It's usually in your system root, but you could have put it somewhere else
when you installed PHP.
If you're on Windows it's liable to be in \windows\system,
\windows\system32, \winnt\system, or \winnt\system32. Most OSes come with a
Find Files command these days (just a thought).
Once you have found it, open it in your favourite text editor. Search for
"upload_max_filesize" and set it to whatever you like. Save it. Tell your
boss you'll have to spend all afternoon fixing this bug, then spend the rest
of the day reading Dilbert cartoons.

Sure, it is a dedicated RaQ3 server, running Linux/Apache, in which I didn't do the PHP install myself. I believe it not to be a dummy account because it shows:

php.ini is not installed - you need to modify php.ini-dist or php.ini-optimized from the top level directory of your source and place it in the directory you have specified at compile (if you did) or the the default (/usr/local/lib) location.

I mean, of course php.ini is not installed by the compile/install process; you need to do it yourself. If you don't, PHP uses built in defaults.

If your looking for something really easy there is Inspiration (www.inspiration.com) for Mac and Windows. It isn't a UML program but allows you to through together flowcharts quickly and easily and isn't too expensive.

Hi Everybody,
I am trying to prevent my Linux machine from crashing by the use of memory_limit, but is does not seem to work as I expect it to: When a php-script includes itself recursively by accident it grabbes all memory available in a matter of seconds, although I set max_execution_time=30 and memory_limit=8388608. After 30 seconds of execution the apache terminates the request, but the script keeps on running and allocating memory (far more than 8 MB). Do I misunderstand the memory_limit option? Is there an other way to limit memory usage besides system wide memory quotas?
Thanks Ralf

Isn't it illegal in the US to discuss rates in this manner?
It's always been my understanding that The U.S. law specifically makes discussion of pricing between competitors (all or some) a federal offense.
Am I taking this too literally?
attached mail follows:
You are taking this WAY to seriously. What you are talking about is the Sherman Act that developed our current antitrust laws. Specifically you are talking about "price fixing", which is illegal in the US. If EVERY PHP coder in the US got together at a trade show and said "We will all demand $150.00 an hour no matter what" then THAT would be illegal. Me mentioning to you how much I charge is totally legal.
This mainly applies to big businesses and large manufacturers - OPEC for example would be TOTALLY illegal in the US.

Slight philosophical disagreement here - knowing PHP extremely well still doesn't make it worth anything, unless you can apply that knowledge to a client's problems and create solutions/applications that are valuable to them.
Don't charge what you think you're worth. Wait, no. Charge what you think you're worth OR what the project is worth to the client, whatever is higher. If what you think you're worth is more than they want to (or can) pay, move on.
You may think it's worth $3000. The client may think it's worth (and willing to pay) $30,000. As a matter of fact, you MAY not get the work if your price is too low (perceived value).
There is a book out there called "million dollar consulting" (author=weiss I think) which might be a good read for list members, at least the chapter on pricing.

Ah, I see. Thanks for clarifying.
I only asked because the HTML lists
the HTML Writers Guild strictly prohibit
this sort of discussion, their reason always
having been that they are concerned about
'price fixing' laws.
It always seemed a little overkill to me.
Thanks,

Yes, you are taking this too literally. Our first amendment right superecedes any law.
What you may be referring to is when competitors in a small market (or in a market with limited competition) compare their prices behind the scenes in order to keep the prices high. Which is what the oil companies are often accused of doing (ever wonder why gas prices are usually within a few cents or even identical between stations even though they're supposed competitors?).

Of course, this might also be something to do with the fact that if one place is charging 80p/litre and one is charging 90p/litre, where are you going to spend your cash, given there's no difference between the petrol?

I've never quite understood why employers seem to expect that a php/perl programmer should also be doing graphic design. They're quite unrelated activities using completely different skills. It's not something that's generally expected from other professions (when was the last time you saw an advert for an accountant that required they be proficient with Photoshop?) so why programmers?

We should be prudent when discussing how much we charge for programming. I'm no lawyer but I believe it's okay to discuss hypotheticals, histories, and such, but remember that discussing wage rates may run against anti-trust regulation as evidence of collusion (at least in the United States).
Having said that, I seriously doubt we'd have the DOJ banging down on listers. And I find this topic honest and interesting, even though it doesn't concern me.
Besides, sometimes I think that PHP is so easy to learn that we should be considered unskilled labor ;-)

If you can deal with the obscene cost of living, here in Silicon Valley, California you can make ~80/hr doing being just a webmaster. ~100/hr for a GOOD coder, and ~120+/hr for a really good "real language" coder. That's obviously without benefits, options, guaranteed income, vacation, sick days, etc.

Hi,
first of all being desperate for help is okay but please don't write in cabs.
try this: while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result) ) { echo "<a href=http://tias.kub.nl/programs/$row[opleiding_afkorting]/ $row[leergang_afkorting/ virtuele.klas/programma/blok$row[module_nummer/$row[leergang_afkorting]_blok 0 $orw[module_nummer].html>$row[module_nummer]</a><br>"; } this lists the links. If "blok0" should increment you'll need to put something like $i = 0 before the while loop and $i++ after the "echo"
good luck Johannes

I have a need to produce reports from data in a table *and* the reports need to look the same for all clients (e.g. PDF output). Are there any "report generators" that can be interfaced with with PHP that have a PDF output *or* do I need to "roll my own" for each task/report?

Yes - but remember that you won't be able to see it on a page rendered by a browser, as they tend to treat tabs, multiple spaces and line feeds as a single white space.

hello,
i am rather desperately trying to figure out how to delete a node object from the DOM.
say i have a node $node by manually traversing the DOM tree or by an xpath_eval() function call. i can access the children ($node->children()) or the parent ($node->parent()) or add a sub-node ($node->new_child()) but there seems to be no $node->unlink() or something like that to remove $node from my DOM tree.
in libxml which the php domxml extension is built upon there's a function xmlUnlinkNode() which seems to do just that, but there is no binding for this function in php (or i didn't find it. i looked in ext/domxml/php_domxml.c).
any solutions / workarounds / patches anyone? or am i being plain dumb -- i am pretty a php novice so chances are i overlooked the very very obvious.
thanks
peter.

If you miswrite a CGI script and have lots of system calls, someone could send a command to your script that creates a link to, say, your password file, or something else, and then be able to view it through the web. If you have other users on the system the security hole opens wider. There are plenty of other reasons, as well. I would look for security information on various security websites, like insecure.org, securityfocus.com, etc.. Subscribe to some BUGTRAQ security lists. You will be surprised what is and is not a security hole. And, the more "features" you enable on your site, the more security concious you need to become. Your machine is *never* safe and enabling features opens more possibilities for abuse.
If you have a linux box, you might want to try locking your system down a bit with portsentry and bastille linux: http://www.psionic.com/abacus/portsentry/ http://www.bastille-linux.org/

Since so many people are now using MS Outlook for their e-mail which defaults to a proportional-width font (and I think newer Eudoras do too), I've found times that I need to specify a fixed-width font (IE Courier, Courier New) in so that columns of financials line up.
How do I do this with dynamically created data generated and mailed out with a PHP script?

Hello all,
I have an issue that I can not seem to resolve. Scenario:
Solaris 2.7 Netscape Enterprise Server 4.1 PHP 4.0.4 Oracle 8i
Configured as: --enable-debug --enable-pic --enable-inline-optimization --with-regex=system --with-gettext=/usr/bin --enable-safe-mode --enable-sysvmem --enable-sysvshm --enable-track-vars --enable-ftp --with-xml --with-nsapi=/usr/netscape/server4 --with-oracle=/vol01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6 --enable-libgcc
The problem occurs when I issue ./start to netscape, I get the following error:
conf_init: Error running init function load-modules: dlopen of /usr/netscape/server4/bin/libphp4.so failed (ld.so.1: ns-httpd: fatal: relocation error: file /usr/netscape/server4/bin/libphp4.so: symbol tsrm_error referenced symbol not found)
I have tried configuring --with-tsrm-pthreads and I did not get an error when I issue ./start for netscape, however the page with xml code shows up blank in my browser after this happens.
I have played around with LD_LIBRARY_PATH trying to find where tsrm_error resides (multiple net searches also) and can not seem to find any useful information.
I researched a similar problem and the person that resolved it says that he had to 'add a patch for ZTS and use the --enable-experimental-zts flag'. I tried the --enable-experimental-zts flag with no success. I searched the net for ZTS and could not find a download.
Can anyone help? What is tsrm?
Thanks in advance,
Tony

Hi,
Here's one way:
for ($nr = 0; $nr < 5; $nr++) { if ($arr[$nr] == "foo") { $arr[$nr] = "bar"; /* otherwise it's infinite */ --$nr; continue; } }
By the way, This is not considered a Good Thing by anyone I know. Mostly it is just a waste of time--is it really necessary to do this? Not in this case, but it's just an illustration. Otherwise, if you are not careful, you'll get infinite loops or some other wierdness.

Hi,
I'm not sure if this is the proper forum for this question, if it is not, please let me know!
I have several sites that need to be upgraded from php3 to php4. In order to test compliance of the php3 code on php4, I need to know exactly which functions have different usage / results on php4.
I know that include() and rand() work differently, any others?
Does anyone know of an article / page in docs that explains this? There was a page like this on php.net when php4 was first released, but I can't find it anymore. The faq on this does not have any useful info.

This has been suggested before. What you will invariably find is that all users (beginner and advanced) will subscribe and post to the advanced list because the beginners will know there are people there who can answer any ?'s whereas there may not be on the beginner list...

April,
There was a discussion like in 1999 (i remember cuz I was learning PHP then), and Richard Lynch (i think) had a good point that splitting the list would reduce the quality of the answers on the beginners list--PHP newbies answering each others questions, you see.
Newbies should continue to post here. A tip: some developers preface their posts with something like: "newbie question". If you do this, you'll likely get flooded with friendly and helpful responses. Try it :)

I realize I'm a beginner, but even I can tell someone "how to pop up a browser window in php". But others take care of them pretty quickly, so there's no need to worry about it. Also, many of the people who go out of their way to answer questions on here who are advanced would probably just sign up for both list. And last but not least, don't forget the experts who would sign up for a newbie list just because they really like to hear themselves talk.
And getting flooded with answers is nearly as intimidating as getting in trouble. As is signing up and the first email out being something so advanced it's half developer.
I don't think it'd be quite as bad as you think it would be.

One suggestion for all newbies (and all) is this :
Search the archives
Search google
Figure out a few keywords that will be in the answer and/or question and do a search. Go here :
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-general
Q: "I want to redirect using php, how?" T: "redirect" or "redirection"
Q: "When i use rand() it not work, why???????" T: "random" or "rand" or "mt_rand"
Or, let's say PHP gives an error, search them too :
Q: Headers already sent, wtf?!!!!! T: "headers already sent" and/or "Cannot add header information"
Remember, the archive is HUGE so sift through the pages, use the navigation (next in thread, next => ...) and usually an answer will be found. YOU ARE NOT ALONE!
When using google, append the term "PHP" and guess what, it works! Google is amazing, it searches the entire world, all mailing lists, faqts, sites, etc. A little research goes a long ways and who knows what else will be learned during this process (hint: a lot). I digress. Want to play a little game? For every question you see, research archives/google and see how long it takes to find an answer. It's fun! But, each to their own. It's easy to get frustrated by repeat questions but we must realize it's not the same person asking over and over ...

oh look, someone's getting snippy with me for speaking on the list and admitting I'm a newbie already. Patronizing does get to be a reflex action after hearing the same question so many times, yeah. But if I can't post about the goodness/badness of having a newbie list and an advanced list, because I wasn't here in 1999 for the first one and had no idea it had happened, without being given tips on how to search google and get out of your hair while you discuss big boy things... If the volume is enough to make the experts snippy (which it does regularly), why are the experts this huge asset the newbies can't lose? If it's something that no one on the newbie list could answer, someone could just ask on the advanced list.
Anyway, on a trying not to be controversial and contrary note, where are the archives? People keep saying that, but I can't find any that work.

This is a public list and realize that :
a. Don't make assumptions b. Don't take anything personally Nobody here is directing "bad vibes" towards you and email communication is questionable, miscommunication runs rampent. So that said, nobody is partronizing you but rather are bringing up points of reference. We are 'discussing' not 'fighting' and tangents many times come about too.
The archive can be searched through the search on php.net and the link quoted below and of course through google (I don't work for google btw :)

Start a new thread when you have a question instead of merely hitting reply and rewriting the subject line. Am I the only one with a mailer capable of handling threads?

Hello! I'm running: WinNT4, IIS4, php 4.03pl1, and I'm trying to connect to MS SQL 7. Well, I configured the php.ini (extension=php_mssql70.dll), and I copy that .dll to the windows folder. Now I want to connect to the SQL and it doesn't work, it makes a time out. If I do the same things with php 3.0.17 it works fine. The code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">

<?php
$HOST = "the host";
$USER = "the username";

echo mssql_result( mssql_query("SELECT VERSION"), 0, 0);
}
if (!mssql_close())

Any solution? Thank you in advance . . .

Not sure if this helps but when I used PHP and SQL 7 I used odbc set of commands, not mmssql commands (i.e. odbc_pconnect and odbc_close etc).

hi michael,
if you read the PHP manual, i think it says something like "odbc_num_rows" might or might not return the correct number of rows after a "SELECT" statement. in the case of easysoft odbc driver (which is what we're using as well), odbc_num_rows always returns -1 on a SELECT statement (it does return the correct number of rows on INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE).
hope this helps. :)
btw, a quick question. have you been able to get the easysoft odbc driver to return a more informative error message when a SQL query fails? (usually it just says "statement could not be prepared", it would be far more useful if it actually returns the same error message that MSSQL 7's query analyzer returns)

Hello,
I'm trying to pass back a link to the user in a textbox (so they can copy and paste it elsewhere), however my textbox is being parsed incorrectly by the browser because of the " quotes which happen in the link I'm passing - basically the HTML for the text box is getting parsed together with the HTML for the passed link and .... the results are messed up.
How do you pass quotes to a textbox?
Thanks!
attached mail follows:
If you want to put a " in an echo statement, you need to escape it first by putting the / before it, like /"
The function addslashes does this for you.

Try write
WHERE [Start Construction Date] IS NULL OR [Actual Completion Date] IS NULL
or alternatively selecting both nulls and empty attributes with or without white spaces:
WHERE isnull([Actual Completion Date], '') = '' OR isnull([Start Construction Date]. '') = ''

Jason,
Thanks for the pointer. Worked like a charm, well almost. I had to tweak my .htaccess file as it was messing up some global variables cause i was using absolute URLS to point to my error script.
Someone else ask to see the script. You can check it at: http://www.social-ecology.org/404.txt The top part of the script actually does all the funky passing of error info to a selected email, and the bottom part is the page that is displayed upon a 404 error. You'll have to mess with your .htaccess so it looks something like this:
ErrorDocument 404 /404.php
Thanks again!

After some experimenting I find this 404.php program only shows the original missing file when the .htaccess file has the "ErrorDocument 404 /404.php" phrase. One might assume that putting this directly into the httpd.conf file of the Apache server would perform the same thing. Indeed, the value of where the link came from does survive, but the value of the missing file is always 404.php, not the actual missing page.
Strange.

Ah yes, this seems to stem from the fact the "ErrorDocument 404 /404.php" is really a kind if redirect. What's weird about this is if you use it one way (in the .htaccess) the PHP variables that appear are pre-redirect. If you put "Errordocument 404 /404.php" into the httpd.conf the PHP variables are post-redirect and are just as if you went straight to the 404.php page. I am sure I am missing some kind of Apache "point-of-view," but is it working for most of my URLs now. Some ancient CGI accesses come in now and again and they show this problem.
However, thanks for the idea and code. Even as just a 404 trigger, this is very useful. The emails are starting to show just how many old URLs exist on my servers.

Demand is rising, insanely. I left an NT Systems programming position for a PHP position. Not every company develops software, but almost every company can benefit from a website/presence.
Most "large organizations" like turnkey solutions from large "notable" companies. This is one of ASPs strongest points. However, as PHP grows, people will notice. Open Source ANYTHING still has a ways to go, but it's getting there.

Just some thoughts on this topic. I've ran a web development business for 6 years. I've seen demand for PHP grow exponentially in recent months. However, it still isn't anywhere near where it could be. I think the new Zend Products will help corporate acceptance and job growth. Right now when I look at sites like monster, hotjobs, guru.com, etc. there are few php listings. It is hard for clients looking explicitly for good php talent to find it easily. We used to get a number of good leads every month off of PHPBuilder.com's job board. However, it was taken down in recent months at parent company internet.com's request. I think we need a central site where people looking for contract work and full time employment positions can come and post jobs related to php. If anyone has a good domain idea or one already bought, I'd be glad to work with them on such a site. This type of site would need to be pushed by the community if they want to benefit from it. Just putting a job board up and letting it sit won't do the trick.

Perhaps the following site may help you in your quest for new employees that know not only PHP, but almost anything computer related, from beginners to advanced. If you haven't ran across it already, I think you might like it. Roam around it a bit: www.computerjobs.com.
Also, I am planning on starting up my own Web Development company, something small for now. I want to focus more on XML, Push Technology, and Wireless Communications. Do you have any tips to get me started? Thanks. :)

Right now when I look at sites like monster, hotjobs, guru.com, etc. there are few php listings. It is hard for clients looking explicitly for good php talent to find it easily. We used to get a number of good leads every month off of PHPBuilder.com's job board. However, it was taken down in recent months at parent company internet.com's request. I think we need a central site where people looking for contract work and full time employment positions can come and post jobs related to php. If anyone has a good domain idea or one already bought, I'd be glad to work with them on such a site. This type of site would need to be pushed by the community if they want to benefit from it. Just putting a job board up and letting it sit won't do the trick.

Great thread. When I was changing jobs in April of 2000, a recruiter told me that PHP is "cool and all", but there is zero demand for developers of PHP web apps (in Los Angeles). Although I've been very productive developing in PHP, he advised me to learn something else, b/c the demand just isn't there. I prefer PHP for my web dev, but I'm still curious how accurate he was.
I know that that Java/EJB/JSP and COM/ASP is in MUCH more demand, and therefore command a higher wage. Demand vs supply, right?. A search today on monster.com for ASP in LA yields 142 listings, Java yields 262, JSP yields 32, Perl yields 105, PHP yields 16, cold fusion yields 16.

Why do you not contact Brian Schaffner? On http://php.net/links.php there is a link to his "PHP Employment List".
Another suggestion, why not jobs.php.net? I think Rasmus doesn't have other opinions.

There was some discussion on this list a few months back re: an employer looking
for PHP coders. The job description on their site listed "PHP" as "an open source ASP". *MANY* "recruiters" don't know what the hell they're looking for, especially for smaller companies. They know they want result X and have heard 'java' is the answer, so they want 'java'. If they take the time to learn the lingo, and still want java, fine. But if they don't want to take the time to learn the options (benefits/drawbacks) then I wouldn't want to do business with them anyway.
I also got turned down for a job some time ago because I didn't program CGI. Perl? yes. PHP? yes. CGI - no. I was talking to a recruiter and he'd looked at what I knew and said, sorry, no job for "perl" people - we need people who can code in CGI. I walked out at that point.
In 1997, I saw a job posting in our local paper (detroit news) wanting people with 5 years Java experience.
When talking to potential clients, don't push PHP - push solutions. When they learn that an equivalent ASP solution will be an extra $7000 in licensing over the open source equivalent, they'll often go open source. But only after they trust that you can deliver the end result in the first place, language choice aside.
Obviously this doesn't work well with companies that already have a huge investment in one technology - people who dropped 5 figures on CF aren't going to throw it away tomorrow.

The demand for competent individuals who can deliver quality on time for a reasonable cost has gone up. Demand for people with particular language skills has, AFAICT, gone down.

We migrated two relatively large clients from ASP to PHP recently, and use it for all 'smaller' projects.

"if it doesn't crash my servers, use it". PHP definitely has a leg up over ASP.

i don't know about any function that does that, what i did with something simmilar is to automaticly generate a frames page that calls the script which then only performs 10 or so of the tasks. you can easyly have that page open 10 or so browserwindows. if you generate a framesmatrix 10*10 open 10 pages at least the time it takes will be devided by 1000 ( in avg.....)

Can someone explain to me why this does not work...
All pages on my site <?require?> header and footer files... the header file calls an <?include?> to config.inc and functions.inc
I have a function to connect to the db in functions.inc, that many other functions and includes use.
All works fine....
but, I have a login page similar to all other pages with <?require?> calls.. this page is entirely written from a function... Now, calls to functions from .inc files included in the login page (with me so far) do not work... My connect function will not connect...
writing this out I realize that it is seems quite complex, but my question is... can I not call functions from scripts that are included in a page that is itself written out from a function?

I would go with rawurlencode (serialize ($foo)), as the value, and I guess it will work.
BTW, why aren't you using the session support? In that case it will pass only the session ID,and the data associated w/ it will be un/serialized only on the server, w/o being passed back and forth.

What version of PHP are you using? From TFM:
Also note that the optional second argument was added in PHP 3.0.17 and PHP 4.0.3.

hi! i would like to read in a txt file in the frame index page and use it through a session in pages.
It does not work if index.php starts the session and succesfully registers a var, because a php page in a frame does not recognize the var.

When you define the index.php and load the frames go ahead and start the session and then pass the variables to the frame like this:
<frameset> <frame src="main.php?var1=test&var2=test" ...> <frameset> and then on main.php if you echo $var1 it will it will print "test"

I'm developing on Windows, and I have a bit of code that is designed to do a quick recursive read on a folder. An integral part of this is the use of the is_dir() function to decide if it should recurse or not.
DoIt('G:\\');
function DoIt($path){ $handle=opendir("$path"); echo "Directory handle: $handle\n<br>"; echo "Files:\n"; while (($file = readdir($handle))) { if (is_dir($file) and $file != '.'){ #otherwise the '.' will send it into a loop print "<dir>"; DoIt($file); print "</dir>"; } else { print "<li>".$file; } } closedir($handle); }
The problem I have is rather odd. It seems to work on one machine (a Windows NT 4 box) but on two others (one windows 98 and one NT4) the if_dir() function returns false for everything except the . directory.
Does anyone know why this would be?
thanks.

I've been a consultant for 20 years, and am experienced in PHP, mySQL, Unix, bind, Apache, DHCP, Diablo, VAX/VMS and some esoteric systems. My business has grown to the point where I can't do all the projects, and I want to build a team of reliable employees and/or contractors I can delegate to.
I'm looking for people who have experience solving business problems. That is, you should be able to analyze a problem and devise algorithms on your own. I am *not* looking for someone who just learned PHP and has no real-world problem solving experience.

I got started when I wanted to upgrade a site I co-run to some semblance of automation, so we got a guy who knew PHP to do it for us... He started working on a webn-page-in-a-template script, but wasn't able to finish it due to schoolwork. I decided to try my hand at it, so I looked at the code (thankfully, it wasn't as complicated as some of the stuff I see on here - oy vey), got a general idea of what everything did by looking at it, and started improving it. The online manual at http://www.php.net/manual/en/ was extremely helpful for looking up functions.

Hey there -
I was wondering what the recommended sites are to post/find jobs related to web development - especially PHP. The sites I've visited list mostly ASP and Java related jobs so I'm wondering where do the PHP folks go to find opportunities. While I'm not looking for a PHP expert, I'm looking for someone with good web skills and has at least some PHP experience (as well as the desire to learn more!). I'd appreciate any recommendations/advice.

Hey Brian-
Finding someone with past PHP experience is still difficult. Instead, look for people who are recreational programmers or who have a deep understanding of the mechanics behind HTTP. Whether they've worked with Java, ASP, Perl, Python, or any CGI-style environment is IMHO irrelevant. PHP as a language is not difficult to learn. Overcoming the inherant limitations of programming for the web seems to be the bigger hurdle. People don't need to have used PHP to conquer this hurdle. Either way, I'd be wary about making PHP experience a prerequisite.
The desire to learn is important. Some people come in to a PHP project with the misconception that "PHP sucks" and that their own future marketability as programmers is somehow being tarnished by virtue of the fact that they have to learn and use it. Write them off.

Hey guys. Can I firstly say, thanks to all of you who helped me out with my last question about importing MS Access databases into MySQL... It helped tons!
However, I have another question.
Firstly, I've strayed away from writing many of my own functions, because they give me the fear. But the code on the pages I am creating has forced me to wake up... I really sould think about cutting back on code.
SO, anyway, to cut to the chase, my question is this: If I write a function, which performs checks and assigns variable based on these checks, how do I get the assigned variables from within the function? For example (this is more than likely VERY wrong), something like this:
global.inc:
<?
function CheckBirthday() { global $year,$month,$day;
if (($day) && ($month) && ($year)) { if (checkdate($day,$month,$year) { $birthday = "$year/$month/$day"; } else { $birthday = "Invalid"; } } }
?>
File that would update / insert information to a MySQL database:
<?
// Connection details here
require("global.inc");
CheckBirthday();
$sql = "UPDATE MyTable SET birthday = \"$birthday\" WHERE id = \"$id\" ";
// etc
?>
Even when I KNOW that I have included correct values, the $birthday variable never shows up outside the function. It's probably something simple I'm missing, as in most cases ;)
Thanks for your patience,
James.

The specific answer to your question is that the variable $birthday is local to the function - check out variable scope in the manual.
But in fact there is another way of doing it - pass the values to check as parameters to the function and have it return a result, thus:
function CheckBirthday($year,$month,$day) {
if (($day) && ($month) && ($year)) { if (checkdate($day,$month,$year) { $birthday = "$year/$month/$day"; } else { $birthday = "Invalid"; } } return $birthday }
and to use it:
$result = CheckBirthday($year,$month,$day); $sql = "UPDATE MyTable SET birthday = \"$result\" WHERE id = \"$id\" ";
Those " around the variables probably should be ' if you are playing with mysql char fields.

Hi,
I've got a problem with the HTTP_REFERER. I'll explain it to you now.
I've got a site where I can't logon to to change some things. That site checks the HTTP_REFERER variable and if it matches with what's in the MySQL db it passes you through.
Now I've got a site which has to have access to that site. Is there a possiblity to change the referer in the httpheader?
I already tried header("Http-referer: www.name.com"); and header("Referer: www.name.com"); and so one, but the headers_sent() function keeps on returing false. (So headers aren't sent)
When I replace the referer for e.g. Location: www.name.com the header is sent (headers_sent() returns true)
Hope someone can help me.

You don't need to do anything - when the script terminates all that sort of thing is done for you by PHP. However, if you have a result set that may be using a bit of memory, and you have a lot more script after the result set is done with, you can use mysql_free_result. From TFM:
mysql_free_result - Free result memory
Description
int mysql_free_result (int result)
mysql_free_result() will free all memory associated with the result identifier result.
mysql_free_result() only needs to be called if you are concerned about how much memory is being used for queries that return large result sets. All associated result memory is automatically freed at the end of the script's execution.
For downward compatibility mysql_freeresult() can also be used.

Does anyone know how to integrate C++ and PHP if there are some data changes between PHP program and C++ program?

But there is one question: will php wait until C++ program finish if I use "system" function from PHP?
Is there any better way to do the integration?

Greetings!
I am currently working on a project that creates an FDF document on-the-fly.
The end user should beable to click on a link (something like
http://whatever.com/mydoc.html? The problem is: When a user clicks on the link, the fdf document either 1)
is displayed in plain text (despite the proper header being sent) or 2)
acrobat reader opens but displays an error saying the file can not be found.
I can right click on the link, and choose to save to disk. Once I have the
fdf document on disk, opening it will propely open its associated pdf and
fill in the fields.
Has any one had this type of problem before? could web cacheing be causing
this? could php sessions be influencing this?

attached mail follows:
I'm interested in the proposition made recently on this list that PHP is somehow a 'lightweight' language that some people don't take seriously. I am relatively new to Linux and open source programming and only really know PHP and some shell scripting, though I am now starting to explore Python.
I have had a quick overview of several languages and it seems to me that they all deal with the same basic components and logic:
variables statements flow control functions classes etc etc etc
So I'm wondering, apart from the fact that PHP is web centric, what features does the language lack that prevent some from taking it seriously? It appears to me to use the same basic elements and logic as any other programming language. Maybe it doesn't have tedious requirements for memory management like C, but so what? Neither does Python.
Any comments appreciated.

All -
Any easy way to take a string and fill the spaces in it? Say like a URLencoding:
This is my dog, Jack becomes This%20is%20my%20dog,%20Jack
I ask this as I would like to send a string to a perl function that can parse the string and create a hash from it based on delimiters I define. But if there are spaces in the string in between defined fields, it is thrown off.
BTW, I tried both ereg_replace() and str_replace() with no luck as below:
$my_string = "This is my dog, Jack"; str_replace(" ", "%20", $my_string);
$my_string remains with spaces, not %20s.
Thanks.
