suppose you mean GET parameter as for the rest sorry but i didn’t understand it, something like that will do the job
<?php if(isset($_GET['username'])) { echo "<em>" . $_GET['username'] . "</em>"; } ?>

Ops for some reasons [‘username’] doesn’t appear after the $_GETs :p

@tlotr: Yes, @roun512’s code does work. However, how much that code is compatible with @Geekerd’s idea is really up to his knowledge.

Hi @tlotr,

Yes my code works but the [ ‘name’ ] without spaces is not appearing (BBcode Problem) after the $_GETs :)

and @freewind1012, i didn’t understand the rest of the OP post :) but maybe he wants something like this :/

<?php  
if(isset($_GET[ 'name' ])) {  
    if($_GET[ 'name' ] == 'hackthis') {  
        echo "<em>Geekard</em>";  
    }  
}  
?>

I really appreciate your response. I’ll try to be more clear ( I am not English and so I have some problems to explain myself ).

And I want the code to write the name of the person who login in between . So, if someone else ( Gigio fro example ), log in I want the code to write “Gigio”. I do not know hot to insert a code that make the page make this. I hope it is more clear.

Aah, now i understand.

That can be done Using sessions in PHP, for eample:

<em><font color = "40E0D0"><?=$_SESSION[ 'username' ];?></font></em>

@Geekerd: Yeah, @roun512’s method is correct: using $_SESSION to display username. I assume that you are using PHP as server-side language, right? If you want to do that, make sure that you know about session and its built-in functions.

Can I also add that ANY user supplied data which is either stored in a database or output to page really needs to be cleaned to avoid SQLi and XSS injections.
