Hi,

I've been advised that compiling php static is "faster" than the module version. Can anyone tell me what the realworld performance difference is? If it's not significant, the extra compile time hardly seems worth it.

TIA!

I've also done the same thing. Approximately 400 invoices a day all from a backend administration website. However, we forked out a license to use the PDF library.

> imagine if the address in the invoiced didn't matched the envelope's transparent > area... (don't think a word document can handle 6000 invoices anyway)

Yes, well true. But, the point was there is the facility to use a COM object instead of some multi-server or java kludge. If you can find a COM object to do the task (Matt: you talked about using Access for your needs) then that'll probably be the easiest/fasted solution on Win32 (short of paying for PDF).

On a side note, is there some Adobe license which prevents people writing Free for use PDF libraries? Or is it just by chance that the 2 that exist require you to purchase a license?

Hi Frederik

Run this code. It does what you want it to. In your original code you compared two strings in the IF-statement. When the $resolution gotten from your JavaScript returned '800' it would have a lexical higher value than '1024' and thereby do exacely what you wanted it to - actually the code would always return \1024\ since your screen resolution would never return a string with a lexical lower value than '1024'.

By multiplying the string '1024' by 1 you get the integervalue 1024 (that's a trick PHP offers ;) ) which you then compare to the integervalue 1024.

That's the trick....

$resolution = "<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=\"JavaScript\">document.write(screen.width)</SCRIPT>"; echo "--".$resolution."--"; if (($resolution*1) >= 1024) { $resolution = "1024"; } else { $resolution = "800"; } echo "**".$resolution."**";

I don't think this code do what he want... You are trying to mix client-side code with server-side code, but you can't do in that way. The ONLY way to obtain client screen resolution into a PHP variable is send data from client to server.

At a guess becasue your mixing and matching languages.

If you got the input from a hidden field in a form (perhaps an entry page?) then it would be possible to get the data you want.

attached mail follows:

all this is happening on the server. on the server $resolution is just a string so "if ($resolution >= '1024')" compares the two strings (using ascii values) and finds that "<"(60) is greater than "1"(49). If you want the server to know the screen width of the client you'll need to dig into the header info sent with the request, or you may need to get javascript to send it back to you, I'm not too sure about this.

Well, Yes... you have to stick to JavaScript + JavaScript and not JavaScript + PHP! You can let PHP talk w/ JavaScript and not the reverse!

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" type="text"> if (screen.width >= 1024) { var resolution = "1024"; } else { var resolution = "800"; } document.write(resolution); </SCRIPT>

This discussion reflects a surprisingly common misunderstanding of client v. server side scripting. PHP, all processing takes place on the server. Javascript, all processing takes place on the client. I've seen this misconception with ASP v. VBscript/javascript too.

Strange.... you would think this would be the most basic of fundamentals.

attached mail follows:

You aren't getting the value to the PHP script... allow me to walk through what is actually happening

$resolution = "<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=\"JavaScript\">document.write(screen.width)</SCRIPT>"; echo "--".$resolution."--";

You have just set a variable to "<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=\"JavaScript\">document.write(screen.width)</SCRIPT>" and then echoed that string. so it looks like you have

--1024-- or whatever your resolution is. if you view source though you see you really have

--<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=\"JavaScript\">document.write(screen.width)</SCRIPT>--

and the client browser is just interpreting that JavaScript statement

if (($resolution*1) >= 1024) { $resolution = "1024"; } else { $resolution = "800"; } echo "**".$resolution."**";

The reason this isn't acting the way you expect is because you AREN'T saying if ((1024*1) >= 1024 { You are actually saying if ((<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=\"JavaScript\">document.write(screen.width)</SCRIPT>*1) >= 1024) {

You are not actually passing anything from JavaScript to PHP... you are just tricking yourself =)

Hello,

I'm quite new to this list so i guess you've had this subject hundereds of times before(?).

Anyway - I'm looking for articles/information about PHPlib, FastTemplate and their clones.

I'm also looking for information about how to do big/complex sites. OOP in php, filestructures etc. Right now I don't even know what a file containing classes should be named, i've seen such files with .php, .inc, .obj and .object as extension.

Thanks!

I didn't get this from reading the manual, but I struggled with this problem for days and finally gave up. I posted to some other forums when this one was done and found no answers.

Now, I know it isn't just me and I know what the problem is, but I still don't know a solution.

I am creating an image on the fly and I have no problem if I am just using a background color and adding text to it or if I use ImageCreateFromPNG, but if I use ImageCreateFromJPEG and try to add text on top of that or even a rectangle or anything on top, it seems to ignore the color that I specify and always came out grey. (Of course now if I use ImageColorClosest(), some colors work because they are in my image.)

It doesn't matter what I output it as, only what I read it in as.

And if I read it in as a png, the image quality is horrible which I also don't understand. It seems to have drastically reduced the number of colors used.

My phphinfo says GD version 1.6.2 or higher I'm using PHP Version 4.0.1pl2

Oops. I didn't read far enough. I found the following in a separate thread.

So now my question is, how do I copy one image into another?

I see ImageCopy(), but it mentions copying a part of the image, so do I have to use GetImageSize to determine the size of the src image first?

I don't know a way around the problem you're describing with your version of PHP, but PHP 4.0.6 with GD 2.0.1 allows you to call ImageCreateTrueColor(), which eliminates the 256-color limitation with JPEG files-- solved my problem right away.

has this problem

check the annoted manual on php.net. i believe there is a work arround posted on imagecolorallocate() and i reposted the same thing under imagecreatefromjpeg. basically you create and image, allocate colors, and then copy your jpeg on it.

Hello,

I have a requirement to add elements to an associate array dynamically based on some conditions. I initialize the array with the 1st associate array element $MyArray = array('DATETIME' => $DateTime);

How do I add more elements to this associate array. I am using PHP 3 and array_merge and other functions for arrays are not supported in PHP3. I am trying the following: $MyArray[] = array("BUYVAL" => "1.23"); but if I try and get the value of $MyArray[BUYVAL], I get nothing.

I am sure this must be simple, but I do not seem to be getting it right!!

What you have done here is that you have added an array to your array, but you wished to have the value added to your array. The $MyArray[] pushes a new value to the array, in this case another array. You want $MyArray['BUYVAL'] = 1.23.

This should do what you want; just stick it at the end of the code you already had in this email.

for ($i = 0; $i < $info['count']; $i++) { print $info[$i]['mail'][0] . '<br>'; }

That's assuming there is always only one value for "mail" in a given entry.

Hi Brad,

Took another go at it:

This works for me:

$sql= "SELECT * FROM login_table where Pass = password('$password')"; $testResult = mysql_query($sql) or die ("ouch"); $b = mysql_num_rows($testResult); echo $b;

for sure. I password(ed) the INSERT and it shows the encrypted version in the table, then i created another form and this works! I get the num_rows...

btw, check you caps again, both your code had different spellings: Login_Table and login_table....

I was doing something similar just yesterday. Ended up with a little function to automatically write hidden <input>s for every variable that's submitted, whether posted or thru the url. Goes like this...

// put this somewhere in your form <?php print get_param_inputs(); ?>

// the function itself function get_param_inputs() { global $HTTP_GET_VARS, $HTTP_POST_VARS; $ret_str = ""; $params = array_merge($HTTP_GET_VARS, $HTTP_POST_VARS); foreach ($params as $k=>$v) { if (is_array($v)) { foreach($v as $kk=>$vv) { $ret_str .= '<input type="hidden" name="'."$k[$kk]".' value="'.$vv.'">'; } } else { $ret_str .= '<input type="hidden" name="'.$k.'" value="'.$v.'">'; } } return $ret_str; }

I also needed to append the variables to links on the same page (for page 1, page 2, page 3... type thing) so did this:

Won't work if you're nesting arrays within arrays, but I'm not a recursive type. Hope it helps,

Matt

Yeah, I had thought about using hidden inputs, but hidden inputs are not really hidden. They still exist on the HTML page, and although not visible in the browser, are visible in the code. This may not be cool if you have sensitive information that is passed, also if you have a lot of variables to pass, thats just a lot of hidden inputs to pass. Is there no other way to accomplish this? No built in function? I guess it makes sense that there is not, b/c the form submits the form and only the form variables. Thanks. -Tim

If I understand what you are saying: those variables don't exist until you SUBMIT the form. You can demonstrate this by looping through and displaying your POST or GET vars at the beginning of the form and see what happens when you first open the page, and when it calls itself.

And re-reading, I think what you may want is hidden fields. You want part one to call part 2, and retain values from part 1, etc? Echo the values into hidden fields in each step of the process.

There are a thousand ways to pass data... some are just more kludgy than others =)

In addition to using hidden fields You could put the data into a Database You could Write it to a file You could put it in a cookie You could use sessions etc, etc, ad nauseam

Two things to point out, however.

The first is that using Hidden fields is not really frowned down upon (at least not by anyone I know) and will probably lead to the least convoluted code.

The second is that anything passed in a form (unless you are using SSL or something) is already insecure. If you have truly sensitive information you need to be looking into encryption, if not then why sweat the hidden fields?

We've built a framework that gets around this, without using HIDDEN form fields. It's quite complex so I'll give a high level description, it should give you some ideas. Our framework works on the basis that every page consists of a single form that submits to itself (same URL). All page/form elements are constructed from a library of class objects written in PHP. These elements may, or may not, have a value. By default we make all of these values session variables, so we are gauranteed that the values will be there on the next page submission. We prefix these session variables with a unique prefix. If a page goes to another URL then our framework recognises that the URL has changed and deletes all of the previous pages session variables by identifying them with the defined prefix.

All of this is hidden away from the programmer, the behaviour is encapsulated in our frameworks base classes. When a page loads it begins by constructing the page element objects, during construction the base classes check for the existance for a session variable value. If it exists then that particular form object is assigned that value. The application code can set values for form objects, but it does this through accessor functions, which in turn ensure that the new value is propogated to the session variable. If a value is POSTed to the page then the framework grabs the value and assigns it to the form object via the accessor function (hence it's now a session variable once again).

We took it a little step further and added similar caching of data objects, so on a page reload the same result sets are used from the last time around (if desired) rather than having to make another round trip to the database.

The programmer only has to pick the relevant form objects that they are interested in and position them on the page using a layout table object. The framework takes responsibilty for maintaining state and the coder just has write the app. logic.

This is a very high level description, the solution is not trivial and threw up a number of issues that we've successfully solved. For example, we implemented meaningful name-mangling of form objects to prevent the creation of multiple form objects with the same name. We have implemented an event driven mechanism so that 'onclick' routines are called for those objects that caused a form submission (be that a button, link or listbox selection). If you want to let a user go to another screen then you stick a redirect in the 'onclick' event for that object. Of course, this means that nothing can be displayed before hand, so our framework ensures that nothing is sent to the screen until all application code has run. All screen objects can have javascript associated with themselves, this code is all output together in the correct part of the HTML generation. There are a bunch of other features that we have. This OO approach has saved us a great deal of time.

It works surprisingly well and means that we spend 90% of our time debugging application code rather than debugging niggling issues with PHP/HTML.

And re-reading, I think what you may want is hidden fields. You want part one to call part 2, and retain values from part 1, etc? Echo the values into hidden fields in each step of the process.

Your call, but I think you'd be better off using these functions to parse the original file and generate the modified version.

Hi,

A simple problem for you guys (I think),

I have 2 arrays - firstname and lastname, both have the same associative index - lastname, I have then performed asort on both to order them alphabetically. Now I just need to extract and display the array elements that have the associative index beginning with A or B or whatever is defined by $query - thus displaying only names where the lastname begins with A etc.

How do I do this?

Thanks for any help you can offer.

Hey guys,

I saw a post in here the other day that's prompted me to ask this question... Because I can't seem to get the solution mentioned to work. Maybe I'm missing something obvious... Anyway, here goes.

I have a list of categories contained in one table, and a list of entries in another. So

categories: id name 1 category1 2 category2 3 category3

At the moment, the entries table has a field which contains a field mentioning the category by id, so:

entries id cat_id name 1 1 name1 2 1 name2 3 1 name3

The problem is this: I'd like to give some entries more than one category. I attempted to put the category id's into an array. So a row in the revised entries table now looks like this:

entries id cat_id name 1 2 name1 2 1,3 name2 3 1 name3

And I'm trying to list from that table with code similar to this:

$cat[0] = 1; $cat[1] = 3;

$getcats = implode(",", $cat);

$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM entries WHERE cat_id IN($getcats)") or die (mysql_error());

// Get the results

I get no errors when executing that code, but I don't get any results back, either...... even though I know there are entries in the table with the category id listed as 1,3

Any ideas? I'm having "one of those days" :)

Cheers, James.

I'm not going to comment on array processing techniques, but I suggest you are into a situation where you have to rethink your database design from the point of view of performance and normalization.

I don't know how many records you will eventually have, but the key to performance in SQL databases is the effective use of indexes, and queries which match. Even if you have an index on the cat_id field, a query like SELECT * FROM entries WHERE cat_id IN($getcats) forces the database engine into a sequential read of the cat_id field.

So you can drop the cat_id field from entries and create a new table entry_cat which has two fields id cat_id

Which gives you this query, although I'm a little uncertain about the bracketing of the condition.

select entries.id, entries.name, entry.cat_id from entries, entry_cat where (entry_cat.id = 1 || entry_cat.id = 3)

(And which, on reflection, may not yield better performance.)

All this brings me to the question I should have asked up front. How often will you want to select multiple categories, and will it be done by range (>2 , <=3) or individual items ( 1 and 5 and 7 )?

I don't think I've been terribly helpful - Miles

Thanks for your comments, Miles. To answer your question(s), I'll not be wanting to select multiple categories in anything other than the administration section. The main search form has the categories listed, and the user only has the option to select from one category.

The reason I need to be able to give an entry multiple category listings is this: The Snail and Lettuce is a pub / restaurant. The categories list contains a listing, pub, restaurant. So the user can choose from either pub or restaurant when performing a search, but the entry must be displayed in searches for both pub and restaurant.... Does that makes sense?

Perhaps I'm going about this the wrong way.... Sleep deprivation does funny things to the mind :)

You might have some luck with adding [], I seem to remember that making arrays for form posts, so it might do gets too...

and if you always end up with an array using [], you might change the condition to count($song) > 1 or something for:

A valid VISA card has between 13-16 digits.

The question that drives us (nice quote!) is if we gain any speed to use one another or if it is too little to be measured.

That's going to depend on what you mean by a "library":

If you want to write some functions in PHP and make them available to other scripts, then it's just a matter of placing that file somewhere in your include_path and calling it into your other scripts with include(), require(), auto_prepend_file, etc. You can find some information in the manual on defining functions in PHP at http://php.net/manual/en/functions.php

If you want to actually extend the capabilities of PHP by adding new functions to the language, you'll want to start by reading README.EXT_SKEL in the directory where PHP is installed. That should, I think, give you most of the information you need to get started.

Hello, How do I get the filename or script name if I run it in php comamnd line? For example, if I run this

bash$ php test.php

I want to get something inside test.php that tells me the filename is test.php, but *without* the actual path.

Thanks Reuben D. Budiardja

attached mail follows:

$PHP_SELF returns the filename with the full path. from there, you can use split to split the string wherever a / occurs, then call count, to get the total number of values in the array, decrememnt the count by 1 (Arrays begin at 0) then, set a variable to store just the filename, like so:

$fullpath = split('/',$PHP_SELF); $c = count($fullpath); $c--; $filename = $fullpath[$c];

There may be a better way to do it, but this works for me, and it's only 4 lines. :)

Seems that $PHP_SELF is not defined when it's run from the command line.

Try:

__FILE__

Chris

attached mail follows:

I had that before. OK, seems that my problem is not that simple. The thing is , I have something like this in my file test.php:

require('my_api.inc'); echo "This is test.php3";

Now, in my_api.inc, I want to know that I run test.php3, when I do bash$ php test.php3

and the filename is test.php3 . __FILE__ will give my my_api.inc instead. I need it because my_api.inc do all sort of authenticating, session, etc.

Any solutions? Thanks. Reuben D. Budiardja

__FILE__ will give you the name of the file that uses that constant. So, based on the above, I believe that you are using __FILE__ only in my_api.inc (which is pretty much what you said, I'm just looking for verification).

What you can do instead is this:

in "my_api.inc", have the following code:

echo "Currently Running file is: "; echo ( $CurrentRunningFile ) ? $CurrentRunningFile : __FILE__;

in test.php

<? $CurrentRunningFile = __FILE__;

include( "my_api.inc" ); echo "This is test.php3<br>\n"; ?>

Define "$CurrentRunningFile" on line one of all your files. Or something along those lines...

Well, I thought about that too. The thing is, this is part of the bigger project to make our apps can be run from command line, and we already have tons of apps that currently running from web. Doing that for every single apps would be a pain. But apparently since there is no other way, at least at this point, it will have do for some apps.
