stristr error

I'm getting a very similar error as was mentioned in this thread

I upgraded to ibProArcade v2.7.2+ yesterday and I'm getting this error at the top of the index page of the arcade.

Warning: stristr() [function.stristr]: needle is not a string or an integer in [path]/arcade.php on line 5550

The arcade is functional and when I go to play the game, that error is gone. When I go to submit a high score, I see the same error, but on two consecutive lines. My high score is able to submit properly and there doesn't seem to be any noticeable issue... other than the glaring error at the top of the page.

Hey guys -

Is it possible for stangger5 and Hippy to get "joint custody" of this script since Mr Z is too busy? Having to sift through multiple threads with lengthy discussions about which code to use, what edits are best and why 2.7.1 is the version to use and not 2.72 (???!!!???) gets pretty confusing for us non-coders.

For a long time now, this script is has been officially dormant with new versions few and far between, while fixes (or not) abound in the forums. I understand the original author has expanded his family and his outside comimtments, and I'm not trying to criticize him in the least. Without him, this wouldn't be here in the first place.

That said, stangger5 and Hippy have been doing most of the heaving lifting on this script for some time now, and it seems it would be to everyone's benefit to give them equal access to the official releases along with Mr. Z to make this an equal partnership. The code could get back on track to be the awesome script it could be, instead of limping along and propped up with forum post file edits. They both have demonstrated a commitment to the script, and on their own sites have expanded its capabilities. Let's give 'em a chance to take this script to new heights instead of limiting their talents to covering it with bandaids.

Do I hear an "amen?"

[Hippy]

in my sig youll find a link to the post I made with everything youll needl I did the reading and sifting for you all..

If anyone stangger5 is the man..
when it come to this arcade..

2.7.2 does it now required PHP5?

my code in arcade.php

// remove any SQL-commands
	$sqlcomm = array();
	$sqlcomm[] = 'create';
	$sqlcomm[] = 'database';
	$sqlcomm[] = 'table';
	$sqlcomm[] = 'insert';
	$sqlcomm[] = 'update';
	$sqlcomm[] = 'rename';
	$sqlcomm[] = 'replace';
	$sqlcomm[] = 'select';
	$sqlcomm[] = 'handler';
	$sqlcomm[] = 'delete';
	$sqlcomm[] = 'truncate';
	$sqlcomm[] = 'drop';
	$sqlcomm[] = 'where';
	$sqlcomm[] = 'or';
	$sqlcomm[] = 'and';
	$sqlcomm[] = 'values';
	$sqlcomm[] = 'set';
	$sqlcomm[] = 'password';
	$sqlcomm[] = 'salt';
	$sqlcomm[] = 'concat';
	$sqlcomm[] = 'schema';
	// $value = recursive_str_ireplace($sqlcomm, '', $value);
	foreach ($sqlcomm AS $key => $needle) 
    { 
        $value = str_ireplace($needle, '', $value); 
    }

In case anyone cares, the new version of Arcade DOES require PHP5, str_ireplace is not available in PHP4.

here is where the confusion creeps in again

do we all use the arcade.php you linked to here or do we do the edits that the rest of the thread talks about as the 2 are completely different

[Hippy]

I did the eidtes in the attached file to make it easy for everyone

Hi,

in the forum it works fine. But in the VB admin section (main settings) these errors displayed :

Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in /usr/www/xxxx/arcade.php on line 897

Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in /usr/www/users/xxx/arcade.php on line 5386

Any Idea ?

Solved.

modify of arcade.php in admincp folder.
