    Hi...

    How do I get an EOF character when echo'ing an web page which will be
    written to an file.??

    What I am trying to do is the following. I have an textstring (variable):

    Then I do the following:

          header("Content-disposition: filename=CLIEOP03");
          header("Content-type: application/octetstream");
          header("Pragma: no-cache");
          header("Expires: 0");
         echo ("$datestring");

    ($datastring contains the text)

    My browser pops up with a box to ask if I want to save this file..

    The problem is, that when I save this file it has no EOF character at the
    end.. Normally I then use my text editor to open the file and then I just
    save it again to get the needed character.. I generate this file for an
    application..

    The problem is that the application won't accept the file if there is no EOF
    character..

    What is the correct characters to use to get an EOF character??

    Thanks for the help..

    Bye Bye

    > if ((substr($imgName, -4) != ".jpg") || (substr($imgName, -4) != ".gif"))

    this case, in plain english is :
    if ext is not jpg, OR if ext is not gif, error

    the ext will never be both jpg and gif at the same time, so you're looking
    for the condition:

    if ((substr($imgName, -4) != ".jpg") && (substr($imgName, -4) != ".gif"))
    {
    //error
    }
    else
    {
    //do image processing thing.
    }

    also note, some progs. save jpegs as .jpeg

    attached mail follows:

    or, a bit more concisely, you could use a regexp...

    to allow only jpg/gif/png file formats, setup the
    regexp to match on those three formats, and
    yell at people who submit anything other than
    those three....

    $imgName = "one.jpg";
    if (! preg_match('/\.(jpg|gif|png)$/', $imgName) ) {
      print "file format is not supported!";
    }

    I need to pass a array through a url.
    Currently I'm assigning the array to the url like so http://localhost/dir/page.php?checkbox_array=$checkbox_array
    but when I want to sort through the array on the recieved page it is not possible because the array seems to have been replaced with the string value of "Array".
    The array I wish to can be of any size / dimensions.

    Also by passing a fenominal amont of variables throught the array I am starting to wonder what the limits are of this method an how likly is it that a browser will becoming the limiting factor in this. Becasue I have only a limited amont of time to test this site I'm only testing on Netscape and IE 4+ and they seem fine but I'd hate to find out later that thjis was a poor method for this reason.

    All any help with this is apreciated in anticipation.

    attached mail follows:

    well, if the only characters that you want to allow are
    alphanum/space/underscore, you could use a
    perl regexp to match against anything *other* than
    those things...(a positive match would indicate that the
    string being matched had invalid characters in it)
    use this:

    preg_match('/[^\w\s]/', $input);

    (to see an explanation of why this works, please read
    the bottom of my email... i give a short breakdown of it)

    if you want to allow any more characters, simply place the
    character you want to allow within the brackets, and any
    instance of that character in the string to be matched
    will be ignored (rather than matched)
    for example, to allow periods and question marks in
    your input (without getting a positive match on the regexp),
    modify it to look like this: '/[^\w\s\.\?]/'

    what will match and what will not match using this regexp:
    print preg_match('/[^\w\s]/', $t);

    $t = "ea!ti_t99";
    will print "1" since the "!" will match the regexp

    $t = "Hello one_two"
    will print "0" since nothing matches

    $t = "How *are* you"
    will print "1" since the "*" matches

    the regexp works like this:
    [ ] = character class
    ^ = not
    \w = alphanumeric
    \s = space

    the character class brackets are just to let the regexp
    know that the things inside of it are to be matched one
    by one against the string. "[suv]" would not match the entire
    string "suv", but rather "s" or "u" or "v", so "[\w\s]" would
    match any string that had an alphanumeric character or
    whitespace in it. since you want to find strings that
    have NOT-alphanum or NOT-space, you simply negate the
    character class that will match alphanum and space, by
    adding a "^" to it... making it "[^\w\s]" (match anything
    that is NOT an alphanumeric or space character - meaning
    match any string that has invalid characters).

    if you want to allow other characters into your input, just
    add them into the character class. if you find that you need
    to allow "?" into your input, use this "[^\w\s\?]"... and it will
    match any string that does NOT have alphanum/space/?,
    meaning that it will match any string with invalid chars.....

    any good .conf files?
    ...mine reads like a stephen king novel :)

    it's easy... if you go to php.net and read thru their
    installation documentation, there are about 4-5 lines
    total that you need to add to your httpd.conf
    (at least when you install php as a stanalone cgi)
    to get apache to properly handle php content...

    took me about 5 minutes to add the lines, restart
    apache, and get my first "Hello world" php script
    to greet me :)

    im using win2k myself, so if you have any severe
    trouble, i could possibly help you out...

    it's not very elegant, but i havent come across any PHP
    core function that will do what you asked, so here's a little
    loop that will return the total length of a multidimensional
    array

    $total = 0;
    for ($i=0; $i < count($myarray); $i++) {
            $total += count( $myarray[$i] );
    }
    print $total;

    in your case, it will (should) print "8"

    hmmm... what i would do is set a cookie named
    "cookies_enabled" in the very beginning of your site,
    and check for the presense of that variable in places
    that you need cookie functionality...

    logically, if $cookies_enabled isnt set, it means that the
    cookie doesnt exist (and thus cookie support for the
    browser is lacking or dismal)

    well, CSS support in netscape 4 is abyssmal to begin with,
    and it's a 5 year old browser, so i would venture to guess
    that's why you cant get anything to look the way it should...

    i never thought i'd see the day when MSIE was more
    standards compliant and more stable than netscape...
    (well, at least until netscape 6 is finalized and non-beta code :)

    Martin,

    you can either use the file 'php://stdout', which will open stadard
    output independant of platform, or access /dev/stdout, which is a
    symlink to the stdout stream of your process.

    Also, any output that is printed from PHP will be printed to stdout.

    Cheers,
    Ben

    did you check the value *before* writing it to a file?

    before trying to solve any problem, you have to know
    where to look.... perhaps the problem lies with the file
    instead of the regexp.

    the following code worked great for me:

    <?php

    $html='<a
    href="link.htm?something=value&flag=982420537&PHPSESSID=2c86b460d360b13c3ef08b8a46b9c
    afc">Lnk</a>';
    $html = preg_replace('/&flag=(\d{9})&PHPSESSID=(\w{32})/', append_url(), $html );
    print $html;
    save_url($html);
    die("Done");

    function append_url() {
      return "&new_url=this";
    }

    function save_url($html) {
      if ( !($f = fopen('test.txt', 'w')) ) {
              die("Cannot write file");
      }
      else {
              fwrite($f, $html);
              fclose($f);
      }
      return 1;
    }

    ?>

    Ah, yes. str_replace and eregi_replace don't modify the string - they
    return a modified string. That means you have to do a

    $html_code = eregi_replace (..., $html_code);

    arghhh ... I'm so stupid !! Yes, u're right ...

    really, many thanks max

    attached mail follows:

    there's a much easier way to get rid of whitespace and linebreaks at the end of a variable than using a looped ereg_replace (as i previously suggested)

    1) use trim() 2) use preg_replace('/\s*$/', '', $input)

    both will cremate spaces and linebreaks

    just for the discussion, you can use a delete query like "delete from song_list where song_title='title' and song_book='book'"

    to delete only one record, assuming that song names are unique per book.

    however, with scalability and performance taken into consideration, an index with a unique id makes a lot of sense. note that you can have only one autoindex field per table as of mysql 3.22.*

    Thanks to all the replies to my previous email on arrays (passing arrays through URLs) but I cannot seem to get serialize() to work correctly so I'm now trying to echo out the array as a series of hidden elements in a form that when submitted will re-build the array. I've been driving myself mad with this problem for some time now an I hope that someone can help me with this. I'm trying to insert into a table called options an option_type (eg shape), an option_value (eg square) and product_code (a six digit code). I want this table to be filled from a web form with check boxes (which are called from the same table with a code of XXX so that I know they are possible options for any product). I can do this and have got the code below generated

    <tr><td colspan='3'><i><b>Colour</b></i></td></tr> <td><input type="checkbox" name="form_options[Colour][]" value="Red">Red</td> <td><input type="checkbox" name="form_options[Colour][]" value="Violet">Violet</td> <td><input type="checkbox" name="form_options[Colour][]" value="Green">Green</td> </tr> <tr> <td><input type="checkbox" name="form_options[Colour][]" value="Blue">Blue</td> </tr> <tr><td colspan='3'><i><b>Size</b></i></td></tr> <td><input type="checkbox" name="form_options[Size][]" value="A3">A3</td> <td><input type="checkbox" name="form_options[Size][]" value="A4">A4</td> <td><input type="checkbox" name="form_options[Size][]" value="A5">A5</td> </tr>

    From the options table that looks like this: type - value - code colour - red - XXX colour - blue - XXX colour - violet - XXX colour - geen - XXX size - A3 - XXX size - A4 - XXX size - A5 - XXX

    I think this html form code is right so that when the form is submitted the an array $form_options will be generated now here is my problem: I don't know how to output the array to a html <input type=hidden> fields so that I can safly pass the array form page to page or so that I can then do inserts into the database here is as close as I have gotten :

    foreach ($form_options as $arrayType){ $i++; $type = ($arrayType[$i]); foreach ($arrayType as $value){ echo("Option :". $type ." Value :". $value . "<br>"); } but this code only produces : Option :Red Value :Red Option :Red Value :Violet Option :Red Value :Green Option :Red Value :Blue Option :A4 Value :A3 Option :A4 Value :A4 Option :A4 Value :A5

    I can't seem to find the 'Type' value that should be in the array.

    Can anyone help me with this code as I DESPERATLY need it.

    Yes, most people don't care much about writing database independent code, because they assume they will never need to switch from their current database of choice.

    This is often not the case. Many developers that started with lower end database like MySQL and PostgreSQL often realize that they need their databases to scale up to a point that you will need an high end database to handle.

    Other developers find themselves in the opposite migration way. They develop products that rely on specific high end databases but then they realize that there is a much wider audience of low end database users that could be interested in their products if they could work with those databases.

    This uncertainty of the future needs lead me to start developing Metabase two years ago. Metabase is a PHP database abstraction package that you may rely to write database independent applications. It features not only database independent access but also database independent schema installation.

    Metabase is free and you may want to look at it here:

    Yeah, this will give you an array of the numbers 1 - 10 in random order. If you want a different range, change the parameters to suit.

    <?php function rand_array( $start, $finish ) { srand ( (double) microtime() * 1000000); $rand_array = range( $start, $finish ); // it really irritates me the way PHP's sort functions mess around // with the original array rather than returning a sorted array so // I can assign it to where I want it. shuffle( $rand_array ); return $rand_array; }

    print_r( rand_array(1, 10) );

    ?>

    I've been using a PHP upload script to upload files to our server, but my problem is this. I can't upload anything but JPG, GIF, and HTML files. Anyone have any idea why? This is probably something simple that I'm just overlooking, but please help.

    The script you are using is probably checking the MIME type of the file uploaded and rejecting any of the ones that are not one of the types you listed. Look at or post some of the code you are using to find out if this is the case.

    Hmm. I don't know one thing you could try is putting $image in quotes, like '$image'. Also you might try to use the code I have pasted below. Using exec is probably not the most effecient way to do the copy of the file (and using mv limits you to *nix). Make sure you remove the checks for image type files that I make in the checkImgType() function.

    HTH, Michael

    if($Image!="none"){ $ImageExt=checkImgType($Image_type,$Image_name); }

    if($Image!="none"){ $ImageFinal=$ABS_PRODUCTS_IMAGES_DIR.$LastInsertID."Image".$ImageExt; copy($Image, $ImageFinal); }

    function checkImgType($image_type,$image_name){ if((strcmp($image_type,"image/jpeg")==0)||(strcmp($image_type,"image/gif")==0)||(strcmp($image_type,"image/pjpeg")==0)||(strcmp($image_type,"image/jpg")==0)) { switch($image_type){ case "image/jpg": $imageExt=".jpg"; break; case "image/jpeg": $imageExt=".jpg"; break; case "image/pjpeg": $imageExt=".jpg"; break; case "image/gif": $imageExt=".gif"; break; } return $imageExt; }else { print "<b><font color=red>$image_name is not a valid file to upload.<br> Please upload JPEG (.jpg) or GIF (.gif) type images only.</font></b><br>&nbsp;<br>"; return 0; } }

    Some questions about how to get a whole bunch of fields in a form as input to another page, i.e. *.cgi, or*.phpx:

    1/ All fields, buttons, etc have to have different names? 2/ Using 'selected' on pulldowns automatically returns that value unless selected? 3/ The WHOLE PAGE is included in one form? -OR- Multiple forms are used on one page, and submit button returns All forms?

    That's not really possible. The only way this could happen is that if you have certain IPs blocked.

    This all depends on the type of authentication you are using to allows users access to the site. It's probably not a firewall problem becuase if any user can see the sight at all, all should be able to. But all the other crap you have running on your computer shouldn't matter as long as you or one other user can register. The problem is probably somewhere in your script.

    Are you checking for browser types? Are you and the other Win user using IE and the Mac user using NS. Is the web server IIS or Apache? Are you using PHP for checking the users or Apache or IIS?

    If you could post some code, it would probably help.

    As I mentioned in an earlier email. Mac users can't register for the test site i'm building and I have no idea why this is. Here's some information that may help diagnose this problem: - The site is running on Apache1.3.14 on a Windows O/S. - I'm not checking for browser type - All authentication is done through a MySQL database. - The actual signup page is an html page and sent to a PHP page that accepts/denies the information submitted.

    Here's the actual coding for the newmemberacceptance.php page (the page that accepts or rejects a new user).

    Ok this used to work but now I've done something to break it.

    My info.php says that I have PHP support: pdf PDF Support enabled PDFLib Version 3.03 CJK Font Support yes In-memory PDF Creation Support yes

    BUT when I try and run the clock test code, I get:

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function: pdf_new() in /home/httpd/pwn/htdocs/test/test.php on line 6

    The first 6 lines of code are: <?php $radius = 200; $margin = 20; $pagecount = 10;

    $pdf = PDF_new();

    It seems that PHP doesn't want to recognize any fo the PDF functions. Anybody got ANY idea what's wrong?

    How do I use slashes to delimit query string (url) paramters?

    i.e., I want http://foo.com/name/paul instead of http://foo.com/?name=paul

    I am looking for code that explains how to sum a value in a database based on a current field retrieved from the database.

    Example:

    query = "select course_name, course_build, milestone, testcase, time_tested, issue_status, comment, bug_number, tested_by, date_tested from testissues where test_issue_id = $viewid"; $result = mysql_query( $query );

    1 - retrieve needed fields from database based on the id the user links from ($viewid) 2 - assign the course_name value from the query statement to a variable to be used on html page

    Assign: $course_name = mysql_result( $result, 0, "course_name" );

    Use variable: print " <td><font color = #006666><b>$course_name</b></font></td>\n";

    Now I would like to sum ALL the time_tested values in my database WHERE the course_name = $course_name (the variable retrieved for the record)

    query = "select sum(time_tested) where course_name = $course_name"; $result = mysql_query( $query ); $total_time = mysql_result( $result, 0, "sum(time_tested)");

    First issue -- php does not seem to recognize the value of $course_name Second issue -- will the $total_time value be calculated correctly based on the above syntax?

    hi,

    how can i store an array in mysql ?

    what i do now ( works fine ) ========================

    a) transform the array to a § delimeted string // $tempItem is a § dlimited string example: 4321§117§A123§42WQ§1243 b) $tempItem = serialize($tempItem);

    c) store it in mysql-table

    and i get my array back with

    d) $myItems = explode("§",unserialize($myValueFromDB));

    but i think theres an easier way out there any solutions

    The approach I've used is four steps:

    (1) read the current file into a variable (which preserves it) (2) open the 'old' file for writing "w" (which clears it also) (3) write the "new stuf" to the file first (4) lastly write the "old stuff" to the file

    Here's a code sample that I just tested...........

    $new_line="<A HREF=\"$URL\" target=\"_myclassy\"> $LABEL</A><BR>\n"; $filecontents = join ('', file('./classified.html')); $fp=fopen("./classified.html","w"); fwrite($fp,$new_line); fwrite($fp,$filecontents); fclose($fp);

    Hope that helps, but YMMV.
