Hi *,
    I would like to have a banner system with PHP3, I have searched
    and the only thing I found was phpAds. phpAds seems quite fine
    to me, but 'unfortunately' (for me) it is written for MySQL
    and my provider uses mSQL :-(.

    So the question is, has anybody ported this to mSQL? or know
    of a similar and functional mSQL alternative? I have been
    trying to port it but I am not familiar with MySQL. Since
    I see no design document I am a bit lost at doing the things
    I don't know about :-)

TIA,
Emilio

Hi, I have seen that PHP4 does support some precompiling that would allow to distribute 'bytecode' (something like that at least) instead of PHP3 source. This is a nice feature. Recently when running through the archives or the docs I read something about PHP3 supporting 'precompiling'. Is that true? how good or bad is it? how is it done?

I have rebuilt the Red Hat package to include mSQL support but I didn't see any way to also build the CGI version which I might use for quick syntax checks. Any ideas?

TIA, Emilio

Short answer:

Longer answer:

There was a pretokenizer built in to PHP3 a number of versions ago, but it didn't add any real security and it didn't add any appreciable speedup; I don't think anyone uses it, it hasn't been supported, it may even be broken in latest PHP3 versions. There's a php commandline option to pretokenize, but i don't recall it; try php --help.

But, refer back to the short answer...for all practical purposes -

No.

Sorry for this flurry of postings but I am in a hurry and haven't found my answers so far....

I use Apache with PHP3 on RH6.0. I have been trying to find out what are the .phtml pages without success. Whenever I try to access a .phtml page it gets converted to application-php3 or something like that and instead of processing it, it is offered for download :'(. Is this a deprecated extension?

Also, in some example in a web site the guy mentioned that you could use PHP3 with SSI but I can't figure out what he really meant. If I have a .shtml or .html page it will not recognize <?php tags/code. If I use .php3 it does which is also what I would expect. I thought .phtml would allow to use php3 code inside as well, for example to use auto-language selection :-) Any ideas or thoughts on this?

Thanks in advance, emilio

attached mail follows:

Didimo,

look at your httpd.conf. it will have a line called AddType (for PHP), that tells apache to use the PHP module to parse those documents. if you were to add .phtml to the end of the list (you would probably want to add it to the DirectoryIndex option too.), restart apache and your problem would be fixed.

so if you want php to parse .html, .php3, and .phtml files, the end of your PHP AddType line would look like this:

.html .php3 .phtml

hope this helps.

Silly question time...

Is there any place/where I can get hold of a copy of the GD library? Yup, I know I can get the current version, but I was wondering about the version with GIF stuff in it... Yes, I know PNGs are better, but... There's a slight technical hitch when it comes to viewing PNG files in not-so-up-to-date browsers... It don't work!

Thanks for any help...

Chris Clarke.

attached mail follows:

Chris,

i believe the site is http://www.boutell.com/, and i believe the GIF support has been changed to PNG for legal reasons. If you go to the GD site, it tells you why there (or it used too). hope this helps.

FYI: If you are running RedHat 6.x it has the GD 1.3 module installed with the system.

The 1.3 is the last known good version to utilize GIF manipulation.

So that is a place to start... If you have RedHat that is...

I have a billing system set up for giving clients access to their statements, etc(http://ve-studio.com/wb/). If I go to one of these statements (eg: http://ve-studio.com/wb/client_page.phtml?name_user=test&pass=testpass&todo=state&B1=Submit) I can e-mail this to my client and they will get it as an HTML attachment in their e-mail.

What I would like to do is use the MAIL() function to send this e-mail, preferably with the above mentioned content in the body instead of as an attachment. This way I can set up a loop to send all my invoices at once instead of one at a time.

Being a newbie, a real life example would be appreciated.

Thanx.

Well first of all what is the version of php that you are using? second, what ever the version the way I always do it is by building variables for the parameters that the mail() function takes instead of putting strings in the parens. What I mean is that I neve do mail("foohere.com","hello there","come an check your statement at http://ve-studio.com/wb/client_page.phtml?name_user=test&pass=testpass&todo= state&B1=Submit");

instead what I would do is: $to_address = "foohere.com"; $subject = "Hello there"; $message = "Please come check your account at http://ve-studio.com/wb/client_page.phtml?name_user=test&pass=testpass&todo= state&B1=Submit"; mail($to_address,$subject,$message);

if you do that inside a loop of some sort that would loop as many times as you have addresses to send mail to, you can see what can be done with this method

Well, it's far from pretty, a lot of things are hard coded and there is no commenting or documentation (though I may write some now), but a copy of my time sheet program is available at ftp://204.1.241.133/pub/TimeSheets-0.1.tar.gz

If anyone has any questions, feel free to email me at cshayapolloi.com

ad-hoc readme.txt ---------

This was never really designed for the rest of the world to see, so it's not nearly as nice as it could be, and a lot of things are hard coded. It assumes that the mysql database is running on localhost and that there is a db called "TimeSheets" The login/password for the db is configurable in "db.inc". Authentication/identification is via .htaccess (I use $REMOTE_USER all over the place) basic authentication.

The required tables are:

CREATE TABLE Projects ( UID int(11) unsigned DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL auto_increment, Client int(11) unsigned DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL, Text text NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (UID), UNIQUE UID (UID) );

CREATE TABLE Clients ( UID int(11) unsigned DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL auto_increment, Client varchar(20) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (UID), UNIQUE UID (UID) );

CREATE TABLE Sheets ( UID int(11) unsigned DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL auto_increment, User varchar(50) NOT NULL, Hours decimal(4,2) unsigned zerofill DEFAULT '0.00' NOT NULL, Description text NOT NULL, FlatHourlyProject enum('Flat','Hourly','Project') DEFAULT 'Hourly' NOT NULL, Date date DEFAULT '0000-00-00' NOT NULL, Type enum('Design','Programming','Video','Creative','Flash','AcctMgmt') DEFAULT 'Design' NOT NULL, Client int(11) unsigned DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL, Project int(11) unsigned DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (UID), UNIQUE UID (UID) );

You MUST use basic auth currently because it requires $REMOTE_USER to even work. The only table you need to manually add any info to is Clients. Just add the names of your clients in here.

It doesn't take into account ANY security since it was designed for an intranet, but tightening it up would be relatively minor.

The user in db.inc needs Select, Insert, Update, and Delete priveledges on the db. A lot of things are hard coded to saying "Apollo" (the company I work for) and the billing types (Flat/Hourly/Project) are hard coded, but adding/changing them shouldn't be too big a deal. If you have any questions please feel free to email me. It's not pretty, but it's probably a good start to a more full featured program. If you make any improvements to it please email me the diffs.

Please forgive me if this is a very obvious question, but I have been unable to find anything about it. Is there any location where the changes are listed between the different releases of PHP. I have been testing a few small scripts on 3.0.10 where they function perfectly, but when I put them on the server running 3.0.8, they do not function at all. As far as I can tell I have all the php3.ini setting are the same, so I figure the difference must lie in the release version. If such a listing exists, would someone please tell me where to find it, or if you know of anything else that could cause problems.

(1) What is the column you're showing here...is that 'Value' ?

(2) What database? If mySQL, have you isamchk'ed (or myisamchk'ed, if appropriate) the table to make sure it's not corrupted.

What that sort order looks to me is if you're treating a numeric value as a string and sorting in descending order, but with the $query you've shown that isn't the case.

This might be more of an issue for the appropriate database mailing list...

$fileaNum = count($fileaArr); $filebNum = count($filebArr);

for ($h = 0; $h < $filebNum; $h++) { $line = $filebArr[$h]; $pat = "\t"; $emailb[$h] = split($pat,$line); }

for ($i = 0; $i < $fileaNum; $i++) { $email = $fileaArr[$i]; $emaila[$i] = chop($email); }

while (list ($key, $email1) = each ($emaila)) { printf ("Email A: %s \n", $email1);

// for each address in A, search through the addresses in B while (list ($key1) = each ($emailb)) {

// check to see if emails match; if not, keep going if ($email1 == $emailb["$key1"][1]) { printf ("Match! %s \n", $emailb["$key1"][1]); } } continue; }

The program is only running the 2nd while loop once -- even though it runs the 1st while loop (at least, the printf part) until it reaches the end of the list. Here's what the output looks like:

Email A: namedomain.com Match! namedomain.com Email A: name2domain2.com // this one, by the way, should have a match. I checked. Email A: name3domain3.com Email A: name4domain4.com Email A: name5domain5.com ...

Try sticking

reset($emailb);

in there before you enter the inner while loop.

Been thinking about this for a while and since I am no Sendmail guru here is what can be done

Set up a cron job to poll the pop address using one of the many pop mail classes available after that parsing the from, subject and message should be simple.

timestamp is the number of seconds passed since 1.Jan 1970

so you have to add just 6 (hours) * 60 (minutes) * 60 (seconds)

add this line: $datestamp+=6*60*60;

-the function used in phorum.org's code is of a "datetime" type, I'll make it log a "timestamp" instead if that is easier to manipulate and add the 6 hours I need for the time shift. It might make it more difficult to format though? I'll give it a try, thank you.

Either you have thoroughly confuzzled Apache, or you have over-ridden the php with the php4 mime type, and there is no handler for the php4 mime type.

PHP3 does not do this. PHP4 does not do this. Forthcoming commer$ial add-on[s] from Zend would allow the scripts to be pre-compiled by an optimizing compiler as binaries and cache them for faster usage/access.

If require() really is your bottleneck, you may want to look at:

Buying enough RAM that httpd+PHP+???+scripts can fit in RAM Partitioning more swap space Moving your require'd files to a smaller/faster partition/drive Re-coding your most-used functions in C/PHP and compiling them into the PHP binary itself (see apidoc.txt in the tarball distribution)

While this last solution would obviously be time-intensive, it also comes closest to your original request.

Disclaimer: I have no real experience with this problem, and am only hypothesizing solutions.

These where installed as binaries from rpms.

The PHP works as expected, but I can not seem to find the php_mysql extension. functions like mysql_connect() return as unknown methods.

Does anyone know where I can get the php_mysql extension so I can load it from php3.ini and not have to build src.

At this point, unless you are brave, your best bet is to fork a pgp or gnupg process and feed it the text. The mcrypt php extension will allow you to do some of it (encrypting the data), but it doesn't have the public/private key encryption routines needed to encrypt the key used to encrypt the data... This algorithm is pretty intense. The source is available with gpg.

So the options now would be to just pass the data to pgp/gnupg, write a pgp extension to php, or write a pgp library and link a php extension to that. I think gnupg has a planned pgp library (at least their docs allude to it, although it isn't there...). The only other one I have found is called CINT and seems to be pretty much developed for macos. I might play with this one a bit though. We have a need for being able to encrypt and decrypt pgp data from the web, so sometime in the future we may tackle this, but I'll probably wait until a reliable pgp library exists.

Does "View Source" show anything?

Add "... or die(mysql_error()) to all mysql_query() calls.

It's also possible that your PHP cgi is still connecting to the other MySQL which is a slightly different version, and then it pukes on the query...

Use <?php phpinfo();?> to be sure you are compiled with the version of MySQL you think you are.

Use, errr, whatever function/query you can use in MySQL to ask what version it is, or at least double check your connection string to make sure the host and port are the right thing.

copy() cannot copy a file from the users pc. They would have to do file-upload in a form to get it to the server, and then you could copy it from the temp dir to wherever you want it.

See the file-upload section of the online manual. http://www.php.net

Uhhhhhh. Recursion is also *VERY* expensive.

You want the last 20, so use the SQL you have. You want to display them in reverse order?

for ($i = 19; $i >= 0; $i--){ if (list($user) = mysql_fetch_row($result, $i)){ echo $i, ' -- ', $user, " \n"; } }

Heres the problem, i am calling a function from within a table on a page, the output is formatted correctly and the function works fine, the problem is that the output is not inside the table where i want it. it keeps appearing at the top of the page.. like right where i have it defined.. not where i call it.

ie function defined {function output} html head title [ Page Title Banner] table function();

eeks! thats a little crude :) but i hope it gets the point across

the function is a mysql query, which does takes in $id and prints html formatted info about $id ...like i said the function works correctly it just isnt putting it where I want it.. I have had similiar problems with other functions...

is it not possible to have a function print out this inforamation? should i try:

function foo($id) { $text = " command; command;"; return $text; }

any ideas, thoughts etc .. are appreciated

And one should not underestimate the importance of this. There's a reason we use php and perl vs assembler...

I wrote two scripts, one in perl and one in php to do what you say. Each loops through a for loop 59,999 times appending sdf to the string. It then performs 5 regular expressions on the string. They are quite simple regexps albiet, but perl takes an average of .55 seconds and php takes an average of .93 seconds. While perl is faster, this is by no means the dramatic difference you pose.

You can see the results of some speed differences I have tested between mod_perl and mod_php4 at

http://www.progressive-comp.com/Lists/?l=php3-general&m=94631992332618&w=2

Source links included. The forum app is the one I'm concerned most with since that is a real world application of mine.

But I still feel speed is not the most important thing in choosing a language... I mean hey, I use apache everywhere when there are several other quality web servers that will kick apache's but in speed. Why do I use apache?

I would have to completely disagree with this. When you change from MySQL to postgresql, you cannot have postgres generate auto_increment primary keys by changing one word in your app. When you change from Oracle to MySQL, you cannot have MySQL execute oracle stored procedures by changing one word in your app. Perl offers api abstractions, it does not offer database abstraction. If you want to be able to just switch db's, this means you have to abstract the database. One way to do this is by creating a seperate module with all your database functions. Something that your app can call with getData() and the function will take care of getting it from the db. Just using a simple API wrapper to save you having to change function names is not abstraction. Further, it doesn't allow you to take advantage of custom database api's. Sure, you can do it with dbi, but again that's not independant of the database.

The only really good database abstraction I've seen is Enterprise Object Framework. It's one of the few things that will allow you to completely abstract the database. What perl does compared to EOF really makes it look like childs play. Further, there are several classes available for php that will give you the exact same database wrapper functionality that perl does. A few notable examples:

http://phplib.netuse.de http://phpclasses.upperdesign.com/browse.html/package/20 http://lxr.php.net/source/php4/pear/DB/

Of course, the last is not quite there yet, but is the start of a package for PHP's pear repository.

You make it sound like Yahoo and AltaVista run cgi perl scripts on a single machine. I could run one of the busiest sites in the world completely with shell scripts if I have the hardware to back it up.

And do you have any idea of the amount of traffic freshmeat.net, linux.com, VA Research, Honda, etc. generate? If you have some examples as to php not being able to power a high traffic site, pleae share.

Great! > In short, Perl is better than PHP. As far as web > stuff, TSI should help Perl be easier.

Now we make a dramatic leap here. We go from Perl is faster than PHP to perl is better than php. Assuming perl is faster than php (which I don't think is a valid assumption, but anyway...) this does not by default mean it is better. If raw speed is all you need, then you should choose the fastest method. In this case, I would suggest you write a custom web server with a native programming capability, embed it in the linux kernel, and serve pages out of ram.

In the real world, you need to take into account many other factors. How much performance do you really need? What can you use to get the job done fastest? What is the easiest to maintain? What are you most proficient with? What works best for the task at hand? What is fastest for the task at hand? How efficient are various solutions under a load? And it can go on and on.

Perl is a nice langauge. PHP is a nice langauge. If you like perl, more power to you. Use what fits your needs.

Actually, that last one would work fine if it was a comparison, but again it's an assignment. Since you can't assign to a literal, you get a parse error.

I agree that the '=' vs. '==' is an easy mistake to make when trying to compare something, but after you do it a couple of times, you start realizing what to look for when your conditionals keep getting mysteriously executed when they shouldn't. :)

[OBstupidmistake]

Confusing function return values with function output. Easy brainfart to make, especially when you're tired:

<?php function my_name_1() { echo 'torben'; }

function my_name_2() { return 'torben'; }

echo "My name is '" . my_name_1() . "'. \n"; echo "My name is '" . my_name_2() . "'. \n"; ?>

The output of the above script is:

torbenMy name is ''. My name is 'torben'.

This is because my_name_1() gets evaluated when the line is executed, and its output is sent straight to the browser; the echo lines however are trying to concatenate its *return value* into the string. It's not returning a value, so nothing gets put there.

mmmm,

If i do the following;

<? $username = "foo";

if ((!$username) && (!$password)){ echo "Success"; } else { echo "Failed"; } ?>

I get "Failed".. and if i comment out the $username = i get "Success".

I dont see the problem.....

!$var will return true if $var is not set, equal to "", or equal to 0 or even "0" or false, but not "false".

>>> "Tom Kevich" <phpartcenter.ac> 02/11 1:52 am >>> Yes this will return true every freaking time because of the empty strings.. you cant even use is_set() or even is_int or is_str all because of that "empty string"

this is the way i would do this, try it, leme know:

<? if ($username!="" && $password!="") { then execute some code; } ?>
