    I see a lot of traffic regarding php hosting. From experience I know that
    the general hosting companies provide a minimal PHP environment which is
    often insufficient for PHP developers.
    With this in mind, I'm considering offering specialized hosting for PHP
    projects.

    The server will be tuned to the needs of PHP projects, and will have the
    latest PHP4 and mySQL versions, up to date XML libraries, IMAP and POP, and
    will run php as a apache module for performance. The server will have a low
    user count and I will offer migration alternatives as user's needs grow. The
    machines will be hosted at a major data center with multiple large internet
    feeds, and all the other essential requirements.

    I plan to be available to users to assist in configuration problems and will
    stay abreast of developments in PHP to make our projects run faster and
    better.

    I'd like to hear from people interested in participating or with
    configuration suggestions. I'm not looking to start a large hosting company
    but to be a specialized service provider on a small scale.

    Let me know what you think, guys.

    Chris,

    This all sounds good but for one thing: I firmly believe that one man
    with a root password is not enogh to look after even one client. I have
    hosted with 3 one-man-companies, and it always came to the point where I
    couldn't reach someone for a week, or I waited for 3 months, only to be
    granted connect privileges to the mysql database - no offense meant! I
    think it's just too much for one man, you cannot be available 24/7, and
    you will want holidays.

    Still, a PHP-specialized hosting environment would be worth much.

    Cheers,
    Ben

    I am going to have to disagree on this one.

    I run a successful (and profitable) hosting company(http://www.rolet.com).
    My employees total 1 (me, myself and I). The number of clients hosted is
    roughly 120. I provide a wide variety of services on Linux, FreeBSD, NT,
    and W2K. Yes it is hard to believe that 1 person can be available 24x7, or
    not take vacations, but this is what I do and LOVE every second of it. I
    value customer satisfaction and strive to provide that best Internet
    services possible. For me this is a career for life, not just a job. So I
    do believe that 1 person can be available 24x7 and not take vacations.
    Don't get me wrong, some days it is tough. I would like to have other
    employees in the future, but don't mind the sacrifices taken to get there.

    And if, God forbid, something was to happen to you... 120 People / Companies would be left with a server that no one knows the root password too?

    With all due respect, how can someone in his right mind host with a one man gang company?

    For all I know you can be a hosting genius and give the best service around but you are still one man.

    Would you host with you ? :)

    I shouldn't even reply to this...

    Yes I would host with me.

    Have you ever heard of a backup plan. People that would step in if something happens to me? People that I trust to keep the company going if it fails.

    With all due respect, how do people host with a company that doesn't give a rats ass about them or their business. How many big companies redirect your call, or brush you away when problems occur. I been over backwards for my clients. Providing better service then many of the bigger companies out there. That is why people do and will continue to host with me. Like I said, I plan on hiring people in the near future. Things take time to evolve.

    I am not saying that my company is for everyone. If you don't like a one man shop then don't go there. People have taken a chance with me and have not been disappointed like so many times before.

    Actually, there is nothing wrong with a one-manned hosting service. I agree with Robert in this, there are a lot of big hosting companies that don't really have a personal hold of their business to really care about their clients. To them everything is automated and all they do is hire customer service people who are only taught to, well, "serve customers" with answers to questions they don't know in the first place. They just read from the script and have basic step-by-step trouble shooting instructions in front of them to solve a client's problems/requests. If you need an updated software package, like PHP4, froman old PHP3 engine, you'de have to beg for it and you might have to go through several layers of support just for that request to go through. Let me remind you that the software is free of charge. If the request is accepted, then more power to you. If it's not then you'll have to deal with it until you decide to find another host.

    I have one question for you Robert. XML has been in the market for a long time (since 1998), and the recommendations are now set to a true standard. Why do most hosting services not have support for XML based languages yet? Thanks...

    I shouldn't even reply to this...

    Yes I would host with me.

    Have you ever heard of a backup plan. People that would step in if something happens to me? People that I trust to keep the company going if it fails.

    With all due respect, how do people host with a company that doesn't give a rats ass about them or their business. How many big companies redirect your call, or brush you away when problems occur. I been over backwards for my clients. Providing better service then many of the bigger companies out there. That is why people do and will continue to host with me. Like I said, I plan on hiring people in the near future. Things take time to evolve.

    I am not saying that my company is for everyone. If you don't like a one man shop then don't go there. People have taken a chance with me and have not been disappointed like so many times before.

    I am going to have to disagree on this one.

    I run a successful (and profitable) hosting company(http://www.rolet.com). My employees total 1 (me, myself and I). The number of clients hosted is roughly 120. I provide a wide variety of services on Linux, FreeBSD, NT, and W2K. Yes it is hard to believe that 1 person can be available 24x7, or not take vacations, but this is what I do and LOVE every second of it. I value customer satisfaction and strive to provide that best Internet services possible. For me this is a career for life, not just a job. So I do believe that 1 person can be available 24x7 and not take vacations. Don't get me wrong, some days it is tough. I would like to have other employees in the future, but don't mind the sacrifices taken to get there.

    Chris,

    This all sounds good but for one thing: I firmly believe that one man with a root password is not enogh to look after even one client. I have hosted with 3 one-man-companies, and it always came to the point where I couldn't reach someone for a week, or I waited for 3 months, only to be granted connect privileges to the mysql database - no offense meant! I think it's just too much for one man, you cannot be available 24/7, and you will want holidays.

    Still, a PHP-specialized hosting environment would be worth much.

    Cheers, Ben

    I looked through the archives and couldn't find anything on this.

    I have a web form which takes 9 values to create a definition for a table that would have up to 9 columns.

    I made the table so that each form field is submitted as an array so that I can simply step through each value and create the table definition, so:

    <input type=text name="tblcol[]"> (duplicated 9 times)

    Now, when I submit the form the resulting array always has 9 elements and some of those will be empty.

    I would like to do error checking in case people didn't fill anything at all so I thought using if (!count($tblcol)) {.... But that doesn't work since it always has 9 elements.

    Is there a way to find out if an array contains no values even though it has elements? Sort of like a trim() function on an array to destroy the elements in the array that are empty.

    Is it possible?

    Hi all, I'm in trouble checking client's value passed via a web form ...

    In a web form I usally use for the input's name a array var like this: <input type=text name=form[name] .. <input type=text name=form[email] .. <select name=form[country]> <option value=NONE>Select your country <option value=NONE>------------------- <option value=US>United State <option value=UK>United Kingdom ....

    and to generally check if some value is missing I use a simple routine like this:

    $manca=array(); foreach($array as $key=>$valore){ if(empty($valore) || $valore=="NONE"){ $manca[$key]++; } }

    where if $manca is greater then zero means that not all value was set ..

    My prob is that it never detects if the var $valore is equal to NONE ... I think that is due by my select field but at this moment I don't see how to correctly check if the passed values from it is a real value (as US,UK, etc.) or not (as NONE) ... any ideas?

    many thanks in advance max ------------------- Please Help Puppies ------------------- x

    if no "value" is specified, the text in the <option> field is taken as value, i.e. $form['country'] == "Select your country" etc

    LOL, I should have caught that. Check this article out...

    MSFT 60 13/16 -1 9/16 (2.51%)

    by Matthew Rothenberg, ZDNet News Is Microsoft's "XP" designation a castle made of sand? Will X mark the spot in this year's platform wars? According to my colleague Mary Jo Foley, Linux and Apple Computer Inc.'s Mac OS X may soon have some X-rated company, thanks to Microsoft Corp.'s assimilationist marketing department. Microsoft may not be ready to get jiggy with open-source programming or other excesses of its smaller OS competitors, but the company is apparently prepared to embrace the platform minorities' fondness for the least-used consonant in the alphabet: According to Foley, the next version of Microsoft Office for Windows will bear the moniker "Office XP" instead of "Office 10," and the Whistler Windows 2000 successor will be dubbed "Windows XP." Is the switch from 10 to X the result of residual DNA from Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen, whose worship of "Are You Experienced?" author Jimi Hendrix is as legendary as his fecklessness as a venture capitalist? Does it reflect Microsoft's own aspirations to rival the Roman Empire in its scope of influence? Is it a tacit acknowledgement that, whatever its triumphs, Windows will always be "Brand X" to a significant segment of the PC-wielding world? ZDNet News' TalkBack correspondents were quick to pipe up with their own (X) ratings of Redmond's move. Businessmen, they drink my wine Mac partisans were quick to note the coincidence of Microsoft's change of iconography and the arrival of Mac OS X, the next-generation Apple successor to Mac OS 9 that many of us have wilfully mispronounced for more than two years now. "Another Mac OS X rip-off by Microsoft," complained engineer "R.M." Not only is Microsoft trying to rip off the look of Aqua [Mac OS X's GUI] for Whistler; now they are going to start using the Roman numeral X for 10 in product names just like Apple. Wow! How original. Doesn't anybody at MS have a single idea of their own?" "It's pathetic how MS jumps on any bandwagon it can," agreed Robert Downs. "This X-naming thing takes the cake. What's next, iWindowsXP?" Hendrix aficionados were equally piqued by Microsoft's apparent effort to evoke the fallen guitar god. "'Not necessarily stoned, but beautiful,' " quoted Andy Citron, a Raleigh, N.C., computer programmer. "That's a line from the 'Are You Experienced' song. I can see folks having a field day with that." "May I suggest the Hendrix song 'Manic Depression' instead of 'Are You Experienced' for the next Windows launch?" added Glenn Parizot, an engineer who said he hails from the "third stone from the sun." Other readers--uninfluenced by the cultural legacy of Cupertino or Seattle--struck out in new directions when offering bon mots about Microsoft's plan. "Citrix is already using 'XP' as its moniker for its upcoming product formerly known as Metaframe 2.0," Denver systems engineer Armando Skeen pointed out. "Talk about confusion! I can see the questions now: 'Is Office XP specifically designed for Metaframe XP?' " Meanwhile, Randy Pugh, a Houston graphic designer, got down to brass tacks. "I'm confused," he confessed. "Maybe they should just name it Windows WTF or Office WTF." Got some naming suggestions of your own for Microsoft? Add them to TalkBack's cross-town traffic below!

    I noticed today that PHP apps run as the WWW user, not the User/Group specified in httpd.conf for virtualhosts.

    (Module version of PHP running in Apache 1.3.17).

    Is there any way to get the PHP module to assume the identity similar to the SUexec module will do for CGI?

    Thanks!

    Hi everyone..

    When i installed php 4.0.4pl1 i install it with --with-mysql --with-apxs arguments. Now... i wanna put --with-db2...

    It goes alright.. all... configure, make and make instal.. but.. it doesn't upgrade php.. in phpinfo() it have only --with-mysql --with-apxs arguments. What i need to do to upgrade it... I even try to purge config.cache but doesn't change nothing

    ANyone can help me?

    Tks... Sorry for the english - From brazil Scratched

    attached mail follows:


    Bom Dia Vinicius:

    Try this: before you reinstall PHP, make sure you delete the old config.cache file ... it is in the same directory where you do config/make/install. Don't worry, deleting this file is OK.

    Sorry for the redundant suggestion, I see you've already tried it. Dealing with as much mail as there is on this list, you can see that I often cut corners.

    If --with-db2 is not working, perhaps it is because you need to install the Berkeley database first.

    You might have gdbm (Gnome dbm) already installed (my RedHat 6.1 does), or maybe you can install it off a distribution CD. gdbm does much the same as the Berkeley database ... it is configured with:

    --with-gdbm

    Hope this helps

    You mean there are both /usr/include/linux/limits.h /usr/include/linux/errno.h

    If not, install the kernel-headers or kernel-source package

    I assume you mean Perl CGI - there are many programming languages that can run as a CGI. PHP installed as an Apache module will in general run scripts faster than a Perl CGI or PHP CGI. PHP works great for file handling scripts, though as your files grow you'll probably want to consider using databases instead of flat files.

    Hello:

    I'm trying to create dinamic color SELECT lists with php. I have my database set up as follows:

    Paint = good bucket = good weight = 100kg Colors = green, blue, red

    and here is my php:

    while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql_result)) { echo"<tr><td>"; echo $row["paint"]; echo"</td><td>"; echo $row["bucket"]; echo"</td><td>"; echo"<form action=\"http://www.\" method=\"POST\">"; $Color = $row["Color"]; if ($Color == $Color) { $option .= "<OPTION value=\"$Color\" selected>$Color</OPTION>"; } else { $option .= "<OPTION value=\"$Color\">$Color</OPTION>"; } echo"<select name=\"Colors\">"; echo "$option"; echo"</select>";

    as you can see I end up with a select menu with this "green, blue, red" as the only option.

    is there a way I can tell php3 to break it down at "," so I can actually have a drop down menu

    Replace this line:

    >$Color = $row["Color"];

    with this:

    $option = ''; $ColorArray = split(',' $row['Colors']); while (list(, $Color) = each($ColorArray)) { # yes, the comma in the list() should be there!

    >if ($Color == $Color) { >$option .= "<OPTION value=\"$Color\" selected>$Color</OPTION>"; >} else { >$option .= "<OPTION value=\"$Color\">$Color</OPTION>"; >}

    and add this here:

    }

    >echo"<select name=\"Colors\">"; >echo "$option"; >echo"</select>";

    For more information, see

    http://www.php.net/split

    Oh - and just in case the 'Colors' column is empty, you might want to do the while statement like -

    while (is_array($ColorArray) && (list(, $Color) = each($ColorArray))) {

    - since split() won't return an array if there's nothing to split.

    How can you get something like:

    header ("Location: $PHP_SELF?");

    to redirect with the sessid in the url? In my tests, it redirects, but does not append the sessid.

    I have compiled with --enable-trans-sid. Transparent sid is working, I can use it on links like:

    <A HREF="<?php echo "$PHP_SELF?"; ?>">

    and it works. I have put this on the links on my page, so that the session will be kept even if the user has cookies disabled. But if the user (who has cookies disabled) clicks on the browser back button, they go back to the first page and start a new session.

    Is there a way to redirect this first page back to itself quickly, with the sessid in the url, so that even a user with cookies disabled will not lose the session if they use the browser back or reload buttons?

    Thanks, Doug

    Hi Ade,

    To combine strings, you simply use a period. For example:

    $image = $frame . "top.gif";

    If $frame is "hello", then $image will come out as "hellotop.gif".

    Hope that helped...

    Is the variable a user defined variable? If so, my guess is the error reporting level for the two servers is different. See the error handling section of php.ini and see if the default settings differ b/w the two servers. Also see error_reporting() if you're explicitly using that function. If the variable is a PHP or environment variable perhaps the variable is available on Apache, but not on Win2k. I have very little experience with PHP on Windows so it could be something else, but that's where I'd start.

From the Front Page, click on The Columnists, then look for "Macedonian Diary.")

    **There's a big page of Bushisms and a free Bushisms screensaver guaranteed to irk the Republican in the next cubicle.

    **Another feature is Abortion Watch, a running chronology of the Bush II administration's assault on a woman's right to choose.

    There are several newsgroups on PHP, but the only one I'd recommend is the most active of them, <news:alt.php>. The others tend to have much less traffic, and almost all of that is stuff cross-posted or multi-posted to alt.php anyway.

    Hi..

    I have a routine where we input text to fields. When there is an apostrophe it handles it correctly. When the form is brought back for editing, the field values show up in the input fields, with all apostrophes intact, just as it should be.

    When I upload this script to my isp, it doesn't work.. The apostrophes truncate the rest of the text. 'Don't cry over spilled milk', in a field, turns into 'Don'...

    I have php4 mod in my win32 devbox. The isp is php3. Is this the problem? What is the best way out of it please?
