Javascript form validation
validateFormOnSubmit ( )
This is a main function that calls a series of subfunctions, each of which checks a single form element for compliance. If the element complies than sufunction returns an empty string. Otherwise it returns a message describing the error and highlight appropriate element with yellow.
function validateFormOnSubmit(theForm) {
var reason = "";
reason += validateUsername(theForm.username);
reason += validatePassword(theForm.pwd);
reason += validateEmail(theForm.email);
reason += validatePhone(theForm.phone);
reason += validateEmpty(theForm.from);
if (reason != "") {
alert("Some fields need correction:\n" + reason);
return false;
}
return true;
}
validateEmpty ( )
The function below checks if a required field has been left empty. If the required field is blank, we return the error string to the main function. If it’s not blank, the function returns an empty string.
function validateEmpty(fld) {
var error = "";
if (fld.value.length == 0) {
fld.style.background = 'Yellow';
error = "The required field has not been filled in.\n"
} else {
fld.style.background = 'White';
}
return error;
}
validateUsername ( )
The function below checks if the user entered anything at all in the username field. If it’s not blank, we check the length of the string and permit only usernames that are between 5 and 15 characters. Next, we use the JavaScript regular expression /\W/ to forbid illegal characters from appearing in usernames. We want to allow only letters, numbers and underscopes.
function validateUsername(fld) {
var error = "";
var illegalChars = /\W/; // allow letters, numbers, and underscores
if (fld.value == "") {
fld.style.background = 'Yellow';
error = "You didn't enter a username.\n";
} else if ((fld.value.length < 5) || (fld.value.length > 15)) {
fld.style.background = 'Yellow';
error = "The username is the wrong length.\n";
} else if (illegalChars.test(fld.value)) {
fld.style.background = 'Yellow';
error = "The username contains illegal characters.\n";
} else {
fld.style.background = 'White';
}
return error;
}
validatePassword ( )
The function below checks the password field for blankness and allow only letters and numbers - no underscopes this time. So we should use a new regular expression to forbid underscopes. This one /[\W_]/ allow only letters and numbers. Next, we want to permit only passwords that contain letters and at least one numeral. For that we use the seacrh() method and two more regular expressions: /(a-z)+/ and /(0-9)/.
function validatePassword(fld) {
var error = "";
var illegalChars = /[\W_]/; // allow only letters and numbers
if (fld.value == "") {
fld.style.background = 'Yellow';
error = "You didn't enter a password.\n";
} else if ((fld.value.length < 7) || (fld.value.length > 15)) {
error = "The password is the wrong length. \n";
fld.style.background = 'Yellow';
} else if (illegalChars.test(fld.value)) {
error = "The password contains illegal characters.\n";
fld.style.background = 'Yellow';
} else if (!((fld.value.search(/(a-z)+/)) && (fld.value.search(/(0-9)+/)))) {
error = "The password must contain at least one numeral.\n";
fld.style.background = 'Yellow';
} else {
fld.style.background = 'White';
}
return error;
}
Next we want to see if the email address the user entered is real. This means that the input data must contain at least an @ sign and a dot (.). Also, the @ must not be the first character of the email address, and the last dot must at least be one character after the @ sign.
At first we check if the user entered anything at all in the email field. Next, we use regular expression and the test() method to check the field for a compliance. Also we will use trim() function that will trim leading whitespace off the string. This won’t be perfect validation — it is possible to slip not compliant addresses by it — but it's normally good enough.
var error = "";
var illegalChars = /[\W_]/; // allow only letters and numbers
if (fld.value == "") {
fld.style.background = 'Yellow';
error = "You didn't enter a password.\n";
} else if ((fld.value.length < 7) || (fld.value.length > 15)) {
error = "The password is the wrong length. \n";
fld.style.background = 'Yellow';
} else if (illegalChars.test(fld.value)) {
error = "The password contains illegal characters.\n";
fld.style.background = 'Yellow';
} else if (!((fld.value.search(/(a-z)+/)) && (fld.value.search(/(0-9)+/)))) {
error = "The password must contain at least one numeral.\n";

validateEmail ( )
Next we want to see if the email address the user entered is real. This means that the input data must contain at least an @ sign and a dot (.). Also, the @ must not be the first character of the email address, and the last dot must at least be one character after the @ sign.

This won’t be perfect validation — it is possible to slip not compliant addresses by it — but it's normally good enough.
function trim(s)
{
return s.replace(/^\s+|\s+$/, '');
}function validateEmail(fld) {
var error="";
var tfld = trim(fld.value); // value of field with whitespace trimmed off
var emailFilter = /^[^@]+@[^@.]+\.[^@]*\w\w$/ ;
var illegalChars= /[\(\)\<\>\,\;\:\\\"\[\]]/ ;

} else if (fld.value.match(illegalChars)) {
fld.style.background = 'Yellow';
error = "The email address contains illegal characters.\n";
} else {
fld.style.background = 'White';
}
return error;
}
The function below checks if the phone number is valid. At first we use regular expression and the replace() method to clear out any spacer characters. Next, we use the isNaN() function to check if the phone number contain only numbers. At last we check the length of the string and permit only phone numbers with 10 digits.
{
return s.replace(/^\s+|\s+$/, '');
}function validateEmail(fld) {
var error="";
var tfld = trim(fld.value); // value of field with whitespace trimmed off

} else {
fld.style.background = 'White';
}
return error;
}
validatePhone ( )
The function below checks if the phone number is valid. At first we use regular expression and the replace() method to clear out any spacer characters. Next, we use the isNaN() function to check if the phone number contain only numbers. At last we check the length of the string and permit only phone numbers with 10 digits.

Captcha using php
<form name=”form1″ method=”post” action=”form.php” “>
<table width=”342″ align=”center” cellspacing=”0″ bgcolor=”#D4D0C8″>
<tr> <td align=”center”><img src=”php_captcha.php”></td>
<td align=”center”> Please enter the string shown in the image in the form.<br>
</td><td align=”center”>
<input name=”number” type=”text”></td><td><input name=”Submit” type=”submit” value=”Submit”></td> </tr></table></form>
The <ima src=…> is given a page php_captcha.php. Lets create the page.
The following code use to create random numbers and this number are embedding with existing image file, the first line used to initiate session, which use to carry the user inputs.
<?php
session_start();
$RandomStr = md5(microtime());
$ResultStr = substr($RandomStr,0,5);
$NewImage =imagecreatefromjpeg(“img.jpg”);
?>The second line [md5 (microtime ())] use to generate the random string, and the resultant string is trim by using third line [substr], which returns the portion of string specified by the start and length parameters.
The function imagecreatefromjpeg (“img.jpg”) is use to create a image by existing image file and as back ground ,so that you need to give an image file path.
<?php $LineColor = imagecolorallocate($NewImage,233,239,239); $TextColor = imagecolorallocate($NewImage, 255, 255, 255); imageline($NewImage,1,1,40,40,$LineColor); imageline($NewImage,1,100,60,0,$LineColor); imagestring($NewImage, 5, 20, 10, $ResultStr, $TextColor); ?>After creation of back ground image, we generate some linear line, which is use to avoid the phrasing from random numbers, the respective lines are create by the function named imageline () and imagestring () use to draw a random string horizontally.
<?php $_SESSION['key'] = $ResultStr; ?>The resultant random number [trimmed one], carry through session especially for validation purpose.
<?php header(“Content-type: image/jpeg”); imagejpeg($NewImage); ?>Finally above two functions are uses to display/out put the image to browser. So we can just call the particular file by through image source path, it will display the final image.
<?php
if(isset($_REQUEST['Submit'])){
$key=substr($_SESSION['key'],0,5);
$number = $_REQUEST['number'];
if($number!=$key){
echo ‘ Validation string not valid! Please try again!’;}
else{
echo ‘ Your string is valid!’;}
}

Code for Building a .info File in drupal
As of Drupal 6, a .info file is required as part of a valid theme distribution. The
.info file contains a number of pieces of information intended to inform the system about the theme and to set configuration options. The syntax throughout this file is consistent, use key = value. Semicolons can be used to add comments or commentout options. In the event that optional values are not stated, the system will assume default values.
To get started, open up the .info file you created a short while ago and add
the following:First, a name key is required by the system. Note this is a human-readable value. Forour theme, this entry will appear as follows:
name = kajal
Next, let's add a description. This data will appear in Drupal's theme manager
alongside the theme name and screenshot. This key is optional but as it is very helpful, we're going to include some information here:
description = A simple theme for Drupal.
The core key is required to keep the system from disabling our theme due to
incompatibility.
core = 6.x
Add the engine key as follows (in the absence of this key, the system will assume this is a pure PHP theme):
engine = phptemplate
The regions key sets the regions available for block assignment. Note that this key is not necessary unless you wish to vary from the default set of regions. We've included the regions keys information in this example simply to show the variation in syntax that is required by this key. To set regions, use the following notation:
region[machine_readable_name] = human readable name, for example:
region[head] = Head
region[left] = Left Sidebar
region[right] = Right Sidebar
region[content] = Content
region[footer] = Footer
The .info file can be also used to enable the various theme configuration features, like the site mission, site name, logo, etc. To specify features use the syntax features[] = name of feature. In the absence of a contrary definition, the system will assume the presence of all the following:
features[] = logo
features[] = name
features[] = slogan
features[] = mission
features[] = node_user_picture
features[] = comment_user_picture
features[] = search
features[] = favicon
features[] = primary_links
features[] = secondary_links
Should you not want any of these features, simply delineate the ones you wish to see in the .info file and omit the ones you do not wish to see. As we want to enable all the default features, we need to add nothing to our .info file. In this fashion, the system will enable all the default features, above, giving our site administrator the widest number of configurations for Kajal.
With all the options above (and more), .info files can be quite lengthy. The
garland.info file (themes/garland/garland.info) for example, shows a relatively complex .info file. However, given our new theme's heavy reliance on default values, our .info file will be short and sweet:
name = Kajal
description = A simpletheme for Drupal.
core = 6.x
engine = phptemplate

Code for footer in Drupal.
Though the author only declared two regions, left and right, he includes the
footer region in the code. This provides us with a good example of the function chameleon_regions() in action. The function defines which regions will be available for the administrator to use for the assignment of blocks. In this case, only left and right are options for the administrator, despite the presence of the footer region in the code. Had the function chameleon_regions() been written so as to include 'footer' => t('footer'), then the region would be accessible to the administrator for block assignment. As it stands, however, the only output of the code below is the footer message, wrapped with a div.
if ($footer = variable_get('site_footer', '')) {
$output .= " <div id=\"footer\">$footer</div>\n";
}

}
Code for Title and Breadcrumb Trail in Drupal
The author places the title and breadcrumb together on the page and makes both subject to the appearance of the title; the title is also wrapped with the<h2> tag.
if ($title) {
$output .= theme("breadcrumb", drupal_get_breadcrumb());
$output .= "<h2>$title</h2>";
}
if ($title) {
$output .= theme("breadcrumb", drupal_get_breadcrumb());
$output .= "<h2>$title</h2>";
}
Code for side bar right in Drupal.
This snippet places the blocks designated for the right region into a table cell. Note the conditional statement; this allows the output to be hidden in the event that no blocks are assigned to the region. For styling, the table cell (td) is given an id name to reflect the placement (sidebar-right).
if ($show_blocks && !empty($blocks_right)) {
$output .= " <td id=\"sidebar-right\">$blocks_right</td>\n";
}
if ($show_blocks && !empty($blocks_right)) {
$output .= " <td id=\"sidebar-right\">$blocks_right</td>\n";
}
Code for side bar left in drupal
The following places the blocks designated for the left region into a table cell. Note the conditional statement; this allows the output to be hidden in the event that no blocks are assigned to the region. For styling, the table cell (td) is given an id name to reflect the placement (sidebar-left).
if ($show_blocks && !empty($blocks_left)) {
$output .= " <td id=\"sidebar-left\">$blocks_left</td>\n";
}
if ($show_blocks && !empty($blocks_left)) {
$output .= " <td id=\"sidebar-left\">$blocks_left</td>\n";
}
Code for primary and secondery links in Drupal
Chameleon combines the placement of the primary and secondary links, basically locking the secondary links into a subnavigation role. You don't have to group these two items together in this fashion, but it is one logical option. Note the snippet below. In both cases, the display of the links is conditional (depending on what is enabled by the administrator). If either one is enabled, then it will appear inside a div with the class navlinks. Additionally, to be able to style each set of links individually, both $primary_links and $secondary_links are provided with a unique class and id.
$primary_links = theme('links', menu_primary_links(), array('class' =>
'links', 'id' => 'navlist'));
$secondary_links = theme('links', menu_secondary_links(),
array('class' => 'links', 'id' => 'subnavlist'));
if (isset($primary_links) || isset($secondary_links)) {
$output .= ' <div>';
if (isset($primary_links)) {
$output .= $primary_links; }
if (isset($secondary_links)) {
$output .= $secondary_links; }
$output .= " </div>\n";
}
$primary_links = theme('links', menu_primary_links(), array('class' =>
'links', 'id' => 'navlist'));
$secondary_links = theme('links', menu_secondary_links(),
array('class' => 'links', 'id' => 'subnavlist'));
if (isset($primary_links) || isset($secondary_links)) {
$output .= ' <div>';
if (isset($primary_links)) {
$output .= $primary_links; }
if (isset($secondary_links)) {
$output .= $secondary_links; }
$output .= " </div>\n";
}
Code for siteslogan in Drupal
The following statement enables the site slogan to be toggled on or off, and wraps it with a div and a class for styling.
if (theme_get_setting('toggle_slogan')) {
$output .= " <div class=\"site-slogan\">". variable_get(
'site_slogan', '') ."</div>";
}
if (theme_get_setting('toggle_slogan')) {
$output .= " <div class=\"site-slogan\">". variable_get(
'site_slogan', '') ."</div>";
}
Code for sitename in Drupal
This snippet enables the site name to be toggled on or off, and wraps it with an H1 tag and a class.
if (theme_get_setting('toggle_name')) {
$output .= " <h1 class=\"site-name title\">". l(variable_
get('site_name', 'drupal'), ""). "</h1>";
}
if (theme_get_setting('toggle_name')) {
$output .= " <h1 class=\"site-name title\">". l(variable_
get('site_name', 'drupal'), ""). "</h1>";
}
Code for logo in Drupal
The following conditional statement enables the logo to be toggled on or off, wraps the image in an <a> tag and also sets the title and alt attributes.
if ($logo = theme_get_setting('logo')) {
$output .= " <a href=\"". url() ."\" title=\"". t('Home')
."\"><img src=\"$logo\" alt=\"". t('Home') ."\" /></a>";
}
if ($logo = theme_get_setting('logo')) {
$output .= " <a href=\"". url() ."\" title=\"". t('Home')
."\"><img src=\"$logo\" alt=\"". t('Home') ."\" /></a>";
}
Fav icon code in Drupal
The author deals with the setting of the favicon early in the document, prior to the output of the head of the document, and thereby makes the
tag available to the document head when it is output. All the other features, below, are placed in the body of the page where they will appear in the layout.
if (theme_get_setting('toggle_favicon')) { drupal_set_html_
head('<link rel="shortcut icon" href="'. check_url(theme_get_
setting('favicon')) .'" type="image/x-icon" />');}
Dynamically Styling Nodes
PHPTemplate provides a specific template for nodes—node.tpl.php. Using the
same principles of precedence we've seen throughout, you can provide alternative node templates to suit your needs. To provide a template for the blog node, for example, create node-blog.tpl.php; for the story node, node-story.tpl.php. In the absence of a more specific template, the system will apply the default node.tpl.php file. The table below shows the suggestions for the default system:

Dynamically Styling the Polls Module
The Polls module is the subject of a number of default templates. There are default suggestions available for all the key templates:
| Default template | Suggestion syntax |
| poll-results.tpl.php | poll-results-[block].tpl.php |
| poll-vote.tpl.php | poll-vote-[block].tpl.php |
| poll-bar.tpl.php | poll-bar-[block].tpl.php |
Dynamically Styling the Forum Module
The base templates of the forum module is forums.tpl.php. There are several
options open for suggestions for both forum containers and topics:
options open for suggestions for both forum containers and topics:
| Suggestion | Will apply to... |
| forums-topics.tpl.php | Forum topics |

The Importance of Themes in Drupal
The theme of your Drupal site is responsible for the visitor's first impression of the
site. Given the key role in shaping the presentation, a theme is arguably the most
influential piece of your Drupal installation.
While the default Drupal distribution includes a set of themes that will prove
sufficient for many users, I assume you are reading this book out of a desire to do
more— whether it be only to install additional themes and then modify them to suit
your needs, or whether you plan to build your own themes from scratch.
ThisIn order to grasp better some of the challenges (and opportunities) associated with
Drupal themes, it is useful to look at three concepts that impact the way you use the
system and the way in which you must plan your theme deployment.
