    Maybe try setting headers like "Expires" or "Cache-Control"?

    --------------------[snip]--------------------

    I'm not sure if any values get passed to PHP at all... Netscape is very
    cache-inclined, so it is likely that you're seeing the cached output of
    your previous query.

    There are several methods to overcome this situation:
    (1) HTTP cache headers (see RFC2616, ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc2616.txt):
        Cache-Control: no-cache (HTTP/1.1)
        Pragma: no-cache (HTTP/1.0)
    (2) Expires headers
        Expires: Sat, 1 Jan 2000 00:00 +0000

    Or use the <META HTTP-EQUIV> fields. Note as a side effect that using the
    "Expires" header will keep a lot of search engines from indexing the result
    page.

    Another method is using a random value as SEARCH parameter, e.g.
        http://www.myhost.com/myapp.php?rv=0987412&...other parameters
    Your application must ensure that the random value is as random as
    possible. This makes the URL "unique" and will bypass any ill-behaved cache
    (it won't help if the user hits the back button, of course...)

    Look at the MySQL manual, function FROM_UNIXTIME()

    Not tested, but try this as an example:

    <?php

    function showArray($name, $value) { if (is_array($value)) { if (strlen($name)) $name .= " --- "; while (list($key, $data) = each ($value)) $result .= showArray($name . $key, $data); } else $result = "$name --- $value\n"; return $result; }

    $a = array("name" => "dallas", "address" => array("city" => "austin", "state" => "Texas"), "something" => array("something else" => array("blah1", "some_value1", "blah2", "some_value2"))); print(showArray(null, $a); ?>

    this should recursively go into multi-dimensional arrays and construct an output similar to your requirements.

    Anyone experience any problems working with Oracle when PHP has Oracle compiled in --with-oracle=/oracle/home/dir?

    I am occassionally having the webserver hang when I try to execute a php script that I'm testing to access an Oracle database - this was causing <defunct> Oracle processes so I re-compiled with --enable-sigchild, and now I don't see any defunct processes, but the whole webserver still hangs, and now I get a seg fault.

    Is this a recognized problem/bug, and is there a solution? Would compiling --with-oci8 solve this?

    TIA.

    Maybe by posting a lookup to an online dictionary, and parsing out the returned definition for the plural wordform...?

    Does anyone know of a company which is offering or planning to offer PHP developer certifications? Arguments against certification programs aside[1], there are a lot of companies which prefer certified developers, even to the point of assuming a project done in ASP will be better than the same thing done in PHP simply because the ASP developers are Microsoft certified.

    While this seems like an interesting sideline for a company like Zend, I'm also somewhat curious about whether an "Open Source" test could be developed. It'd certainly have to be quite different from normal tests and that move away from easily memorized answers would probably be a very good thing.

    [1] We've all heard them before. I'm personally in favor only of certifications like certain devilishly hard Cisco exams which measure more than multiple-choice memory.

    Hello,

    If you'll take a look at Brainbench.com you'll see a PHP4 cert exam there. As brainbench plan to become a paid service, their certifications may start worth something sometime.

    My 2 cents anyway...

    The brainbench exam is terrible. It's heavy on knowing the details of mssql functions and oci functions, and no points are given for speed. It's like an open book test so anybody can spend all day looking up the right answer, fill it out, and get a perfect score. If you just want to get the thing over with you can be honest and dump all the answers you don't know.

    Anyway, I think that as a benchmark it's garbage. A good test should stay away from most modules, and also include speed as a factor. Also It's way too easy to cheat on a test like this, so I don't think they should be taken too seriously no matter what.

    I can see requiring a person to pass a test like this before they get a job interview, but a company using the scores as a basis for hiring someone would be silly.

    actually, it IS a timed test, so you cannot simply "spend all day looking up the right answer."

    BTW, if you do want to take the test, today is the last day that the exam is offered for free ... tomorrow they start charging $20 or so for each exam....

    The brainbench exam is terrible. It's heavy on knowing the details of mssql functions and oci functions, and no points are given for speed. It's like an open book test so anybody can spend all day looking up the right answer, fill it out, and get a perfect score. If you just want to get the thing over with you can be honest and dump all the answers you don't know.

    Anyway, I think that as a benchmark it's garbage. A good test should stay away from most modules, and also include speed as a factor. Also It's way too easy to cheat on a test like this, so I don't think they should be taken too seriously no matter what.

    I can see requiring a person to pass a test like this before they get a job interview, but a company using the scores as a basis for hiring someone would be silly.

    Heh, maybe not all day, but I took it twice to see if speed was getting counted in the score. The first time I sped thru it, and the second time I let sit there for what seemed like enough time to consult the manual or a book for each question and probably even write a sample program to check the output (whatever it would take to double check that I had the right answer).

    It scored me the same both times, and for this reason I decided that it was not a very good system. Besides, at this point somebody's probably posted the answers on the internet somewhere, making this thing completely useless.

    I know of two ways to pass data from PHP to JavaScript.

    1. Do an "echo" in the JS function definition:

    function myJavascriptFunction() { var foo = <?php echo $somePhpVariable ?>; }

    2. Assign the PHP variable to a HIDDEN <FORM> element, then access this from JS:

    <INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="somePhpVariable" VALUE=1>

    function myJavascriptFunction () { document.forms[0].somePhpVariable.value += 1; }

    Good luck!

    Hi. i've concatenated a string from a while statement on a SQL query. example: "$mars","$venus","$jupiter". let's say i call this $planets. there are actual variables from a posted form with those names. say, $mars=1, $venus=2, $jupiter=3. however, when i echo "$planets" i get the string "$mars,"$venus"... rather than what I want: "1," "2", "3". but if echo $mars i get "1." i'm trying to create a dynamic sql insert statement because the page sending it doesn't know what/how many varialbes it's sending. if i hard code it, it works. this has been puzzling me for days! see, the 'planets' are all displayed on the form from the while statement to database table1. i.e. while (...results) $name=row[(planets)]....the other variables in the form are defined. say, $number. the statement/string reads them okay. i.e. if string/statement was ("\"$number\",\"$mars\",\"venus\") it will echo as ("54","$mars","$venus.....). have i made my problem clear? because it's sure confusing me!

    It's not documented yet at

    http://www.php.net/manual/en/configuration.php

    , but you can use the following in your php.ini file:

    disable_functions = ; This directive allows you to disable certain ; functions for security reasons. It receives ; a comma separated list of function names. ; This directive is *NOT* affected by whether ; Safe Mode is turned on or off.

    I presume you could use the

    php_value disable_functions phpinfo

    syntax in your httpd.conf or .htaccess (you might need to use php_admin_value instead of php_value). This is available in php 4.0.4; I don't know about availability in earlier versions. I don't use this, though, so I'm just copying from the provided .ini file.

    I'm using Omnihttpd Pro personal web server running on Windows ME, and with PHP 4 bundled with the server. When I try to enable dlls by uncommenting lines in php.ini (e.g. ;extension=php_gd.dll) the browser becomes unable to load pages from the server, takes a long time trying and then gives up with a blank page showing. I've left the extension directory at the default of "extension_dir = ./ " with the dlls directly under the php directory. I've a copy of php.ini in both the php directory and under windows, though its the latter thats being read.

    Any suggestions please - I really want to use the gd extension!! (Note I get the same problem if I uncomment any other dll lines in php.ini)

    The figures I'm giving you are from one of the two biggest portals in Israel. it's less than 3%.

    anyone with any other browser can go and get IE :)

    Hey!

    Thank you for the quick reply.

    I do have some questions regarding your answer.

    From what I know and have seen so far, there are more than just 3% Internet users in Israel which use Netscape 4.x (I use it myself...). Are you sure that I should just ignore these people, and just use logical Hebrew?

    Also, quite a lot of people started using Opera lately.. (ain't speaking about Israeli users). Does Opera supports Logical Hebrew? If so, from which version?

    Hello Boaz,

    How are you doing these days? :-)

    Mind me for jumping in, but I think Aviv question about the truth of the 3% figure ie very pertinent.

    The way I see it it is a gross mistake to assume that the audience of a large portal is necessary a reflex of the potential audience of that portal.

    I also work for a large portal company (not for the Hebrew audience though) and I found people making the same large mistake. They looked at the sites audience and figure that there is over 90% of Internet Explorer users in a site that used IE specific DHTML. Needless to say that it didn't show right in Netscape.

    Given that sites do not show right in certain browsers, it looks obvious that almost nobody using those browsers would show in the browser audience rates.

    I even wonder why there are still 3% of users of browsers that do not support logical Hebrew display that go to your portal. Same for the 10% of Netscape users that go to that other site in my company portal. Maybe those are just lurkers that went there and gave up on the site and did not return because they could not see right what was in there.

    The reality is that it turns out that there is still about 30% os Netscape users, meaning that if you force a certain type of display that they don't see right, you loose their audience.

    Just my .02 EUR. :-)

    Is there any way to compile a .php file instead of using the source code to distribute?

    Problem is, I may have to release an application written in PHP out to companies who do not wish to use this application across the Internet and would like to use it on their local intranet. I do not wish to have to deal with the non-disclosers, agreements, etc which comes with releasing source code.

    Thanks in advance.

    Use the zend optimizer, www.zend.com . Of course it requires the people who use the script to have the optimizer as well, but at least they can't see the source.

    You may want to try this forms generation class that lets you define a warning message that shows when the user attempts to submit a form more than once.

    If you are lucky and are feeding this form data to a database, you can create a unique hash field from other fields that would not change from click 1 to click 2. Then just make the database treat the hash as a unique index and it should prevent double entries. Works for me.

    Other advice is to not tell the double clicker that had an error; Just silently ignore their second request.

    You need to retrieve the message headers with the function RetrieveMessage and then look in the $headers array (strtok(strtolower($headers[$line]),":")) for a reply-to or from headers and then use the address specified in that header.

    I have a simple page that offers three items(7700,7701,7702). I am trying to figure the best way to calculate the price for each shirt depending on the amount they want. The breakdown of prices is: Any 3 shirts for $50 7700 - 3 for $33 or $14.99 7701 & 7702 - 3 for $50 or $25.

    So I sort through the 7700's and set the price for multiples of three which is 11, then sort through the 7701 and 7702 and set the price for multiples of three which is 16.66.

    Now I run into a problem with the remaining shirts and figuring out how they should be priced. If there are four shirts left and they are 2-7700, 1- 7701, and 1- 7702, I need a way to make sure that the 7701 and 7702 are included with 1 of the 7700, and the other 7700 is priced at 14.99.

    The items are stored in mysql and referenced by the product code(7700). Hopefully I explained this weel enough. Maybe some ofyou have an idea. If you want to see what this is for go to http://www.jnewman.com/oxfords. Play all you want, it does nothing but add the prices. If you add 1 buttondown and 2 of the other shirts you will see that the total is 70 something instead of 50 something.

    I've been given a project that I want to use PHP with, but unfortunately there are unchangable hard-coded values that point clients to an ASP script residing on our server. Here's what I want to do, and I don't really know how to do it:

    I want to pass all the key/value pairs that are passed to the ASP script to a PHP script. I can get values with Request.Form("key_name"), but that takes hard-coding the name of the key.

    So if the following is passed to the ASP script: one ue&two=red&three=yellow

    Then I would want to redirect to myscript.php?one ue&two=red&three=yellow

    How do I go about walking through all the key/values that have been passed in ASP? I really don't want to have to learn this ugly language..

    Well, if it's a query string it's easy...

    In the ASP page you do:

    <% Response.Redirect("myscript.php?" & Request.ServerVariables("QUERY_STRING")) %>

    If it's posted form data do this:

    <% Dim Querystring Querystring = "" For each Item in Request.Form if Querystring = "" Then Querystring = Item & "=" & Server.UrlEncode(Request.Form(Item)) Else Querystring = Querystring & "&" & Item & "=" & Server.UrlEncode(Request.Form(Item)) ' the above line isn't supposed to wrap End If Next Response.Redirect("myscript.php?" & Querystring) %>

    Now, I want to let the end user can browse the record in a database table. Someone may want the record, through my php script interface, how can I log the record, which the user is editing and going to save it.

    Or at least how can other instance process know that the record is using by some other . So that the script can warn the user not to edit the record.

    I know you've addressed this already, but I'm still learning a lot of things and didn't get much from the previous posts. :) I am using a hosting service, not my own server. So before I complain that they installed the jpeg module incorrectly I need someone to make sure it is not my code.

    This code with Png works fine: <?php header("Content-type: image/png"); if (($im = ImageCreateFromPng("test.png")) == "") { echo "error opening file"; exit; } $red = ImageColorAllocate($im, 255, 0, 0); ImageString($im, 3, 20, 10, "Hi", $red); ImagePng($im); ?>

    However, if I change it to Jpeg it gives me a broken image icon. I get no other errors. <?php header("Content-type: image/jpeg"); if (($im = ImageCreateFromJpeg("test.jpeg")) == "") { echo "error opening file"; exit; } $red = ImageColorAllocate($im, 255, 0, 0); ImageString($im, 3, 20, 10, "Hi", $red); ImageJpeg($im); ?>

    phpinfo() tell me this: './configure' '--with-gd=/opt/local/src/gd-1.8.4' '--with-config-file-path=/usr/local/lib' '--with-ttf=/opt/local/src/freetype-1.3.1' '--with-jpeg-dir=/opt/local/src/jpeg-6b' '--libdir=/usr/local/lib/'

    Is it me or the server? And what do I tell them to do to fix it?

    Hi all,

    I am trying to get the expected behavior of: require("filename.gz"); or require("filename.bz2"); to work properly.

    Beyond using gzopen, gzread, and gzwrite to do it using a temp file, is there any other way to include a compressed file with PHP code? I thought of using gzread and passing that to eval but it isn't pure PHP and uses <? and ?> respectively.

    I have decided to try and find another template system and rewrite the entire site. Can people who use such systems let me know thier findings, the template system must:

    Be a php class Totally separate html from php code Be able to handle *dynamic* blocks of code (ala FastTemplate) Not be phplib (sorry I have tried and dont like the autoprepend) Be easy to use Be Fast

    This is the last example script i made with two domains which accept only the range IP Address for each :

    <?php

    $host = getenv("REMOTE_ADDR"); $ip = range(0,255); if ($host != "194.195.196.($ip)) if ($host != "195.196.197.($ip)) { header("Location: htt://www.internet.com/"); } ?>

    you may check if an address is within a certain network/subnet, you need to compare each octet.

    For example: Address 192.168.11.212 Network 192.168.12.255 Mask 255.255.255.0 192 & 255 = 192 192 & 255 = 192 OK 168 & 255 = 168 168 & 255 = 168 OK 11 & 255 = 11 12 & 255 = 12 NOT WITHIN SUBNET

    I've put this together in this littel test form:

    --------------------[snip]-------------------- <?php

    function contains_ip($network, $snmask, $address) { if (!is_array($network)) $network = explode(".", $network); if (!is_array($snmask)) $snmask = explode(".", $snmask); if (!is_array($address)) $address = explode(".", $address);

    for ($i=0; $i<4; ++$i) { $a = $address[$i]*1; $m = $snmask[$i]*1; $n = $network[$i]*1; $m1 = $a & $m; $m2 = $n & $m; if (($a & $m) != ($n & $m)) return false; } return true; }

    if ($network && $subnet && $address) $result = contains_ip($network, $subnet, $address);

    ?>

    <html> <body> <?php if (isset($result)):?> <h4><?=$address?> is<?php if(!$result):?> <i>not</i><?php endif;?> contained in <?=$network?>, mask <?=$subnet?></h4> <?php endif;?> <form> Enter Address: <input type="text" name="address" value="<?=$address?>"><br> Enter Network: <input type="text" name="network" value="<?=$network?>"><br> Enter Subnetmask: <input type="text" name="subnet" value="<?=$subnet?>"><br> <input type="submit"> </form> </body> </html> --------------------[snip]--------------------

    Hi, Mod_auth_mysql uses a persistant connection to mysql. Will php use the same connection for any given apache child or does that then mean to mysqlds for each child, one used with mod_auth_mysql and one when php does requests ? Hope I'm making myself clear.

    Hi

    Setup is RH7 on intel running php4.01pl1 as a cgi binary.

    virtual server apache conf file includes

    Action php-script /cgi-bin/php AddHandler php-script .php

    when php script is called, the following error occurs:

    Parse error: parse error in /www/hosted/(Server name)/cgi-bin/php on line 598

    However, on another virtual host on the same physical server, with an identical .conf file (except for file paths of course), php works fine.

    There is a copy of the php binary in each cgi-bin.

    I know that this has been reported before in the list, but a search did not bring up an answer. Can anyone help?

    I would like to know how to add form array values to a mail message.

    I have my form defined as follows:

    select form name set as:

    <select name="Destination[]" size="3" multiple> <option value="Not sure">Not sure</option> <option value="Acapulco">Acapulco</option> <option value="Alabama">Alabama</option> <option value="Arizona">Arizona</option> <option value="Bahamas">Bahamas</option> <option value="Baja">Baja</option> </select>

    I am not sure how to pull the values from the Destination array

    Here is some code that does not work: (this script is adding the form info to a mail message)

    $msg .= "Destination:\n"; $i = 0;

    if ($Destination[$i] !="") {

    do { $msg .= "\t$Destination[$i]\n";

    $i == $i + 1; }

    while ($Destination[$i] !="");

    }

    I receive an out of memory message -- must be adding the same value over and over...or something

    Hi Claudia,

    Something like :

    $msg = 'Destination :'; foreach ($Destination as $place) {

    $msg .= "\n\t $place"; }

    I'm evaluating PHPNuke at the moment. It certainly seems to have the goods on customisation.

    Besides which, you can always edit and fiddle :)

    I have created a program using PHP3 and MYSQL. I want to use cron job to automatic update the document become active after all the related document become active.

    Can you please give me some idea how to start? I really don't have any idea. Please teach me.

    Thanks Wendy

    attached mail follows:


    Wen, I'm not clear on what you're looking for. You want to schedule something in cron to run a script that does what? Cron is a unix scheduling tool, via which you can trigger shell scripts to occur at specific intervals/points in time.

    Sounds like what you may want is a script that acts only after some other actions are complete. You could do that by building a script that checks periodically (presuming there is some trigger to check for) and effects only when found.

    For instance, you can build a unix shell script like this:

    #! /bin/tcsh /usr/local/bin/mysql -t -uUSERNAME -pPASSWORD DATABASE <<QUERY_INPUT select CRITERIA from TABLE; QUERY_INPUT

    then execute it via cron, piping the output to a file. Making it do what you want depends on what you want to do, and may require appropriate knowledge of cron, mysql and php. Start with "man cron", www.php.net and www.mysql.com.
