Once again, a reminder of the smartest way to code php:
1) think for 2 seconds
2) check out php.net for documentation on functions
3) use a function (or 2) already written instead of spending time
yourself...

That's a lot of code!

Use date() and mktime() and PHP will do all of this for you in one line.

See my previous post on the subject. I sent *tested* code that will fit
on
a single line and will do exactly what the above is doing.

Hi everybody! Please, have somebody any experience with displaying icons (type files *.ico) in web pages?

When I have a pure html file that contain <img src="abduction.ico">, all is OK - the icon is shown. But when I create a html page with assistance PHP, the icon isn't shown.

Please, could you help me?? Thank you!

Best Regards, PETER.

attached mail follows:

how are you trying to use PHP to output the html?

AFAIK, there shouldn't be any difference between:

HTML document: <IMG SRC="abduction.ico"> PHP document: print "<IMG SRC='abduction.ico'>";

You should note however that within the PHP print statement, you should to refrain from the use of quotation marks... if you must quote something, use a single quote, as I did in my example.

"This is the best PHP list"

attached mail follows:

Just thought I'd send in my testimonial. I run a web site for a relatively small business (4 employees including the President ;). Anyway, I had been using JSP and Servlets to manage our smallish web site, but in preparation for graduation and moving on to another job, we need a web site that can be managed by my boss and coworkers who know nothing of Java.

Thus, I endeavored to find a solution that would be more stable (the servlet engine was unstable from time to time, though it is highly reputed as stable). Anyway, I chose PHP over everything else because of it's resemblance to Perl and my boss' familiarity with Perl. Within hours I was able to port the entire site from JSP to PHP with all the previous functionality. (It took me much longer to design the original site in JSP.) Within hours I was able to add even more functionality to make it easier for them to maintain.

This is not meant in any way to detract from JSP, just that PHP happens to make JSP look rather inept in this particular case--especially since PHP had built-in a lot of stuff that I had to build myself in Java code. PHP does for web programming what Perl does for script programming. It makes what should be easy, easy and yet still manages to make the hard stuff easier or, at least, no harder.

Excellent product. My appreciation goes to the authors and anyone else who had a hand in this product. I have met few IT products that actually stand up to my expectations after I have put hours and days of effort into them--this one has done just that.

Thanks, Sterling

People!

Someone can tell me if PHP 4 closes their connections to the DB automatically at the end of the script? Or I need to use the mssql_close function each time my work is done?

Best Regards!

From: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-connect.php The link to the server will be closed as soon as the execution of the script ends, unless it's closed earlier by explicitly calling {HYPERLINK "function.mysql-close.php"}mysql_close().

From: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-pconnect.php Second, the connection to the SQL server will not be closed when the execution of the script ends. Instead, the link will remain open for future use ({HYPERLINK "function.mysql-close.php"}mysql_close() will not close links established by mysql_pconnect()).

So... if you use mysql_connect(), your connections are automatically closed at script completion with or without mysql_close(). If you use mysql_pconnect(), your connections stay open whether you use mysql_close() or not.

Your MySQL server will close unused connections after they have been unused for a set period of time. Connections that are left open will be re-used if a request is made, so it's not like leaving a process hanging out in space.

Leaving the connection open reduces the processing overhead that is necessary to open and destroy a connection on every request, so it is generally considered worth the extra memory required to keep connections open that are not being used, but probably will be used shortly.

Only the person/people familiar with your server and/or web site can determine which is best: close connections at the cost of overhead for each connection or leave them open at the cost of requiring extra operating memory and system resources.

Decisions, decisions...

I get a parse error every time and I've modified the scripts a bunch of times already.

// Make new directory function $default_dir = ("D:\www\Proj\$textfield2\"); if(file_exists($default_dir)) rmdir($default_dir); mkdir($default_dir, 0777);

// Copy template.html to new directory $filename = D:Automator\auto_2\Template.html; copy($filename, ($default_dir) .overview.html);

Can I not have these two scripts run together? The mkdir function alone works. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thank you.

Hi!

when you use the "\" character in a string you have to escape it by putting "\\" instead of one!

> $default_dir = ("D:\www\Proj\$textfield2\"); would become: $default_dir = "D:\\www\\Proj\\$textfield2\\";

do the same for the $filename variable.

I have this code:

$size = filesize("$file"); $fh = fopen("$file", "r"); $name = basename($file); header("Content-Type: application/octet-stream"); header("Content-Length: $size"); header("Content-Disposition:$attachment filename=$name"); header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary"); fpassthru($fh);

How can I set title of window ? It works only if I set it (with echo"<TITLE>") before fpassthru, but then if file is image or text, it displays unformatted data

In this example you won't see the comment in the start of the page unless the user processes the form.

hi,

just a few questions ;-)

will there be a libxslt-extension available in the near future? I heard it will be featured in v.4.1? Or are there any alternatives to sablotron?

Hello!

I am trying to make an online booking script for a client (restaurant), and I am using MySQL to store the booking information The restaurant have openings hour from 11:00 -> 01:00, but do only take reservation between 11:00->22:30. The client wants to get a report written out over each hour like this:

11:00 2 Customers 11:15 32 Customers 11:30 12 Customers .... .... 22:30 14 Customers

In the MySQL table I have set up the time field as 'time' with 00:00:00 as default.

Everything is ok, but I am stuck on how to make this report. The customer have set an interval of 15 mnutes between possible time to book, so I have to make an 'SELECT'-query based on when the restaurant opens to the time of the last possible booking time. But how do I make the timeset (11:00:00 and up to 22:30:00)

My far out example: interval = 15; while (time<=endtime){ time=starttime DBCONNECTION Select * from booking wher tine_field='time' time = time+interval }

Do anyone have any tips on how I can solve this

David

attached mail follows:

select count(*) from test1 where MINUTE(tm1) >= 15 and MINUTE(tm1) <= 30 and HOUR(tm1)=12

this query will return you on column containing how many record found in that time range, same as how many customers where surfed at that time where 30-15=interval and 12 is the hour you're checking in!

After the "hello world," I would have him print it 10 times. First let him hardcode 10 echoes, then show him how a for loop works. Since the concept is almost the same, once he understands the for loop, have him do it on his own with a while loop.

To expand on that, you might have each iteration of the loop print in different formatting, e.g. <p>, <h3>, <font color=xxxxxx>.

Then have him build an array of strings, and use a for loop to create an (un)ordered list from the array <ul/ol>. Then have him build a 2D array and create a table from it.

The next step might be to have him create an HTML form that accepts a number from a user in a text box. The user enters a number, and submitting calls a PHP script that prints "hello world" as many times as the input specified.

Just some suggestions, hope they help, Matt

not sure if you've gotten any help on this yet. perhaps test the CRYPT_SALT_LENGTH and CRYPT_MD5 constants to make sure that your system and compiled php support md5 via crypt(). also, what salts did you try? note the comments at the bottom of http://php.net/manual/en/function.crypt.php about double-quoting $1$ and how it may be interpreted and how to escape the $ characters. also, i'm not sure if you need a $ character at the end of the salt string like in some of the examples on those comments or not. unfortunately, i don't have a system with php running right now to test.

you may also want to investigate http://php.net/manual/en/ref.mhash.php depending on what kind of functionality you need. my guess is that crypt() would be suitable for you if it worked properly.

Well, I'm assuming, perhaps incorrectly that the perl modules I used derived its md5 capabilities from the system. I did see all the comments on the crypt() page and basically copied each one. When passing a md5 looking salt, crypt() doesn't seem to do anything special with it and my salt remains the same, first two character are taken like regular des.

How would I go about testing the CRYPT_SALT_LENGTH and CRYPT_MD5 constants.

try: <php echo(CRYPT_SALT_LENGTH); ?> <php echo(CRYPT_MD5); ?>

or: <php echo constant("CRYPT_SALT_LENGTH"); ?> <php echo constant("CRYPT_MD5"); ?>

you should get output of 12 and 1 (not 2 and 0) if md5 is supported in crypt(), i think.

you compiled php on the system it's running on? if you used a binary rpm or something, and the system it was compiled on didn't support md5, then it won't work.

This I built from source. Hmm, if it uses system crpyt() then would using mcrypt libs help with this?

I'll try the above.

i'm not sure. i don't see any related configure flags or php.ini settings. it seems to work with standard redhat 7.1 linux (i'm assuming you're using some redhat-ish system, as i know you):

[tcljobo tcl]$ cat nog.php #!/usr/bin/php <?php echo(constant('CRYPT_SALT_LENGTH')); ?> <?php echo("\n"); ?> <?php echo(constant('CRYPT_MD5')); ?> <?php echo("\n"); ?> <?php echo(crypt('teststr', 'testsalt')); ?> <?php echo("\n"); ?> <?php echo(crypt('teststr', '$1$testsalt$')); ?> <?php echo("\n"); ?> [tcljobo tcl]$ ./nog.php X-Powered-By: PHP/4.0.4pl1 Content-type: text/html

2 1 te4c1aD5wKOnM $1$testsalt$W00xFyq3oO6fDqto9qMY00 [tcljobo tcl]$

any suggestions from the rest of the list?

you could try using the mhash library stuff instead. blah.

This is confusing. I'm actually using rh6.2 on this particular install. Older glibc have something to do with crypt() implimentations?

Hi,

Can anyone tell me please what is the equivelant of this statement from perl, in PHP?

What about registering some session variables? Sessions use cookies and/or URLs to propagate info across multiple pages. Not really secure, though, but they are easy to use.

Investigate using <input type="hidden"> form tages - very useful for passing around additional args between pages/forms.

This function that matt sent to automatically write hidden inputs is awesome. it works great. I am only using the first function. It's a great solution. thanks

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

Hello all,

I'm having a heck of a time with a file uploader page. When I set method=post on the file uploader form, the PHP session is somehow corrupted during the upload, and any links made in the in the resulting page (photoupload.php) don't pass along the session even though they have the exact same PHPSESSID value.

================================================== //upload request page <FORM name="uploader" method="POST" ACTION="photoupload.php" onSubmit="return checkform();" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data"> <input type="hidden" name="PHPSESSID" value="<? echo $PHPSESSID; ?>"> . . . [snip] </form>

==================================================

The session and variables seem fine _IN_ photoupload.php, but when I try to link to another page from the photoupload.php page, it is broken.

But when I right-click on the links, copy the link shortcut complete with PHPSESSID, e.g. (http://foo.bar.com/asdfsad.php?PHPSESSID=!#$!#$!#$!#$!#$!#$)

and then I take and paste that into the location: field in a newly opened web browser, the session works and I can continue to use it. But when I try to click on the link inside of the photoupload.php, the session dies and doesn't show any of the PHP session variables even though I've checked and they exist and have values in the session files on the hard drive on the server.

One more weird anomaly, is that when I change the method=post to method=get in the html upload request page, I don't have these problems with the session. (I just have problems with the file upload because it requires method=post).

Anyone have an idea to whats going on here?

Thanks

Dan

Hi all (he says with a sheepish grin:),

To all of those who tried to help with this thread, I thank you from the bottom of my heart....

Unfortunatly , the problem was not one of syntax, but rather one of gross stupidity on my behalf. The Field where I had been keeping the (encrypted) passwords was set to 6 spaces, thus chopping off at least 1/2 of the encrypted password. So when it was looking for "password('a')" (which is 60671c896665c3fa BTW), it was only seeing 60671c in the field.....therefor NO MATCH. What a stupid mistake, delaying me for 1 1/2 days. At least I know I'm not as crazey as I thought i was going. I guess the lesson here is to step back once in a while and try looking 'around the edges' of a wall. Its amazing what you may find :).

Once again, thanks to all those kind souls who gave up there own time to try to help this ol' fool.

Cheers, Brad

Hi, Just a quick question for anyone that uses GD-Lib prior to the latest true-colo(u)r version (specifically v. 1.6.1) - if I try to load a jpeg that has more than 256 colours in it, will it succeed? I know the obvious answer is to try it and see...but I don't have it here on my machine, and I don't want to retrofit it just to test this one thing out!

Yes, it will work but it will dither it down to 256 colours.

I am trying to create a page that will get a remote file and email it to me. All works fine using several different methods (include,file,fread) only relative links for images and links get my server address instead of the actual address the images should be retrieved from.

Is there a way I can get the remote file and make all relative links for images and such point where they should?

Thanks, bubba

I've been working on Hans Anderson's Browser class and I've adapted it to do what you're looking for. It's not complete but there should be a lot here for you to go on. Again, I haven't had time to fine tune things at all so it's a very rough hack right now. Hope it helps.

The dirty on how to use it:

<?php

require_once ('class_browser.php');

// new browser $browser = new Browser();

$file_array = $browser->get_url(array( "url"=>"$file", "req_mthd"=>'GET', "protocol"=>'HTTP/1.1', "robot_rules"=>FALSE ) );

if ($file_array["errcode"] == 1) { $file_text = $file_array["content"];

// convert relative links to absolute $file_text = $browser->translate($file_text, $file);

class_browser.php:

class Browser {

/* Class Browser by Hans Anderson. This code is released under the GPL license. Modifications by Aral Balkan

06.22.01 - Added two new methods:

(1) $string = translate_links($string, $url);

Translates all relative links in argument $string to absolute links using the full URL to the page being accessed in the $url argument. Returns the translated string.

(2) $string = translate_images($string, $url);

Translates all relative image links in argument $string to absolute links using the full URL to the page being accessed in the $url argument. Returns the translated string.
