This detects screen resolution using javascript and makes it available to php by way of cookies.

Enforce loadig fresh script code for the external javascript files. Compatible with HTTP 1.0.

This is a simple PHP script that will show whether a certain port/socket of a certain computer is currently open/active.

This multiple-use PHP script will randomly generate content based on a randomly generated number.

This small snippet will not allow _POST requests from a 'foreign' domain. It relies on the HTTP_REFERER variable.

This function will reverse the affects of register_globals

Another pull from my growing-towards-beta CGI library: sgcgi_url_unescape().

Note the use strcpy, which is faster than the equivalent memmove()ing. To ensure 64-bit safety, I plan to rename this function and then conditionally compile it to point to either strcpy or a 64-bit-safe memmove() implementation of strcpy.

However, even though copy order isn't guaranteed for strcpy, on 16-bit and 32-bit systems, all known implementations copy byte-by-byte from lower addresses to higher addresses. Some 64-bit optimized compilers may copy 8-byte chunks, making the assumption of full linearity unstable at best.

I know it sounds like I'm justifying use of nonstandard code for convenience . . . *blush* . . . it's just something that putting in a -DPEDANTIC type of preprocessor flag could fix if broken, and its SO much faster!

Here's a little snippet I got from SitePoint that I now use all the time. Add the code below to the start of each script.

Basically, what this does is checks to see if magic_quotes_gpc() is enabled on the server, and if it is, then it gets rid of all the slashes that magic_quotes_gpc() adds to input from $_GET, $_POST and $_COOKIES globals.

It's a good snippet to use, because it negates the bad programming practices that having magic_quotes_gpc() lets you get away with, and means that you don't really on PHP to validate your input; you get to do it all yourself ;-)

A little function that does some basic checking for data input by a user. Should get rid of code injection ;-)

This function simply splits a file based on the splitter supplied and returns an array with the values. It's pretty much like the file() function. This script could be helpful in section editings.
