I am currenly trying to get my form validation correct and somehow CI is throwing away some of the '\' if i use it in the input fields. Below is the debugging code i used to pinpoint the problem.

Hello fellow CI code crunchers!

I decided to start my venture down the CI-path with a little fix for, as I'd call it, complete custom 404 controller page.

I searched the forum for how I should make a custom 404-page. It seemed like I should extend the Exceptions-class. The only problem is that the 404-event triggers before all the base classes are loaded: I have no controller, database etc.

I think the reason for this is based on security: not letting an ill typed URL somehow get run by CI as a normal controller.

But I realized that by extending not the Exceptions class but rather the Router-class, I was able to 'fool' CI to use one of my own controller, and let the system load as normal.

All I did was copy the '_validate_segments'-function and slightly modify it to return the custom controller I wanted to use as 404-page. My custom 404-controller is called 'custom404controller' and located in my application/controllers/-folder, like any other controller.

A word of advice: before you use this, test it thoroughly! Also make sure that by using this way of handling 404-errors, you do not compromise the security of you application. Also,this is for version 1.5.3 of CI.

This is the extension that seemed to do the trick:

I have been trying to resolve two CI issues:

Validation.php -> all TRUE alpha-based functions are ASCII only
Input.php -> xss_clean silently returns an empty $_POST value if entry string is not ASCII

Both problems are already documented in the forums. Unless hacked, these core functions are not usable for anyone outside the basic ASCII geography (not even the ISO-8859-1 folks).

I have attempted, as a start, to change the locale and alter the relevant regexp patterns in Validation.php, but it fails. It seems, to me, that PCRE does not support the extended ASCII charsets despite first checking and then setting the correct locale. I hope someone may be able to assist with this to help resolve these issues. Some example snippets:

Hello everyone,
i am totally new to CI.
I watched the video tutorials, which are impressive. doing the tutorials step by step on my own server seem to get me some problems already tho.

Forgive me if this has been discussed. Some of the terms are used in so many ways that I'm finding searching to be problematic.

I'm building a shopping cart that has to authorize a credit card against a pre-determined Web Payment Service (EFSNet, to be precise). I have 3 options: SOAP, XML, or Name/Value Pairs. The server I'm going to be running on has PHP 4, so I can't use PHP's SOAP Extension. I've heard of nuSOAP but I don't know if it's still being developed and I'm not sure its secure enough to be sending credit card data back and forth with. Thoughts on that?

XML seems promising and I was wondering if there's a way to somehow use the XML-RPC Class to send and receive XML files, perhaps by modifying the code somehow? The only example EFSNet provides (they're clearly a MS shop) uses COM:

Quote:This sample demonstrates an XML POST using the XMLHttpRequest object
found in Microsoft® XML Parser (MSXML), version 3.0 or higher. The example
provided is written in Visual Basic; however, this can be used from any language
that supports Component Object Model (COM) objects.

DOMDocument XML POST Example

Code:

‘ Note: Add project reference to Microsoft XML, Ver 3.0 or 4.0
Dim sXML As String
Dim iDocument As New MSXML2.DOMDocument
Dim iHttp As New MSXML2.XMLHTTP30
sXML = "<Request StoreID='myStoreID'" & _
" StoreKey='myStoreKey'" & _
" ApplicationID='EFSnet samples 1.0'>" & _
"<SystemCheck/>" & _
"</Request>"
iHttp.Open "POST", "https://test.testserver.com/test.dll",
False
iDocument.async = False
iDocument.loadXML sXML
iHttp.Send iDocument
MsgBox iHttp.responseText

Hi, all. I'm not long ago begin to use CodeIgniter, it's nice and light for understanding framework.
But when I face to some troubles when I try to work with postgresql.
I edited database.php as needed and when loading database library thereis no errors i.e. connecting and selecting database passed successfully, but such construction
