PHP is represented at every important technical conference right alongside
Perl and Python. When you hear someone talk about scripting languages,
they will usually say Perl, Python and PHP. I don't see any problem with
the current state of PHP "marketing" in the technical community.
PHP is not marketed the way Java and .NET is. There are no multi-billion
dollar corporations behind PHP and asking us, and apparently me
personally, to make that happen is unrealistic. Like Linux 5 years ago,
PHP is adopted by the techies and somewhat shunned by the suits because
they haven't read about it in their latest advertisement-sponsored
magazine.
We can't possibly hope to compete with Sun and Microsoft when it comes to
suit-oriented marketing drivel. What we can do is concentrate on what we
do best. Writing a solid and very focused tool. Building the grassroot
community and being visible at all relevant technical conferences. If we
continue to do this, I see no reason for any dropoff in PHP popularity
which leads directly to more and more corporate acceptance.

After following this thread for a while, it seems like there is a lot of
discrepancy between what is "success" and what isn't for PHP. I do not
believe PHP will ever become the ubiquitous web language, if for no other
reason than because it isn't always the right choice for your web based
project. PHP is already a strong option in many corporate environments.
Really from what I've seen lately, the only reason it loses out to Java, ASP
(uggh), or other similar options is that it is difficult to find a team of
qualified PHP developers. Even if you can get the project off the ground,
the continual maintenance is a problem. Simply put, I think this means we
have great potential to have long term success, as far as penetrating the
corporate market. As employers start finding the qualified people out there,
and as people re-train/relearn, and as fresh meat comes out, the job market
will sustain our growth. I would say we don't need the multi-billion dollar
backing to be successful as well. Linux, as you particularly mentioned, is
shunned by a lot of suits, but it has grown - and that growth has sustained
itself over the last 10 years, more relevantly the last 4-5. It's starting
to get a little more attractive to suits as bigger and bigger and bigger
companies sponsor or use it. I envision PHP going down this road as well,
though I obviously don't expect the same grandeur that Linux has received.
We will achieve this by doing exactly what Rasmus said - developing a good
product. Though I must digress on the subject of technical conferences.
While they're valuable and by all means we should be there, I believe the
true value will come when people do our work for us - we need to prove to
the world that it is cool to use PHP, and they'll make sure all their
friends are cool too :)

On our website, we use PHP/MySQL to serve up our complete schedule plus juggle event requests from different kinds of people, maintain the look of the site, and serve up audio clips. There's also a large backend component, including maintaining our contact lists (very important for a quartet), a database of all music we know and composers, in order to generate a quick program, our press kit, etc. The PHP end has over 4000 lines of code and MySQL has hundreds of tables. We aren't involved in retail, but that may change.
To start up the website for my string quartet, there were a few sunk costs. The computer to develop on, the audio equipment to convert audio clips from recordings to streaming content, and then there is the monthly fee for hosting.
I already owned the computer, as I use it for other things like having a computer in the house :).
total extra cost: $0
I bought the audio equipment in order to enable the quartet to master our own CDs
total relevant cost: $0 (in fact, we saved over what it would cost to go to a big studio)
The hosting fee is $10/month. The registration fee for 2 domains (chiaraquartet.net/chiaraquartet.com) is $70/year internet access is free through the university we're in residence at. cost: $0
Total cost: $70+120=$190/year
Total cost for phone line: $30/month without long distance.
Total phone cost: $30*12 = $360/year
There you have it. $360 is most definitely > $190.
Have we gotten any benefit off of the website? After a year of hosting (and not directly selling anything other than the quartet), several presenters have approached us through the website to offer concerts that paid much more than the cost of maintaining the website. We've gotten the same benefit from having a phone.
So, it is definitely worth it, even for a business completely unrelated to technology or even retail sales.

true, but who can afford java and .net? oracle..., certainly not the small and medium size companies certainly not african companies certainly not south american companies...and i really belive that's where promotional efforts should go; technology awareness is still low there but the potential is huge and we africans are looking just for this: "cheap and reliable technology, that we can learn from" which is exactly what open source is about...

Is there any marketing done at various universitys? Beyond the the tech market these are new recruits to the arena. Has there ever been a poll done on where the people have picked up PHP? How many people are exposed thru conferences-educational-facilities-book stores etc?

Ubiquity comes from having a hammer, and treating everything like a nail. A person uses the tool he's comfortable with, and knows its quirks and shortcuts. I do not believe, despite periodic resurgence, that there will ever be one "master" language. Past candidates were ... Modula, ADA, Smalltalk ... others? Remember the "fifth generation" computers?
The competent craftsman either uses the right tool, or knows how to quickly bodge something together with what is at hand. Same for programmers, of whatever sex.

I believe this does a great injustice to the many fine programmers who have mastered one or more languages, but have not yet encountered PHP. Anyone who has a sound working knowledge of Java, ASP, Python or Perl, and is a competent programmer, would become productive very quickly in PHP. T'aint that difficult. Even a VB user may come to appreciate its brevity and conciseness. <g>
As for the maintenance issue, that relates more to design and judicious use of comments. It is very easy, particularly with PHP or ASP, to produce pages with a horrible, hard-to-follow commingling of straight HTML and scripting language, so that maintenance, for anyone, is very difficult. It is also easy to end up with obfuscated code in any of the main line, structured, languages.

Is there a way to get PHP to list the names and/or contents of all variables?
phpinfo() shows environment variables, server variables, and form variables, but doesn't actually show what variables you may have in scope, like $myvar.
Is there any way to get this information? It would be ridiculously useful for debugging.

... why do you think you need to use global here?
global is used *in a function* to let it see external variables. You are not in a function, so I don't see why you think you need it.

Several. The first one is you didn't read the archives or look for pre-existing code to talk to SMTP directly. :-)
Manuel's upperdesign.com has one, and there are plenty of others. You could roll your own -- I did, so it can't be too tricky. :-)
Also, at that volume, I think you're going to run into trouble just in talking to the all the SMTP servers. I *BELIEVE* one major speed-up can be achieved by sorting the outgoing emails by their recipient's domains...
You may want to research how "real" mailing list software deals with this if you actually expect to hit 100K addresses.
If they're all the same email, you'd be *WAY* better off just interfacing to majordomo, ezmlm, SmartList, or whatever other mailing list software was designed to handle this.

Hi,
I had this problem. If you say that even without the getimagesize() it is not being uploaded. Then try this. If you declared $the_image in the <input type="file" name="the_image"> try using $the_image_name. From the manual this is what I figured out and it works (on linux)
In PHP, the following variables will be defined within the destination script upon a successful upload, assuming that register_globals is turned on in php.ini. If track_vars is turned on, they will also be available in PHP within the global array $HTTP_POST_VARS. Note that the following variable names assume the use of the file upload name 'userfile', as used in the example above:
* $userfile - The temporary filename in which the uploaded file was stored on the server machine. * $userfile_name - The original name or path of the file on the sender's system.

Look in the manual:

Using global this way does not make sense. Or you are not telling us about functions on this page.

Has anyone out there used ImageCopyResampled()? This function was added in PHP 4.0.6 and requires GD 2.0.1 or later. So I haven't been able to try it out yed.
I'm just wondering if it will deliver better image quality when you use it to render a shrunk-version of a graphic than ImageCopyResized(), which has been available for some time.

Hi All,
I'm running Suse Linux 7.1, Kernet 2.4
I have downloaded and installed the latest version of Apache and it's up and running OK
It is installed in :
/usr/local/apache
To Install PHP, i have downloaded the Source and put it in:
/usr/local/src/php-4.0.6
To Install PHP I have done this ( ihave specified the location of apxs as Suse Installed an Apache server also, but I want the one I've installed to /usr/local/apache):
./configure --with-mysql --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs
Then I type:
make
make install
Then I edit /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf
The required lines ARE there, ie.
LoadModule php4_module libexec/libphp4.so AddModule mod_php4.c
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
I have also copied /usr/local/src/php-4.0.6/php.ini-dist to /usr/local/lib/php.ini
Now the problem : I then go to start my Server as follows:
cd /usr/local/apache/bin ./httpd
BUT Then I get this:
"Syntax error on line 236 of /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf: API module structure `php4_module' in file /usr/local/apache/libexec/libphp4.so is garbled - perhaps this is not an Apache module DSO? "
Line 236 of /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf is :
LoadModule php4_module libexec/libphp4.so
And If I check the file type of libphp4.so as follows: cd /usr/local/apache/libexec/ file libphp4.so
I get : "libphp4.so: ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1, not stripped "
So....Can anybody Help ???
I don't have MySQL installed yet - do I need to have that first ???
Thanks,
Martin Stephenson.

well i've not looked how its done... but the PHP script that generates a image, will do DB stuff as well..
But I will go look how its done After looking its just how I said...
They use a JSCript call to load a new image.. namly: www.AudioGalaxy.com/satQueue/" + SongID + "?" + SID (Where SongID & SID are used for something)
Where this is actually calling a PHP script, that returns a image to be displayed while also doing some DB stuff...
Does this clear it up for you?

Try this:
<?php
$val = 2; $last = 1; $pow = 1;
echo "<pre>\n(0) 1\n(1) 2"; while ($val > $last) { $last = $val; $val = $val << 1; $pow++;
echo "\n($pow) $val"; } echo "</pre>"; ?>
Running PHP 4.0.6 on WinMe, I get 32 bits.

Hi Joe,
GMT isn't affected by daylight savings (altough in the UK we are using British Summer Time at the moment, which is GMT +1), so that's the constant you can work from if you're not experiencing daylight savings schemes where you are. I have written out an example for you below.
We get the Y-m-d H:i:s format of time using gmdate() (which Mysql likes). We convert that lot to a timestamp. The function I've created takes two arguments: whether to add or take time from the timestamp that is generated, and the offset in hours. So, to emulate what Mysql's now() function does, you can do something like this
<?
$now = GenerateOffset("-", "6"); // takes off 6 hours.
$query = mysql_query("INSERT INTO table (datetime) VALUES ('$now')",
$connection);
?>
And you should get correct datetime formats for your timezone into your table (providing you have put your correct offset from GMT).
<?
function GenerateOffset($plusminus, $offset) {
$datetime = gmdate("Y-m-d H:i:s"); list($date, $time) = explode(" ", $datetime); list($year, $month, $day) = explode("-", $date); list($hour, $minute, $second) = explode(":", $time);
$timestamp = mktime($hour, $minute, $second, $month, $year, $day);
if ($plusminus == "+") { $newtime = $timestamp + (3600 * $offset); } else { $newtime = $timestamp - (3600 * $offset); }
$newdate = date("Y-m-d H:i:s", $newtime);
return $newdate; }
?>
Hope this helps.

Thanx James for your answers... perhaps I'm missing a piece of the puzzle, but here is how I corrected or fixed it.
In my included file that gets included in every app and every page, I placed: putenv( "TZ=America/Phoenix" );
and all my dates are now local time. SO saving to a mySQL database now I merely pass in: $now = date( "Y-m-d H:i:s" ); $result = mysql_query( "INSERT INTO table ( datetime ) values( '$now' )", $dbConn );
If I ever distribute this app (doubtful) I'll include a fairly extensive listing of timezones so the putenv() could be appropriately changed... the list I found and would most likely include is here: http://www.theprojects.org/dev/zone.txt

That will stop fread from producing errors. So, if you don't want to see any error's from fread, put a & in front of it. This can also be done with other functions:

You're thinking of the error-control operator.
'=&' is 'get a reference to the returned array'.

Hello,
I want to create a script that would read the contents of an HTML file (I can use Snoopy class for that) and then, download some respective type of files from a page (let's say .zip files)...
Any ideas how do I start or if anyone create something like that?
Thank you and please, reply to

Hi,
I know, the topic looks freaky, let me explain. I have a formular with many input fields called for example "firm[0]", "firm[1] etc. Now I submit and have the values of this variables. But I have so many input fields, that I want to generate the variables by reading the names from a mysql table. I have an table with a field called "firm". Now I read the name "firm" from the table in a variable called $field, put in in a loop an do like this: echo "$" . $field[$counter]; Now I have back my "$firm[0]". But how can I generate from this a variable to get back my value of this?
I hope you understand me, great thanks for any help, because I get nearly crazy from this problem.
best regards, Christian Springub

Hi
Can someone explain to me what "$i % 2 ? 0:" means or what it does step by step? I was looking in PHP docs for "?" and ":" and didn't find it there. I use this line in my script to assign different value for $bgcolor variable to color rows in result, but I want to understand what does it mean.
Thank you in advance,

it's an if/else shortcut.
the part before the '?' is tested. '$i % 2' in your case.
the part after the '?' is returned if the test evals to true. '0' in your case.
the part after the ':' is returned if the test evels to false. i've never tried it with nothing after the ':' like in your case. guess it could be the same as an if without an else.
hope this helps, mike

Documentation at http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.operators.comparison.php
Think of ( A ? B : C ) as
if (A) return B; else return C;
For example, $a = 2; echo "The value of a is" . ($a == 2 ? "" : " not" ) . " 2";
attached mail follows:
I need to strip line break characters (or whatever the character is that results from users hitting their "enter" key inside a TEXTAREA form input) from a string. These characters will appear anywhere in the string, not just at the end. In perl, the regex would look something like this...
$a="a\nb\nc\nd\n\n\n"; $b=$/; $a =~ s/$b//g; # produces "abcd"
but i'm a newbie and i don't know how I can translate this to PHP syntax to do the same thing. Any help is appreciated!
Thanks!
