Php variables

variables means who can store the value and in further execution we can change the value means varying the value.

In c and C++ we normally declare variable :


datatype name of variable;

int c ;



:- Here datatype means whatever the value you will assign to c that is depend on the datatype means int can accept only integer values so you can not assign value with fraction part in c

ex c=9.7 that is wrong


but in php the syntax is

$name of your variable ;

for example : $a ;

$a="test";

or

$a = 8.9;

In the example above, you see that you do not have to tell PHP which data type the variable is.

PHP automatically converts the variable to the correct data type, depending on its value.

In a strongly typed programming language, you have to declare (define) the type and name of the variable before using it. thats why

PHP is a Loosely Typed Language.

Use of indexOf and charAt in javascript

indexOf(): The indexOf() method returns the position of the first occurrence of a specified value in a string. This method returns -1 if the value to search for never occurs. example :  <script type="text/javascript"> var str="Hello world!"; document.write(str.indexOf("d") + "<br />"); document.write(str.indexOf("WORLD") + "<br />"); document.write(str.indexOf("world")); </script> Output : 10 -1 6 charAt() The charAt() method returns the character at the specified index in a string. The index of the first character is 0, and the index of the last character in a string called "txt", is txt.length-1 <script type="text/javascript"> var str = "Hello world!"; document.write("First character: " + str.charAt(0) + "<br />"); document.write("Last character: " + str.charAt(str.l...

Find extension of file in Php

In our scripting sometimes we need to upload such documents , at that time there should be a validation for proper file. For example in your system suppose there is a field for image upload , that is obvious in that field only image formats are allowed (jpg,jpeg,png,gif etc.). At that time you have to give a validation on that field. In Php to find the extension and validation here is your code :  <?php                     $image = $_FILES["file"]["name"];    // to fetch the file name             $n1=strripos($image,".");                     // to find the last position of "."             $v1 =substr($image,$n1);                  ...
