maybe you need to globalize your var on the page where it's posted to?
if (isset($var)) {
echo "var is set";

Well what about this bit:
You have installed PHP, but when try to access a php script file via your browser, you get the error: cgi error: The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers. The headers it did return are:
This error message means that php failed to output anything at all. From the command line hange to the directory containing php.exe. Run php.exe -i If php has any problems running, then a suitable error message will be displayed which will give you a clue as to what needs to be done next. If you get a screen full of html codes (the output of the phpinfo() function) then php is working ok.
Once php is working at the command line, try accessing the php script via the browser again. If it still fails then it could be one of the following:
file permissions on your php script, php.exe, php4ts.dll, php.ini or any php extensions you are trying to load are such that the anonymous internet user ISUR_<machinename> cannot access them.
The script file does not exist (or possibly isn't where you think it is relative to your web root directory). Note that for IIS you can trap this error by ticking the 'check file exists' box when setting up the script mappings in the Internet Services Manager. If a script file does not exist then the server will return a 404 error instead. There is also the additional benefit that IIS will do any authentication required for you based on the NTLanMan permissions on your script file.

Is anyone else having fun and games with IE 5.0 and caching?
I have the no-cache code (below) before anything else in my index file. Following that an include file is pulled in that has a form with a text input field that echos the date and time.
Whenever I refresh the page the time does not update to reflect the current time, it sticks with the time that was displayed when the page was first loaded. Even when I close the browser and reopen it the time remains the same. Any pointers on this issue?
<?php header ("Expires: Mon, 14 Jul 1963 05:00:00 GMT"); // Date in the past header ("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") . " GMT"); // always modified header ("Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate"); // HTTP/1.1 header ("Pragma: no-cache"); ?>

Hmmm, I substituted the date("F jS Y G:m A") function for a time() function and this works fine, on refresh the updated timestamp is visible.
(btw system is apache 1.20 running on Hed Rat 7.1 - php 4.05)
Can anyone explain why the time() function refreshes and returns the correct value but the date("F jS Y G:m A") does not??
Seems the problem might not be an IE5 caching issue at all ??

Subject: Return Adress
Hi !
I ve got a problem with the mail function :
My http server (Apache) is running as user "web" and php is compiled as a=20 module.
When I send a mail with the mail function and, for example, the recipient=20
does not exists, the return message is sent to webmydomain.xxx
I would like the error messages are sent to another email adress.
I tried with the mail header "Return-path: anotheraddressmydomain.xxx" but=
=20
the error messages keep going to webmydomain.xxx
My code is :
$head=3D"From: ".$EMAILADMIN."\nReturn-Path: anotheraddressmydomain.xxx\n";
mail($to,$sub,$msg,$head);
Is there a way to force the error messages to go to another email adress ? Another header ? If it's sendmail that change the return address, is there a way to prevent= =20 this ?
Thanks !

Subject: how 2 read an non-existing file?! (I need help)
the following problem:
I want to read out, if the firstname is a boy's name or a girl's name...
therefore I've written this code: (which allready works)
------------------ <snap> -------------------
$fppen('http://www.vornamenlexikon.de/main/suchen.asp?kriterium=search&B1 =Suchen&action=searchnow&searchby='.$name,"r"); if($fp){ $datenead($fp,100000); fclose($fp); $male='/m.gif'; $female='/w.gif'; if((strpos($daten,$female)>0)&&(strpos($daten,$male)>0)){ if(strpos($daten,$male)>strpos($daten,$female))$result='w'; else $result='m'; }else if(strpos($daten,$female)>0)$result='w'; else if(strpos($daten,$male)>0)$result='m'; } if(empty($result)){
$fppen('http://www.kindername.de/'.strtolower(substr($name,0,1)).'-namen. htm',"r"); if($fp){ $namen ray(); $datenead($fp,100000); fclose($fp);
$daten=strstr($daten,'<font size="4" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><B>VORNAMEN MIT'); for($cnt $daten=substr(strstr($daten,'<tr>'),4); $tag=substr($daten,0,strpos($daten,'</tr>')); if(strpos($tag,'</td>')>0){ $x1=substr(strstr($tag,'<td>'),4); while(strpos($x1,' ')>0)$x1=str_replace(' ',' ',$x1);//TAB while(strpos($x1,' ')>0)$x1=str_replace(' ',' ',$x1);//DBLSPACE $x1=trim($x1); for($istrpos($x1,'<td>')>0;$i++){
$field=strtolower(trim(strip_tags(substr($x1,0,strpos($x1,'</td>'))))); if($i=1)$namen[$cnt] ray($field); else if($i=2)$namen[$cnt]['gender']=trim($field); else if($i=3){ while(strpos($field,',')>0){ array_push($namen[$cnt],substr($field,0,strpos($field,','))); $field=substr(strstr($field,','),1); } array_push($namen[$cnt],$field); }else if($i=4){ if(in_array($name,$namen[$cnt]))$result=$namen[$cnt]['gender']; } $x1=substr(strstr($x1,'<td>'),4); } } } } } ------------------ </snap> -------------------
This code works, but I wanted to include another Datebase (Yahoo)
So I included this function:
------------------ <snap> -------------------
$fp=fopen('http://babynames.pregnancy.yahoo.com/bnfname?n='.$name,"r");
if($fp){
$datenead($fp,10000);
fclose($fp);
$male='boy';
$female='girl';
if((strpos($daten,$female)>0)&&(strpos($daten,$male)>0)){
if(strpos($daten,$male)>strpos($daten,$female))$result='w';
else $result='m';
}else if(strpos($daten,$female)>0)$result='w';
else if(strpos($daten,$male)>0)$result='m';
}
------------------ </snap> -------------------
But this code has no effect. It returns only an Error (404)
The reason therefore is, that the targetting URL does'nt exist:
Try this URL's
http://babynames.pregnancy.yahoo.com/bnfname?n=Patrick or http://babynames.pregnancy.yahoo.com/bnfname.htm?n=Patrick http://babynames.pregnancy.yahoo.com/bnfname.?n=Patrick http://babynames.pregnancy.yahoo.com/bnfnameBLABLA?n=Patrick
In a Browser its not nessesary to type in the correct Name "bnfname". So you can add what ever you want, but the result is the same (it works)
But the problem is, to downloading this file, because then the reason is an 404-Error (not existing)
Does anybody know an answer to this problem???
How can I download this file anyway... and read out the information I want?
Thanks, Tribun (Patrick)
--- www.mp3o.netPS: I know. its not the best english ;)
attached mail follows:
As for snap two, try echoing the filename you're trying to fopen: do: $fn = "http://babynames.pregnancy.yahoo.com/bnfname?n=$name" echo "$fn\n"; $fp = fopen($fn, "r");

Not sure I fully understand you. I'm assuming that you mean that you prefix each member method with a particular string that relates to the class. By doing this you lose a key strength of OOP. Namely the ability to write polymorphic code.
In effect, you would not be able to do the following:
class A { function print() { print("A"); } }
class B { function print() { print("B"); } }
$arrObjects[1]= new A(); $arrObjects[2]= new B();
foreach ($arrObjects as $key->$value) { $value->print(); // This is the polymorphic piece - the object type is decided at run-time }
If you methods were called A_print() and B_print() then you would not be able to build generic code as above.

Hi Guys,
When naming classes and function's within the class(and even functions(probably more so?)) do you use a common string infront of everything? For example HM_function_name()
The reason I am asking is because what if you want to easily intergrate a class/function with lots of other classes/function and then you find out there is two with the same name?
Any thoughts on this would be good!

I think it is a good idea for class names, but not for function names as
he points out below...
So in the example below you'd want:
class PH_A ....
class PH_B ....
Since my initials are PH... and that's probably going to be unique or at
least more unique than just "A" and "B" so it will be easier to
integrate with other classes.

I have tested again what I said yesterday and found that if I have problems in PHP support in Apache then all my information (username and password) are seing simly on the screen, so it's not about dead SQL server but PHP.
However, I went through all docs that I have on this topic and found that the only solution of this is to put included "connect.php/inc" outside of htdocs directory and configure your php.ini such a way that one outsider directory would be accepted and only by php call.
Hope I didn't mess up this time so you are able to understand what I mean... =))
Thank you for the help anyway, just be aware of this PHP prob when you pick up provider.

Hi All,
Also a good advice is to restrict the access to the files where you include your login/pass. Give permissions to only the PHP user, I mean the user that runs the php process (in unix/linux make a ps axu and look at the user column). Then change the file permissions to just that user (unix chown and chmod, more info 'man chmod' and 'man chown'). If you are using W9x/ME you're out of luck.
Hope this helps.

How exactly is the username/password from the mysql_connect() call shown to the browser?
I normally just get a PHP error when the db connection can't be made. No code is shown, just a line number. If, in your case, PHP dumps the source code to the browser window when the db connection won't work, then something has to be wrong. :)

Hi Martin,
Question: who actually OWNS the document? Does it have your logname and group? If you're trying to do a rename from the server, remember that the server generally runs as "apache" or "nobody"... and to coin a phrase, "nobody" owns nothing.
If you're trying to manipulate files in your own home directory (or http_docs or whatever suffices as your servable area), you have just about two choices. Either make the documents you're working with owned by nobody (not really a good idea) or make a virtual web server in Apache that has the appropriate User and Group directives to make that virtual server run "as" you on your behalf. About 5 minutes of httpd.conf configuration and a quick DNS trick.
We've all tripped-up on this one at one time or another. It's not much setup either way, but whatever you do, make sure that YOUR security and the security of your server come before all other considerations.
Best regards, Bill

Hi All
I store files on MYSQL server but when I try to pull them out ( show them on screen or download ) with IE it download them twice before showing them up :(
I played with the headers (adding, removing) with no success. by the way in Netscape its work fine.
here is the last code tried:
<? $query = "select * from files where issue_id='$id'"; $result = mysql_query ($query) or die ("Invalid query");
$data = MYSQL_RESULT($result,0, "file_data");
$type = MYSQL_RESULT($result,0, "file_type");
$file_name = MYSQL_RESULT($result,0, "file_name");
$file_size = MYSQL_RESULT($result,0, "file_size");
// # To force save file //header("Content-disposition: attachment; filename=\"$file_name\"");
Header("Content-type: $type"); header("Content-Length: $file_size"); header("Content-Disposition: inline; filename=$file_name");
echo $data; ?>

You don't.
httpd.conf is the place to look. It says something about what Apache has to do with .php and .php3 .. so.. add .html

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html (this line should be there already, so don't add it, update it!). (substitute x-httpd-php with x-httpd-php3 for php3)
Further you might want to modify your DirectoryIndex statement to include index.php (and/or index.php3).
This is more related to php-install than php-general though, keep in mind for the future...

Now /login* URLs execute the PHP script "/login", which gets the complete URI as $REQUEST_URI

Hi again,
As a new PHP convert, I ran into this same problem (below) yesterday while designing a form. ASP programmers (if they're THINKING) will use subs to keep "if" blocks tidy. In ASP, I'd use something like:
If Request.ServerVariables( "REQUEST_METHOD" ) = "GET" Then DisplayForm Else SendFormData End If
which at first I replaced with: if ( getenv( "REQUEST_METHOD" ) == "GET" ) { display_form(); } else { send_email(); } ...making functions out of what used to be subroutines. All well-and-good, except my global variables disappeared and nothing I could do (even declaring the few important ones explicitly global) seemed to allow me to get at the variable contents.
I wound up compromising by sending just the bits I needed in the function INTO the function like so:
$MyURI = $SCRIPT_NAME; $TheFormVars = $HTTP_POST_VARS; if ( getenv( "REQUEST_METHOD" ) == "GET" ) { display_form( $MyURI ); } else { send_email( $TheFormVars, $ThisWebServerFQDN ); }
Seems a bit tacky at first, but it works (properly!) and that's all that counts. I can do much more with PHP functions just as they are than I ever could with ASP; moreover, I have much more secure control of what gets exposed where. To me, a beautiful compromise since at no point is there ever an actual email address exposed to the outside world. My "Support Topic" selection box contains arbitrary codes that allow me to generate the appropriate email address on the fly.
Hope my experience will be helpful to other noobies making the Big Transition.
Best regards, Bill

Bill,
You need to declare the variables global within each function that access them or access the variable via the $GLOBALS array.
$var = 'something';
function go() { return $GLOBALS["var"]; }
or
function go() { global $var;
return $var; }
echo go();

That means your server does a HHTP request to http://host.server.com/functions.php , get's back the *output* of functions.php and includes that (assuming host.server.com uses PHP).

I know this would probably be better placed on the mySQL mailing list, but alas I do not subscribe to it and am hesitant to do so to ask one question. Enough PHP users use mySQL that perhaps the answer could be found here.
In searching through a text field in a mySQL database, I would like to search for a keyword and return that record as a resultset, obvious no? However, I do not want the search to return true if the search word or phrase falls within an HTML tag contained within the text. The field in question will contain some basic HTML tags but I don't want them searched, just the freeform text.
What would be the best approach? I'm not all that well versed in regular expressions, well let's face it, I probably couldn't put a regular expression together if my life depended on it, and any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Have been trying to open a socket with PHP on Windows98 and get a call to undefined function error for the socket function. Does the Win32 version of PHP come with socket support.
BTW: Using PHP 4.10
Thanks in advance.

attached mail follows:
If you get the "call to undefined function" error, I'd say that it doesn't have the socket functions built in. I'm not positive, that'd be my guess though.

Bjorn and Julio, you've got it right.
I've now a contract with Volvo Aero Services for web design and multivalue database support. Ever since Volvo bought AGES, it's been a huge technological step backwards from Linux and PHP to M$ and ASP. The big companies DON'T CARE that M$ puts out a security-hole-ridden, barely documented, admin-intensive product. And of course, management don't care--they don't have to deal with the day-to-day grind of trying to keep Win and its attendant components up and going.
In my own business I've seen how the use of open-source, solid, proudly-written-and-supported software takes great amounts of time away from administrative busy-work and gives it back in the form of more time to develop new products and sales. It's a very simple equation, actually. As a super-small businessman, anything (like Apache and PHP) that puts time and money back on MY side of the tally-board is a Good Thing.
I call the sort of problem we're discussing the "In-Flight Syndrome." You know, where a Big Corporate Executive goes on a junket somewhere and sees a glossy ad in a glossy in-flight magazine and arrives back at the home office to insist that current baby-and-bathwater be thrown out in favour of something glossy but wholly inappropriate. Or, "If I haven't seen in in a glossy magazine, it isn't what the Joneses are doing, therefore neither will we."
In VAS's situation, it's SAP. Now, mind you, SAP has no component that even remotely deals with the way aircraft parts brokerages actually do business. There's no module for FAA repairs, no way to deal with special consignment deals, and worst, no way to deal with the all-important documentation. In this business, "no documentation" equals "no sale."
Would YOU get on an aircraft if you suspected that undocumented parts were on it? I think not and I wouldn't get on it either. Airlines simply won't buy from brokers who cannot prove the authenticity and condition of life-limited parts.
But that hasn't stopped Volvo in the least. Obviously, corporate Powers That Be in Sweden are conveniently immune to such things as the law (Thou shalt document well all thy parts back to birth). The corporate philosophy is "If it runs on Windows, then it's Good Thing and We Must Use It," however inappropriate.
Face it: most large businesses have more dollars than sense. This sort of problem isn't limited to PHP, Apache, or Open Source products in general. Plain, honest horse-sense is what's missing. I see it happening at VAS and I see it happening it a lot of other large companies.
If the people in charge of IT took a good look at what's available and appropriate, there would be a lot more money made and a lot more happy technicians. "Happy technician" will also probably be loyal and productive. My prediction is that those of us who embrace Open Source and place such products in our businesses to limit downtime and administrative burdens will be the most profitable in the upcoming years.
Conversely, those like Volvo Aero, who insist on throwing good money after bad, will likely be out of business soon. The Cult of Microsoft is still strong in upper management, simply because they don't know (and are unwilling to countenance) any better.
That's what I call a self-correcting problem :-)
Respectfully to all, Bill

Hi All,
Just one point Java is actually open source, because you can get the source code for the JVM. It is not GPL what means that if you want to make money with it you have to pay for it (but after all Sun is a bussiness, and bussiness are for making money).
One question how many programmers, technicians, support companies there aree for Microsoft Products? and now how many of them there are for PHP, open source, GPL? and I mean BIG companies. Beleive it or not certification is important. People fear to get stuck with something that anybody knows how to use.
Maybe not all the time they choose it for this same reason.

Access to source code has very little to do with being "Open Source". Access to source code is 1 out of 9 requirements for something to be open source. Please see http://www.opensource.org/docs/definition.html

Just a plug for my favorite country.. :)
There are tons of jobs in Germany for PHP developers.. some of the largest CMS providers who sell systems for 20K-200K EUR deploy PHP and they often have a growing need for more developers.
Germany is generally quite open towards PHP and related technologies; the first dedicated PHP conference was held in Germany last year; second, the Government is actually pushing the development of open-source technologies and actively participates in certain events and open-source conferences; third, Germany has now a full-blown registered association which will actively work on the promotion of PHP.

well, I think it depends on if you're talking about java the language, java the jvm, or java the bytecode compiler. which of these do you need to be open source. I know of at least one open source jvm (kaffe), and I believe IBM may have released an open source compiler

In my experience Scandinavia (well nordic really, can't forget finland) and germany (and a few other european countries...notably not england) are much more open to open source (no pun intended) to open source and the like.. their concerns are sensible ones. Something in the mentality. northern america/UK etc are much more short-sighted in their perspective.

look in httpd.conf to get the user name, then chown the directory to that user
ex.
chown apache:apache ./dir/ chmod 755 ./dir/
and make sure that you change permissions to all files that you write into the directory to be read-write only (not executable), chown 644 filename
and that you put newly uploaded files into a directory *outside* the document root of your webserver (so some random person cannot just upload any random file to your server and have immediate access to it)

Subject: Re: Sorting Dates in this format: Jul 21 2001
Hey Chris
If the text field only contains dates, I'd suggest converting it to a DATE type the use DATE_FORMAT in your SELECT statement to return the format needed. This also lets MySQL sort it for you, ie:
SELECT DATE_FORMAT(date, '%b %e %Y') FROM your_table ORDER DESC BY date
Right off hand I don't think there's a simple way to sort it in PHP. If you want to keep it as a text field then you'll probable have to parce the dates and sort it accordingly, ie:
foreach ($dates as $date) $parced_dates[] = split(' ', $date);
// Your own sort functions sort_by_years($parced_dates); sort_by_months($parced_dates); sort_by_days($parced_dates);
I hope this helps

Hi,
I use a few forms on my websites, one of them is to log in onto the site.
These sites all work well in MSIE and Netscape 3 and 4.7 BUT in Netscap 6 (6.0, 6.01 and 6.1) there is a strange effect: The result page starts loading but the loading is broken before the end of the page. The php scrips are completed (results are in the database, emails are send out etc.) and the page is generated but simply doesn't tranfer completely.
For one form, the transfer always breaks at the same point, which is a fferent point for different forms. I cannot look into the transmitted source because netscape does a reload on "view source" which is not performed for dynamic pages....
Anyone seen this before? Does anyone have a qlue where to look for? (It looks to me like a header problem, but I have no idea what kind of header problem..)
Thanks in advance!

Works fine, no problems at all!
Are you sure function.php is included at all? Because if the only problem would be $bar, the output would at least be:
someval from page.php from foo
Like I said... I don't have any problems with it. The output is:
someval from page.php someval from foo
(and all this without any errors or warnings!)
Pretty much what you'd expected...

hmm...yes, it does work, I jumped the gun on the simple example, cuz I thought it was an echo problem.. my un-simplified example has an opendir() in function foo() file.
function.php is: <?php function foo{ global $bar; echo "$bar from foo"; //this is working $handle=opendir("$bar/common/"); // I get a "OpenDir - no such file or directory" //some more stuff here to handle directory maniuplaion } foo(); ?>
so the simple example does indeed work, but the opendir() is choking trying to deal with the variable.
hmmm...

Are you sure the directory you try to open actualy exists?
Btw... for things like this you better use:
if (!($handle = opendir ("$bar/common/"))) { // Some error here, and don't try to use $handle after this! }

yes, I'm sure the directory exists :)
here is the actual code, I suppose this would have been more helpful to start:
<?php function incl_common() { global $modroot; //modroot is defined as http://localhost/modules in a settings file
echo "<br>$modroot from included"; //this echos "http://localhost/modules" properly
//the below throws the error, OpenDir: No such file or directory (error 2) in (this function file name) //but I can replce the $modroot/common with a hard-coded path and it works fine.
$handle=opendir("$modroot/common"); while ($file = readdir($handle)) { //load files in $directory into array if ($file != ".." && $file != ".") { $files_to_include[count($files_to_include)] = $file; } }
//clean up and sort closedir($handle); if (is_array($files_to_include)) { while (list ($key, $val) = each ($files_to_include)) { include "$modroot/common/$val"; } } } incl_common(); ?>

Oops..(Hit send prematurely.)
$currentmonth = date("m"); $currentday = date("d"); $year = date("Y"); $newmonth = $currentmonth + 3; if ($newmonth > 12){ $newmonth = $newmonth % 12; $year = $currentyear + 1; } $3months = date("Y-m-d",mktime(0,0,0,$newmonth,$currentday,$year));
This should get me exactly 3 months later and also checks for if its a later month (oct, nov, or dec) then it goes to the next year. How could I check to see if the new date doesn't fall on Feb. 30th or whatever? If someone signs up on the 31st of a month it'll never end on a month with 31 days.
Thanks, Pat

Nothing to worry about... PHP does it for you. You can try it you know... Just use:
$currentmonth = 2; /* feb */ $currentday = 31; $year = 2001; /* eg */
The output will then be:
2001-03-03
Ain't that most excellent?!?!
I should tell you though... that:
$3months = date("Y-m-d",mktime(0,0,0,$newmonth,$currentday,$year));
doesn't work. Obv. you haven't tried it. It produces an error (and no date). Your variable name cannot begin with a number.
===== PHP Manual ===== A valid variable name starts with a letter or underscore, followed by any number of letters, numbers, or underscores. As a regular expression, it would be expressed thus: '[a-zA-Z_\x7f-\xff][a-zA-Z0-9_\x7f-\xff]*' ===== =====
So I'd say: $threeMonths.

Hello,
I'm running RedHat 7.1 and have installed PHP 4 from the RedHat installation disk. It is a normal RPM file for the PHP install (prebuilt). PHP does not seem to work. Looking at the INSTALL file as if I were to build PHP from scratch it mentions some shared libraries that are not to be found. Any Ideas?
Thanks for any help Scott

Define "does not seem to work". In the meantime check out your httpd.conf if your using Apache, may need to uncomment something is all.

Hey, Scott:
I'm running RH7.1 myself. PHP sort-of "came out the box" when I installed the default server installation, as an Apache module. All's I had to do was make a PHP page (a timid "echo 'hello';"), throw it in the right directory, and *poof* it served.
Astonished me, too.
Seems as if when you install Apache from RH7.1, you get PHP as a module. Someone please correct me if this is a misunderstanding. But if you look, the httpd.conf for RH7.1 has "index.php" as one of its default index documents.
Best regards, Bill

Thank you, you alredy helped me a lot,

I know CVS exists, and, I know there are some projects out there to make use of CVS/RCS using a web front end (I helped write one). I am however curious if anyone knows of any projects out there to create an ISO 900x angled document control systems out there?
Most of the commercial software packages seem fairly lame and ridiculously expensive.
The alternative of course is to build one myself, but, I figured I would avoid reinventing the wheel if at all possible.
Just curious, Seth

Hi folks,
I have a site on my laptop, works fine.
When I tar it up and move to my ISP for a production environment, certain things stop working.
The two environments are pretty much the same, except my laptop is php_mod and the ISP is a cgi.
Basic pages still work fine, but I'm using URL parsing to get variables and build pages on the fly. When I try to call one of these pages, e.g.
http://hostname/page.php/foo/bar
I get an "Internal Server Error" (bla bla bla internal error or misconfurguration bla bla bla)
Any idea how to troubleshoot what is going on here?
