I hate to muck them up with a bunch of tests for empty vars, which then
need to be replaced with NULL and have the single quotes ommited, etc. if
there is some more graceful way?

Hi,
I don't have adequate space to have PHP and MySQL on my local machine. Yes, need a new and better box. So, used my net site for some exercises. That is not satisfactory because I must reveal password and such in plain text to execute a php/mysql script.
Maybe only a resource poor newbie could have this problem -- means I need to have some hurry up instruction on getting those secret words hidden -- or I should not continue with exercises and tutor. There is nothing on my site or in my database that is sensitive in any way -- but don't want to find it all gone or altered.
Also, I can download some manuals, but I cannot save the .pdf variety or find the temp file to save it. Any suggestion? I'm on WIN95 with a Toshiba Laptop and do have the adobe acrobat reader and MS Office.
Is there a tutorial on this "include" subject that I can find and use? I'm on digest mode so please CC or direct to me.

There's not much to it - the docs are failry explanatory. Just remeber
that when you include or require a file, the contents of that file are
'placed' in the current file at the location of the function call. If
there is PHP syntax in the included file, it must have PHP start/finish
tags (<?php ?>) around it for the PHP to be run.
You can include a file from pretty much anywhere, including especially
outsite your webserver document root. So for some security, put your
passwords etc outside the web root. Also, see the php.ini file if you
have access to it for how to define a search path for include files.
As for downloading the manuals, try right clicking and choosing the 'Save
Link as' function - or however it's called under Exploder.

Subject: [PHP] XML Parsing through Proxy
Hi Anybody got an idea?
I am sitting behind a proxy and I want to able to parse an XML. So I have to use fsockopen() to get through my firewall and get the page. So far, everything goes wel, but I am not able to parse the file, because I think it is not in XML format if I use "GET http://.... " Does anyone has an idea how I can solve this?

Try this: $test{$i}text = $i;
(I'm not sure if this actually works)
or
$varname = 'test'.$i.'text'; $$varname = $i;

Sure. Read the documentation for fopen(), flock(), and fwrite(). Then fwrite() out $HTTP_SERVER_VARS["HTTP_USER_AGENT"].

If you run it from command line then yes. If you instead doing it from your browser then this is where it will be sent.
You could use a $variable .= 'staff' system, so before an echo $variable you can also precreate a file.

Accoring to Microsofts book 'Rapid Development' (dont knock it, excellent book) says the average human can not keep track of more then 500 lines of code at once, I beleive it. I break my code up into sections smaller then 500 lines, keeps the code better. load time because files are distributed is minimal. Everything comes down to cost, the little it would cost to add more ram/cpu to compinsate for this *minor* overhead would be 100x cheaper then extra time spent in development due to huge files being confusing...

My advise to you is to care about the portability of software rather then it's speed. include() and require() are not too painful, not too slow. You can easily have 10 of them and by that your page will be slower by only few dozens of milliseconds. However doing so you could reuse some parts of your code having your software more dynamic.

Subject: [PHP] parse speed vs require speed
I'm wondering if I should organize the functions for my project into a single large file and have only one include/require, or break the code out into separate function library files and use a number of includes/requires.
With a single large function library I'm guessing PHP would parse this every time a page is called. So I could loose some overhead by separating my database functions into one file, my administration functions into another, my presentation functions into another, etc... then only including the function pages necessary - likely cutting the amount of code being parsed in half for any given page.
But then I begin wondering about the speed of making a require() to each of these files. maybe three to five requires per page.
Lastly, what about caching or compiling the function libraries so they're not being parsed each time?
Any advice on this?

My personal opinions:
The effect of comments in code parsing speed is negligable. Never hesitate to put in a comment because you think it's going to slow down the procedure. If your speed requirements were that down to the wire, you should have gone with a compiled app anyway. Or a faster server. Or anything other than not putting in comments.
That said, it's rare that I've written 2 lines of comments for every 1 line of code, and I tend to be fairly rigorous (on good days, anyway) about commenting completely. You may want to consider putting some of those comments in seperate design documentation.
Finally, I tend to break up my source code into several files, usually around the class definitions (I like object orientation). I usually wind up with one file for the database interface, a few files containing class definitions corresponding to the business logic, and an included fragment for each block of HTML which needs to interact heavily with the PHP (for example, pre-populated form fields). This is purely for ease-of-maintenance.
Where you can, you should replace calls to include() with calls to require(), because require() is a bit faster. The catch is that you can't place require() calls in conditional blocks, so:
if ($something) include($foo); // this is okay if ($something) require($bar); // this is not.
Hope this helps, Sam

I didn't see any responses to this the other day when I asked so this time I'll include source.. just cutting and pasting so hopefully nothing gets clobbered..
When I parse this lil bit of raw data it parses properly. You can trace it and see that it opens and closes the tags properly and that it writes the $this->dom variable properly in the parsers close_tag () function. However when you return the $this->dom value afterwards the variables previous value is returned rather than the current value. Any ideas what I am doing wrong? Thanks.

If you pick a directory other than the default, I think you need to create a file called my.cnf in the root of C: indicating where mysql is. Mine looks like this:
[mysqld] basedir = e:/mysql/
I needed to do this before mysqld would even start.

This also troubles me i have read and read the docs on this. It seems that Lock tables prevents other threads interfering with your transaction your inserts will not be compromised by another thread deleting or updating data inconsistent with your SQL. The snag for me is that all obscure input from the user and every other eventuality has to be trapped prior to avoid sending dud SQL to MySQL, other wise the inserts/updates will fail. The TO DO list talks about atomic inserts/updates which would solve my problems ie they all happen or all do NOT happen. If MySQL can do this then I don't care about rollback. I would dearly like to use the fast tables rather than compromise speed using DBD tables but as I see it we are stuck with them or Postgres until the atomic updates code is completed.
Be interested to know if anyone has got atomic updates sorted.

Without knowing exactly what you're doing I'd say it's easiest to read the entire file into an array, modify the line you want, and write the file back out. Then you could easily modify any line you wanted. Otherwise check out fseek () in the PHP manual.

Brandon,
You can set a default value for a form field by doing something like the following:
<code> <input type="text" name="field1" value="<? echo $var1; ?>"> </code>
Hope that helps,
Jason

You can't do it (at least not that I know)
How will you make a default value not knowing the File System of a user's local machine?
Try something different...

Hello,
This is off topic, but I have been working on it all day with php and can't seem to figure it out. Does anyone know how to give a file field in a form a default value? I am trying to have a script automatically fill in some upload fields on my form.

For the life of me I can't figure out what's going on. I have:
<form enctype='multipart/form-data' action='/admin/upload.php' method='post'> <input type=hidden name=MAX_FILE_SIZE value=5000> <input type=hidden name=uploadingfile value=true> Choose File: <input name=userfile size=69 type=file><P> <input type=submit value='Send File'></form>
and I can try to upload a file, but then the HTTP_POST_FILES hash doesn't get properly populated and no file is stored in the upload directory. Basically:
HTTP_POST_FILES["userfile"] Array ( [name] =>1323.txt [type] =>text/plain [tmp_name] =>none [size] => 0 ) I've set my php.ini with: upload_tmp_dir = /tmp and nothing gets put in there (I've verified that the dir has world r/w w/ suid).
Any ideas of how to debug this futher?

Yep, and if you look at the HTTP_POST_FILES hash you'll see that the browser/form properly sent the filename. The problem is with the temporary file that isn't created/stored. More specifically, HTTP_POST_FILES[userfile][tmp_name] is set to 'none' when it should be something like /tmp/abc123 and the size is 0.

I'm setting up a back end production system for a television show, and have been given space on a development server with PHP 4 and Oracle support compiled in (but not the OCI libraries). The Oracle admin have given me my user name (let's say ora_user), a TNS name (tns_name), and a password (ora_pass).
So I write code as follows...
if ($conn=ora_logon("ora_usertns_name","ora_pass")) {
echo "SUCCESS ! Connected to database\n";
} else {
echo "Failed :-( Could not connect to database\n";
echo ora_errorcode($conn).": ".ora_error($conn)."<BR>";
}
In response to this code, I get the following error: ORA-12154 "Supplied argument is not a valid Oracle-Connection/Cursor resource in ...."
From reading php.net documentation on ora_logon, it seemed that maybe the ORACLE_HOME environment variable simply hadn't been set.
I had the sys admins set it.
And I still get the error.
Any ideas from an experienced PHP/Oracle developer?

Its sort of what i wondered.... when the session is started it makes a file in say c:/temp (in NT machine) what i wondered is how do you encode the information in there ... the info in the file is something like user|s:6:"username";pass|s:6:"password";email|s:6:"email address";
and also i can't get a value for the email ... so the session_register('email') returns nothing ... do you have any ideas?

Definitely, I agree, but I think it would be better if WSH was simply patched, perhaps with a way to sign scripts, and non-expert users can't give them root permissions, and that scripts should not ever be able to send emails without a user confirmation, no matter what permissions they have. Perhaps do the same thing with trying to run a program or load a COM component.

I'm having a strange problem with sessions, it appears that they are not propagating to the next page. When I run the login page the sess vars get registered, the session_id() get's set, and the cookie sessId get's set. However when I go to the order page in a subdirectory only the cookie sessId comes over correctly. It will not set the session_id(). The only thing that prints as expected is the cookie var and $sessionId.
I'm using 4.0.4pl1 on Redhad 6.2 apache 1.3.9 . enable_track_vars is enabled and so is register_globals. Am I doing something wrong or is Sessions broken in pl1?
<?php // login page
srand((double)microtime()*1000000); $sessionId = md5(uniqid(rand())); session_id($sessionId); session_start(); setcookie("sessId", $sessionId);
session_register('clientid'); session_register('clientname'); session_register('rnum');

$sessionId = $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS['sessId'];

I think you might need to session_register () the variables on each page you want to use them, not just once per session.

Basically I'm trying to get 3 session vars on a page in a sub directory, clientid, clientname and rnum. I do a session_start() at the beginning of every page, I also do a session_id($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS['sessId']) on each page, with the sessid being the same. But when I do "echo session_id()" on the second page after setting it and starting the session, it comes back blank, as thought the session was being destroyed or just not starting.
I've tried registering the variable on the second page, and it still doesn't work

I'm having a little trouble here developing and running queries.
I spent some time developing in ASP, and whenever there was something wrong with a query, the script halted, and the error message - from ODBC, tye sql syntax error - was printed along with the line of code.
In PHP that's not how it goes, it doesn't tell me when theres an error with a mysql_query unless I place a call to mysql_error() after each executed query right?
That's exactly what I'm doing, but again, it doesn't do all I want, cuz it doesn't tell me the line of code, and I don't know where is the error, unless I start printing everything on error handling. ____________________________ .

Christian -
You need to be checking the return values of the mysql_*() functions. Make
sure you're not calling them with a mysql_*() as that will disable error
reporting.
Perhaps you should give us some examples of what's failing and how?
Also, if the server isn't yours the server admin may have turnd down the level of error reporting in php so errors never even show up. See http://www.php.net/manual/en/configuration.php and look at display_errors and error_reporting then check your server settings with phpinfo().

Hey all,
I got a rather strange probelm with fast template, I won't go into great detail unless someone has had a simular experience while using define_dynamic. Basically I have written a site which totally uses Fast Templates and some sections use define_dynamic which work perfectly, my problem is I have just added a new section which refuses to acknowledge the:
<!-- BEGIN DYNAMIC BLOCK: handle_name --> <!-- END DYNAMIC BLOCK: handle_name -->
tags (they appear in the final output) I have read all the documentation and am really sure that I have done this correctly, even checked the other pages which *are* working, no matter what I do this refuses to work, has anyone else run into a simular problem?
Any help would be mutch appreciated, I am really stuck on this.

I'm at a loss for this one. I can't seem to get PHP 4 on RedHat 7. I can get the rpm to install and work, but if I try to configure myself, it never works. Everything says to configure with apxs, but there is no apxs. What is strange though is if I look at how the rpm configures PHP, it configures it with apxs and it works!
I want to configure PHP with PDF support, so I can't just use the rpms. If anyone has any suggestions, let me know. That is other that trying to configure apache manually. I've been down that road before, and don't want to do it again.

Mike -
You're not 100% specfic (or I'm not 100% clear) on what you've tried to do to fix this but here's a basic recipie which should work for you. (it has for me.)
1) Get the current php src.rpm file from the Red Hat 7 errata and install it. 2) cd /usr/src/redhat/SPEC/ and edit the php.spec file. Fine the configure section and ensure that the proper --with option is enabled for PDF support. You may also want to rev the minor version of the RPM so you know it's yours vs the default Red Hat version. 3) Save the file and then run rpm -ba php.spec and sit back. When done you'll have several packages in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386 waiting for you to install.
You may find that after you do a rpm -ba php.spec that the build fails because several devel packages are not installed (ie openssl-devel, openldap-devel, etc). Make sure you have them installed before building.
Good luck.

That's crazy because I am doing the same exact thing right now (compile with PDF on RH 7 and having problems.)
Anyway PDF and everything compiles fine on RH 6.2 but I have had some problems on 7.
What I did is:
Install mySQL
Configure and install Apache (my configure looks like this):
./configure \
"--with-layout=Apache" \
"--prefix=/www" \
"--with-perl=/usr/bin/perl" \
"--enable-module=so" \
"$"
Configure and install PdfLib (my configure looks like this):
./configure --enable-cxx --with-tiffauxlib=-ljpeg --with-tifflib --with-zlib
--with-pnglib=no --enable-shared --enable-static --enable-shared-pdflib
After that point I have been fooling around with the PHP configure. What works for me so far is:
./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-apxs=/www/bin/apxs --with-sablot
(I have installed Sablot XSLT lib)
This compiles and installs fine.
Then when I try to add the pdflib options, the make dies at:
./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-apxs=/www/bin/apxs --with-sablot --with-zlib-dir=/usr/lib --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib --with-tiff-dir=/usr/lib --with-pdflib

It says it cannot find xmltok, but its installed in /usr/lib where everything else is.
I don't know either. This worked no problem on 6.2. BTW I have the most recent version of GCC according to Redhat Up2Date

I'll give you an example of it's use:
You have a submission form where you need to confirm:
you have a form on page 1:
field 1... field 2... field 3...
and submit button.. When people submit the data it goes to page 2 where a loop will take all that, create a hidden forms and will also list the data submitted as text so you can ask the user: "are you sure this info is correct?" If not they click back-button and if yes they continue clicking submit again and at that point all these hidden fields are going into your database.
Hope it explains you a bit.

you should try the setting for include_path in php.ini as
include_path =" /usr/share/php:./"
note the addition of './' in the include path.
this would allow php to include the files in the current directory as well, which is the case I guess with the phorum scripts.

Subject: [PHP] Include
Hello,
I have php 4.0.3pl1.
I am trying to install phorum (phorum.org).
In a php file (index.php in admin) there is the function include for a file (common.php), I get the following error.
Warning: Failed opening 'common.php' for inclusion (include_path='/usr/share/php') in /home/web/vacagorda/jeans/htdocs/foro/administration/index.php on line 28
Why I can't include that file without putting it in the /usr/shar/php diretory?
Thank you

I know you can replace A or B or C with D but can you replace A with B and C with D exclusively with one call to ereg_replace or does this need to be done seperately?

And, in fact, doing a "SELECT *" ends up precluding most optimizations within a query engine! Selecting only what you really need can give speedups in queries in the order of 3 orders of magnitude (where the query results can be satisfied via indices).

People who create scripts that include a need for access to a SQL database, meaning you need to give it a username and password then making the damn configuration file be called something stupid like config.inc.
When you are scripting, using anything with a .inc extension is just asking for trouble. If someone requests that file, it'll get passed straight to them. It's a .inc, which means that PHP does not know to parse it. Which means, that person can see your usernames and passwords. And because it's a public package, they're far more likely to know the path to said file.

OK, I finally found it. Someone else here recommended setenv -- it's actually putenv. putenv was *not* found through any search I could make on the PHP Web site involving the word environment and so on, I found it through Google. And it's apparently documented under "PHP Options and Information" where I wouldn't have thought to look for it for a thousand years.

Hello everyone,
I've just joined this list, so I thought I'll introduce myself. I won't bore you with the long life story, so here's the quick summary:
-Electrical + Computer Engineering student -web development for 6+ years (started out with the VI editor) -HTML,C/C++,PERL,PHP,ASM,Jscripts,...I learn them as I need them... and forget them until I need them.
My questions:
I want to make an e-commerce like transaction with a remote file, similar to how a merchant account process a credit card. The concept is very similar.
Basically, I have two servers in two different cities. I have a web interface on server A, and DB on server B. Server A is a membership site.
If someone tries to access a members-feature from site A, then site A will contact site B, run a cgi script (which returns YES or NO), then proceed according to the answer from B.
[It's not possible for the user to connect to site B, then transfer to site A]
I want this to be invisible to the user, so I'm using
$fp = fopen(http://.../file.cgi?var=value);
to run the remote script.
Now, if the remote script returns a value, like
return ($va1, $var2);
================= How can I read these value, from site A? =================
If the function was in the same file, then it would be no problem. For example, with
$var1 = function_name();
$var1 would contain any value returned by function_name().
===================== Does that same concept holds, if the files are different? ====================
=== How can I capture the returned value of the remote file?
=== Is there a better way to do this?
Any and all suggestions are welcome. I would appreciate any help, comments, directions, that can provide.
Thanks in advance.

When you say 'not working' , do you mean that you don't see a line break in your browser where the \n has been inserted?
This is correct behaviour - \n, \t and multiple space characters are all treated as white space by browsers and rendered as a single space. If you want to insert a line break you need to use <BR>, and you can use a series of to mimic a tab. There are better ways of handling this using CSS.

I did with <br>. "\r\n" too is not giving a new line.

Actually "\n" does create a newline. If you view the source code of the web page from the browser you'll see that it works. "\n" is not an HTML tag. It's not designed to create a newline in the HTML output sent to the browser. As you discovered, the <BR> tag will do that. Hope that is clear. "\n" is typically used in PHP code so that when one looks at the HTML code sent to the browser one doesn't have to look at lines of HTML code that contain hundreds upon hundreds of characters.

when the cookie is not set, the $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS will not have an index 'getdwgnum'
maybe you should try it this way
<?php
$cook = mt_rand (5, 50000) ; if isset($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["getdwgnum"]))
$cookieinfo = $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["getdwgnum"]; } if ($cookieinfo > "") { $str = "where Cook = $cookieinfo"; $cx=odbc_pconnect("doc","",""); } else setcookie ("getdwgnum", $cook,time()+28800);
?>
this code is not checked by executing. but I guess this should be the reason.
hope that helps
