So essentially what you're doing is taking data from a database and building
static pages based on this data as events occur? One alternative is to pull
the webpage contents directly from a database in realtime. Another is to do
the same, but cache the webpages and only pull from the database if a query
condition is met or the timestamp on the cache is older than an acceptable
age. Your method takes extra storage space, probably doesn't easily allow
for the presentation of the pages to be changed and involves a disk write on
top of a database query. If you don't want to pass hidden variables or
variables in the URL query string then if you have Apache you can use its
rewrite capability to create "virtual" webpages. For example, see my site
http://www.sexcriminals.com/. All of the pages under "Sex Offender
Registries", "News Articles", "Books", and "Useful Sites" are pulled from a
MySQL database and are being handled by a single PHP script that Apache is
directing all web accesses to and which parses the URL to determine what
content to show. Maybe something like this would work for you. Then each
person would have a unique static-appearing page.

Hello!

I am very new to php programming. I have been experimenting around with php's mail function and html forms.

I have a generic HTML form with user_name, email_address, comments, and like_site as inputs on the HTML form. I have the following code in a seperate php file which the form calls:

<?php

$msg = "Sender's Full Name:\t$user_name\n"; $msg .= "Sender's Email Address:\t$email_address\n"; $msg .= "User Comments:\t$comments\n"; $msg .= "Did you like the site?\t$like_site\n\n";

$mailheaders = "From: My Web Site\n" 9>$mailheaders .= "Reply-To: $email_address\n\n";

mail("cangereribsys.com", "Feedback Form", $msg, $mailheaders);

echo ("Thank you $user_name\n<br>"); echo ("I appreciate your feedback\n\n");

for some reason I get a parse error on line 9. If I remove the mailheaders variables the PHP script works just fine and emails the form to the correct address. Any help on this would be appreciated.

It is probably something qyite simple. I just don't see it though.

Thanks.

Not true. They (quotes inside a string) only need to be escaped if they are the same style as the quotes enclosing the string. And for those that don't know what "escaping" is it means prefixing them with a backslash (\). So if you enclose a string in double quotes single double quotes must be escaped and if you enclose a string in single quotes single quotes in the string must be escaped. And enclosing a string in single quotes has a different effect than enclosing in in double quotes. See a post I made yesterday about this or search the archives for more details.

It doesn't hurt to make the change above, but it doesn't help with the actual problem (missing semicolon).

Hi Ryan,

You could try REPLACE INTO in combination with a select from the second table, instead of UPDATE. For the exact syntax see http://www.mysql.com/doc/R/E/REPLACE.html

Maybe you can fit it to your needs.

The table "extended" is not known to the update command. You shoud use a syntax like this:

UPDATE table1 SET table1.field1 = (select field2 from table2 where table2.id=table1.id).

Nick,

I'm not sure were you are getting the value of $PHP_AUTH_USER from, so you might want to try this snippet. This causes a dialog box to open and ask for a username/password.

Also, in your code: you do not need to escape the quotes in the header.

Well, I have compiled a php binary for use as yet another scripting language to work along side AWK, Perl, Sh, etc.

It works too. I have this file...

#!/usr/local/bin/php <? print("Hello World\n"); ?>

I run it and get..

host:~/projects/PHPScripts # ./test.php Content-type: text/html

Hello World

Great. Now how do I get rid of the Content-type line? I have searched the docs with little clues.

Thanks for your help.

This is just a guess, but remove the path (#!/usr/local/bin/php)

If you have the php.ini and (I'm assuming Apache) the httpd.conf file configured you shouldn't need it.

I never have used it. It looks like the Perl way to script... :)

#!/usr/local/bin/php -q

Is what you do. Annoyingly, though, this does not work if you use PHP this way for CGI Programming . . .

1. In php.ini, set "expose_php = Off" 2. Restart Apache.

As of PHP 4.0.4 the function array_sum() exists (it's undocumented, but in changelog), it's used as such :

$array = array(1,3,5);

$sum = array_sum($array);

Or loop through array as such :

foreach ($array as $value) {

$sum += $value; } Either way, $sum now equals 9. For info on how all the above works, see :

Try this:

for($i=0;$i < count($the_array); $i++) $sum = $sum + $the_array[$i];

or if the index of your array is not in order, try this:

while($element = array_pop($the_array)) $sum = $sum + $element;

Hope that helps. Rdb

Hi List

As I am working on the upgradation of my system into PHP 4.0 from the lower version, I want the Change log in a good format. A word document or some other good format which comprises the complete the Change log would be great for me to look through and do the upgradation process in the right direction. As I got the change log from php.net, I couldn't format them perfectly as I wanted, bcoz I want print it out also. But the formation is not good enough.

Could some body send the good formatted change log to me (if you have), so that it'll b helpful to me for the upgradation process.

Thanks in adv.

Hi, I'm wondering if anybody can give me the advantages of using OCI* function over ORA* function. I mean, in term of speed and efficiency. The documentation does n't say a lot about this. I have my API using ORA* funct. for my development team. I'm thinking of rebuilding it using OCI*, but wondering if it worths the effort. Is it really faster?

Thanks for any answer/comment you can give me. Reuben D. Budiardja

i never heard anything about speed difference, but as far as i remember OCI supports some things that don't work with ORA ( lobs, stored procedures,pl/sql,etc) and i think OCI is still improved and developed while ORA is not.

It calls a class method statically, although its exact behavior depends on the scope from which it was called. If called from outside a class, then the method has no instanciated object, it's just a function.

This is also how you can use work with inheritance in PHP. If you have an instanciated subclass, you can use parent::blah() to call the inherited (and overridden) methods.

Hello,

Is there any way around having to go back and backslash every quote in a html table that contains millions of quotes? I noticed that <pre> print " his name's jack"; </pre>

works for a single quote, but not double....

I would literally have a thousand quotes to back slash... My only other alternative is to take the table into Star Office and do a replace on ".

Thanks for any replies.

attached mail follows:

Uhmm.... well, you don't have to use print to display HTML. If you did there would be no reason for the <? ?> tags. <? ?> switches between HTML (which is not parsed by the interpreter and PHP code (which is interpreted).

Basically, print is used when you have to print a variable.

For instance name.php <? print "<b>My name is $myname, and his name is $hisname</b>"; ?>

Is the same as name.php: <b> My name is <? print "$myname"; ?> and his name is <? print "$hisname"?> </b>

If you have a ton of html that has some variables in it... just paste in your html and where the variables (ie $name) will be printed just insert <? print "$name"; ?> between the HTML.

If this is still confusing to you, you should read a intro to PHP tutorial.

To the best of my knowledge, they do the same thing. I believe echo was started back in the early days of PHP. Print has now replaced it with more functionality. Echo still exists because some people are used to it and for compatibility with older code.

for( $i = 0; $i < sizeof( $arg ); $i++ ) { if( $arg[$i] == '' ) { continue; } if( preg_match( "/^\d{4}-\d{4}$/", $arg[$i], $matches ) ) { $season = $matches[0]; } elseif( preg_match( "/^[a-zA-Z]+$/", $arg[$i], $matches ) ) { if( ! isset( $display ) ) { $display = $matches[0]; } } elseif( preg_match( "/^\d+$/", $arg[$i], $matches ) ) { $value = $matches[0]; } elseif( preg_match( "/(div\d|prem)/", $arg[$i], $matches ) ) { $division = $matches[0]; }echo $arg[$i]."***<br>"; echo $division; }

The first 3 work fine, but the last one "/(div\d|prem)/" doesnt work properly. It does work if I have say div1, but if I have prem it doesnt work at all. I have tried changing the regex so it only contains "/prem/" and it still doesnt work. can anyone tell me what is wrong with this code, or is it just a bug in my version of php?

Thanks in advance,

Lee Stretton.

Your earlier test for "/^[a-zA-Z]+$/" catches any string that is all letters from beginning to end. Thus a string == "prem" would be caught above, and never reach the test for "/(div\d|prem)/".

Isn't this \d+ matching ----------^ > { > $value = $matches[0]; > } > elseif( preg_match( "/(div\d|prem)/", $arg[$i], $matches ) )

the \d in this-----------------^------------^

And the | is using '\d' and 'prem'. It probably should be "/(div\d)|prem/ Unless those parens are part of the expression. Then maybe "/$(div\d)|prem$/" MD

No. the 1st expression is /^\d+$/ , i.e. match strings with at least one decimal number and nothing else (\d+) from their beginning (^) to their end ($) I.e. that one only catches strings consisting only of decimal digits.

No, that's fine. (div\d|prem)

means "match either 'div\d' or 'prem'" and memorize that part

Make your PHP script push an HTML formatted tmp file, run it through html2ps, (then perhaps ghostscript to make it PCL et al) and redirect it to your printer. (Or, then run ps2pdf on it and also email a PDF order confirmation page to your customer . . . the potential is limitless.)

You could skip several steps by writing the PS/PCL handler template class yourself, but that's a lot of work.

Or . . . you could make a gif using GD primitives and your data, then push this to ghostscript for PDF or postscript or PCL or bubblejet . . .

Oh Ye Wizards,

I'm toying around with the thought of a dev-site/live-site administration system. Among other things, administrators would be able to remotely (via a web interface), push files from the dev-site to the live-site.

Can anyone help me understand what it would take to do this? Ideally, we could come up with a platform-independent solution, but I'm currently working with 2 NT boxes.

I suspect this would be possible by using exec() or possibly shell_exec() to mount the remote volume and perfom file copies. If this would work, can anyone help me with the syntax?

Any insights?

thanks,

michael geary

so that way I can have a general purpose way of calling a parent constructor like "super()" or whatever. It seems silly to hardcode the name of my parent class into the code of the class besides in the "extends" part in the definition. that way if I change the hierarchy, I don't have to worry about changing the constructor, it just always points to the parent.

sorry if that isn't clear.

Hello all,

Please bear with me for a moment. I am new to PHP work, but have over 10 years experience in various other programming languages including C/C++

I'm just getting really frustrated here, and i'm hoping its a simple mistake. What I am running into is that ever file I open and read from, I never actually get any data. I know the data is in the file, but I don't get it. I can write to it fine.

Basic scenario is this...I have 2 modules, one that creates my data and one that reads it. I'm setting up a system for book reviews. The first module has a forms page that gets the book's ASIN, TITLE, and DESCRIPTION. There is a common books directory. The module creates a subdirectory off of this dir, and the sub dir's name is the ASIN of the book. In this new sub directory a file is created that contains 3 lines. The ASIN, the TITLE, and the DESCRIPTION, each seperated by a newline (\n). This seems to work fine.

The second module is one that will display everythign to the users, and eventually allow user submitted reviews. This module opens a directory handle for the common books directory, and enumerates each subdir (skipping '.' and '..'). It then attempts to open the information file in each subdir that was created above, and display the results. Its always empty. I can include code if requested, but here are a few snippets of the immediate areas..

first module 1 which does the saving of info:

case 'save_info': if ($book_file = fopen("$booksdir/books.dat", "a")) { fwrite($book_file, $asin); } fclose($book_file); if ($book_file = fopen("$thisdir/book_info.dat", "w")) { fwrite($book_file, "$asin\n$title\n$description"); } fclose($book_file); break;

and the module 2, the reads: // get directory handle $dir_handle = opendir($thisdir); $books = array(); // load valid book directories into an array while($book_file = readdir($dir_handle)) { if ($book_file != "." && $book_file != ".." && is_dir("$thisdir/$book_file")) { $books[] = $book_file; echo "<p>Added: $book_file"; } } // loop through books and create HTML entry for each $index = 0; for ($index = 0; $index < sizeof($books); $index++) { $book_data_file = fopen("$thisdir/$books[$index]/book_info.dat", "r"); echo "<p>Opened $thisdir/$books[$index]/book_info.dat</p>"; $book_data_in = fread($book_data_file, filesize($book_data_file)); echo "<p>book_data_in = $book_data_in</p>"; fclose($book_data_file); $book_data = explode("\n", $book_data_in); echo "ASIN:"; echo "$book_data[0]"; echo "<br>"; echo "Title:"; echo "$book_data[1]"; echo "<br>"; echo "Description:"; echo "$book_data[2]"; echo "<p></p>"; }

If anyoen can clear this up for me, I would most appreciate it. I'm on a tight deadline, learning PHP as I go, and losing my mind on this seemingly simple excersise!

Obviously, James has answered your question, but I'm curious as to why you aren't using a database for this particular task?

Another suggestion, for the actual book data file(s) is to just include the 'cosmetic' information in with the actual $book_data when you write it to disk.

IOW, instead of doing this:

$book_data = explode("\n", $book_data_in); echo "ASIN:"; echo "$book_data[0]"; echo "<br>"; echo "Title:"; echo "$book_data[1]"; echo "<br>"; echo "Description:"; echo "$book_data[2]"; echo "<p></p>";

Why didn't you just write that information to the file from the very beginning?

If you were to do that, all you'd need to do is use include() instead of 'module 2, the reads'

It just seems like that would be a lot less painful. -Brian

When you compile PHP, you also need to include the --with-aspell flag (similar to how you did to include MySQL support).

The solution ended up being the need to re-compile php with the "--enable-discard-path" configure option. This removed the "#!/usr/local/bin/php" line from the top of the file.

Hi,

Functions are separate blocks of code from the rest of the file. If you declare a function or variable inside a function (as you do here, since you include the file which contains a function inside the function) it will not be available to the rest of the script.

I think. :-)

Ok, I'm new to programming in PHP. What I'm trying to do is retrieve the song list with play links off of my bands' page at Mp3.com. Ultimately I want to build it into a function I can call with an array of song names and it will return the html formatted as I like

So far, I've used this code to open the page and get the part of the code with the song links in it:

-----------------------------------------------------------

$url="http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/66/wildcraft.html";

$lines_array=file($url);

$lines_string = implode('', $lines_array);

eregi('(.*)',$lines_string, $out);

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now, I want to take $out[0], and delete all of the special mp3.com stuff like "Add to my mp3.com" and things like that. Basically, I've been trying to take the chunk of code, which repeats for each song, and replace it with code that just closes the tables and prepares for the next entry. This is the line I've tried:

echo eregi_replace('<td><phrase><a href="http://my.mp3.com(.*)</tr></table>', '</td><td nowrap></td></tr></table></td>',$out[0]);

What happens though is it takes the chuck out of the first occurance, and then prints the rest of the page unchanged. I want to do further formatting to the code after I remove these chunks though, such as replacing the img reference links and such.

I'm starting to think I'm going about it wrong in the first place. I'm thinking I should just pull out the m3u and mp3 links, and use them within my own formatted page. It also occured to me to go through $lines_array line by line turning printing on and off with a flag. But the script is already fairly slow and even though I'm going to put it into a frame, I don't want it to take for ever to run.

Anyway, if anyone has any suggestions or wants to help me develop this script, I could really use some help because I'm stuck right now.

Thanks,

This is what I ended up doing. Basically what I needed this for is I've got a class that prints out a blurb of javascript and a "<form>". I wanted to make it so that each instance of a class would work with it's own data. This would require that the name of the javascript function and the name of the form be different for each class instance. If I was able to get the name of the class, it would have been all good, I wouldn't have needed to add another paramter to the constructor. But since I cannot, I needed the additional paramter.

The class is actually kind of cool. It sets up and executes the sorting of table columns based on a mySQL query. My problem was if I needed to tables using 2 different queries, when I clicked on a column heading in one table, it would try to sort that column in both classes, both queries. I got around this by adding the additional argument, as I mentioned above.

I have had experience with ASP apps that sometimes I'll create some scripts, say a script does multiple operations. And I want it to print to the screen after each operation is done.. The user would get a running list.

Doing operation..... Done Doing this.... Done Etc

With ASP it does it as you see it, with PHP it seems to do it all and the print to the screen. Is there a way to get PHP to do the same as ASP or is that just the way PHP works?

Use flush(); each time you want the latest output to be sent to the client. This works only with PHP as a Webserver-Module, not as CGI.

$replaced = preg_replace ('/(href\s*=\s*(\'|\"))(.*?)(\\2)/i', "\\1\\3${urladdition}\\2", $matches);

On a match, $matches [0] will contain the entire pattern, $matches [1] the first subpattern (everything from href to the opening quote), $matches [2] the opening quote char and $matches [3] the URL.

$sql = "SELECT * FROM table WHERE $search_criteria LIKE '%$search_input%' ORDER by $search_criteria ASC";

At the moment, if the search criteria was "First_Name" and the text ($search_criteria) was "ch", the returned query contains any name containing "ch". The trouble is, if the name you are after is Chris ...., you might get a result like:

id 1 CHris etc etc id 2 RiCHard etc etc id 3 CHris etc etc

In other words, it seems to be sorting where the instance of the CH comes in id number rather than alphabetically. Is there a way of making the query (using wildcards or without) if someone types in "a", the list will return alphabetically with, like:

a aa ab abc ac ace ade

I'd explain more, but I really have to go. Sorry. Hope you can help, as most of you often do :)

Greets all,

I have been playing around with LDAP sorting, but I can't seem to get it to work. Essentially, I do an ldap_search() with a filter condition, and use a ldap_get_entries() to get all of the results. The ldap_get_entries() function returns a multi-dimensional array contain my result set. I am assuming it looks something like this:

Entries = array( "count" => x, array( array ( "sn" => "Mowat", "givenname" => "Jason", ... ), array ( "sn" => "Anderson", "givenname" => "Peter", ... ), array ( ... ) )

Now, I want to sort all of the internal "person" data by "sn". But, when I try usort, it does not work. I have tried uasort as well. Basically, I need to be able to sort a nested array without touching the outside arrays based on a value in the nested array's element..

The examples I have seen on the 'Net don't seem to work (for me anyways). I have even copied them verbatim, and I get the same results. I'm not sure if their Entries array is the same as mine. Mine is the Entries returned from ldap_get_entries().

Any help is appreciated!

read the manual on handling file uploads. It looks like you're using $image_name which is the original image name on the client where you want $image which is the temporary file name on the server. If your server is running on the machine you access the form from it may look like things are working right when they aren't.

Hello.

Do you know where I can find a list of all file extensions used today? Like: .gif .htm .php .doc ...

Is there an organisation, like ICANN, that decide who can use these file extensions and what you need to do to register one of your own?

No. People use whatever file extensions they like.

MIME-types do what you need. But they don't belong to the filename.

So, If I create a 3D-program, I could say that file extensions for this program will be .pdf (not a prefered extension, but still)? Is it more a question of getting your file extension as widely used as possible, so other companies dont bother using them, since most computers have them associated with an other program?

Basically, what he's saying is that the extension can be anything. It's only convention (and only on pc/unix) where it's important to determine what kind of file it is. On advanced filesystems, such as HFS+(mac), beFS(beos), and such the type of file is kept as an extended attribute and you can call your jpeg image myimage.doc and it will still get sent to the correct application when you double click on it. I think ntfs and hpfs have the ability to do this, but it's not implemented.

Mime types are things like tex/html and image/jpeg that describe what kind of file you're dealing with. They are what beFS uses to keep track of what's in a file.

The reason for extensions is that in unix/windows/dos, all files are the same, they have no type, they're all just a string of bytes, and the original inventors or unix needed a way to tell one file from another.

Yes. More or less.

> > MIME-types do what you need. But they don't belong to the filename. > > What do you mean by this?

Browsers are among the programs which do not identify files, which are sent to them, by the filename extension, but by the so called MIME-type. This MIME-type is not part of the file or the filename, but an exterior description of the file. In this case, the MIME-type is sent via the HTTP-headers. This way, a php-script can be anything, plain-text, HTML or an image, by just sending a header like: header("Content-type: image/gif"); or header("Content-type: text/plain");

Default is header("Content-type: text/html");

If you want a list of all MIME-types or something like that, try asking someone who knows, or google.com.

Hi,

I've been looking at using PHP but am unsure if it will do what I want. What first attracted me to PHP is the claim that I can embed PHP code within my html file and have it build dynamic content. Perhaps someone on the list can confirm that ic can do as follows:

I have a web page that contains various graphics and text. At the bottom of the page, I have a table of one row by two columns. Using PHP

and MySQL (I already know that PHP can access MySQL databases), I want to read data from a table and dynamically grow my table (add several rows, each with two columns).

So I am guessing that I will be inserting PHP code and HTML code intertwined?

IS PHP my ticket for accomplishing the above?

It is one possible solution to your problem, yes. ASP, JSP and ColdFusion can do this as well, but being a PHP-lover I would recommend PHP. Hell, I know _why_ I love PHP...

Hey everyone,

I just released phpdoc v2.0, which is a program used to document PHP class definitions. This version is a complete rewrite of v1.0, and takes a different approach to creating documentation.

Where most other applications try to imitate Javadoc as much as possible, this application actually does very little, because it actually uses Javadoc to create PHP documentation. Since the Javadoc API is quite open, and since my application is in Java, its a simple matter to plugin to the Javadoc program. All my application does is parse a PHP class definition through the use of regular expressions, and then convert that class definition from PHP syntax to Java Syntax, then hand the converted source over to Javadoc. What this means is that all the options and power of Javadoc is available to my program, you can use any Javadoc option, doclet, tag or whatever in phpdoc and in your source and the resulting documentation will be no different then if an actual .java file were passed to Javadoc. All is explained in greater detail at my site, and in instructions I provide.

A final note, the library of Javadoc doclets are also open to you when using phpdoc. For anyone whom doesnt know, doclets are programs written in the Java programming language that specify the content and format of the output of the Javadoc tool. By default, Javadoc uses the Standard doclet which creates the .HTML formatted documentation were all used to. You can provide any doclet you wish however to customize the output however you like. The wealth of third party doclets available at the javasoft site allow you to create for example RTF, PDF, and even Japanese based API documentation.

You must have the JDK installed on your system (of which Javadoc comes part of)

You can download phpdoc v2.0 at http://www.callowayprints.com/phpdoc/phpdoc.php

thttpd is a GREAT server. I have a phpMyAdmin rpm including thttpd with php support, for easy MySQL administration of sql servers that don't want/need the weight of apache.

Occasionally I see Alan Cox posting to the thttpd list as well, so it must have something ;)

I've never used thttpd under heavy load, but everything I gather, it really does quite well, and it *is* faster than apache.

What would be nice is if you could set up an apache alias to a full url (maybe you can- i've never tried- but I haven't heard of it either) in the httpd.conf file- as it would make image and static page serving from thttpd that much easier...

There are two ways of doing sessions, only two

cookies and ugly urls.

it doesnt matter if your crossing 8 domain names, or sticking to one, there are only two options.

Are these domain names on the same server? yes? great then we can work with this. you'll have to either disable cookies (cookies work per domainname) or write some code to handel forcing the PHPSESSID....

<?php

include_once('time.egn');

if ( isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['PHPSESSID']) ) session_id($HTTP_GET_VARS['PHPSESSID']);

if ( isset($HTTP_POST_VARS['PHPSESSID']) ) session_id($HTTP_POST_VARS['PHPSESSID']);

session_start();

if (!isset($HTTP_SESSION_VARS['SessionID'])) { $SessionID = mtime(); session_register('SessionID'); }

if (!isset($PHPSESSID)) $PHPSESSID = session_id();

$SID = "PHPSESSID=$PHPSESSID"; ?>

now when you wan to force the SESSIONID across domains go like this.

<? echo " <a href='http://www.mediawaveonline.com/index.php?$SID'>Mediawaveonline.com</a> "; ?>

now as long as the domainname is on the same server, this will work.

Hello again,

I have a form that is used to submit data to my script. If the user enters something like:

The title of this book doesn't really matter to "me"!

When I get that back, and read it from the file, it always ends up like:

The title of this book doesn\'t really matter to \"me\"!

Note the addition of the escape sequences. How can I stop this? Is there some function in PHP? Or am I goign to have to write a character routine to strip out escape sequences? <shudder>

run $blah = stripslashes($blah);

PHP automatically does the equivalent of addslashes() to all form submits.

addslashes and stripslashes are the functions you need.

Very simple.

If magic_quotes_gpc is on, PHP does an addslashes() on all stuff that comes in via HTTP GET, HTTP POST or a cookie. And, there's a lovely function get_magic_quotes_gpc() that tells you its status.

So:

if (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) { // Magic quotes is on, we don't want stuff escaped. $value = stripslashes($value); }

This is handy to use in your script even if you know the way your system is set up in php.ini - if you port your script to another server that is set up differently, then it'll still work as you expect.

Hey all,

I got this massive query, which I hope you'll be able to understand:

SELECT diary.id, diary.thedate, diary.topic, diary.entry, count(comments.id) AS comments FROM diary, comments WHERE diary.month='$month' AND diary.id = comments.id GROUP BY comments.id ORDER BY diary.id DESC "

Basically what I've done is made a diary table, and allowed people to comment on each diary entry, with the comments stored in a seperate comments table. What i'm doing there is getting the diary entry, plus the number of comments posted for that entry.

Now the problem is that this query only displays entries from the diary table when a comment is added for that entry, otherwise it comes up with a blank, because (diary.id = comments.id) isn't true.

Now, is there a way to make sure that it displays all diary entries anyway? because if i remove that check (diary.id = comments.id) - then all the numbers come up messed up.

Thanks Sunny

Q: Does anyone know of a way to test for undefined variables? For example, I am sending a variable into the page, but the processing of the page depends on what is being passed to the page.

Say, I am typing the following on the location bar: index.php?fuseaction=something&fuse=6

and I want something to happen if fuse is actually declared, and something else to happen if fuse is not defined.

I have tried isdef(), but that function does not seem to work, and I couldn't find it in the manual when I was looking for it.

Code to use on:

if($HTTP_GET_VARS("fuse") == NULL) then do something; else do something else;

Q: Also, does anyone know how to rename a variable?

I want to create a variable $attributes_NameOfVariable, but it does not seem to work. is there a function that exists in PHP that will assist me in this process?

Thank you for all of your help, and thank you for your time,

Not sure if this is hat you are looking for, but I do something similiar in my script. Its set up so that the action of the script depends on whether or not the ASIN was passed in..

if(isset($asin)) { $mode='save_info'; }

that way if something like: "book_reviews.php?asin=000129091" is called, then it will save the information, but if "book_reviews.php" is passed, then its not defined and it goes to a different mode (which in my case is a form to get the information)

Hello Everybody,

Does anybody know or have some PHP code to read the htaccess file. I have a couple of directorys protected by the htaccess & htpasswd files on the Unix Apache server I use. But I want to create a webpage with input boxes to simulate the popup dialog that appears when entering the protected areas.

So rather than enter the username & password in the dialog I want to enter them in a webpage. Its all for looks, to give the site a user friendly asthetic look.

Please help.

Pretty please....

Chris
