There will probably be different levels of error reporting in the two
php.ini files.

view is an index of the array $HTTP_GET_VARS, and is apparently not
defined at that part of the script.

Executables that don't require PHP to be installed on the target machine are unlikely to ever happen, because going down that route, you end up losing many technical features that PHP offers you (performance, and certain degrees of functionality).

Regarding source code hiding, you can use the Zend Encoder. Pricing wise, the lowest you can get it for right now is $50/month, which may be too high for certain developers.

Uhm, really? I mean, if you don't make $50/month, the developer doesn't seem to be making a lot of money. And for such micro-projects that such a guy seems to be doing - why even care about hiding source code?

Hi folks

I would just like to highlight an issue which I feel has a negative effect on the acceptance of PHP.

This is the difficulty of finding, downloading, compiling and installing the various PHP libraries not included in the core distribution. Many quite important libraries seem to be persoanl projects which are not supported by the core team, and are hosted on sites that can be down for days at a time. On Linux, many still require a re-compile, there is no documentation standard, and no central repository. This compares badly with platforms such as Perl and Java, who tackled this issue long ago.

My own ISP, who is one of the few to offer all PHP & MySQL upgrades as they are released, complains about this bitterly. The upshot is that shared hosting rarely offers more than the core functionality, which can be very restrictive. Setting up your own server can be daunting and time consuming - and the commercial distros such as Zend and Nusphere don't seem to have tackled the library issue either.

In terms of acceptability in the market, I suspect that this creates a negative impression. It seems to me that this is a quite central issue if PHP is to be perceived as a mature platform for building mission critical systems. I do hope that the development team, and those such as Zend who are committed to the future of PHP give this some attention.

Hi Manuel,

Great post. I enjoyed the part where you said it would be a good idea to do some 'competition' with php programmers, sponsored by some company.

For example, most times when I want a php script, either I go to Hotscripts.com or Sourceforge.net.

Sf.net, by rebound, makes me remind of VA Linux. It is a good example of how to brand your name on the Open source community, by helping it.

But back to the contests, I wish there was a large corporation that would promote it between developers. Something like:

1) We want to build a website for our B2B strategies.

Then release the plan and specs for the whole world. Anyone can try to build. Only one scripting language allowed, any database, or something around these lines.. Later on, costs/time of development/features/security/etc... would be considered, and a 'winner' would be chosen.

That would be hard to happen, since the folks at large corporations that make these kind of decisions hire a 'team' based on various aspects, specially what they heard that exists and recommendation of friends/companies.

Analisys of 'case-studies' is hardly done. They won't browse the web to look for other solutions, either they will open the New York Times and read 'x-y-z did their site with (anything but php)'.

So, what we need is to spread the word to the world that php was, and it is, used on large sucessful projects. By gaining larger clients, media will follow.

But this opens a question, how to make the large corp see php (and of course, the people who use it) as something worth?

Basically, have another large corp to use it. How to get out of this loop? This circle where something to happen it needs itself to happen?

Maybe it is necessary to, contrary to what the community uncosciusly believes, empower with resources only ONE 'thing', either a company or a group of person.

The common descentralization of power on open source might have to be reviewed, but as always, carefully planned to produce results.

At least, it is an idea ;-)

Actually, I think you're right.

On the one hand, it's quite nice that there are so many librariries which can be compiled in (CURL, dbm, gettext ....). I think that's nice, because having this kind of support in a binary C library makes it rather fast.

BUT: It's not as easy to install if you don't have full access to the server.

With Perl on the other hand, you basicaly just download MP3::Info from CPAN and can easily download and install it. It's a lot easier since there's (most of the time) no binary compile needed. (Uhm - MP3::Info, hmm, bad example *G*).

You can find out type of uploaded file like this:

if ($img1_name_type=='gif') { image is gif do this } else { image is not gif do that }

I hope it helps

This may work, but it could result unwanted behaviour for broken browsers that do not send cookie correctly. Some broken browsers do not send cookie first time sometimes. We need to direct once to make sure.

This works somewhat, but not 100% :)

Oops, my english broken. My English broken all the time, though :) Anyway, we need to "redirect" once to be sure, since broken browsers do not send cookie for the initial request sometimes.

Hi,

I'm curious what programs/platforms different people use to develop PHP.

I don't have access to a good unix or linux server (need the hard drive space for large .wav files), so I develop in Microslop Losedose. I have been using Allaire HomeSite 4.5 because of its excellent support for color coding, and for downloadable help (have both PHP and MySQL docs available in the program, and it doesn't crash like PHP Coder). After a while of coding by uploading and testing online, I downloaded Xitami web server and do all of my developing and testing offline, then upload. I don't use a debugger.

Anyone have a sweet setup that makes it all easier?

Under Windows, PHP sets Date header for mail if sendmail_path is _not_ defined. If you are using sendmail compatible progmram, this won't apply to your problem.

Looks like someone commented out following lines in sendmail.c (I'm refering PHP 4.0.7-dev source)

/* extern int _daylight; extern long _timezone; */

And _timezone is used as follows

(_timezone > 0) ? "+" : (_timezone < 0) ? "-" : "",zoneh,zonem)

They are probably commented out due to thread safe issue. I guess this bug is introduced when this change is made. (I'm just looking at source briefly and _not_ 100% sure.)

It is possible you have configuration problem also. Is your web server can get zoneinfo that you want? If not, it is possible having this problem even if there is _no_ bug.

Check your server configuration first. If you are sure that your server is ok, submit bug report and ask developers if this is a bug or not.If this is a bug, it will be fixed hopefully.

PS: You might want to ask W2K users to verify this problem. Post new article with title like "Possible mail() bug under Windows". Then Windows users will pay attention. I'm not a windows user :)

G'day Guys

Sorry, i should have explained it better. What i want to do is grab 2 different lots of text from the same page. Say the page had this text

10am Some text 12pm Different text 2pm

I want to be able to grab from say 10am to 12pm and store it in $texta and then grab from 12pm to 2pm and store it in $textb - but with the script i've pasted below i can only grab one lot of text at a time! to grab 2 lots of text from the same page i have to have 2 scripts and in the end i've opened up and closed the page twice! Anyway, any help i can get will be much appreciated

This is the script i'm using <?

$GrabURL = "url.txt"; $GrabStart = "start"; $GrabEnd = "stop";

$file = fopen("$GrabURL", "r"); $rf = fread($file, 20000); $grab = eregi("$GrabStart(.*)$GrabEnd", $rf, $printing);

$printing[1] = str_replace("replacedatestamp", "withnewstamp", $printing[1]);

fclose($file); echo $printing[1];

Manure Occurs.

attached mail follows:

You could do this if your $GrabStart and $GrabStop are ALLWAYS the same (Like: ###START### 10pm Blah ###STOP### ###START### 12pm Blahblah ###STOP### )

$file = file("url.txt"); $str = join("\n", $file); // You can use whatever to join the rows

$GrabStart = "###START###"; $GrabEnd = "###STOP###";

then use preg_match_all() to match everything between $GrabStart and $GrabStop.

Hopefully this helped you out.

Niklas, unfortunately the start and stop points change constantly, i'm hoping to get around this by using the substr() function - luckily the format (in tables) stays the same

My main objective is for the file to be read once only, by the time i'm finished i'll probably be grabbing 20-30 different areas of text/numbers from a file, and i'm paying for anything over 1gig downloaded from my account each month, so it could end up quite expensive. This is an example of the file i'm grabbing from

Try multi-byte string module. It can detect encoding and convert one from another. Look for PHP manual for details. You might also interested in iconv module. It does not detect encoding, though.

It's sizeof (int), i.e. the same size as an int in C on that platform. Typically that's 32 or 64 bits

Should be trivial to use larger ints for that.

I'm not familiar with this module, which only works under Windows, but an undefined function usually means an extension is not loaded or available.

I notice in php.ini-dist that there is a line

extension=php_printer.dll

so you'll want to check that your php.ini file has that and it's not commented out.

Where do you want to print, client-side or server-side? 'Cause if you want to print client-side it's real easy; using PHP you can't print client-side, you'll have to use JavaScript.

Amen.

As a member of a back-to-front web-design firm, we have resorted to hosting many of our customers in-house simply because the ISP that is currently hosting them either refuses to update accessory libraries, refuses us accessibility to update them ourselves, and/or treats the entire idea of their deficient system as incredulous.

As a result, we have had certain projects that we had originally budgeted 2 days development and implementation time blow up into 2 month every-other-day negotiation with a hostile ISP complete with phone tag, additional agreement signing, and ultimately domain name transferring (which we should have done in the first place).

One thing that I am _shocked_ has fallen by the wayside is payflow pro implementation. Until a short while ago, everyone I spoke with at Verisign tech support about PHP SDK implementation treated PHP like a dirty word and refused to help with it. Messages on php-general were answered by numerous "uh, yeah -- tell me how you do it when you find out" with conflicting answers from those who had an idea on how to get it to work. There are plenty of work-arounds if you're running your own show, but if you are dealing with a semi-hostile ISP, you are in for it.

The ISP wouldn't give us info on where the CERTS were stored (because of security issues they said) so we couldn't put an environment variable pointing to them and use an exec() or passthru() to make it work either.

And then the SSL conflicts with payflow pro SDK were laughable. How else would you want to use payflow pro except under an SSL environment?

Don't get me wrong, I'm a *rabid* supporter of PHP and if not for it I'd certainly not be where I am right now. :-)

I hope someone has got solution for this:

I'm trying to write a script which will watermark a jpeg file with png logo, and output the resulting jpeg to a file. Unfortunately, whatever I do, I'm unable to get transparent color in png to disappear, by any means.

the png file is 8bit, jpeg is true color; Am I doing something wrong? have a look:

$sourcefile="test2.jpg"; $insertfile="peoplestamp.png"; $targetfile="test.jpg"; $transition=50;

$insertfile_id = imageCreateFromPNG($insertfile); $sourcefile_id = imageCreateFromJPEG($sourcefile);

$sourcefile_width=imageSX($sourcefile_id); $sourcefile_height=imageSY($sourcefile_id); $insertfile_width=imageSX($insertfile_id); $insertfile_height=imageSY($insertfile_id);

$dst = imageCreateTrueColor($sourcefile_width,$sourcefile_height); imagealphablending($dst,TRUE); imagecopy($dst,$sourcefile_id,0,0,0,0,$sourcefile_width,$sourcefile_height);

$aaa=imagecolorresolvealpha($insertfile_id,255,255,255,255);

imagecolortransparent($insertfile_id,$aaa);

imageCopyMerge($dst, $insertfile_id,0,0,0,0,$insertfile_width,$insertfile_height,$transition); imagepng ($dst,"$targetfile");

?> <img src="<?=$targetfile?>" border=0>

Hi all,

Can anybody help me with this authentication problem?

Clients can log in using a html form on my site. When they log in their username and password are checked in a mysql database. Then they are forwarded to a url, a directory on my site also coming from the db. This directory should not be public of couse, so I did a chmod 744 on the clients directory.

Anybody has any ideas? I prefer not to use the standard window popup thing for authentication. I checked the php manual, but there is not much info on plain html forms on the subject, or maybe it is my English...:-)

Hi Wilbert,

what I have done in the past (probably not the best way) is to stick a function call in the top of all pages in that directory which calls a function that checks for a cookie to see that the person viewing has actually logged in.

I hope that helps. Abe

hi!

I ever solve this problem with sessions... when a user does the login, I have

session_start(); session_register("allowed"); $allowed = true;

and on the top of all the other sites, where just "special" users are allowed to go in, there is a

include ("checkAllowed.php");

checkAllowed.php just contains: if (!$allowed) die ("Access denied");

I hope I could help you... if so - or if you have got questions, please feel free to email me!

I've also been having problems with trying to pass parameters in the path, using PHP as a CGI. I would hate to go into production with this site with page.php?query=value&query2=value2 type of URL's, but I've not been able to find a way to get page.php/value/value2 to work (throws Premature end of script headers).

If anyone has ANY suggestions about how to get this working with the CGI version, it would be most appreciated! :)

<pre> <? $mem = "<pre>hello world\nI love you all!</pre>"; $re = "/<pre>(.+?)<\\/pre>/im";

preg_match_all($re, $mem, $match);

var_dump($match); ?> </pre>

and the output is: array(2) { [0]=> array(0) { } [1]=> array(0) { } }

if i remove the \n in the $mem var everything works okay.

attached mail follows:

I think that is the solution:

<? $mem = "<pre>hello world\nI love you all!</pre>"; $re = "/<pre>(.+?)<\\/pre>/is";

preg_match_all($re, $mem, $match);

var_dump($match); ?>

The modifier which will work for you is 's', not 'm'. Look at the manual at : http://www.php.net/manual/en/pcre.pattern.modifiers.php

This produces: array(2) { [0]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(16) "<pre>hello world" } [1]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(11) "hello world" } }

In this case it's better your pattern to be : "|<pre>(.+?)</pre>|is" / was changed to |, and there is no need to escape.

We've used rackspace, webservepro.com, xo, and had machines placed at exodus.

Webservepro.com is the least expensive, and they still maintain pretty good service (personal service I mean). No default UPS - you gotta pay extra for that if it's that important to you (over 2 years hosting - 2 hours of downtime due to power issues).

exodus - darn expensive.

xo.com - again, darn expensive for what you get. rackspace has/had the same equipment for about halfprice. AND you get 'root' at rackspace - xo wouldn't give it out (well, we couldn't get it without signing a lot of papers, etc.) and this was for a client. It took 3 hours to get PHP installed because it wasn't there by default, and we had no permissions to do anything. That was $699/month.

I would like to also add in, my real job we have exodus as a host, we are going to be moving from exodus due to worries about their business and them going under ... just to let you know they have dont nothing to calm down our fears, while our $34/k a month doesnt make us a huge client you would still think that they want us happy.

rachspace I would concur, never tried webservepro, my host is a dedicated just-hostit.com, they are new but they give top flight service, and you speak directly with them ... very rarely do I have to try calling twice ... they will work with you on access, and they can even provide PHP development talent for projects or help.

howdy,

this should be simple but i don't know it. i use the following mysql table field as the Key for my tables:

"id int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,"

now, when i have to clean up items in my tables, like when users have sent off a .html form multiple times and i want to delete duplicate submissions, how can i quickly & easily update all of the 'id' fields in the entire table, to reflect the numeration change?

now, using phpmyadmin, if i go in and delete a few entries, the id's have gaps in them..

mucho gracias,

tom

attached mail follows:

It there are not many gaps, do it by hand. Another algorithm is to make a script: <?php

db_connect(); $table = "some_table"; list($last_id)=mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("select id from $table ORDER BY id DESC limit 1;")); $counter=1; while ($counter<$last_id){ $res=mysql_query("select * from $table where id=$counter;"); if (db_num_rows($res)){ }else{ while (!db_num_rows(db_exec("select count(*) from $table where id=$last_id;"))){ $last_id--; } db_exec("update $table set id=$counter where id=$last_id;"); $last_id--; } mysql_free_result($res); $counter++; }

I think that the idea is clear; After this modification : 1) create table $table."_new" select * from $table; drop table $table; ->rename the $table."_new" to $table. DO NOT FORGET TO CREATE AGAIN THE INDEXES ON THIS TABLE. 2)or create a empty table with the same structure. phpmyadmin is ideal for that. after that 'INSERT INTO table_new select id,one,two, three,..., from table;

Hope this will help.

There is another setting which affects this, gc_probability. This setting determines how often the garbage collection routine runs (that kills off old sessions). The default is 1, which means the gc runs on one out of every 100 hundred requests. So, if the server is not getting alot of requests, the gc routine doesn't run very often, and sessions last longer than the timeout value.

Are there any ways to control exact printing output? Like exact positioning of an object (pic, text or whatever) in a A4 sheet, for an example?

Thanks in advance,

attached mail follows:

Use PDFs or Word or something else. Straight HTML wasn't intended to be a method of specifying exact locations for paper reproduction.

Using pdflib with PHP (you'll need to compile it in and possibly purchase it as well) you can do this. Using COM support under Windows/PHP you can theoretically create Word files - how accurate you can get with specifying object positioning via that method is something I don't know.

Good luck.

Do a search on freshmeat.net for Soap. I think you'll find someone who've made an parser for soap. BTW, Soap is just XML, so find more info about Soap and use the XML functions of PHP to generate and parse the messages sent.

I know it's not specifically what you're looking for, but it may help further the discussion.

We offer PHP training courses. While it's not 'certification' in the sense that we're not a 'well-known, respected' authority, we provide a hands-on environment where you learn a series of skills - from "hello world" thru connecting to a database, add/edit/delete info from a db, and a bit more (user authentication techniques, etc). While we're not accredited in anyway, it has been helpful to many of our students who need the helping hand and/or something more than a book/magazine.

We'd love to work with others in the PHP community to help develop a set of certification standards, though there doesn't seem to be a big outcry for it right now from the community.

I have a MySQL DB that has 3 tables, each table has data for one year (i.e. states99, states00 and states01). I want to be able to have the results.php script connect to the database, make a query from multiple tables and display it to an HTML table, for example: State | 1999 | 2000 | or State | 1999 | 2001 ---------------------- AL |23,010|12,567| . . .

Hello. I am reading in text files in a php-script and am getting path errors.

I have set the php-path in php.ini to /home/web/public_html/cgi-bin/chanet/ and am trying to call a file in /home/web/public_html/cgi-bin/chanet/daten/. I use the path ../../cgi-bin/chanet/daten/ to call the files (the reason for leaving the directory twice is that I have another place where my webpage is running with a different structure).

I get the following error:

Warning: Failed opening '../../cgi-bin/chanet/daten/menu.dat' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/share/php:/home/web/public_html/cgi-bin/chanet') in /home/web/public_html/inhalt/chanet.php4 on line 80

However, when I set the php-path just to /home/web/public_html/cgi-bin/ and call the files with ../cgi-bin/chanet/daten/, it works.

I have to test set all the rights in public_html to 777, so I don't think it's a rights problem.

Am I not allowed to call up directories which require me to go up two directories??
