That won't work, as he want's to know the next twelve months, not twelve months. I've adjusted the code.

Just an observation:

I feel like a member of the PHP community, it has changed the way I do business, and I have an incredible amount of respect (even aw!) for the members on this list. It is only natural, when confronted with a problem to be solved, to turn to friends & peers for help with the solution.

I have posted off-topic questions here, and have been given great solutions (some involving PHP, some not). Likewise, I have benefitted greatly from reading other solutions to off-topic posts.

I know there needs to be order, and we wouldn't want it to get out of hand. But in reality, it is a rare occurence, and I think it adds to the list rather than diluting it (it seems like some on the list may feel a little religious about the whole thing, ready to sacrifice someone for an off-topic post).

Thanks to the whole list and PHP community! Brian

For the record, there are some great VPN solutions for PHP, some more encrypted / secure, some less.

http://freshmeat.net/search.php3?query=VPN has some good resources and should give you a good start.

Some will even allow you to work under linux and still work for your NT customers (the last thing I want to do is put an NT box in my server room!).

HTH, Brian

Sorry, this was meant to say linux instead of PHP (was just in a PHP evangelizing mood). Of course PHP and VPN have little to do with each other...

attached mail follows:

Well I gave up on the backtrace in the end - the site5 support guy just ignored me.

I spent some more time on the problem and narrowed it down to the return statement in the end. The original code was like this:

function bbcodeparse ($bbcode) {

// do some stuff with $bbcode including many str_replace and eregi_replace

return $bbcode;

}

It was the return that seemed to be causing the crash, so I did this as a workaround:

function bbcodeparse ($bbcode) {

bbcodeparse2($bbcode;

return $bbcode2;

}

function bbcodeparse2 ($bbcode) {

global $bbcode2;

// do stuff on $bbcode

$bbcode2=$bbcode;

}

And that fixed the problem! I have no idea what caused it, but I got it working. Unfortunately, no backtrace, but I will report it as a PHP bug anyway.

Cheers, John

I expect to get flogged pretty bad for this one. I found out what my ENTIRE problem was...ready for this??

My original command line was: ./configure --with-apache=../apache_1.3.12 --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-gd --with-zlib --with-ttf --with-ftp --with-snmp --with-imap=/usr/local/imapd/imapd-4.7b --enable-track-vars

Which failed miserably. The reason for this is because 'c-client' isn't in '/usr/local/imapd/imapd-4.7b', it's in '/usr/local/imapd/imap-4.7b'

See my mistake?? (imapd-4.7b is supposed to be imap-4.7b) :o)

Go ahead, I'm ready for my punishment :o) LOL

Thnx for all the help.

Note that there are two problems that I ran into while implementing our solution using class.nnrp

1. They seem to think that the PHP function set_time_limit() adds to the amount of time the PHP script has left, when what it actually does is *set* the time the script has left. In the function "ExpectResponse()", it does an "AddTime(1)" which sets the amount of time the script has left to 1; if you do any major processing after this, you run the risk of running out of time. I added

$this->Addtime(10);

outside of the "while" loop in that function. (I ran into this when running the body of articles through a regular expression to convert URLs to links.)

2. When determining header names, the regular expression that they use assumes that there are no colons in the data part of the header. That is, the name of the header ends up being everything up to the *last* colon in the line. Thus, very few (if any) articles have a "Date" header. Most have a "Date: 5/31/00 19:20" header (or something like that). This also made the "Subject" header basically disappear if there was a colon in the subject line. (The header was still in the associative array, it just wasn't called "Header".)

The offending regular expression is in the Article() function and the Head() function. I changed the if(ereg(...)) lines to:

if(ereg("^([^:]*):(.*)$",$line,$ph)) { if(ereg("^([^:]*):(.*)$",$line,$ph)) {

In going over the code right now, it looks as though I should also have changed it in Overviewfmt() as well. This sets it so that the header's name is everything in front of the *first* colon in the line, and the data is everything after the first colon.

Hallo,

+++++++++++ Let me know, if you need an English version of my question!! +++++++++++

vor wenigen Tagen habe ich versucht PHP auf meinem Rechner zu installieren. Leider ist mir das letztendlich nicht gelungen.

Ich habe einen handelsüblichen PC mit Windows 98. Das PHP habe ich von einer CD aus der Zeitschrift PC-Magazin.

Ich habe PHP gemäß Installationsanleitung installiert! Insbesondere habe ich das PHP3-Verzeichnis angelegt und alle Dateien dort reinkopiert. Die PHP3-Ini-Datei habe ich in das Windows-Verzeichnis kopiert und umbenannt. Weiter habe ich die Zeile "extension_dir = c:\php3 ;" eingefügt. Alle Zeilen mit "extension" haben vorne ein Semikolon. An der Datei "browscap.ini" habe ich keine Änderung vorgenommen. Die Änderungen an der "registry" habe ich mittels der Datei "php_iis_reg.inf" gemacht. Ich habe an dieser Datei keine Änderungen vorgenommen. Danach habe ich noch den Personal Web Server installiert.

Anschließend habe ich eine ASCII-Datei mit Namen TEST.PHP3 mit folgendem Inhalt erzeugt: <html> <head> <title>Example</title> </head> <body> <?php echo "Hi, I'm a PHP script!"; ?> </body> </html>

Wenn ich jetzt den Internet Explorer aufrufe und mir diese Datei öffne, wird PHP gestartet. Ich erkenne das daran, dass für eine halbe Sekunde ein schwarzes Fenster aufgeht (sieht aus wie die MS-DOS-Eingabeaufforderung) und den Inhalt von TEST.PHP3 anzeigt. Dann passiert nichts mehr. Das gleiche passiert auch, wenn ich einen Doppelclick auf TEST.PHP3 mache.

Nach meinem Verständnis erkennt der Internet Explorer sehr wohl dass es sich um eine PHP3-Datei handelt. Aber aus irgend einem Grund wird aus der PHP3-Datei kein HTML-Code erzeugt. Bzw. wird der HTML-Code nicht an den Internet Explorer übergeben.

Ich stelle mir zumindest vor, dass genau das passieren müsste.

Ich bitte Sie mir einen Hinweis zu geben, wie ich weiter verfahren kann. Selbst das einfache Datei von oben kann ich nicht anzeigen. Der Vollständigkeit halber sollte ich noch erwähnen, dass der Internet Explorer ansonsten gut funktioniert.

Sollten Sie aus irgend einem Grund nicht in der Lage sein, mir weiterzuhelfen, wäre ich um eine kurze Rückmeldung dankbar.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,

Thomas Fischer

I usually say it depends on how much html you're talking about. Another issue is that there's a difference (though extremely minute) between echo "<html>" and echo '<html>' (The former is parsed, the latter is not)

So I'd say it's more of a style decision than a speed decision. The speed difference is rarely worth worrying about. I will usually escape to html from a script if I'm going to put out more than two lines of html that doesn't have any PHP embedded in it.

Whatever is most readable to you, go with it.

I use DreamWeaver 3 for my development, and by echoing as little HTML code as possible I am able to do 99% of my design WYSIWYG.

It works great to escape out of PHP in the middle of the while loop for database selects and go back to WYSIWYG for that table row:

... while ($r = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $VAR1= $r["FIELD1"]; $VAR2= $r["FIELD2"]; %> <tr> <td><% echo $VAR1 %</td> <td><% echo $VAR2 %</td> </tr> <% } ...

and it will automatically make a table with as many rows are as needed to display your data, and still allow you to do all of your table, width, color, font, etc formatting in your editor. I could hand code it as well (and still spend the majority of my time in code editor, not the WYSIWYG), but the WYSIWYG is so fast its not worth it most of the time.

That is all referring to speed of development (a major concern for me, even more so than execution speed), the speed of execution time shouldn't be a big deal except for the largest of sites on equipment that is spread thin. I would rather save time and throw a little more money at the hardware...

it would be better to just get out of php for larger blocks of html... but your judgement about how big the block should be to step out of php mode is up to you.

I would suggest somewhere around three or four lines/echos.

What about if the code is only to be executed IF certain things happen?

Example: only spit out this code if the browser is netscape, and only spit out this code for IE????

Can an if be carried accross broken php blocks?

<?php if($browser == NETSCAPE) { ?>

<?php } else { ?>

Yes it can, in a .php3,.phtml, etc. it will function that way. I use that all the time.

Folks,

I was getting beat down by sessions until I figured out what I was doing wrong. I figured I'd pass along this tip: it's all about globals.

This won't work:

-------- function foo() { if (session_is_registered("var")) { return true; } else { $var = "data"; session_register("var"); return false; } return false; } if (foo()) echo $var; --------

But this will:

-------- function foo() { if (session_is_registered("var")) { return true; } else { $GLOBALS["var"] = "data"; session_register("var"); return false; } return false; } if (foo()) echo $var; --------

The only difference is the global. Even though you define the variable and immediately use it, within the same function, you *still* need to make it a global. If you don't do that, you'll end up spending hours the same way that I did. Have fun.

People with a structured programming background tend to grasp scope quickly. Variables defined within a function are valid only within the scope of that function. Think of it this way, anything inside a box needs to have a string tied to it to reach it from outside the box.

Variable scope is an important concept.

However, in this context (passing a variable _name_ to register it and having to declare it global _also_) scope is _very_ misleading. Since I pass the name, not the data, I might assume that the receiving function does some magic to store the name/data pair. Especially if I don't read the documentation carefully:

"For each encountered variable name, session_register() registers the global variable named by it with the current session."

It may help if you create a block of variables that need to be registered at the very top of your code, outside the functions/classes - that way they're in one place and global in scope. I've always disliked that $GLOBALS[] hack :^)

I've managed to get everything with my shopping cart working except for two things: the auto clearing of temp files; the 'expired' function.

In order to shop with this shopping cart, one doesn't have to log in. I'm not sure if that is adding to my problems or not or if my two problems are related. I check for the occurance of a session ID on each page - if one is not there, I require the initiation file that includes my cart variables and registers them. I use cookies to set the session id, but have url/get as a back up. I pass the session ID and the current time via each and every url (I pass the time to try and keep old cached pages from showing up).

As soon as I add the following to my session header: $limit=7200; $time_lapsed = (time(void)) - $r; if ($time_lapsed>$limit) { header("Location: /store/expired.php?&sid=".$sess->id."&r=".time(void)); }

Were $r is the time when a user first pulled up a shopping cart page. I get taken to the 'expired' page no matter what my variables are set to. (I have a 'debug' file that is echoing out every variable - it can show a time lapsed of 1 and a time limit if 7200, but I'm still taken to the expired page). Any ideas? I feel that I'm missing something very simple.

Also, the session ID files that are written to the temp directory are never cleared out. Am I supposed to write a script to delete them? I've read through the PHPLIB documention until I'm bleary eyed and can't seem to find anything specific - just references to a 'garbage collection that reaps session records' - but can't seem to figure out how to actually delete the temp files. I am unsetting my cart after a successful order, but still have the session id files in the temp folder.

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Paul,

Wouldnt you be better to do something like (i havent any php in front of me)

$user = "markn"; $db = "production"; $password = "foobar";

ora_logon("$user$db",$password);

The best way to do this is via a prepended script that looks at your host name (via a regex) to decide the $db so you could have web.domain.com, webdev.domain.com and webtest.domain.com.

if($host == "web"){ $db = "production"; }elseif($host == "webdev"){ $db = "dev"; }

etc

This way user can swap between the db for testing etc.

Did you use apache web server?? I think you need to edit httpd.conf to enable the php script in apache?? then make a script like this <? phpinfo() ?> and save whatever file you want and put it in web server to see the php information.. "Chicolinux is surfing!" wrote:

Yep... easy.

I have recommended Labyrinth & Sprint (both owned by Labyrinth in Melbourne) as the preferred ISP (sprint for cheap hosting, labyrinth for hosting with business plans for access) for a few years now. Yes, all my own sites and domains are hosted with them, and no, I don't get a cent for recommending them :)

When they installed php on the servers, I took one look at the simplicity and capability of the code, and new that I'd be with Labyrinth for a while.

They are even going to install the php-as-a-cgi-binary for free-standing work as well.

Currently php3 is installed on both sprint and laby, and I believe php4 will be released after the code has been out there for 6months or so. MySQL is available (i think for an extra $5-10 per month), as is perl and a whole heap of php libraries.

They also have a nice local newsgroup for web developers on laby & sprint for quick answers to questions, and are always open to including extra modules, extra functionality or extra libraries.

I think hosting on Sprint is $250/year, and you have to be a user (just get the cheapest amount of block time and never use it!).

On top of all this, support and customer service is 10000% higher than the big boys, and they are totally commited to high performance, at any cost.

You can contact Pheobe Duckburgh (saleslabyrinth.net.au), tell 'em I sent you (they'll take a little more notice) and get the low-down, but I guarantee you won't EVER be disappointed.

I've been using a brilliant company called Immortal Technology in Brisbane, Australia that provides excellent service and facilities, particularly if you're looking for PHP+MySQL hosting. I have several sites hosted there and they've been excellent in accommodating my specialised PHP or MySQL requirements.

You'll find them at http://www.immortal.net.au.

Hi all!

Is it possible to compress a string without writing it to a file and then reading the file? We want to compress some text blobs before inserting into a database, and a round trip to a file and back seems unnecessary.

Is there something besides zLib we can use to compress (and uncompress) a string?

Thanks!

Use the modulus operator (%). Modulus returns the remainder portion of integer division. So, if the result of a modulus is zero, there was an even division.

if($somenumber % 1000) { // somenumber was evenly divisible by 1000 }

Dang, that modulus stuff is cool! I could use that a lot.

I was going to suggest if(ereg('000&',$somenumber)) to verify that the number of records ended in 3 0's, but modulus is better. (ereg's aren't my specialty, and that came out of memory space filled with cobwebs, so double check it...)

Hi, I must nt overlooking something but I could not find in the docs / phpbuilder.com the way to solve this :

class foo { var $name ; var $description ; } ;

$f = "file1" ; $$f = [] new foo ;

fill_array_with_something($$f) ;

function fill_array_with_something(&$fx) { $fx[]->name = xxx ; $fx[]->description = "blah blah" ; }

This is a base for a system that will receive some filenames and search them filling arrays of objects. Each file shall have a separate array.

The problem seems to be in the way that I can define an array...

Folks,

I have a client who needs a group of input pages with forms on them. The flow of the forms is determined by data they fill out on the forms, so I'm trying to use header() to change the flow according to user input. THAT part is working.

The problem I am running into is that after executing a redirect with header(), the new page loads, but the POST variables are gone! Does anyone know how to get around this? There are a *lot* of fields, so I'm not sure passing them with GET in the redirect is practical (and would certainly be ugly).

Please let me know if anyone has any ideas.

Thanks! -J
