Documentation of server behavior

I have all the books of David Powers and they are very good. However, they have a fall for the amateur webmaster - they all get so far along the line before I forget all about Dreamweaver and Drupal, turn the system of Zend and Wordpress or some other exotic and / or expensive piece of kit.

.

Learn one of these is much harder that learning Dreamweaver, so before that Dreamweaver is cast scrap could someone with a lot of supply right knowledge a fully commented set of Dreamweaver server behaviors, so that people like me can work out where to put the code form validation on the server side?

Can I use javascript, but it is not the safest way of doing things.

For example, where you would put code to verify that the "incometype" field has a value and has no destructive code in it in this behavior, by insertion of a single record with a single field in a MySQL table:

:

<? PHP

If (! function_exists ("GetSQLValueString")) {}

function GetSQLValueString ($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "")

{

If (via PHP_VERSION < 6) {}

$theValue = get_magic_quotes_gpc()? stripslashes ($TheValue): $theValue;

}

$theValue = function_exists ("mysql_real_escape_string")? mysql_real_escape_string ($TheValue): mysql_escape_string ($theValue);

Switch ($theType) {}

case 'text ':

$theValue = ($theValue! = "")? « " ». $theValue. "" "": "NULL";

break;

case "long":

case "int":

$theValue = ($theValue! = "")? intval ($TheValue): 'NULL ';

break;

case "double":

$theValue = ($theValue! = "")? doubleVal ($TheValue): 'NULL ';

break;

case "date":

$theValue = ($theValue! = "")? « " ». $theValue. "" "": "NULL";

break;

case "set":

$theValue = ($theValue! = "")? $theDefinedValue: $theNotDefinedValue;

break;

}

Return $theValue;

}

}

$editFormAction = $_SERVER ['PHP_SELF'];

If (isset {}

$editFormAction. = « ? ». htmlentities($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);

}

If ((isset($_POST["MM_insert"])) & & ($_POST ["MM_insert"] == "codes_in")) {}

$insertSQL = sprintf ("INSERT INTO incometype (incometype) VALUES (%s)", ")

GetSQLValueString ($_POST ['incometype'], "text"));

@mysql_select_db ($database_dummywrite, $dummywrite);

$Result1 = mysql_query ($insertSQL, $dummywrite) or die (mysql_error ());

$insertGoTo = "cash_in_codes.php";

If (isset {}

$insertGoTo. = (strpos ($insertGoTo, '?'))? « & » : « ? » ;

$insertGoTo. = $_SERVER ['QUERY_STRING'];

}

header (sprintf ("location: %s", $insertGoTo));

}

No price for one who does, except my eternal gratitude!

Don't know which of my books you have, but Dreamweaver 8, CS3 and CS4 spend a lot of time dissecting the server behaviors. My CS5 book not only devotes a chapter (of 13) of server behaviors, mainly because they are obsolete and unsuitable for production sites. As this book was published by Adobe Press, it is a pretty strong indication that Adobe would also have users away from server behaviors and start writing their own code or use a third-party solution like WordPress or Zend Framework.

However, to answer your question, the place to insert your validation on the server side is here:

If ((isset($_POST["MM_insert"])) & ($_POST ["MM_insert"] == "codes_in")) {}

Check the value of $_POST ['incometype'] here

If it is not valid, wrap the rest of the code in a conditional statement

to avoid running the INSERT query

$insertSQL = sprintf ("INSERT INTO incometype (incometype) VALUES (%s)", ")

GetSQLValueString ($_POST ['incometype'], "text"));

In addition, if you are interested in learning how to better understand PHP outside the environment of Dreamweaver, you can check my PHP Solutions, 2nd edition.

  • How can I download the server behavior extensions?

    How can I download the server behavior extensions?

    the page will have to be carried out has been an HTML page.

    You cannot use the old panels of database server & PHP on ordinary HTML files.  They need to be saved as .php files to analyze the code on the server side.

    If your remote & local test server uses PHP 5.5 or higher, I do not recommend using panels of database server & deprecated.  The code is incompatible, obsolete & non-secure.

    Further, you should be manually coding with (improved) MySQLi or PDO.

  • Server behavior select list does not

    I was finally able to find my CC Dreamweaver server behaviors after losing nearly 2 weeks of productivity. Adobe really dropped the ball on the removal of this widely used feature. In any case, now that I have this feature back all my work server behavior EXCEPT my behavior select dynamic list that has worked very well in Dreamweaver CS5.5. Everything I do is a client code of reading a table customers in a MySQL database and using this code to a code from the customer table to display all the codes/descriptions, highlighting what is the code for the current customer. On this update form the user can then select a new code that will update the customer record in the customer table. It's pretty simple and I know how do it. However, it does not work in Dreamweaver CC. The only difference in my CS5.5 version and the new version of CC, it is that I do my sensitive site, <! doctype html >, bootstrap.css and www.w3schools.com/lib/w3.css. That none should make a difference. All my other server (text, radio button) behavior work fine in Dreamweaver CC. HELP!

    The server behaviors have been removed for a good reason. Does not work the code they generate in PHP 7, which is scheduled to be released next week. Or it will work in many sites running PHP 5.5 or 5.6 because some hosts have disabled the original functions of mysql in PHP.

    You can make a strong argument for Adobe update server behaviors to work with MySQLi or PDO (a lot of people already have), but you are living on borrowed time if you continue to rely on the old server behaviors. Even if Adobe has created versions updates tomorrow, server behaviors, you will still need to recode all of your pages because the code in the server behaviors cannot be easily replaced.

  • Adobe Extension Manager does not install server behaviors WebAssist MySQLi

    Recently, I upgraded my copy of Dreamweaver Dreamweaver CC. Now, I am trying to download WebAssist MySQLi server behaviors, their latest version for CC I have re-uploaded today. I also installed the latest version of Adobe Extension Manager CC. However, the installation fails with the message that the extension needs Dreamweaver 9 or a later version.

    I see that others have had problems with extensions and DW CC, but responses do not really help this problem.

    Adobe has decided to stop the extensions Manager, it no longer works, from 2015 CC and moving forward: Adobe Exchange

    You can always get EM that will work, DMXZone has a free one that seems to work fine with most third-party extensions.

    If you have PCOC 2015 (go to help > about Dreamweaver to check), you will need a third party EM.

  • the + sign in my server behavior is gray, unable to connect to the database [subject edited by Moderator]

    I am trying to connect to my database, the + sign in my server behavior is gray, impossible to click on so that I can continue my connection to my database and get the answer "unidentified error" when I try to use binding, please help me solve this problem

    use dreamweaverCS6

    Message edited by moderator for clarity.

    Although the server behaviors are enabled in Dreamweaver CS6, they have been deprecated by Adobe and are more supported because the code is outdated and will not work in PHP 7, to be released in a couple of weeks.

    That said, the reason why you get "unidentified error" certainly means that you have not set your test server correctly.

    You forgot the most important part of the error message. "Output started at..." tells you where the production has started, guiding you to correct the error.

    The most common cause of this error is a space outside of an include file PHP tags. Most likely guilty is one or more new lines after the closing PHP tag in Old4thDB.php. Remove the closing tag PHP in this folder will be probably solved the problem.

    Another possible cause is using the BOM (byte order mark) on a PHP page. Make sure that the check box for the BOM is deselected in the Save dialog box.

  • How can I get activate server behaviors in Dreamweaver CC 2015?

    Hello everyone!

    I downloaded Dreamweaver CC 2015 two days ago and now I have Norman to connect to my database in MyPhpAdmin. I've seen tutorials, videos, discussion forums, and is not able to do. I found the file Deprecated_ServerBehaviorsPanel_Support - 1.1.0.zxp available in http://www.dmxzone.com/go/23171/enable-server-behaviors-in-dreamweaver-cc-2015/. But anyway, the Maneger Extension told me that the file has not been installed because I need a Dreamweaver version number from 12 to 16.

    I also read in some forum:

    Finally works on CC2015 - version 1.0.0

    But we need to reinstall everything. ((1) creative Cloud Set Up 2) Extension Manager 3) remove and download the ServerBehavior Extension (manually). (4) install the Extension using the extension manager

    Questions:

    (1) if I do that and I have reinstall my Dreamweaver, will be available again for me, if I have the trial version?

    (2) what is the meaning of ' I need to a Dreamweaver version number from 12 to 16? . "

    (3) someone knows how to fix this? im sure is not the only one who had this problem

    (4) I could really use Dreamweaver cc 2015. I'd rather have older versions. I tried to find it, but I can not downloaded. What someone has the installer for Cs4, cs5, cs6? my email is [email protected]

    Thanks a lot guys. #Respect

    Go to geckozone.org and download their extensions Manager, because the Adobe extensions Manager came at the end of the line and no longer supports DWCC2015!

    To install an extension, once you have installed the DMXZone EM, just choose the version of DW in the drop down and drag the .zxp to the window... Hey presto, it is installed!

    You can also buy some of their extensions while you are there because they are very good.

    Hi... I try to add the server behaviors panel in Dreamweaver cc, but I can't find the folder features disabled... I find the folder "server behavior"...

    I use windows 8.1... Please someone help me... Thank you!

    You can download the ZXP obsolete DMX Zone Server behaviors extension, but if you are working with PHP/MySQL, I do not recommend to use them for current or future projects.

    http://www.DMXzone.com/go/21842/enable-server-behaviors-and-data-bindings-panel-support-fo r-dreamweaver-cc.

    The obsolete server behaviors have been removed for some reason.  The links do not work on servers with PHP 5.5 or later version.  The code they produce is exceeded.

    A more long-term solution is to manually code in (improved) MySQLi or PDO.

    If it is not within your skill set yet, here are 2 commercial extensions that replace panels behaviors deprecated in DW.
