Need Advice
« on: May 23, 2010, 09:05:11 PM »
Hi everyone,
I'm just looking for some advice. The situation is I'm doing a course in php and my final project is due in 2 days. I've done most of the work myself but at this stage my head is about to explode and I need help from someone who actually knows what they are doing. Should I hire someone to fix the mess that is my simple php website? If so, how much should I charge and where is the best place to get help fast? Would appreciate some advice, as my time is running out fast, and I ain't gonna pass if I don't fix the problems I've got.
Problems
1. Built a shopping cart and a cms system from tutorials but they have different login systems that I can't seem to merge.
2. Need to prevent html and sql injections.
3. Need to put in regular expressions on all my forms to take in only the correct type of information.
These are probably easy problems tio fix but I just feel burnt out  and need help. :shy:

You want to pay someone to do your homework? That just is begging for trouble

Why didn't you think about this before making them? >.< Well, okay, what kind of login systems does each use? Different hashes?

Need to prevent html and sql injections.
That should be pretty easy, just google 'sanitizing inputs php'

Need to put in regular expressions on all my forms to take in only the correct type of information.
Again, google that or visit http://regexlib.com/ or http://www.regular-expressions.info/examples.html

Yeah, thanks for the tips, just freaking out a bit I guess. I don't do pressure very well and my favourite cat got killed by a car this month and it's just so hard to concentrate on stupid php when your best friend is gone in an instant.  :(
