I need a query that will return all payments in the thirty days proceeding $t_date. I cannot find date support in queries but know that is must be there.

Here is my code

$query = "select transactions.amount, transactions.date, transactions.type, members.affiliated from transactions, members where transactions.memberid = members.id and transactions.type = 'p' and How do I code for the thirty days preceeding $t_date";

$result = mysql_query($query, $dp);

As usual, your help will be very much appreciated

Detecting the language based on where they're connecting from isn't a realistic option, since that makes the assumption that somebody connecting to your site from, say, the US, wants to read it in english.

Aside from prodiving a pulldown menu of languages, as most international sites do, the only reliable option would be to check the HTTP Accept-Language header. Web browsers set this header with a space-delimited list of two-letter language codes. Google (www.google.com) would be a good example of a site that honors your Accept-Language setting and displays the site in the appropriate language.

You could use something like gethostbyaddr(getenv("REMOTE_ADDR")) and parse the extension but that. 1. Isnt always working cos some ips just dont have cnames 2. Would take some time. so you could perform his nslookup and then use some basic B class identification to get the best results. Good luck

Gp.

The fact remains, even if a user can be localized to a geographic area, it can't be assumed that they want to see a given website in the dominant language of their area. Detecting language by location is silly, and a far superior option has been written into the HTTP spec already, so why not use it?

It appears the error was in cookie - if I leave the content AND the IP blank, it works.....

Solved it myself, hope this interested some one.. :)

---- - - old message - - - - Hello,

I am trying to end a session by sending a new cookie and unsetting, destroying and unregistering. - it does not work - i need it to work so people don't have to close out of their browser.

using php4 rc1

I get no error messages.

<?PHP $PHPSESSID = $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["PHPSESSID"]; session_start();

if (!isset($PHPSESSID)) { echo " you dont need to logout" } else if (isset($PHPSESSID)) { setcookie("PHPSESSID","ooblech", time()+14400,"/","my.com:443",1) or die("setting logout cookie failed"); session_destroy(); session_unset(); session_unregister("PHPSESSID"); unset($PHPSESSID);

I can understand the system being able to script Outlook, but the simple fact is (and it is a simple fact) is that nothing I can open or click on or run from email should have access to system objects. Sure, ILOVEYOU would still have sent billions of emails, but it looses the fangs of being able to destroy and replace stuff on my drive and corrupt my registry.

The concern is that email is an internet application. That means it is exposed to insecure elements. Does it not make sense to use a sandbox model for email? Such as "This VBS was launched from within application X; either a) disallow access to methods outside the scope of X or b) launch detailed warning messages that WARN for each attempt to access methods outside the scope of X."

MS doesn't follow that model. It says, "Oh, launch that script. Oh, hi script from the internet, here's all the access to my innards."

Sure, the system has to be smarter and recognize context of launching, but it sure would save a lot of hassle. Maybe MS could "innovate" that someday.

Unless I'm badly misunderstanding you, you are asking how to pass the value of a page (say A.php) through a second page (say B.php) to a third page (C.php). If that's what you want, put a

echo "<input type=hidden name=\"NameOfInputOnPageA\" value=\"$NameOfInputOnPageA\">";

on B.php and the value will be passed to C.php.

Gosh, is everyone writing their own template engine? Im not about to ask whose is best, but i'de like to make a simple suggestion. Until the creators decided to integrate a template engine into the php core, someone needs to write a common interface, into which we can plug a template engine into (and please don't ask, Im way to lazy for that). I mean all the template engines I've seen up to this point basically all do the same thing.. their just implemented differently. I don't really know or care whose is the best, even though it seems as if everyone is claiming the one they use or wrote is, I just happen to be pissed since I recently changed from FastTemplate to phplib Template, which meant a whole lotta method renaming. Anyways, everyone have a good night..
