It seems the pgsql_session_write() function is not even being invoked. Here it is:

+----------------------------------------------------------------- | function pgsql_session_write($key, $val) | { | /* debugging */ | $fp = fopen("/tmp/phpdebugwrite","w") or die ("can't open file"); | fwrite($fp, "HERE"); | fclose($fp); | /* end debug */ | | global $pgsql_session_handle, $pgsql_session_table; | | $key = addslashes($key); | $val = addslashes($val); | $now = time(); | | | | /* | * Delete any existing data for this session and then insert a new row | * containing the current session data, all in a single transaction. | * This should prevent collisions between multiple session instances. | * | * Thanks to "Will Fitzgerald" <fitzgeraldinetmi.com>. | */ | $query = 'begin; '; | $query .= "delete from $pgsql_session_table where session_id = '$key'; "; | $query .= "insert into $pgsql_session_table values('$key', $now, '$val'); "; | $query .= 'commit;'; | $result = pg_exec($pgsql_session_handle, $query); | | $ret = (pg_cmdtuples($result) == 0); | pg_freeresult($result); | | return ($ret); | } +-----------------------------------------------------------------

I've added the debugging statements at the top. Can you see anything wrong with this function? At the end of the include file in which this appears, is the session_set_save_handler() call:

session_set_save_handler( 'pgsql_session_open', 'pgsql_session_close', 'pgsql_session_read', 'pgsql_session_write', 'pgsql_session_destroy', 'pgsql_session_gc' );

Why don't you just use error_log() function and write errors to a file?

I've seen this kind of implmentatin

delete .... insert ....

IMHO, 2 sql operation that requires locks for session handling is just a waste of resources. (delete requires higher lock level than select, transaction needs more resources, for each delete, insert requires fsync() and requires more disk head movements, etc, etc) Unless you would like to implement some kind of session key validation to session handlers, simple

select .... insert or update ...

may give better performance with many web servers and users. (may not make any significant improvement, though. Disabling PostgreSQL's fsync() for session db would much better result. Just FYI)

Can you see anything >wrong with this function? At the end of the include file in which >this appears, is the session_set_save_handler() call:

You will not get output from die('.....') ( or any print/echo) in session handlers. Just use error_log() or implement user defined error handler so that you can trigger error to display session handler errors.

my example pg_session_write() looks like:

function pg_session_write ($session_id, $session_data) { global $db_session, $HTTP_SERVER_VARS, $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS; if (!$db_session) { error_log("session_write(): Cannot connect to database.",0); } if (strlen($session_data) > intval(SESS_DATA_MAX)) { error_log('Session data too large. Unable to update session data for session '. $session_id, 0); }

if (strlen($session_id) != 32) { error_log("session_write(): Invalid Session ID",0); return 0; } $session_id = addslashes($session_id); $session_data = addslashes($session_data); $uid = isset($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS['t_uid']) ? addslashes($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS['t_uid']) : '';

$query = 'SELECT session_id, i_session_counter FROM '. SESS_TABLE ." WHERE session_id = '$session_id'"; $result_id = pg_exec($db_session,$query); $session_exist = pg_numrows($result_id);

if ($session_exist == 0) { // $query = 'INSERT INTO '. SESS_TABLE ." (session_id, i_time_created, i_last_active, t_remote_addr, t_session_data) VALUES ('$session_id', ". time() .", ". time() .", '". isset($HTTP_ENV_VARS['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'])?$HTTP_ENV_VARS['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR']:$HTTP_SERVER_VARS['REMOTE_ADDR'] ."', '$session_data')"; $query = 'INSERT INTO '. SESS_TABLE ." (session_id, i_time_created, i_last_active, t_uid, t_remote_addr, t_session_data) VALUES ('$session_id', ". time() .", ". time() .", '$uid', '". $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['REMOTE_ADDR'] ."', '$session_data')"; } else { $rec = pg_fetch_array($result_id,0,PGSQL_ASSOC); $query = 'UPDATE '. SESS_TABLE ." SET t_session_data = '$session_data', i_last_active = ". time() .", t_uid = '$uid' , i_session_counter = ". intval(++$rec['i_session_counter']) ." WHERE session_id = '$session_id'"; } $rows_affected = pg_cmdtuples(pg_exec($db_session,$query)); //error_log($query, 0); if (!$rows_affected) { error_log('session_write(): Failed to INSERT or UPDATE session.',0); } return $rows_affected; }

I was thrilled to see the set_error_handler() functionality in PHP4, however we are having trouble implementing it because it cannot trap parse errors. Basically, we need to log any errors that occur to a MySQL database. In PHP3, we did this by hacking the source. Steve Meyers Build Manager MyComputer.com Our Tools. Your Site.

attached mail follows:

I'm make an object or an array from the results of a query to my MySQL database. The value returned is entered in <option>s and any repeated values are unwanted. Is there a way to remove them easily?

eg. <select> <? $qid = mysql_query("SELECT this FROM that WHERE here"); while ($r = mysql_fetch_object($qid)) { ?> <option><?=$r->this?></option> <? } ?> </select>

I was thinking of creating an array before the while, then in the while add each "$r->this" if "(! in_array($arr))". Then I would have to do another while with the <option> included. But I'm not really sure how to add elements to existing arrays. And that might not even be the best way. Any iteas?

IMHO: always make the database manipulate the data for you, if it can. It's usually much faster, and requires less code.

In this case just do:

SELECT DISTINCT this FROM that WHERE here

and you won't get any duplicates. Great huh? :)

Refer to the MySQL manual at http://www.mysql.com/docs/ for more details.

Hi there, I'm having difficulties, hoping I could get some help..

I have two links, "Next" and "Previous". I want the Next button to load the next image, and previous for previous. I have the links setup like so: http://bla.com/bla.php?image=# where # is a number, starting with 1. I want for # to increase by one each time a user clicks it, as well as load that numbers image. I wanted to define each # as a link to that image.

Thanks, Chris

attached mail follows:

there are numerous posts on the list regarding this subject, I will give some code examples, I hope this helps.

<?php

include_once("database.egn");

$HOW_MANY = 10;

if (!isset($pos)) $pos = 0;

$pos_prev = $pos - $HOW_MANY; $pos_next = $pos + $HOW_MANY;

$product_count = fetch_db_value('site', '');

while ($site = fetch_db_value('site', "LIMIT $pos, $HOW_MANY") ) { echo $site['site_address'] ."<br>\n"; }

echo " <html> <body> ";

if ($pos_prev >= 0) echo " <a href='$PHP_SELF?pos=$pos_prev'>Back</a> ";

echo " <a href='$PHP_SELF?pos=0'>Home</a> ";

if ( $pos_next < $product_count ) echo " <a href='$PHP_SELF?pos=$pos_next'>Next</a> ";

echo " </body> </html> ";

simple, no complicated code here :) KISS.

this can be easily modified to handle one at a time, change HOW_MANY = 1;

Hello-

Does anybody have any example code for using CyberCash w/o the Merchant Connection Kit? I'm trying to setup secure credit card transactions on my site using CyberCash, but my provider doesn't have & won't install the MCK (no PHP support for it either). I haven't tried installing the MCK myself, but from my previous experience with it, I would rather just find a way around using it.

So I guess all I really need to know is if somebody has another way of using CyberCash with PHP without using their software.

Thanks, Ben Schumacher

attached mail follows:

Ben,

In order to use the Cybercash functions in php, you must have php installed with cybercash support. You can't compile php with cybercash support without the MCK. If your provider won't do it, you could always compile a PHP cgi binary with the cybercash extensions(or find a different provider).

when I create a file on the local filesystem with fopen($filename) I cant unlink($filename) the same file. I got allways an error message, the scipt with uid 500 can not delete the file with uid 0. Is there a way to create the file with uid 500?

Thanks Fredy

attached mail follows:

Thanks, that's what i thought. The perl script is mine so it must be the perl interpreter kicking out the code. But I have the definitive perl "camel" book and it doesn't list any numeric codes. i'd ask a perl forum about where i can look up error codes but this time i solved the problem. It was a safe_mode violation: /bin/perl was not in my safe_mode_exec_dir directory (as defined by php.ini).

Isn't this redundant? Your test is really if send = 1 do something, otherwise do something else.

and I think this will always be true once PHP has offloaded the mail to the MTA, even if the MTA drops it on the floor.

Failing that, you might need to look carefully at the actual content of the message - not getting any unexpected characters or somesusch???

I need some help passing a variable to a popup window. The following form collects input from the user and stores it in the variable $summary.

<? print "<FORM action=\"hint.php\" METHOD=\"post\">"; $summary = "Hellow universe"; print "<INPUT TYPE=\"hidden\" name=\"summary\" value=\"$summary\"> "; print "<input type=\"submit\" value=\"Try This\" onClick=\"window.open('hint.php', 'remote', 'menubar,scrollbars,resizable,width=350,height=200,left=20,top=20'); return false;\">"; print "</form>"; ?>

When you click on the "Try This" button, hint.php opens up in another, smaller window just like I wanted. But the variable $summary doesn't show up

<? //hint.php script says this

//THIS LINE PRINTS print "Here's the hint:<BR>"; //BUT NOT THIS ONE print $summary; ?>

If I take JavaScript out of the submit coding, the browser window moves to hint.php and prints the $summary variable.

I'm much more comfortable with PHP than JavaScript. How can I deliver the text in $summary to a second, smaller window?

Thank you.

Try:

window.open('hint.php?summary=" . urlencode($summary) . "', ....)

Realise that the pop-up window is a totally separate document, from the web server's point of view, hence hint.php cannot magically get the value of $summary from the form page.

Thanks for your reply. Code sample only for to show what is does...

In real code, there is no undefiend functions. (I always write code with maximun error reporting level with any language. PHP error reporting is set to E_ALL)

I changed code as follows, but no luck. Logic is not changed at all. I put code in regist_user() function to index.php and get rid of the lines "function() {" and corresponding "}". (PHP stops executing script TWICE though) -----------index.php--------------- if ($HTTP_POST_VARS['submit_btn']) { <= ** if I put die('died here') before include, PHP outputs 'died here' as expected; ** include('HTML_FILE_I_WANT_TO_DISPLAY_IF_USER_HIT_SUBMIT_BUTTON'); <= This isn't displayed at all. <=** if I put die('died here') after include, PHP DOES NOT outputs 'died here' as expected; ** exit; } else { include('HTML_FILE_I_WANT_TO_DISPLAY_BY_DEFAULT'); <= this is displyed exit; } -------------- end -------------- PHP displays default page, but not the page when user hit submit button. PHP sends following HTML instead of HTML file that I want to display which is the same HTML when I didn't put any output in PHP file. No matter what I do in HTML or AFTER include statement. PHP (before include(), PHP works as usual) send following HTML to browser.

-------------- <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=euc-jp"></HEAD> <BODY></BODY></HTML> --------------

Strange behavior is code is executed BEFORE the include statement for sure. (Because die('died here') displyed) PHP does not display HTML file that I want to and outputs after include(). (File is there for sure and the file is normal file, not a symlink or like) (include,require,or like does not make any difference)

I'm suspecting recent PHP4 source code has 8bit unclean code somewhere. I use EUC-JP charset and it supposed to work if source code is 8bit clean. (I haven't checked with older PHP yet nor build PHP with debug.)

Anyway, looks like I have to simplify my code to see in what condition include/require stops working as expected.

PS: Do not try with code as follows - it works as expected. <?php if (isset($HTTP_POST_VARS['sub_btn'])) { include('test2.php'); exit; } else { include('test3.php'); exit; } ?>

[If you have comments on this please send e-mail to me]

I think PHP4.0.4pl1 has unsafe code for 8bit char codes. I suspect PHP4 does this:

PHP4 behavior: Script is executed TWICE and included file is not processed 1) PHP parse script and start executing. - The script check username data in db, if there is the same username, return error. If not, insert new username into db. 2) PHP encounters 8bit char unclean code some where near include() and restart script execution from the beginning for some reason. - The script written to include() file for successful user registration.

PHP inserts new username into db at 1st execution, then it finds the same username in db and return error for 2nd execution. If I put die('died here') BEFORE include(), PHP stops execution and outputs 'died here'. but not AFTER include(). I was using 'ob_gzhandler', disabling it does not make difference.

This happened when user registration check/insert was done in function defined in included file. PHP also does not log any errors.

PHP4 behavior: Script does not process included file and outputs default HTML. 1) PHP parse script and start executing. 2) PHP encounters 8bit char unclean code some where near include(), and outputs default HTML for null output and stops execution for some reason.

Therefore, I can see output from die('died here') if I put BEFORE include(), but not AFTER include().

This happened when user registration check/insert was done in the script itself. The script logic is identical. PHP does not log any errors.

I use EUC (Extended Unix Code), EUC-JP to be specific, for char code, which is supposed to work well with 8bit char code clean programs.

[Environment] OS: RadHat Linux7.0.1/ja(i386) FTP version (no glibc update) Apache: Apache 1.3.17 w/ mod_ssl-2.8.0, mod_gzip-1.13.17a. build from source PHP: PHP4.0.4pl1 w/ pgsql-7.0.3, gd-1.8.3, mhash, mcript and others. build from source. - ECU-JP for all html, php scripts PHP Configure: './configure' '--with-apxs' '--disable-short-tags' '--enable-bcmath' '--with-zlib-dir' '--enable-ftp' '--with-imap' '--with-mhash' '--with-mcrypt' '--with-pgsql' '--with-swf' '--enable-sysvsem' '--enable-sysvshm' '--with-zlib' '--enable-iconv' '--with-kakasi' '--enable-jstring' '--enable-mbregex' '--with-namazu' '--with-gd=../gd-1.8.3/' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr' '--with-xpm-dir=/usr/X11R6'

I cannot think of any reasonable explanation for this strange PHP4 behavior other than possibility that glibc has bugs. (8bit char unsafe code, etc. I haven't research about my exact glibc version nor bugs yet.)

Any comments appreciated.

Somebody else had a similar problem recently and the broad outcome was that the script is trying to access parts of a mysql result set that doesn't exist. Check the recent archives for more detail.

You can run php from the command line as a standalone app.

Compole PHP as a stand-alone CGI program (read the INSTALL file) and then run it like:

localhost$ /path/to/php -f myFile.php

Or you can also run it withing a shell or perl script the same way (maybe through a system() call in perl)

Hello Everyone,

Could someone please explain the whole % thing? I sort of understand it, but not quite. My goal is to have a table, and have every row alternate between 4 colors. I can alternate sort of alternate between 3, but not quite. I have tried lots of different combinations, but I can't figure it out. Thank you very much!

Maybe there should be a better link to it in the manual. The only one I could find was at http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.math.php, but it is far from clear (to me at least....).

% is the modulus operator, it tells you the remainder after dividing two numbers.

For example, 5 % 4 will give you the remainder after 5 / 4, which is 1.

A common use for this is to check if a number is even or odd, by doing modulus 2. E.g.

<? function even_or_odd($number) { if ($number % 2) // if remainder is not 0 { return "odd"; } else // remainder is 0 { return "even"; } }

echo even_or_odd(4); // even echo even_or_odd(13); // odd ?>

A practical application of that is inside a for-loop you increment a number and return a different colour value depending on whether it's even or odd, to give e.g. each row of a table an alternating background colour.

In your case if you want to alternate between four colours, all you need to do is change to modulus 4 instead of modulus 2, i.e. $number % 4, and then check if the remainder is 0, 1, 2 or 3.

Well, this is a mathematical concept rather than PHP language-specific. :)

Perhaps you should be looking in Arithmetical Operators www.php.net/manual/en/language.operators.php

The modulus operator gives you the value of the remainder after dividing a by b, so 4 % 3 will give a result of 1; ie 3 goes into 4 once and leaves a remainder of 1

Or 10 % 3 also gives a result of 1; 20 % 6 gives 2 etc.

Now for your particular problem of alternating table colors, you don't necessarily need the modulus operator, but using it you could implement thus:

$color = array('#ffffff'=>0, 'blue'=>1, 'red' =>2, 'green' =>3); $row_num = 0; $how_many_colors = 4; while { //Build your row producing logic here echo "<TR BGCOLOR=\"$color[$row_num % $how_many_colors]\">"; // Rest of row info $row_num++;

}

Mind you, there might be the odd syntax error there; I didn't test this at all :-) but hopefully you get the idea. The value of $row_num % $how_many_colors will cycle through 0 - 3 and act as the subscript for the array of colours. If you want more colours, just increase the number of values in the array and adjust $how_many_colors accordingly.

Hello guys, This is that time when I am in trouble ... One of our internal databases receives inputs from all kind of different places and stores them for later reviews. Since it's creation it was all going perfectly well, but now it has a little problem: The Internet Explorer gives me this error while listing one of databases' tables: (it is a pop up message of internet explorer)

---- Internet Explorer Cannot Open the internet site http://that.damn.db/database.php <http://that.damn.db/database.php> ?db=opp_post The download of the specified resource has filed. ---- What is it, PHP or IE? I suppose something is wrong with IE (5.01 for instance), but so far couldn't come with any solution. The output is simply not there, source shows cuted off at the very beginning of file - after few hundreds of bytes. This suggests me that one of the entries in Database is somehow corrupting IE. But I have not found anything strange. What to look for, guys? I tested it on Opera and Netscape - no probs whatsoever. I also tested it on Linux, and Mac (Opera, Netscape) - no probs whatsoever. ...and (listen to this one)... I tested it on Mac, MSIE 5.(01)? (just the version I have on my Win2k) -- and It gave me no errors at all. Why MSIE 5.01 of Win2k gives that message and breaks download? I've seen this messages already while browsing the web, and that's the reason I'm asking you: anyone had to fix that before? What are your guesses on my problem? It is quite urgent since the database is not usable and I don't have much time for researches on this issue. The sad thing is that our office uses the exactly same configured machines (MSIE5 - Win2k) and no one can view the database from their PCs. All the sales and coordinators are staying here in line near my MAC while I am writing you this. Any help is greatly appreciated!

You see Boaz, this is slightly different. It is not "Connection could not established" troubleshooted by MS KBase as -- click TCP/IP ... then click advanced .... This is "Download of specified resource has failed" persisting on every machine in this office.

(Win2k running MSIE 5.01 only).

I wonder if IE finds something interesting between the pockets received and then breaks file download without seeing EOF. What so funny do I output?... ths is the question.

Well, it doesn't make any sense upgrading. On my Mac all works fine, on my Win2K I usually use Opera 5 identified as MSIE and it works as well.

Proxy, nope I go behind it. Some go thru...

the problem stays no matter what.

Security settings? again, makes no sense, I think, most of the users having this problem have never touched Internet Options. server? no SSL, nothing... accessible internally, behind firewall.

I wonder what is the problem of Explorer in terms of compatibility with headers, flushes and other PHP Functions directly influencing browsers.

I've seen that error (from different machines, locations but always on MSIE5*) on a whole bunch of websites running on PHP, including PHP.net. And now that I think, these usually were databases etc... Like function reference on PHP.net

I know that what I am saying doesn't really make much sense - PHP is on server and a browser is on client side. I just wonder if there can be some other details.... something with web server ?...

I do not need to upgrade, I can just get onto my MAC (MSIE 5 : Mac edition) and see it working. I know it's client side problem. But it wasn't born just like that. There's something (or better say MSIE 5.01) interrupting the download of file. No errors in apache log files also suggests that IE quit instantly without saying anything to apache.

and think of this scenario..

the database:

Everything works, table 1 is cool, table 2 is fast, table 3 is interesting, but not table 4 (opp_post), which is the ONLY damn table - troublemaker. Yes, you guessed it: it is same db file. There's an SQL query which look something like "SELECT id, f1, f2, f3, f4, whatever FROM $db LIMIT 30"; The variable $db is what goes through GET. (for instance opp_post, it's is real name, very valid, I guess...)

Very simple.

Of course the guess is that there's something in database. Some particular entry, characters... BUT, nothing so funny that I can blame! I cannot remove the entries from DB for security reasons, but I have very carefully searched for any unescaped character, strange peace of code, anything strange from now till the moment the problem showed up.

I found nothing to blame.

It cannot be that no one of you have never seen that? I've seen it on the web and never though it could happen to me!!

Thanks anyway, guys, If you got any ideas and see no "FIXED" in this thread subject - write me I am here not sleeping.

Hi!

Thanx for replying to my mail.

Well See I have for example two pages. login.php inside.php

So when a person clicks on inside.php it checks for the cookie meaning inside.php has a cookie checking code in it. If cookie uis not found it will take him to the login.php page and on successful login he will again be taken to the page he came from which in this case is inside.php.

Can u guide me with some more details please.

Thank You! Dhaval Desai

It's very funny these emails :)

1st, it's berber and not Mr. Yahav (like Mr. Gates).

2nd, every now and then comes someone that has no idea about the WeberDev.com background and thinks We are here for the $1,000,000's.

A few words of correction :

1. WeberDev.com has been around since April 1998. Till sometime in 2000 There was only me, Mr. berber, devoting much of my time to set this site up (days and nights), after that came Rafi to help.

2. We do not make $$$ from the site nor is it our main job. I'm a software engineer working for an ISP and Rafi is a lawyer, we both keep WeberDev.com as a hobby and for the benefit of the PHP community. 3. While people may think this is a big company, with tens of developers and content writers, I can assure you that it's only Me and Rafi. We pay from our own pockets for the hosting and some more things that are needed to run a site like this and relay on the good will of the community to help where it can.

4. As for the jobs / projects area, it's a place for people to find workers or for companies or individuals that need projects done for them to find developers to do it for them. WeberDev.com is only an intermediate. We do not collect any $$$ from this. This is a free service like any other service on WeberDev.com. and as we all know, not everything can be done by email.

I hope this sheds some light about the commercial level of this site. And as to free advertisement, I think that the PHP list is a perfect place to get free advertisement for a site like WeberDev.com, since we are here for the community.

Richard Bradley,

Posting to PHP general mailing list asking for help has never been a problem in the past. Mr Yahav should have mentioned that he is the owner operator of weberdev.com, and that he has financial interest in contract positions posted on his site.

If there was a mistake in net-etiquette, it was not your mistake Richard, but Mr. Yahav's. He should have clearly stated that his email, to you and to the list, was an advertisement for his site.

Best of luck trying to find help with installation. I have forwarded your request to a friend of mine that might be able to help. If you don't have luck getting help, please repost and I'm sure someone will be happy to give assistance.

Yup, and I am your competitor!

PHPBeginner.com is about to be something like WeberDev.com (which I personally very much like and respect) Remember, Berber, my postings of on WeberDev.com which you replied me back to:

from your email: August 23, 2000 " Hi

Why did you post an article from Zend as an example? did you write the article?

Sincerely

berber "

I then replied to you: " Hi Boaz,

No, I did not write the article, I just thought how useful it can be for beginners to start writing classes in PHP. I appologize if what I did was against your rules. If it was then please remove my entry from your database.

Maxim Maletsky "

and then you explained it to me: "

It's not against any rule but it think it doesn't look good to add an example as a link to another site which is a competitor. At least not without asking first.

I took it off for now.

thanks for the try though, and don't hesitate to add more examples in the future :)

Sincerely

berber

I know it doesn't look nice, but, common, we are talking about open source technology... a little of allowance would be nice since you are not really earning anything.

Guess what, that day a though came to my mind, why not to write some articles and compete with you?

I have a dedicated server in New York all for my own, for a different business I do, so I'll just build a website and dedicate it to the beginners of PHP Community, they'll love it. I'll write some staff for them and so on...

Newbies to me, advancers to you!

Too bad I cannot dedicate all of my time to PHPBeginner.com, I am a senior developer here in Tokyo in an IT PRE-IPO. Have a whole bunch of things to do, plus my hobbies are helping out developers at Source Forge and reading tutorials of things I don't know "C or Java for example, advanced web usability design"

I am not hoping to earn much from the site, nor I can lose much, I will only bring more curiosity for these who ask : "hey, what's the difference between echo and print ?"

I do really care about this idea:

"Making webmasters and Perl/C/Java Programmers interested in PHP."

I won't have a code database, nor I'll have much content at the beginning. No sales online ... a banner only allowing me sometimes get a day off from work :-))

a newbie uses my site until he know too much and thinks it is boring then he goes to elsewhere like WeberDev.com or PHPBuilder.com

Check it Out PHPBeginner.com - will open very soon! Today, in few hours from now!

Cheers, Maxim Maletsky

Because then you're not using SSL, and the URL format should work if you use OpenLDAP 2.x.x libraries, and it does work for me. I've tested it on Linux and I know people using this heavily on Solaris as well.

OK, Thanks everyone for trying to help me out. I think I have "fixed" it.

All I've done was:

inside a function repeating on each row I changed -

if($int) return "<FONT COLOR=\"#FF0000\">$good</FONT>";

with -

if($int) return "<FONT COLOR=\"#FF0000\">$good</FONT> ";

...and it worked.... In this way there's more data and different file size is being sent to the browser. I wish I new why.... why it worked ... what was the problem...

My only guess - packets.

Something was wrong with pockets, or file size...

the file size differs now, and it works...

Geez....

I will investigate on this. This is just too funny to forget about.

IE is so buggy....

P.S: As I wrote in my first post: "If any friends of Bill are around the list, please forward him my happy moments and eventual sweet words".

Upgrading to IE 5.5 will tell you if it's a client problem or maybe a server problem.

Well, it doesn't make any sense upgrading. On my Mac all works fine, on my Win2K I usually use Opera 5 identified as MSIE and it works as well.

Proxy, nope I go behind it. Some go thru...

the problem stays no matter what.

Security settings? again, makes no sense, I think, most of the users having this problem have never touched Internet Options. server? no SSL, nothing... accessible internally, behind firewall.

I wonder what is the problem of Explorer in terms of compatibility with headers, flushes and other PHP Functions directly influencing browsers.

I know that what I am saying doesn't really make much sense - PHP is on server and a browser is on client side. I just wonder if there can be some other details.... something with web server ?...

Cheers, Maxim Maletsky

Since I can't get to your URL I can only give ideas :)

Did you try to upgrade the IE on one of the computers to IE5.5 and see if the problem goes away?

Do you use a proxy?

Are your security settings set to default?

Hello All!

I am implementing a database application using PHP4 and MSSQL2000. I have a database table which has a large no. of tuples. I want to display the data in the form of pages with Prev Next buttons.

I wanted to know if there is some syntax in the MSSQL Select statement which can allow me to limit the no. of records being returned. I am lookin at functionality which is similar to LIMIT in Mysql.

for ex, LIMIT 10,10 in MYSQL returns to me a maximum of 10 records starting from the 10th record in the returned recordset.

is there any similar functionality available in MSSQL.

if not, how should I go about implementing this functionality.

I would also appreciate if someopone could point me to a good tutorial on the subject using MSSQL server as the database server.

The problem is in this last bit here, where you've entered "this is a test. let's see if this goes through." Despite PHP autmotacially putting in the backslash for you, it won't work. MySQL sees the ' as being the end of that variable. Many of the clients seem to be able to encode this by themselves, but PHP doesn't. So you need to run urlencode() over this kind of stuff.

As you use double quotes here, PHP will interpret the "\t" in there as TAB character. Write "C:\\temp.exe" instead.

Well, it would help if you'd tell us what goes wrong - error messages, things it should do but doesnt ...

Hi! Can you use a php-script to see if there is someone on your homepage? Im going to make a demo with flash, php,xml and xsl and if more than one at the moment are testing the demo, it won´t work beacause of the work-file is cleaned up every time someone enters.If you can see a digit on the page than you can tell visitor to goto another instance of the page.

Thanks for help. Regards

This is a big philosophical question.

If you drop a stone a million times you still can't predict that it'll fall the next time unless you know the mechanism. Gravity is something we still don't really understand but with software YOU WROTE THE CODE.

You still need to test to check your code but more important is proving it by checking the logic. Once you've done this you know the sorts of things that need testing (boundary conditions, etc.).

Just using and banging numbers through a program doesn't prove it works (although it can prove it doesn't). This sort of testing should only be done after you've proved the program to satisfy the bean-counters.

the smtp part is configured like this: [mail function] SMTP = mysmtpserver sendmail_from = emanuele.defaziosemagroup.it

there something else inside php.ini that I should change?

P.S. other scripts work fine...I have this error just in using mail();
