    Siim,

    You can do this with a combination of XML and XSL. I remember a demo
    from Microsoft's XML area that did exactly what you ask: Click a column
    and have it sort. I believe it was an example having to do with Stock
    listings. Basically XSL lets you use come programming/looping constructs
    when displaying data from an XML file. The downside is that it currently
    only works with IE 5 and greater. It might not be the best overall
    solution, but if you are looking at the issue from a "can it be done"
    point of view, then yes, it can actually be done. It just might not be
    usable.

    There is an example of this in Mozilla. If you go to the Debug->Viewer Demos
    menu and select #14 or #15 there are some nice examples there. If you don't

    Just a curiosity. I installed and tested Manuel Lemos's
    PHP E-mail validation class. When I entered an address
    at the wi.rr.com domain, no matter what I put before
    the domain, it would come back as valid. (That's the
    Wisconsin domain for Road Runner cable service.) But
    when I tried it for earthlink.net only real addresses
    came back as valid. Does anyone know what it is about
    some mail servers at certain domains that it would return
    everything as valid?

    so skjoeiruoiwi.rr.com would show as a valid address.
    skjoeiruoiearthlink.net wouldn't but timearthlink.net would

    Newer SMTP servers tend to not verify if a recipient address is valid when
    the message is submitted to the server but rather later when the message is
    attempted to be delivered.

    I suppose that is because it takes less time to queue a message for
    delivery and it sort of protects the privacy of addresses that correspond
    to valid accounts so it makes it harder for people that keep spam lists to
    verify if the addresses they have are valid or not.

    I wonder if there are any class or script out there that you can give an url or file as an variable and then it sends this as html-mail to a given emailadress.

    Hi,

    Try this :

    <? $qry=getenv("QUERY_STRING");

    $sirarg=explode("&",$qry); $url_adr=$sirarg[0]; $mail_adress=$sirarg[1]; $fcontents = join ('', file ($url_adr)); $posta=mail($mail_adress ,"Requested URL: ".$url_adr, $fcontents ,"From: sifrimrsb.ro\n"."MIME-Version: 1.0\n"."Content-Type: text/html;\n"); if ($posta ) { echo "The requested URL was sent succesfully" ; } else { echo "There was an error while sending the requested URL " ; } ?>

    You should call the script like this : scriptname.php?page_adress&email_adress Here is an example :

    rsb.ro">http://10.116.1.133/script/email.php3?http://10.116.1.133/documen/php_nou/function.mail.html&sifrimrsb.ro

    Are you using session variables to store your client ID and data or cookies? In the case of cookies type the following to destroy them : <? setcookie ("User_ID", "", time()); ?> or if you used the session id to add items to a general shopping cart <? $sess = session_id(); $DelCart = mysql_query("delete from Cart where sess_id = '$sess'"); ?> Hope I was helpful

    The source for what? PHP? Sure, click on the Downloads button on www.php.net. For libswf, nope. Use ming instead. http://www.opaque.net/ming/

    The round() problem is because of differences in your versions of PHP, but the fact of the matter is that the UNIX version of PHP is ahead of the WIndows version because it is easier to program on UNIX, and there are more people interested in programming for UNIX than Windows.

    Most main stream functions will work on both platforms but there are things like the DBM database that works on UNIX, but fails because of differences in the Windows platform.

    (See http://bugs.php.net/?id=8819)

    Then there is a new image library that breaks the 256 color barrier, that is only available on UNIX. Work is in progress (maybe done) on a PHP extension to call it, but unless someone ports the base library to Windows it will not be available on that platform.

    I know there are other things, these are just some that I've seen recently.

    There is a Perl module that is very useful for this, I'm currently in the process of implementing it.

    I'm looking for a better way to calculate UPS shipping costs than opening a connection to the UPS website every time a user wants to calculate their shipping (Which is what I'm finding).

    Anybody care to point me in the direction of where I can information on how to do this?

    No - PHP arrays aren't arrays in the traditional sense like you would find in C or Perl... it's more like Perl's hash (or associative array). It's just a set of key/value pairs. In some cases you would use numbes instead of alphanumeric labels but PHP treats it all the same way, basically.

    I'm using IE 5 to view a page i'm building for a client of mine. The problem is, on some pages when you press the "Back" button, I get an expiry message. To temporarily fix this problem, i've opened new windows everytime a link is clicked on. This is a pretty unelegant solution but I hope someone out there has an answer for me on how to fix this.

    FYI: I'm using Apache 1.3.14 on a Windows machine.

    I'm got another person working for me on a site. He's a Mac user and for some reason, he can't seem to register as a new person. I know this problem isn't due to the large amount of traffic b/c it's a new site with 3 users max at any time.

    I haven't found any similar problems in any knowledge base and i'm thinking it has something to do with my cable modem connection and the fact that: 1. I'm in Seattle and he's in Cleveland (distance issue) - less likely. 2. ON the more likely side, all the crap that is running on my computer (ie: firewalls, IDS, telnet, applications).

    However, another developer in the same city as me has no problems registering on his Win machine.

    Anyone have any ideas? Thanks, Mike

    PHP gives you the option of using either: * POSIX regular expressions (ex. ereg_*), which beginners often seem to prefer, or * Perl-compatible regular expressions (PCRE; ex. preg_*), which are very powerful and fast but don't always look as friendly

    For POSIX regex, you can do "man regex" at the command line, or do a search for "POSIX regular expressions" in any search engine. There are also many, many tutorials on the net (including one at PHPbuilder.com) explaining the "extended regular expressions" syntax, which is basically what that is.

    For the PCRE functions, the PHP manual includes detailed info about the syntax. Since it also details the minor differences between those functions and the Perl equivalent, any tutorial on Perl regular expressions should be helpful in clarifying anything the manual doesn't make clear enough.

    For an offline resource, there's the O'Reilly book "Mastering Regular Expressions".

    hehe, And while they are at it, could that same person please tell me how to achieve world domination with just a sponge, toothpick and some gum????

    hehe sorry Brandon I just couldn't resist... your going to have to get a little more specific on your questions... we cant write the script for you....

    What are you searching for? pages on your site? MP3s in your database? Everything on the web??? If you are doing the last one, then I would suggest you stop here.... if your asking this question, then you don't understand that this can take LOTS of time and money... There are scripts out there now that will allow you to do this. Not sure of any off the top of my head, but someone will know, check www.hotscripts.com .

    However, the other two are fairly simple... you will need a database table with the page name, and list of keywords for that page.... then do something like this...

    SELECT pagePath FROM searchEngine WHERE keyWords LIKE '$key_Word_User_Entered'

    It's LIKE or IN.... I never remember which... (someone set me strait here.)

    your form would be a 1 or 2 field form, one for the users search, the other maybe a drop down list of possible categories to search in.... (Rap, Country...., Pets, Sports.......) this would be to narrow the search...

    but as always with PHP.... someone has written this already,... again, check hotscrips.

    Good luck...

    Hi! I'd like to do the following: i have a page where the user chooses from a combo of a products, a combo of charactersitics, the date when he wants it and the quantity! he may not fill one of these inputs so the result will be the list of all products, or he may choose the product and not the characteristics etc so i will check in my database and show them! but that page is dynamic cause i have to add checkboxes close to each product !The purpose of these checkboxes is that the user can add the products to its cart of estimates(devis), so as the final result will be the estimate of the price of all products checked! The problem is that when the user checks a product, i should know wich product to add, i thought of giving the checkboxes, the product number ! any ideas ?

    PS: i'm using sessions cause i have many pages from where he can add whatever he wants to its estimate cart

    Thanks

    Hello everyone,

    In perl, you can use 'print qq' to print a block of text. Like,

    print qq~ my text block goes here, with " " or whatever... my other line with more special characters... ~;

    Is there something similar in PHP? I've tried the above, but it does not work. I was wondering if PHP had something as convenient.

    yes, that will work... however, if you're trying to select from a table that lacks an explicit AUTO_INSERT field, yet has an incrementing field (DATETIME is one that comes to mind), selecting the LAST_INSERT_ID wouldnt work...

    Hm, this is getting much more complicated as I thought.

    I want to use PGP. This works fine with temporary Files: You say to PGP: "Please take the file message.txt and encrypt it to the file encrypt.txt". Ok.

    But this could be a possible securety-hole, because the message-file is available on the disc for some time. The pgp-doc says, that you could use the -f paramter with pipes to avoid this.

    But: How is it done exactly ? I didn't get anything to work.

    (Using PGP 2.6.3. and Linux)
