When creating a PHP form that writes to a SQL database, what basic security steps should be implemented (coded)?

I have my own ideas, but I would like to hear what you guys have to say. Maybe we could create a list to include in the user info and memories.

Code samples are encouraged. :D

If you've ever edited a document in the word processor of docs.google.com and right clicked to select "copy" or "paste"; you've likely seen a message telling you that Firefox/Mozilla doesn't support the copy/cut/paste functionality. You can see a similar error message in LJ's post/comment web interface: copy and paste isn't allowed?

Well, it just ain't true! Our preferred browser simply has some security settings that must be modified to allow clipboard functions from Javascript. Just add the following to your user.js file:

user_pref("capability.policy.policynames", "allowclipboard");
user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.sites", "http://docs.google.com");
user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.Clipboard.cutcopy", "allAccess");
user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.Clipboard.paste", "allAccess");

The same technique can also be used to activate the copy/paste right click in the rich text editor on LJ, but I'll leave that as an exercise for the reader.

Qvacks.

I discover the TLS protocol.

I read in wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security) that in TLS for symmetric ciphers uses RC2, RC4, IDEA, DES, Triple DES, AES or Camellia encryption methods.

Can I define what symmetric ciphers my browser (Firefox, IE and etc)use for the HTTPS-connection?

Is some of them uses more often than others? Or any of these can uses for my connections?

Thanks you!

This may be a basic problem, but it's an extremely frustrating one.

There are times using my computer when it is just extremely lag-gy. One of the primary times is when I come back to it and wake it from the screen saver. Let me give you an example of a usual situation, as it happened just now.

I came in to the computer room to look up something on the computer. It came out of the screen saver, and was sitting on a FireFox screen. I went to file and New Window, and it took THIRTY-FIVE SECONDS to open a new FireFox window. Once it dragged itself through all that it's fine, but that's a terribly annoying problem to have.

Heh, I just went to the search function to find Hijack This, and it took 17 seconds for the Search window to come up! It hasn't always been this way, things used to pop right up! Now, I know that a reformat would probably fix it all but...wow that can be a headache. Could it be anything else?

I am running a Compaq Presario with a 3200+ AMD Athlon XP Processor and Windows XP. 512 MB SDRAM, 200GB HD.

Can Apache run under different instances, so that we can direct traffic to each Virtual Host under a different instance. Would doing so offer better security than simply using virtual hosting? One of our sites is internal, the others are public. We want to keep the internal site locked down extremely tight.

In that same light, is it possible to have different SSL certs for different Virtual Hosts running on the same physical box (under one IP)?

Thanks for suggestions/pointers.
