if(isset($_POST['submitted']))
{
  $errors = array(); // create an empty new variable.

  // check for a No Rujukan
if (empty ($_POST ['Rujukan']))  {
  $errors[] = '<b>No Rujukan</b>';
  } else {
    $Rujukan = trim($_POST['Rujukan']);
    }

  //check for a Tkh Minit JKTK.
if (empty ($_POST ['Tarikh'])) {

  if(empty($errors)) {

  require_once('mysql_connect.php');

  $query = "INSERT INTO jktk (Rujukan, Tarikh, Minit, Status)
            VALUES ('$Rujukan','$Tarikh','$Minit','$Status')";

  $result = @mysql_query($query);

I would validate user input with Javascript. If you validate it in PHP, you have to pull the data back to process it. Javascript will function on the viewers browser. Thus only the data will only pull back once it's validated. Less back & forth on your server/script.

[Valek]

The only downside to Javascript validation is knowing what to do if the user has Javascript disabled in their browser.

[yeney_fiza]

it their another way..

[grimpirate]

The function ctype_digit will check a string for all numbers. Even if you validate with javascript, ultimately, before you accept the data you have to check it on your server to ensure its safe if you plan to store it somewhere.

[Xuhybrid]

if (is_numeric($_POST['...']))
{
    
}

[grimpirate]

According to the OP he's posted only integers. is_numeric also allows floats, so I would have to advise against using it.

[garfinkle]

for php use

<?php
if(is_int())
{
   // do stuff
}
?>

for javascript use

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--

function checkForInt(value)
{
   if(!isNAN)
   {
   //do stuff, this will check for numeric values
   // do a substring check for a decimal to eliminate floats 
   }
}

-->
</script>

Hope this helps

[KidD1988]

http://php.net/manua....is-numeric.php

$string = 123124;

if(is_numeric($string))
{
    echo('$string only contains numbers');
}
else
{
    echo('$string only numbers are allowed');
}

hope it helps, if(NOT){ i will be willing to help u out some more}else { return false }

LoL didnt read the comments befor i did my post, but another comment would be to stay away from JS since it can be disabled in the browser, Javascript is bad for validation

You are just bloating your code with an unecessary clone of an existing function.

[mscobb]

In PHP you can use the regular expression preg_match to check if it is all numbers or not.

[Xuhybrid]

Yes true, but regex is significantly slower than is_numeric.

[CTphpnwb]

You can also force type:

if($x === (int)$x)
  echo "Yes!";
else
  echo "Bad data";

Good thought, but that's actually not going to work. At least, not with user input. Values from $_GET and $_POST will always come through as a string type, so because of the triple-equal, the types will never match and the comparison will always fail. That only works if you've already converted $x to an integer type, at which point you wouldn't need this snippet in the first place.

Using a double-equal wouldn't automatically fail on user input, but not right either. Because integer casting truncates floats and chops off strings after the first non-digit, if $x is something like 1.0 or "123acb" then the expression would still evaluate to true.

The best solution (unless you're one of the cursed souls who can't use PHP 5.2) would simply be to use the filter extension. That's what it's there for. You can check this with a simple call to filter_var(). It correctly handles all type of strings and floats and even returns the value as an the correct data type.

if (filter_var($x, FILTER_VALIDATE_INT) === false) {
   echo "Bad data - not an int";
} else {
   echo "OK - it's an integer";
}
