How can I tell it to use the real file name that's uploaded as opposed to
this strange name it creates on the server? (like pHpwheiu)

Subject: Re: [PHP3] Upload Examples

Hi,

>From "Core PHP Programming":

--begin quote
The form must ise the post method to allow for uploads, and they must also
contain enctype attribute with a value of multipart/form-data. A hidden form
variable, MAX_FILE_SIZE, must precede the file input tag. Its value is the
maximum fle size in bytes to be accepted...
--end quote

Well, in my experience I did not NEED the MAX_FILE_SIZE variable... But you
have to play around with the upload_max_filesize in php.ini...

After you submit the form, you will have 4 variable defined.. If the name of
your FILE field was "userfile" then:

1) $userfile : contains the complete path to the temporary file name
2) $userfile_name : conatins the original name of the file on the
submitter's computer
3) $userfile_size : contains the size of the file
4) $userfile_type : conatins the mime type of the file, if it was offere by
the browser.

I am attaching one submission HTML file and one action PHP3 file as
examples...

Hope it helps,

Ufuk Kayserilioglu

didn't you forget the "global $used_ads;"-statement?

by the way: you could set $in=false before the for-loop, then you don't need this extra-decision. (yes, I know it's trivial :-) )

isn't that a bit too complicated algorithm only to rotate various images? why don't you simply use a cookie to hold an incrementing number which indexes an image?

Yes, but I wanted to have ads with a relative weight so that those weighted heavier would show up more often, if I used a cookie it would rotate the ads in order. I fixed the global problem and now it works fine. The site is www.whatshappeningdaytona.com

Yeah I think that is pretty much it. If you're starting out then make sure you're starting with the Beta of PHP 4. A beta 4 should be out in a few days or you can start out with Beta 3 which should be good enough just to get started.

Actually, either will output error messages depending one what you've set the error_reporting flag to (using the error_reporting() function).

> "this is ".row[what]." xyz" will output equally effectively

(Assuming the missing '$' is a typo.)

This will only work if the error_reporting() is set low enough, because it will generate a warning. In the $row[what], you should have quotes around the 'what' so that PHP doesn't try to evaluate it as a keyword or constant.

Okay so this might be considered lsightly off topic

I have a rather high-traffic sight and I'm using mod_php with persistent connections to mysql. Problem is safe_mysqld out of the box allows up to 100 clients and this brings the server down. I tried limiting (to 8) and that worked except I started getting too many connection errors. My guess is that the use of pconnect is forcing a 1 to 1 ratio of apache to mysql processes... Instead of say sharing one handle amongst many apaches. Are there any ideas how to: keep the performance advantages of pconnect support lots of clients keep the server up and happy

One idea I had was to limit mysql procs to n for n pconnects, but then somehow have an additional mysql proc that takes connects only (not pconnects) from the excess apache processes? Sounds good on paper, but then there's the issue of doing it...

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Hi Folks, I haev ben doing some work using cvs from php scripts. I have had some difficulty in desciphering the poutput generated form the command line version of cvs. It occured to that a php module/library to talk to cvs would be quite usefull.

Is there anyone who agrees, I would like to find the time but my boss's would make it difficult ( especially my wife) to find the time.

I have noticed one of the big changes in goping to cvs 1.10 that there is a cvs library now and extra command like rcs are no longer neccessary. This is I feel what would make it viable.

I thought I might look at the code of the emacs editor use of cvs but then I am not a lisp programmer and would probably get lost.

Anyway I feel that basic fucntionality of add,delete,update, status, history would be realy useful.

Oner of the prlberms I am having is that cvs status does not tell me of files or directories in the repsoitory that are not in the working directroy. I am having to to a cvs history to try to find out.

Hi there,

I have to choose between Oracle and Sybase to backend a rapidly growing e-commerce site which primarily uses PHP to interact with the DB but also uses Java Servlets. At the moment we are using mySQL but have reached a point in time where we require transactions, sub-selects, replication etc. We'll be running on SUN Hardware and Solaris. Virtually every page on the site interacts with the DB with around 90% of activity been selects rather than inserts.

If anyone out there has used both DBs it would be greatly appreciated if you could share your experiences. Also anyone got any idea on pricing for Sybase? - thier site is a nightmare.

PS I'm not considering PostgreSQL because because DBAs are harder to come by for this DB. Also need to go with something commercial for political reasons.

is there a library that i can load using dl() to add these? I have also compiled PHP as a cgi handler.

I can edit my httpd.conf and srm.conf files, but don't know how to change them in such a way as to use the cgi that i compiled, instead of the apache module.

I am hoping that they will just recompile the module for me with msql support included. i couldn't do it, because I don't have access to the httpd.h file they used. They have not responded to my tech support request, and time is running out on my project.

I did run ./testall after compiling, and everything worked, so, i am hoping someone can help me.

thanks! Lindsay Adams Dingos.net lindsaydingos.net

PHP provides options for regular expression matching using either POSIX or perl-style regexps:

POSIX: http://www.php.net/manual/ref.regex.php3 (additional information is in the regex.7 manpage in the regex/ subdir of the PHP distribution; cd to the regex/ subdir and type 'man ./regex.7' to read)

Perl-style: http://www.php.net/manual/ref.pcre.php3

Hello eAll--

I have a very basic installation question (and can't find it in the manual or list archives). My technical expertise is somewhat limited at this point.

I am in the process of setting up Apache / MySQL / PHP3 on Windows 95. Apache is installed just fine. Now I am working on PHP. I have it downloaded and unzipped, sitting in c:\Program Files. (Apache is also in c:\Program Files.) However, nothing happens when I select php.exe and attempt to continue the installation process. Can anyone suggest something which might be the problem?

Thank you, Margie.

AFAIK, you're looking at just the php binary (php.exe). You need to tell Apache and Windows that you're using PHP. It's been a while, but I don't think PHP has a windows based installer (you just download the binary files and extract it to a directory (c:\php would be nice and simple; stick php.ini.distro in c:\windows and rename it to php.ini).

Nevertheless..

This article will help. Just pick up where you left off. It should explain everything in plain english.

Hi,

I've got a File Upload routine working, which first checks against a User Table to see if a) they're registered, b) they've entered a correct password and c) if they have Upload Permissions. Now, on the Password verification, when the password is false, it displays my "Wrong Password" text, but *also* there's an error:

Warning: $pass_row is not an object in upload2.phtml on line 18

Line 18 being: if ($pass != $pass_row->pass)

How can I tell it to ignore the error and just say "Wrong Password"?

Thanks.

Hi,

I have a Drop Down list in a form and I want to enter the selected data into a MySql Database. I have tried using the name of the Select as the variable to Insert into the table, but it doesn't work.

What should I do?

<select name="rights"> <option value="upload">Can Upload</option> <option value="admin">Admin</option> <option value="view">View only</option> </select>

There's the code. Any help appreciated.

Are you using $rights as the value? Explain how you know it doesn't work.

# <select name="rights"> # <option value="upload">Can Upload</option> # <option value="admin">Admin</option> # <option value="view">View only</option> # </select> # # There's the code. Any help appreciated.

Where's the SQL and PHP? What's the output of mysql_error() and $php_errormsg? Are you using any other error handling functions like die()? You should.

There's also the possibility that your database user doesn't have rights to insert.

attached mail follows:

There's nothing wrong with the form code for you're drop-down list. It is the SQL Query that makes it save to the database. Make sure the column that contains 'rights' is being saved from $rights - for example:

$sql_insert = "insert into $TableName (ID,ClientName,Email,rights) values ('$ID','$ClientName','$Email','$rights')";

We use webalizer (see freshmeat.net) but did look at analogure with reportmagic. Both packages are comparable, neither is in PHP though, but why must it be PHP. Also both are cross platform and you dont need to throw your logs into a DB.

Have a look at freshmeat.net and do a search on log or something similar.

Hello. I trying to install php, and I'm getting a weird apxs error. I've looked in the FAQ, and thats not the error I'm getting, and I even tried that fix but it didn't help.

Basically apxs is complaining that the -W is not a valid option. The relevant output I get during the 'make' command is below.

I am running on RedHat 6.1, apache 1.3.9 (not a RH rpm install).

My configure command is ./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-apxs= /usr/local/apache/sbin/apxs --with-xml But I've tried a lot of variants, too, all with the same result.

I'm not subscribed so please CC me direct. Thanks for any help.
