Not exactly sure what you mean elias.
TIMESTAMP in MySQL is a datatype more than a function, but I'm not
absolutely sure about that.

no.

still, nope.

> anything like what i'm asking for?

ahhh- if you are looking for a way to automatically have a timestamp
inserted into a record, make a new field of type timestamp that is not null.
if you don't insert any value into the timestamp field it will use the
current date-time.

have a great day

This is all explained in the PHP manual under dates. Assuming you have a field called 'date' with a timestamp in it, you can format the date like this:

$date = date("l jS F Y", $date);

But there are a lot of options so read the manual.

I believe there is some misunderstandings...

I believe Zeus just doesn't know how to insert current date in his database: ie: INSERT INTO MyTable(other_field, date_field) VALUES('adasd', NOW()) this will insert in your date field the current datetime.

You may use a hidden field wich tells you what current step is. If it is lower that your current page expects to be, you may take the proper action (here the most simple, die() ) Look at this simple script:

==============SCRIPT BEGINS HERE <?

if ( isset( $step ) ) if ( $step == 2 ) // =>here you can put "<=2" , as you need.. die ( "Error, we've been already here!" ) ;

.... <FORM> <INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME="step" VALUE=1> .. </FORM> .... ===============SCRIPT ENDS HERE

We are working on compiling a list of these - anyone with information, please email me as well, and we'll include you.

On to the topic at hand - what will impress your boss?

Size of the site in pages? pageviews? number of servers? concurrent users? dollars the site cost to product? how many people it takes to run it?

NUMBERS -------------- We migrated a site from NT/ASP to Linux/PHP. It used to require 5-6 machines -

we *could* run it on one now, but keep 3 balanced for redundancy. (same exact hardware). People impressed with how large your server farm is would be disappointed in our PHP solution. We handle up to a few hundred simultaenous users at any one time, often doing a number with a lot of zeros after it in a single day of commerce (can't give exact figures here).

Our local store - affordablecomputers.com, is pushing about 7 million page views/month (all dynamic PHP stuff) from one machine.

neopets.com is pushing 40+ million page views per day in PHP.

OTHER NAMES ---------------- IPOFinancial.com is a client of ours - not necessarily a huge site, but it's extremely important to his business, and it runs on Linux/PHP.

Also in the financial realm, my.zacks.com appears to run PHP. Zacks is a pretty big name.

livebid.amazon.com was running PHP at one point. I think it still is.

aspsourcecode.com runs PHP. :)

Those are just a few of what I know. As I wrote before, we're putting together

a collection of this type of info for future reference. Anyone with more info,

please contact me. Thanks. :)

Does anyone know what Yahoo uses? It's obviously some form of scripting... especially at http://my.yahoo.com. I've always been curious about what they are using as their parser... it appears to spit out pure HTML, so it acts like PHP...

No offense here, but EVERYTHING does that. ASP, JSP, CF, Perl, Frontier, etc. I think it's pretty impossible to tell what someone's using unless they announce

via file extensions or something, and even then you can't always tell.

Yahoo uses a lot of Python. Yahoo Mail pages have extensions of .py, indicating Python. Yahoo acquired eGroups and Google this past year, both of which openly use Python to generate pages. They most likely use Python in conjunction with other scripting and compiled languages.

What is this Listing thing supposed to do? The character is used to swallow errors/warnings from a function call. The way you are using it is completely invalid.

It is documented here:

No, not really.

>anyway I am setting my environment with putenv(oracle_home=/something) and >putenv(oracle_sid=database)...what can I do? any ideas?

I'm assuming that this isn't working for you. Make sure you set NLS_LANG etc, as well in your environment, as specified in the PHP documentation.

Do you have an Oracle client installed on the machine that has PHP installed on it? Did you compile PHP with oci8 support?

Here, our web server (Linux) has Apache/PHP and Oracle Net8 client installed. The Net8 client talks to our Sun box with Oracle 8i installed. Works with PHP with no hitches.

I am receiving a Netscape security error (version 4.7) when attempting to submit my form without a complete email address.

Here is the link:

http://www.contus.com/test/golf/page.php3?site=contusgolf&page=golf%20tours& ad=golf

At this page choose the any hyper link named "Contact us for more Information"

A quote form will come up. My calling script is set up to check the name and email field or name and phone fields to ensure they are not blank.

Here is the code to check the form fields:

if (isset($miniquote_submit)) { if ( ($sender_name != "") && ( ( ($Contact != "Contact by Phone") && ($email != "") ) || ( ($Contact == "Contact by Phone") && ($Phone != "") ) ) )

If I enter an incomplete or blank email address I receive the NS security issue. The code should be checking the Contact field -- and if it is set to phone should ignore the blank email field. Also since my error checking code is simplistic, it really should allow any value in the email field and it should process -- however if I simply enter "cc" I receive the same security error.

I have been looking at this issue for a couple days now. It works OK for me on IE-- and also on a different server. The server that I am having the problems with has php 4.0B2 installed.

I would appreciate any insight!

I cant seem to get phpMyAdmin to put my backup dbase onto the new server.

I always get some stupid error because of the html which is stored in the dbase.

Does someone know of a cgi script that would do it successfully, or maybe a telnet command that will dump it?

And if you give me lots of money I'll be happy to make up a pricing scheme for your new business plan, and maybe do some security consulting too.

If you are adding mod_ssl then you aren't really patching anything you are just adding a feature, and just installing patches is not even the start of having a secure service. I suspect your partner at least has some security experience or I expect it will not be long before your site, and your client's sites are 0wn3d.

I didn't mean adding ssl is a patch. I know how to apply patches to source code and make other updates.

There is also the client-side META tag redirect, which has been deprecated by W3C (although it is hard to imagine the browser makers not supporting this for quite a while longer):

echo("<HTML><HEAD><META HTTP-EQUIV=\"refresh\" CONTENT=\"$delay;url=$url\">< /HEAD><BODY BGCOLOR=#ffffff>$message</BODY></HTML>");

As for the address bar contents not changing, I don't know what to say. I haven't seen your problem. Are you actually referring to the Title Bar instead of the address bar? The contents of the <TITLE> tag need to be different for each page for the title bar to change.

in my experience, using a full url: header("Location: http://www.mysite.com/mypage.html");

will do what you want while just using a path: header("Location: /mypage.html");

will not.

attached mail follows:

I might have misread this comment, but I found the opposite.

In one instance, I had: header("Location: $path/newpage.php"); and in another instance: header("Location: newpage.php");

The latter (without the path) did update the address bar properly. Of course, there might have been a problem with the way I was parsing the $path too.. :/

One other thing for posterity's sake:

I had a difficult time discovering why one of the properties in an object I was storing via a session was being clobbered. I discovered that it was because I was assuming that nothing after the header() call mattered. What I didn't realize was that even though the header was set up to redirect to a new page, the rest of the code in the page was still executing! I put an exit() statement after the header() call to prevent this.

I'm talking about using the full url (http://...), this will update the address bar every time (in my experience)

>The latter (without the path) did update the address bar properly.

I would stay away from doing it that way, it looks like it could be confusing for some browsers.

attached mail follows:

I have a php script that browses a database table. You can page through the database table by clicking these links:

http://localhost/browse.php?action=first http://localhost/browse.php?action=prev http://localhost/browse.php?action=next http://localhost/browse.php?action=last

When you click the 'action=next' link, the script displays the next X records (the script remembers its position within the table).

The script also displays a link to a jpeg of the item described in the database table. For example:

http://localhost/images/123456.jpg

If the user clicks the image link, the browser displays the jpeg.

Suppose the user clicks the 'action=next' link, and then clicks an image link. The browser displays the jpeg. When the user clicks the back button, the browser executes the previous link (ie. the 'action=next' link) which displays the next page of database records.

I want the browser to NOT display the next page of data. I want the browser to stay on the page that contains the link to the jpeg the user clicked.

How can I prevent the previous link from being executed when the user clicks the back button?

I've used it for database inserts or calls to external programs that took a long time, but did not affect the output sent to the browser. In those cases I used register_shutdown_function() inside a control structure to call another function (after outputting HTML from within the same control structure).

Not a fancy example, but...

I use it in a script which loops through a database of urls to validate them. With each loop, set_time_limit gets reset for a length of time more than sufficient for processing a valid url. If an iteration takes too long, the script will timeout and die without an error message. Since in this case timeout == bad url, register_shutdown_function() allows me to send a final query back to the database marking the current url as invalid. Otherwise, when I start the script up again it would always have that same url sitting at the top of the processing list where it would just timeout over and over again (which is what it used to do--what a PITA).

You could also use register_shutdown_function() to, for instance, email yourself information about why a script terminated and what state it was left in. Output to the *browser is disallowed, but output to other destinations (logs, email, filesystem, databases, etc.) still works. You can take advantage of that.

Hello All,

I'm trying to build a way to transfer my orders to a HTML page instead of using GUI that I've designed.

In order to do that I need to display all the orders of the day and have checkboxes on each so that the user can select only the orders that we will process.

The number of checkboxes on this form will depend on the number of orders of that day. So the form and the number of its variables will be dynamic as well.

Each checkbox has to have the name property that can be matched to the customercode+ordernumber. After the form is submited I need to scan all the variables that were checked so that it can be included on the next query.

Has anyone tried that or did that before? Is there any URL or PHP code that can be used to learn that?

Thank you very much,

Carlos Fernando.

What you need to do is to have a function in the form processing page that iterates through $HTTP_POST_VARS and saves the name and value of each item in the form. You will want to exclude your submit button and if there are other form items you don't want to save, you might want to name them with a unique name (such as prepending "nosave") so you can exclude them as well.

The function I wrote to do this is as follows:

function SetAllAnswers() { global $HTTP_POST_VARS; foreach($HTTP_POST_VARS as $qID=>$value) { if ($qID != 'submit' && !stristr($qID,'nosave')) $this->SetAnswer($qID, $value); } }

OK, a user visits my site and progresses through the following 3 pages, none which have forms on them, using sessions.

PageA (http://URL-XYZ/) SessionID=ID123 -> Cookie PageID=PageA -> Cookie PageB (http://URL-XYZ/) SessionID=ID123 -> Cookie PageID=PageB -> Cookie PageC (http://URL-XYZ/) SessionID=ID123 -> Cookie PageID=PageC -> Cookie

If the user now uses the right click on the back button, skips from 'PageC' to back to 'PageA', what does the cookie contain?

I'm hoping that it contains: SessionID=ID123 -> Cookie PageID=PageA -> Cookie

because there's a separate cookie in memory for each instance of history on the browser, and not, SessionID=ID123 -> Cookie PageID=PageC -> Cookie

so that when the user now connects to 'PageB' again, the script knows that the user is coming from 'PageA', not assuming 'PageC'.

Any help on this use of cookies would be much appreciated.

It's obviously much easier with a hidden variable labeled with the page name.

Whether the save dialog is displayed is determined by the registry settings for the user's browser. You cannot control that by what you send.

Hi,

I've been trying to use SystemV Semaphores as a kind of locking system in a webpage, but after a few hours I get this message:

Warning: semget() failed for key 0x0: No space left on device in /1/home/xxxx/admin/htdocs/prop/lock.php on line 8

Warning: 0 is not a SysV semaphore index in /1/home/xxxx/admin/htdocs/prop/lock.php on line 19

Couldn't grab lock!

It isn't disk space, and there's plenty of free memory. So how do I fix it and stop it doing it in the future?

Apart from this it seems to work fine. I've attached some sample code which is pretty much exactly what I'm doing.

Cheers

Hi,

if i upload via http the tempfile is written with uid 0 (root). After that i cant do anything with the file because the php user is not allowed to. Why is my uploaded file owned by root, and how do i solve that?

PS. phpinfo shows that the apache user is nobody

thx, b0ld

Are you sure it is uid 0? Unless your Apache is running as root it should be getting uploaded as the web server uid id. Use the move_uploaded_file() function to move the file into place.

Calling the method parent::insert() from a class the ancestor of which truly has a method insert() itself, I get the error

"Fatal error: No parent class available in this context in bla.php on line ...".

I know this isn't very much information, but the whole project is big and would take time to be explained. So my question is: In what particular "context" do errors like this occur? I KNOW that my respective class HAS a parent, it's declared like "class blabla extends bla". and bla HAS the method I call. What's wrong?

Hello list!

Does anybody know some sources to read about the COM-Functions in PHP? We wan't to develop some tools to generate INCOMES out of a web application?

Only found some lines on phpbuilder, but that's not really enough to get started!

Thanx
