I am putting php source code into a database and now want to display it
to the end user.

I can't use show_source() because this only works for files.

I have tried this:

$source = htmlspecialchars($source_from_db);
echo "$source";

It echos the source but it doesn't preserve the original formatting of the source code (as
it appears in text box where I entered it).

I can probably do this:

$source = htmlspecialchars($source_from_db);
echo "<textarea rows=10 cols=60>$source</textarea>";

But I would rather have the source appear as a natural part of my
text rather than set off in a text box.

Anybody have any other ideas how I can pull source code (PHP & HTML) from a
db and present the source in a way that perserves the way it looks in the text
input box.

Why not output it straight to a temp file and show source this then just

Working on a submit form whereby a submitter of the form needs to attach an
image and send onto me using email notification

For e.g.

part of the php script:

/* Send relevant emails */
mail("$email", "Your request for information",
"$name\nThank you for your interest!\n");
mail("$adminaddress","Visitor request for info.","
$name requested for information.\n
The email address is $email. \n The Photo $photo \n");

Part of the submitform:

picture<br>
<input type="File" name="photo" size="25"> <br><P>

From the above i only receive the filename for the image and not the image
itself.

How could the image be attached to the email notification aswell. This is
the question???

Please can anyone help

A> How could the image be attached to the email notification aswell.
Go here: ftp://ftp.albasoftware.com/pub/mail_attach_bin.txt and
download the file.
Those are three functions (initially written by someone to attach text documents
to e-mail messages - sorry I have lost the author) I modified to
attach base64 encoded files as well.
At the very bottom of the file there's a short USAGE note.
I used the functions only with jpg and gif files but it looks like
they work with any kind of file.
Someone told me under PHP4 they do not work.

I hope this helps.

Hey All, I was wondering if anyone has done something similar to this. I would like to be able to pull the current URL out of the main browser window and submit it to a database which would then become that members online bookmark collection. I have seen bookmarkers that do something similar but I would like to have a drop down list in a remote window (Javascript) that feeds the main window (I have already found this part). Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,

Isolated, I guess. I use FastTemplate on a project here at home, and it works fine. What exactly is your problem?

The only problem I have with fast templates is that I find them somewhat strange to use, ie. counter-intuitive in some cases. Put I'm using them and they work.

Strange that the address do direct to porn sites...I'm pretty sure that the address which Christian sent was the correct one and the one I've been using myself.

I would have sworn it was the correct address.

Well, the comparison function itself can be anything you like; for your script, the requirements are a) cast to int somewhere in there, and b) sort in ascending order.

If I run any of the strings you give through usort() I get a sorted string back. To be frank, it sounds like when you're addin values to the end of the string it's not going through the sort again.

Can you show a short script which duplicates the problem?

It seems that PHP3 on Linux is not able to contact an MS SQL database without a third party commercial driver:-(

Someone told me that PHP4 will be able to contact an MS SQL database. I downloaded the code and had a look. It still seems that this capability is reserved for the win32 version of PHP....

Can someone shed some light on the issue and if there is something which is getting developed.

Who has a php4.rpm for linux/redhat/mandrake ?

Please reply directly to me as I'm on the digest list.

Sure it can. See the FreeTDS project (www.freetds.org). It works nicely.

Are you stopping MySQL? I believe it'll keep the index files and mysql database open to avoid the overhead of reopening these files constantly. If you're using MySQL as an NT service, then stick a

net stop MySQL

before backing up starts in your backup script to stop it. This will avoid attempts at database updates while you're backing up, too. This has worked fine for me.

You never defined $white, $black and $blue, so they all become 0. See the ImageColorAllocate() function.

Hi All,

I'm having trouble with the PHP virtual command eg. <?php virtual("index_body.shtml"); ?> this should call the .shtml file as if Apache called an <--#include virtual ... style command.

It gives the following error:

"Call to unsupported or undefined function virtual() in /home/username/public_html/index.php3 on line 17"

I currently get round this using an include, but then I don't get the SSI sections of the .shtml file - which kind of defeats the object.

The server uses PHP 3.0.7 not sure of apache version.

Is this a problem with the server or my calling of the function.

Any ideas?

Perhaps you are using the CGI version of PHP? virtual() only works in the Apache module version.

How can I tell?

I've run phpinfo() which didn't give too many clues (or rather that I knew to look for!)

Apache is V.1.3.3 (Unix). PHP core shows as CFLAGS=-g -02 -02 HSREGEX=yes if any of that helps.

TIA, Jeremy

Is there an Apache section in the phpinfo() output? Sounds like you are running the CGI version to me.

I have read and tested and read and tested some more, but cannot get the following code to set a cookie. Someone please tell me what I am doing wrong!

$setcky is a variable passed from a form on a previous page. When I echo $setcky I get a value and when I echo $id I get a value ( I am doing this AFTER SetCookie), so it is not that these variables are not set. I am not getting any error messages either.

I am able to set the following cookie fine on a different page:

<? $cookie = md5(uniqid(rand())); SetCookie("CookieName2",$cookie, time()+3600, "/", ".domain.org",0); ?>

Why is the first set of code not working?

Put a phpinfo() call in your script after your SetCookie() call and look at the response headers listed at the bottom of that output. Do you see your cookie?

My ISP has php installed as an apache module. They also have mSQL installed for me in my Virtual Server directory

What they don't have installed is any of the msql() functions for php.

is there a library that i can load using dl() to add these?

Alternately, i have compiled on my isp's server, the php cgi binary it works great from the command line, and connects to the msql db with no problems, but it won't do it through the web browser. it will do any other php command that i desire, except the msql_connect

recap: using the provided apache module on my isp, it states that msql_connect is an unkown function using the cgi, it won't connect, but it does know the function.

Ideas for making the cgi work? Lindsay Adams Dingos.net lindsaydingos.net

True. You could store them in a file instead of in your database, and store the path to them instead. It might improve performance drastically.

Well, since the bottleneck would seem to be the breaking of the text into nice-size chunks, why not simply do that when it is entered? IE: Instead of a single BLOB storing the whole article, store each article in "chunks" of a known number of lines (30, or whatever) and then spew out a given chunk on demand.

You'd need to record some meta-info, of course, and it would increase the article intake time (ie, a decrease in performance on insertion) but would certainly make it feasible to view the articles page by page.

You could, of course, combine *BOTH* methods :-)

attached mail follows:

If you made each document a table, and each page a record in the table, then you could use the MySQL limit clause to snap to the right page immediately.

You'd have to do something going in to parse the pages into the records, but that only happens once.

(just a newbie thought :)

MySQL is what many use because it's free and screams in speed.

Many people start with MySQL thinking they'll have to upgrade some day, and never do.

Unless you have more than a million records in your tables or need transactions/cursors, or have been brain-washed by proprietary database manufacturers into believing stored procedures are the bomb(1), MySQL is pretty much all you could ask for.

I use PostgreSQL myself, since that's what my ISP had handy.

PHP works just fine with Oracle, Sybase, MS-SQL, etc.

Obviously there are going to be differing experiences and performance/integration issues.

But there's certainly nothing remotely similar to PHP that's *more* flexible in terms of integration with databases.

(1) I'm no expert, and maybe if I was doing some massive database administration, I'd think differently but I've never seen a use of stored procedures that wasn't a direct result of: o Bad dba design o Broken database/SQL vendor (eg, need the auto-numbered ID returned on a per-connection basis like MySQL will do) o Brain-washing

Well after your message I went and undated my installation to latest version of PHP3 and Apache 1.3.11 and I don't seem to have any problems. I'm running on Win2000 Advanced server.

Is PHP working from the command line? like "php.exe somefile.php3". The only thing I did in the http.conf to make things work was add:

ScriptAlias /php3/ "c:/program files/php3/" AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3 AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .phtml Action application/x-httpd-php3 "/php3/php.exe"

to the bottom of the file. I have php3 installed in c:\program files\php3\. I have played around a bit with some settings and can't recreate your error message.

Use the register_shutdown_function() to call the function you want run in the background.

You might want to also check out

ignore_user_abort() and

set_time_limit()

so that your background processes does not get killed if it runs too long.

I want to have 365 messages in a MySQL table. (done)

And I want the website to automatically show one at a time based on today's date. (Switching at midnight.) Example: record #30 shows on February 1st all day. Record #31 shows on February 2nd, all day.

What MySQL query would I use to do this?

Or is it the job of PHP to customize the query?

I've got it all figure out (the basic "select" query to show the data) - except for the auto-changing date feature.

Any advice appreciated! Thanks!

I'm going to have to do something very similar very soon. The way I plan on doing it (this is untested, but should work... :D) is to use the Julian date. You have 365 (actually, you should have 366 to allow for the leap year this year!) messages in the MySQL db, each with a key of 1 to 366. When the page loads, it converts the current date on the server into the Julian date (which is a number between 1 and 366 - how convenient!), and then use that in the while clause of the sql - select message from messages were messageid=[julian date].

While you could use PHP to get find out what day of the year it is, it might be easier to just add a DATE field to your table, set to the date that you want it to be displayed. Then you could do:

SELECT message FROM table WHERE date = CURDATE();

Hope this helps.

Anyways, on the Battle table store the ClanID. ClanID can repeat, but I would assume ClanID and BattleID (or the player)together cannot repeat on one table.-- same player playing twice. Then you do a simple

Select * from Battle, Clan Where ClanID = BattleID.

Maybe something like: CREATE TABLE clantable ( ClanID varchar(5) NOT NULL, BattleID varchar(5) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (ClanID, BattleID), UNIQUE BattleID (BattleID, ClanID) // avoids same clanID in same battle field ); // of course other clans can be in teh same battle field.

use mktime() to create a unix time of their second of birth (lets assume they were born at midnight). Then do

time()-$birthtime

to get the number of seconds they've been alive. You can then use date() to produce a Y/M/D style thing.

Hello eAll--

I am trying to set up Apache / MySQL / PHP3 on Windows 95. I have everything installed and am following phpbuilder's configuration according to Heath Boutwell's column. (Thanks to listmember Brian.)

I followed all Heath's directions, including additions/changes for configuration:

renamed the php3-ini-dist to php3.ini extension_dir = c:\php3 extension = php3_mysql.dll browscap = c:\windows\browscap.ini

Also the Apache configuation additions/changes according to Heath:

ServerName http://localhost ScriptAlias /php3/ "c:/php3/" AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3 Action application/x-httpd-php3 "/php3/php.exe" DocumentRoot "C:/usr/bin/html" <Directory "C:/usr/bin/html">

So now I made a test page called hello.php3 [test page below], and put it in c:/usr/bin/html. But when I went to open it in

http://localhost/hello.php3

nothing was there.

Heath suggested a test in his phpbuilder column, but it involved DOS, in which I am *not at all* comfortable.

I know there is something obvious here that I am missing. Can anyone help?

Thanks, Margie

Hi!

Well, one reason why you see "many problems" is surely that if you never have problems you don't feel the need of mailing much. I would be such an example myself. You just don't mail saying: "Today I have had no problems!" :-)

PHP is installed on more than one mio. servers (Netcraft).

If we - just for fun - say that

- there is 1 programmer pr. server using PHP every day - they all would mail once here in case of a problem (where else would you mail? :-) - there are 100 problem-mails pr. day

we get that (100/1000000) of the programmers - or 0.01% - has a daily problem with PHP3!

Of course such a primitive calculation does not prove anything. But how wrong are the figures? Even a factor one hundred would still support what I and intensively PHP-using friends find:

"PHP problems? - never/hardly ever"!

- - -

Other newer technologies have their problems too, that I know. Whether they are less than PHP's? It's not my impression at all.

Enjoy!

Best regards

Frank

Thanks

I think I worked out a couple minutes after posting the question. You have to use $this for every member function call within the class. Found an example in the manual.

Nothing's happening, what else can I check?

PHP is reading my php.ini file, and is pointing at /usr/sbin/sendmail -t according to the variable dump

I call mail as:

$C_Email = "To: ".$Contact_Email."\n"; $From = "From: SpamWhack Automated Signup Engine\n"; $Reply_To = "Reply-to: dvanhornspamwhack.com\n"; $Subject = "Subject: Spamwhack Automated Signup Request\n"; $Priority = "X-Priority: 1\n"; $Mailer = "X-Mailer: PHP-4.0b3\n\n"; $Headers = ($From.$Reply_to.$Mailer.$Priority);

mail ($C_Email, $Subject, $Contact_message, $Headers);

My debug dump shows $Contact_Email as dvanhorncedar.net and $Contact message has a long string in it, with \n in the appropriate places.

The script executes without errors, but no mail ever arrives. :(

Is there some way to debug this?

I have been wracking my brain over this code till my eyes are burning anyone got an extra set that can tell me the missing code. The goal is a

very SIMPLE html template variable repalcement. The missing part has got

to be something with variable variable syntax or something but nothing I

have tried is working. Basically all I need at this point is something to change $repped to the contents of each one of HP_ varibles

Any help welcome.

Template follows code listing

PS This is running on php4b3 and html files are parsed as php

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< test.html >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> <?php

function DoTemplate(){ $numargs = func_num_args(); $filename = func_get_arg(0); $arg_list = func_get_args(); $tempfile = fopen($filename, "r");

while(!feof($tempfile)){ $templine=fgets($tempfile, 255); for( $i = 0; $i < $numargs; $i++ ) { $finder = "%%" . $arg_list[$i] . "%%";

SOMEWHERE IN HERE $repped should be equal to the "contents" of the variable that is named the same as the name of the element in $arg_list[$i] through each loop

$templine = ereg_replace($finder, $repped, $templine); } print($templine); } fclose($tempfile); }

$HP_bgcolor="BLACK"; $HP_text="WHITE"; $HP_info="some stuff to print";

DoTemplate("test.tpl","HP_bgcolor","HP_text","HP_info");

?> <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< end test.html >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< test.tpl >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> <html> <head> <title></title> </head> <body bgcolor="%%HP_bgcolor%%" text="%%HP_text%%">

%%HP_info%% </body> </html> <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< end test.tpl >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Does anyone know the estimate?
