Eeeek. Have a look at the Mysql manual sometime soon!
$sql = mysql_query("delete from table where datefield <= DATE_SUB(NOW(),
INTERVAL $days DAY)", $dbh);

Oh come on! If you are going to use a database why not USE IT fully? If you are going to treat it like a flat file, why bother installing it in the first place?

hi
im running iis5 with php 4.04 as isapi accessing an interbase6 database
i get the following error : PHP has encountered an Access Violation at 78003ABF
this error occurs once an sql statement is run, the sql statement takes a paramater from a select box and then runs.It runs fine for a number of entries except for one entry that bombs it out with the above error. The query should return about 9900 records. The exact query has run once but since then bombs out with the error. I have made no changes and the same query executes perfectly if i run it through IBConsole
im pretty sure its a server problem, can anyone confirm this or help out? if it is a server error how can it be fixed?
this is quite urgent
thanks

Is there documentation anywhere about how I can do that? I've only installed PHP on my Windows machine. Thanks. Jeff Oien

Here's another story to use as an "I told you so" if you choose to try them anyway.
CI Host. We have been hosting with them for almost two years now. The only reason we never left was because we couldn't find anyone else offering the same redundant connections that we could actually verify. A lot of people claim to have these awesome networks, but have you ever actually tried to find out detailed information about their network? You know, like location, security, who their providers are, etc. Most likely they are not a real hosting provider, but just someone else with a dedicated hosting package on someone else's network. You'd be amazed.
Here are just some of the situations we've had to endure with CI Host.
We were hosting a NT client who we wrote a CGI application for. When one of our admins put the CGI application in the cgi-bin and attempted to execute it they got a permission error saying they couldn't execute the application. So they went to the support chat to try to get one of the technical support staff to see why the permissions were failing. After 30 minutes of waiting on others currently being helped they started evaluating the situation. After our admin explained what was going on the technician said, you shouldn't be allowed to execute EXE's on our servers. Then for the shocker. The technician revoked our execute permissions and muted our admin in chat. This of course, not only prevented our application from working, but every other stock cgi which is provided by CI Host in the cgi-bin with all new hosting accounts. Needless to say this took several days to sort out and there was no apology.
We signed up some dial-up accounts for a few of our employees to use from home. We did the request online and the accounts were activated the next day. These employees used these accounts for at least four months. We never received invoices for these accounts, though we asked every month why they were not on the invoices and they would say they'd look into it, which they never did. At the end of that four months we cancelled the dial-up accounts as those employees finally got cable connections at home so they didn't need us to provide them with dial-up access any longer. Anyhow, it was 2 months after that when we finally got an invoice. It was for all "6" months (they never cancelled the accounts) and they billed us for a dial-up package that we never activated. We simply activated a normal dial-up, but they billed us for some deluxe dial-up that included hosting and a slew of other features that we never used. So instead of $25.00 a month for each account for four months which should have been around $200.00 we were billed around $720.00 for 6 months of $60.00 a month dial-ups. It took 7 additional months to get that straightened out which caused our hosting account to be de-activated several times in the process because of our refusal to pay it. Even though the account was placed under review and promised it would not be shut down.
On at least 4 different occasions we have been hung up on by tech support. Once they even deleted all of the user accounts to MySQL on one of the servers we had a site on. This took several days to get straightened out. Their billing is anything but acceptable. Their technical support is sporadic at best. They seem to have outgrown their abilities and it shows in their day to day processes. While there are so many other things that I could post about it's really just ranting as we have finally found an alternative that we've been testing out for the past few months and we've been very happy with the results.
Check out MyBizHosting at http://www.mybizhosting.com/
They're fairly new, but their connection is just awesome and the technical support is great. While they don't give away the same amount of storage that CI Host does with all of their accounts you can upgrade the accounts whenever you need to. Besides, how many sites actually use 600MB of space? We only have one client that even exceeds 150MB. They have online billing and invoice history (which is actually accurate and current, unlike CI Host's online billing system). Their control panel (which is provided with every account puts CI Host's Monster Controls to shame) is also excellent. It allows you make changes to just about any aspect of your hosting account. So check them out if you haven't already. They've managed to impress us so far.

You can see by the "Data Center" Information:
-- The NoMonthlyFees.com NOC located in Baltimore, Maryland is OnNet with GlobalCenter (GC), Qwest Communications and GTE through three separate bandwidth-on-demand connections which enter Baltimore in our building. ---They are a reseller of Alabanza Servers. I wouldn't go with them.

This is actually a Vservers product. Vservers merged with HostPro back about 8 months ago. They continue to develop their own product line under the HostPro moniker with HostPro providing the font-line tech support and billing and of course taking all the credit.... ;-) It's a very flexible package, in fact the most flexible I've seen in a shared environment, hosted in a Seattle based data center connected via OC-48's (2.5 Gbps I believe?)

I disagree! We have had to pull clients off of them. Their site would go down for days at a time and their email would go down the same way. If you emailed support you might hear back from them in a day or two. If you called support, you would be lucky if you were not left on hold for 30 minutes or more. The straw that broke the camels back, they change their email system and didn't notify our clients.
In the end it took our clients lawyer to completely break off with them. they kept bill and writing threating letters for months.

The new accounts are the Freedom accounts. Great setup, speed, functionality. Pricing is competitive-ish too.
VServers have been bought by HostPro and I have to say that the level of service has gone down considerably since the move. VServers had 24/7 support and I think the longest it ever actually took to get something done (not just hear back from them) in the 9 months or so that I've been with them was about an hour.
HostPro is currently running at around the 24-72 hour mark. Definite culture shock. The premium that I was happily paying for VServers is starting to lose it's value to me - especially seeing the Freedom accounts (which AFAIK will replace the VServer line of products) are lacking some of the flexibility in the lower end accounts that was present in the previous setups at the same price point.

Yes, the tech support has been slow lately. I'm told they are receiving an unforeseen amount of inquiries with the release of the Freedom line due to the large number of non-Unix savvy users trying to use the new line. I'm also told that they are in the process of beefing up there tech support dept. to handle the additional load.
After complaining to my service rep about this he now takes my support inquires and moves them directly into an accelerated queue so we can get quicker responses.
I was told the freedom line will not replace the old Vserver lite, pro, merchant line. But your right about the flexibility in the lower end product.....

Does anyone know how I can do this? I've got the file but before I write it to the server I was to change a hex value in the file, does anyone know how this could be done?

edit the file with php or an editor like ultraedit? in ultraedit hit Ctrl-H
in php its no different then it would be opening an ascii file. no different, just make sure to use fwrite()

I've found out what's wrong with PHP4 partially. It might help people who are getting errors - document contains no data or like.
You may get various strange PHP4 behavior with (possibly without) combination of reference, foreach and array if you don't pass expected values to functions.

Hi,
is there suggestions how to determine what mime type is file? for example: .word -> application/wnd-word .pdf -> application/pdf
Files are on local disk. Not accessible from web server. I'm interesting to determine it on linux (Apache) and win32(IIS 4.0) platforms.
TIA,
-- Andris mailto:ajandris
attached mail follows:
when your uploading a file
<input type=file name=db_file>
php will create three variables,
$db_file $db_file_name $db_file_type
$db_file_type should have the mime/type. now should does NOT mean will. some browsers (I dont have a list) will not send the correct type at all.
you can use linux's file command
[leeserver streaming]$ file usermanual.pdf
usermanual.pdf: PDF document, version 1.3
[leeserver streaming]$
this will not give you the mime-type though. you can also use grep this will only give you what the server thinks is the mime-type, not what the client feels the mime-type is
[leeserver streaming]$ grep "pdf" /etc/mime.types
application/pdf pdf
[leeserver streaming]$
If your just curious of what a mime/type is without uploading it (I dont think you are) then youve answered your own question.
"Files are on local disk. Not accessible from web server. "
if php can not access the files then how could it possibly ever find this files mime-type ?

If you're using the odbc functions, then what's the purpose of FreeTDS?

Thanks, maybe I should have made myself a little clearer though
I am expecting more than one row to be returned from the db.
So how would I get the all the rows returned into an associative array?? The manual tells you how how it should, but I need to do it from mysql_fetch_array

Why not use a for loop instead?
for($i = 0; $db->next_record(); $i++) { $menu[$i]["name"] = $db->f("name"); $menu[$i]["url"] = $db->f("topic_id"); }
Then you can access them through another loop.

Why do you need to put the values in an array, then read through the array to print the values? Why not just print each record as you get it from the DB?

Hi!
I just want to get the URL of the page that is redirecting to the other page. For example..
I have two files login.php something.php
Something.php has a line saying:
<?php
header ("Location: ./login.php");
?>
So When I open Something.php it automatically takes me to login.php. On the login.php page I have the following lines....
<?php
echo $HTTP_REFERER;
?>
It doesn't seem to work. I think the problem is because I don't click and go to something.php. I am getting redirected to the file./ SO is there nay other way I can get the URL of the file Which is redirecting.
Thanx a lot

Hello,
I am attempting to compile php 4.0.4pl1 as a dynamic shared module for Apache 1.3.12 on a Redhat 6.2 box. I followed the detailed directions, and upon attempting make install it went along fine, until...
*snip*
Making install in regex
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/php-4.0.4pl1/regex'
make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/php-4.0.4pl1/regex'
make[2]: Nothing to be done for `install-p'.

[rootserver php-4.0.4pl1]#
-----
I checked the output from make, and aside from a few warnings, there was no indication that anything had failed. So I checked the directory, and surely enough, the shared library had not been compiled. So I read the manpage for apxs and came up with....
[rootserver php-4.0.4pl1]# /usr/httpsd/bin/apxs -i -a -c -n php4
libs/libphp4.a
gcc -shared -o libs/libphp4.so libs/libphp4.a

chmod 755 /usr/httpsd/libexec/libphp4.so
[activating module `php4' in /usr/httpsd/conf/httpsd.conf]
[rootserver php-4.0.4pl1]#
-----
So now I had the compiled shared library, and reran "make install", so that all the steps after where it had failed earlier would be carried out, everything seemed to go well, until....
[rootserver conf]# /usr/httpsd/bin/httpsdctl configtest
Syntax error on line 215 of /usr/httpsd/conf/httpd.conf:

/usr/httpsd/libexec/libphp4.so: /usr/httpsd/libexec/libphp4.so:

[rootserver conf]#
-----
The line in question, reads as... LoadModule php4_module libexec/libphp4.so -----
The above line was automagically inserted for me by the make install script.
So here I am stuck, out of ideas, and sending a poorly formatted email to the LOSURS list. Please accept my apologies for any long lines, I think my email client should wrap them automatically though. Any ideas or suggestions?

Is it possible to pull an image, stored as binary data in a mySQL table, and display it on a page inline? So it acts as if the image was pulled from the file system normally?
If it is possible, could you point me to some online resources that would give information on how this is done? I've tried a few things on my end to no avail. I've also searched a few PHP sites (PHPBuilder, etc) but couldn't find anything there (I could be doing the wrong searches).
In any case, any information would be most helpful!!

Ok, I'm new to sessions and have a few questions...
Here is my plan. I'm running a news type web site where subscribers have different privileges on what they can view and download. The privileges are stored in a mySQL DB. My plan is to make users login (thereby starting a session with all their permission data). We will also allow the users to save their login and password as a cookie, thereby starting a new session every time they visit the web site.
Using sessions to serve as a logged on status I'm pretty sure I can do authentication for PHP pages. However my worry is when someone types in a URL to get a PDF file. So what I was thinking of doing was writing an apache module that did the following:
When a file with .pdf is asked for it looks to see if the user is currently in a session (aka 'logged on'). I'm guessing the module can know this by using the HTTP headers. Figuring we can look to see if its giving a cookie with the sid or its part of the URL.
Ok, question 1: If I compile with -enable-trans-sid is the sid included as part of the HTTP header? Also my understanding is if i complied with this I don't have put the SID in each URL, if so and cookies are available on the client side which will PHP use?
Once the module has the sid it can read the cookie like file related to that SID in the /tmp dir and figure out what the user's privileges are.
Question 2: I was looking at the values in the php.ini file
[Session] session.save_handler = files ; handler used to store/retrieve data session.save_path = /tmp ; argument passed to save_handler ; in the case of files, this is the ; path where data files are stored session.use_cookies = 1 ; whether to use cookies session.name = PHPSESSID ; name of the session ; is used as cookie name session.auto_start = 0 ; initialize session on request startup session.cookie_lifetime = 0 ; lifetime in seconds of cookie ; or if 0, until browser is restarted session.cookie_path = / ; the path the cookie is valid for session.cookie_domain = ; the domain the cookie is valid for session.serialize_handler = php ; handler used to serialize data ; php is the standard serializer of PHP session.gc_probability = 1 ; percentual probability that the ; 'garbage collection' process is started ; on every session initialization session.gc_maxlifetime = 1440 ; after this number of seconds, stored ; data will be seen as 'garbage' and ; cleaned up by the gc process session.referer_check = ; check HTTP Referer to invalidate ; externally stored URLs containing ids session.entropy_length = 0 ; how many bytes to read from the file session.entropy_file = ; specified here to create the session id ; session.entropy_length = 16 ; session.entropy_file = /dev/urandom session.cache_limiter = nocache ; set to {nocache,private,public} to ; determine HTTP caching aspects session.cache_expire = 180 ; document expires after n minutes session.use_trans_sid = 1 ; use transient sid support if enabled ; by compiling with --enable-trans-sid
Now according to this the cookie like files should be deleted after 1440 seconds, but on my machine their not. Any reason why?
Thanks for you help ahead of time the few of you out there who might dare to tacle these questions.
If anyone out there can point me to some good copy on PHP sessions and how they work under the hood please do so.
thanks Mike

you can handle that with php also, if you don't allow direct download. instead you write a download skript that first checks for login, then sends the proper header to handle the download and then passes the data to the user. you can find information about that in the manual at www.php.net/header

the 1440 is just when the data is identified as garbage. after that also the garbage collector must be invoked. you have a gc_probability of 1% set, so it's not very likely they will be deleted soon....

When we post a new issue online we include a url right to the PDF. Not to say we can't change that link to be somthing like:
http://www.mysite.com/download.php?file=/TSR/0104/fullissue.pdf
However all the old emails that are out there would still point right to the PDF. So I guess we could make apache FWD and PDF GET requests to the following script. Hmmm. Well I'll think about it.
Thanks for all the help Sebastian.

Hang on, this is going to be a wild ride...
Lets say that you currently keep your pdf's in TSR/issue/fullissue.pdf, and that TSR is constant, issue changes each issue and fullissue.pdf may or may not be the only file in the issue directory. You hit the issue mentioned above at http://www.mysite.com/TSR/0104/fullissue.pdf.
OK, here is what you do.
Add the following to .htaccess or httpd.conf, in the virtual host block for www.mysite.com. If it is not a virtual host, it can be added anywhere near the bottom of the config file.
<Location /TSR> ForceType application/x-httpd-php </Location>
If you are using php3, it is application/x-httpd-php3
This makes apache execute the file TSR as if it was TSR.php, without having to have the .php extension.
Now move your entire TSR directory outside of document root.
Create a PHP program that checks to see if they are logged in and name it TSR. Place it in DocumentRoot or where ever you just removed the real TSR directory from.
If they are logged in when the program is hit, then look in $PATH_INFO, which in this example will return '/0104/fullissue.php'. (Check me on the leading /, it might not be there.) Now you use $PATH_INFO and the path to where you moved the TSR directory to create the name of the file to send to them. Send your headers, then use readfile() to send the pdf.

Yes. When comparing types, PHP generally typcasts one side of the operand to the type of what is on the other side. So in the above operation, it is typecasting "yes" to an integer and so becomes a '0' (zero). Because of that, 0 == 0 and so resolves true. What you want to do is
echo "$confidential " . ("$confidential" == "yes");
and you'll get your expected results.

$confidential = 0; # Numeric 0
That explains the 0.
$confidential == "yes"
This is a little tricky. The numeric value of 'yes' is 0, so it evaluates to the same thing as 0 == 0, which is true. True has a numeric value of 1, although all values besides 0 are considered true.
You might want to look at the === operator which checks that both the value and the type of the operands is identical.

or...
<?php
$confidential = 0; echo "$confidential " . ((string)$confidential == 'yes');
?>
that forces the comparison to be compared as a string. this only has to be done sometimes, usually php is quite good at determining what you want.

Okay,
To insert data into an AS400 system (proven on Ver 4.4) you must first:
Begin Journaling for the the file to insert into
This is done by issuing the following command at the command prompt:
STRJRNPF FILE(lib/file) JRN(jrnllib/jrnlfile)
(where test is your libs and files)

Hi,
I'm in a quandary here. I have a form which contains sever tables each containing similar fields. The number of tables are dynamic based on vales I retrieve from a database. Each table has the following fields:
$name $phone $fax
In order to differentiate the filed names in my form, I created a loop and extended each field name with the loop iteration as such ($rownum is my loop counter):
<snip> <input type="text" name="name" . $rownum . ">" <input type="text" name="phone" . $rownum . ">" <input type="text" name="fax" . $rownum . ">"
So I would have field variables of: $name1, $name2, $name3, ... $phone1, $phone2, $phone3, ... $fax1, $fax2, $fax3, ...
So far so good as I have verified that these fields exist.
Now, when the user clicks on the submit button, the form data gets posted to a PHP script. I wish to access the variables but here I am at a loss. I attempted the following code without success ($rownum is the number of tables I created):
for ($i = 1; $i <= $rownum; $i++) { $field = "phone" . $i; $name =& $field; echo $field . ":" . $name . "\n"; }
The docs state that references are NOT pointers. So....., how can I access my variables? I could not find any information on Macros or Pointers.
Thanks, Don

ok here we are, your code is *almost* correct, but even syntaxialy correct doesnt mean it should be used :) use arrays, its a tone easier. to fix your code change
$name =& $field;
to
$name = $$field;
now to make the code, a ton easier to use, use arrays.
<?php ...
echo " <input type=text name=name[$people_id] value='somedata'> ";
... ?>
<?php ...
foreach($name as $pos => $val) { echo $val; }
... ?>
arrays are great things, use them lost :) haha

Maybe this approach is simpler.
If you create your fields like this: <? ... echo '<input type="text" name="name['.$rownum.']">'; echo '<input type="text" name="phone['.$rownum.']">'; echo '<input type="text" name="fax['.$rownum.']">'; ... ?> then after submitting you will have arrays: $name, $phone, $fax.
Now, for values from first table use: $name[0], $phone[0], $fax[0]. For second: $name[1], $phone[1], $fax[1]. etc...
And there's no need for huge amount of variables.
Hope this helps. :)

FreeBSD 4.1 Php version 4.0.4pl1 FreeType Version 2 from http://freetype.sourceforge.net gd 1.8.4 from http://www.boutell.com/gd/
i installed libpng per gd's requirements.
i compiled freetype2 first and got no errors.
I had to edit the Makefile in the gd directory to include the following path:

then i get the following errors:

the list goes on........
So i edited the Makefile again and removed:
-DHAVE_LIBTTF and -lttf
and it compiles fine.
I recompiled php with:
'./configure' '--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql' '--with-xml' '--with-apache=../apache_1.3.17' '--enable-track-vars' '--with-gd=/usr/local/include/gd' '--with-zlib=/usr/local/lib' '--with-ttf=/usr/local/include/freetype2/freetype'

I'm no whiz with header types, so my attempts with the PHP.net docs wasn't too successful...
Here's the deal. My customer needs to upload an ASCII export file of database info generated by MS Access on their PC. I've written a script that allows them to upload their Access files then does a LOAD DATA INFILE command to integrate it into the MySQL database on the web server.
The problem is that whatever transfer method is used is causing some data corruption.
I ran into this problem before when I was manually FTPing export files then using LOAD DATA INFILE. I fixed it by switcheing from Binary FTP to ASCII FTP. How can this be done with a PHP script???

Previously on this list, there have been questions about the Warning: page has expired problem. When you submit a form, then press the back button, you get this message and have to press refresh before the page will redisplay.
I have discovered that if you use the following header command, the problem does not occur.
header("Cache-Control: public");
The back button takes you back to the form, without a warning message, and the form redisplays with the info you entered. Does anyone know a reason that the above header should not be used? Does it cause some sort of problem that I should be aware of?

However, my environment is such that I have register_globals "off", which seems to conflict with sessions.

They have virtual host packages starting at ten bucks. thickbook.com runs on a thirty bucks a month virtual hosting package, and it's just fine (as far as I can tell). PHP 4, MySQL at all levels of pricing, and you can control local PHP values with .htaccess, just fine.
I also have a 1U dedicated server there for $200/mo (www.mytrainingcamp.com) and am ecstatic about it.
So, go Hurricane!

well, most hosts do, but not many are using 3.23.30 or higher. I'm looking for a host that somebody knows for sure is running a current version of mysql.
thanks, - Mark
attached mail follows:
We're running 3.23.32, soon upgrading to .33 due to some security problems with .32 (either tonight or tomorrow), and running the latest release of PHP 4. Naturally, since I work for Granicus, I'm biased... but I think we're one of the better PHP hosts out there as far as services go. Our primary focus is colocation, but our hosting offering is PHP/MySQL centric (No postgres, very light perl support, etc), and the configuration of our machines shows it (we've actually in the process of writing a system that will allow you to analyze the performance if your scripts while they're running on your website).
In any case, I'm trying to stay on this list as a contributer rather than a
spammer so please excuse the shameless plug for my employer, but if you're
interested and/or can't find anyone else, drop us a line at
infogranicus.com and we'll give you all the gory details :)

What do you mean flatlines? Does the solaris machine's CPU move to ~100% utilization?
You might be hitting the automatic garbage collection. Use gstat -h to watch your transactions states. Particularly the oldest transaction and the oldest interesting transaction. By default an auto garbage collection kicks off when the difference between these two numbers is 20000.
If this is happening it might indicate that you aren't using your transactions as effective as possible. For example leaving them open for extended periods of time.
hope this helps, Brett Bandy

Don't reference the absolute path to php4.cgi in your .htaccess it has to be relative to the domain. Instead, try:

This is how I got PHP2 back. BUT, if you server is one of the ones that have been upgraded to FreeBSD 4, PHP4 is already installed.
Try to run "uname -v" when you log in. You may not have to compile PHP4 like this.
Or see if your server has been upgraded at http://support.pair.com/notices/stable-upgrade.html

It's not a very versatile (Can't define the extent to which a blur is done), but php_imlib does it. You could, of course, re-blur the text if it wasn't enough the first time. <shrug>. :)

Better yet, try doing a getImageSize() on the uploaded file, before you move it and look at the [2] element of what is returned. This will give you the actual type of file from inspecting its contents rather than just trusting the extension that was typed.

I have used your postgresql session functions in http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.session.php with few changes.

In a second php page I test - if login variable is set, if not I redirect to the login page. - if time has expired, if affirmative redirect to login page
I have added a "pg_session_destroy" in your "user functions" to delete the actual session but when I reenter in the login page the session_start() re-creates the data I have just deleted with the same session_id.

OK, making assumptions about the order of the fields in the form is dangerous.
Making assumptions about the order of an associative array is doubly so, although PHP seems remarkably forgiving about it.
But assuming that's really what you want:
<? $pairs = array();
foreach ( array_slice($HTTP_POST_VARS, 2) as $key => $value) $pairs[] = $key . "='" . $value . "'";
$updateString .= join(', ', $pairs); ?>

or:
$keys = array_keys($HTTP_POST_VARS); for($x = 2; $x < count($keys); $x++) { if($x != (count($keys) - 1)) { $updateString=$updateString.$keys[$x]."='".$HTTP_POST_VARS[$keys[$x]]."',"; } else { $updateString=$updateString.$keys[$x]."='".$HTTP_POST_VARS[$keys[$x]]."'"; } }

Hi, I am trying to do a simple encryption on a credit card number to store in a mysql text field. I also have to de-crypt the number after exporting to an access db. I tried to use xor encryption, but it seems to only work half the time, the other half, I can't seem to de-crypt the # properly, some of the numbers end up screwed. Is this because of the way mysql is storing the field? Mabye it can't recognize some of the characters that are generated from the xor encryption?
Ex: 123456789123 may end up 1 YdR and then de-crypts to 1234(*$8912#
Is it the that are the problem? Or is the the access database that isn't properly storing the ?
Is there a better way to do this?

probably the safest thing is instead of giving them a text field, give them 3 drop downs for day month and year.

I'm having some trouble reading a text file from a remote server into a string. The code is as follows:
if( !($fd = fopen($ftp_url, "r")) ){
$error = true;
$error_msg = "Unable to connect to server.";
}
else {
$file_contents = fread($fd, 100000);
fclose($fd);
}
if( empty($file_contents) ){ $error = true; $error_msg = "Did not read file."; }
The problem is that the fread doesn't always succeed; about about half the time the $file_contents string tests as empty. There is never a problem with the fopen, and there doesn't seem to be any consistancy in the failure... The same file may be loaded into the string on run one, and missing the next. The remote server is NT-based.
Does anybody know what is going wrong here? I don't have to add any logic to "wait" for the fread to complete, do I?
Thanks, mth.

Hello,
I am trying to make am admin page for a few other pages in PHP but I dont know how to save the changes made.
ie. The page has a few checkboxes & select boxes that when changed, change some variables that are then used in other pages.
However I want the changes in the admin page to be permanent, until they are changed again. Not just for that session or user, but if the change is made it stays changed until the administrator decideds to go back in and change it again.
How do you save the changes in that file on the server, by just using a browser?

Any ideas... Thanks
attached mail follows:
Are you trying to create images or just display images? If you're trying to create images using GD, you'll need to check the version of GD you have installed. If you have a newer version or don't have it installed at all, you won't be able to use that functionality. If you're trying to display and image, you should even be calling a function. If you'd like, post you code and let me have a look.

I bet you are using cookies to keep track of them. If so, all open windows in a browser share the same set of cookies. The fix is to move the information that identifies which account they are working in to the URL.

That is because you're usuing cookies, and the cookie is part of the bowsers information. Opening another netscape session isn't really a new netscape, but a new browser using the same session. And, by default, the cookie will die when the browser is close.

After spending a lot of time on this I think I almost have it figured out. I don't think it is a problem with the install.
A found on php.net where when using pdflib 3.03, pdf_new() doesn't work. The fix is at the bottom of http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.pdf.php It says to change pdf_new() to the following:
<? header( "Content-type: application/pdf" );
<? Doesn't work for me, so I put <? in. This hasn't totally fixed my problem as of yet though. I get it to create the pdf, but when I go to open it, I get "File does not begin with PDF"
If anyone knows how to fix this please let me know.

Because otherwise you have one variable name, and it will contain the last value which was assigned to it.
I don't know any languages where you can do:
$value = 'A' $value = 'B' $value = 'C'
print $value
and get a result other than C

Hi,
I am having some problems creating FDF/PDF's on the fly.
I have created a PDF with Abobe Acrobat 4 including forms. I would like to send PDF's via mail filling the fields in the PDF using my mysql database, so that everyone gets their own prefilled PDF.
Does any of you have an example script I may use??
Thanks,
Patrick.
PS I checked phpbuilder.com, but the examples assume that the pdf is opened via the browser.

I have a database of numbers:
TOTAL HITS: 1000 PAGE 1: 500 PAGE 2: 250 PAGE 3: 250
How can I query these numbers and display back a percentage number? For instance with the numbers above:
PAGE 1: 50% PAGE 2: 25% PAGE 3: 25%
Or is their a process by which to store numbers for easily getting this to work?
attached mail follows:
My idea is so easy it can't be right but here goes.
Couldn't you read the total and page count into an array, the divide array values 1-3 by array value 0 and multiply that by 100? In other words:
$row[0] = 1000; $row[1] = 500; $row[2] = 250; $row[3] = 250;
array[1]/array[0] = 0.5 * 100 = 50 array[2]/array[0] = 0.25 * 100 = 25 array[3]/array[0] = .25 * 100 = 25
Like I said it's too simple but I haven't tested it so I'm probably missing something.

Assuming you have a row in your table for each page.

Since I've always found my answers in the archive, this is my first post, so please excuse any blunders...
I'm trying to download info from a table as a tab-delimted text file. This part works fine. (By disabling the UPDATE statement in the code sample below, I can get the same data file sent time after time.)
I need to keep the data in the table for future reference, and only want to download each new record once, so I added a DateTime field that gets updated after downloading. Then searching on that field gives me just the records that haven't been downloaded yet.
The weird part is that it seems like the LAST MySQL command (UPDATE) gets executed before the FIRST one (SELECT), because the SELECT statement comes up with 0 rows.
Here's some selected (modified) parts of the PHP code:
------------------------ First, I perform the SQL: SELECT * from db_table WHERE (DownloadedDateTime = '0000-00-00 00:00:00')
Then, it parses and sends the info: while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($result)) { while (list($key, $val) = each($row)) { $val = ereg_replace("[\n\r\t]"," ",$val); $val = ereg_replace(" {2,}"," ",$val); echo $val . "\t"; } //end of line echo "\r"; }
Then I perform the SQL: UPDATE LOW_PRIORITY db_table SET DownloadedDateTime=CURRENT_TIMESTAMP WHERE (DownloadedDateTime = '0000-00-00 00:00:00') --------------------------
Any ideas why the rows are getting the DownloadedDateTime field updated before they get SELECTed?

Does anyone know of a way to resize images as they are being uploaded? Would you write these images to a mysql database or straight to a file on the server? The pictures will be small < 100k
Thanks

I have been using the tools from ImageMagick (convert) to create thumb nails of pictures upload to our site. Once you have the uploaded file just: if (exec('convert -w 100x100 ... src_file dest_file')) { error } I hope this helps.

Hi,
Is there any way to take an image from the filesystem, say a .jpg or .png, and display it in a different orientation? e.g. 20 degrees to the right?

In both cases, the answer will have to be some kind of server side utility that can dynamically feed up translated images. Chris' very nice "image from database" snippet gives a guidline on how this might work - whether or not what you want can be done in PHP, I don't know.

Actually, Brian's suggestion won't really solve your problems nor really apply. (No offense intended) In both cases you want to physically manipulate the images. This will require, as Brian mentioned, a utility. You'll want to look into using either ImageMagik or GD. I've never used ImageMagik but I have used GD quite a bit. To enable the PHP GD functions, you'll need to compile PHP with GD support. The more recent versions of GD support mainly JPEG and PNG image formats. GIF is not supported because it is copyrighted. If you need GIF support, you might be able to find an older version. You'll need one that's about a year old. (I believe that's when they stop supporting it.)
In regards to the second question, you wouldn't even have to store the image in a database if you just want to manipulate it. You can just manipulate in on the filesystem.
Hope that answers your questions,
Jason

Hello All,
Is there a way to turn ZEND_DEBUG on or off without recompiling?
Thanks.

I seem to be stuck on a very simple (to me) issue. I am trying to build a database of links for a site. A user inputs an HTML link into a text box which is stored in a SQL db. This works fine. I need to display this data on pages, and retrieving it into the page displays fine as well. The problem arises when I need to provide a means to edit this link. Here's what I've got:
Link as stored in db: <a href="http://winners-circle.com">Winners Circle Design Group</a> variants I've tried to store: <a href=\"http://winners-circle.com\">Winners Circle Design Group</a> <a href=\\\"http://winners-circle.com\\\">Winners Circle Design Group</a> <a href='http://winners-circle.com'>Winners Circle Design Group</a>
All result in the textarea box in the form being populated with (basicly all the output to the end of the page): Winners Circle Design Group</a>"></form></td>\n </tr> <tr> <th width = "40%" align = "right">Created:</th> <td width = "60%">20010221195310</td> </tr> <tr> <th width = "40%" align = "right">Last Modified:</th> <td width = "60%">20010219104604</td> </tr> </table> </div> </body> </html>
I'm sure that the answer is right in front of me, but my heads bleeding to badly from hitting the wall so many times, I can't see it!
