Reset the array pointer before the second any any subsequent iteration.

Yes, a reset sounds like the likely solution. <http://php.net/reset> If that's not it, then repost with a code example.

Use foreach and there will not be a need of reset because foreach is not moving the internal array pointer.

Thanks David
That behavior is the best i could acomplish be header() also. But i found another way : 1. I link to a nonexiting directroy: http://www.mydomain.de/pdfs/test.pdf 2. i catch 404s by htaccess redirection 3. i parse the REDIRECT_URI if the request is for a pdf in that vitual directory 4. if true and the file exists i include the downloadscript, which checks for authorisation 5. else raise either authentication of 404 6. works on all browsers !!!!
thanks for your suggestions

Yes, it looks funky... But everybody but IE5 on the Mac will ignore that extra stuff between / and ?, and IE will use that as the filename prompt now.
-- WARNING richardHELP i'm desperate.... I try to write a downloadskript, which results in the fillowing URL : http://www.myserver.de/securedownload.php?pdfdownload=checkliste3.pdf
yes you guessed right : securedownload does some auth-stuff .... it works on win2000 IE 6.0,5.5 NE 6.0 AND 4.76. it also works well on MAC when used with Netscape 4.5 but not when used with IE 5. it always suggests 'securedownload.php' as the filename, which of cause sucks !!!! I tried EVERY combination of the suggested headers at www.php.net/header , but can't get it to work. here is what i use :
..... header( "Content-type: application/download\n" ); header( "Content-Disposition: filename=$download" ); header( "Content-Description: PHP3 Generated Data" );
set_time_limit(0); readfile('/home/path/to/myfiles/securepdfs/'.$download); ....
Anyone ever found a solution for MAC ?????? ( i hate Mac, but my boss uses one, so ....... )

Ok thnx... it worked... but how do you then explain this?:
*********************************************** <?php
class TestClass { var $foo; function setFoo($bar) { $this->foo = $bar; } function getFoo() { return $this->foo; }
}
class TestClass2 { function TestClass2($state) { global $obj; if($state == "page2") { print("TYPE: " . gettype($obj) . "<br />\n"); print($obj->getFoo()); session_destroy(); } else { session_register("obj"); $obj =& new TestClass(); $obj->setFoo("Hello World!"); print("TYPE: " . gettype($obj) . "<br />\n"); print("<a href=\"?state=page2\">Click here</a>\n"); } }
}
session_start(); new TestClass2($state);
?> ***********************************************
When I on "page1" print("TYPE: " . gettype($obj) . "<br />\n"); I get this output: TYPE: object
When I on "page2" print("TYPE: " . gettype($obj) . "<br />\n"); I get this output: TYPE: NULL (and the linie saying print($obj->getFoo()); generates an error: Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/httpd/html/test/save_objects.php on line 27
(just so you know: I have no problems saving an object in the session when it's done outside a class. It's when I do this from within a class that the problem occurs)
/watson
attached mail follows:
Hmmm, it seems that "obj" is not saved to the session file.
I don't thik that & before new is needed. Also may the problem is in that you use the class contructor. When objects are saved in session, and on other page you want to wakeup them you must provide two methods for the class: function __sleep(){ return array("r","l","p","m_id"); } function __wakeup(){ $this->res_id=mysql_connnect("user","pass","host"); } __sleep() (double under) is called before wrinting in session file. it returns names (as strings) of variables which have to be saved. Why not all, because you can have a $res_id of db_link which is meaningless to save. __wakeup() is called when the object is restored in memory. If you have $res_id you have to create it here, so the persistent object after restoring to be as before saving.

This is weird :) It worked when I removed the & (thought that I tried that ;). Now I just can't remember why I put it there in the first place. I hope it wasn't importent ... well I will proboply find out when some of the code dosn't work.

I knew about the __sleep() and __wakeup() but not about the returning of an array containing the names of the varibles that needs to be stored. Cool feature - Thanks for the tip :)

if global $var; is called from within a function and $var exist outside the nested function then the $var will be available to the function. example
$var = "hello world";
function say_hello() { global $var; echo $var; } will echo "hello world"
while
$var = "hello world";
function say_hello() { echo $var; } wont echo "hello world"

Subject: [PHP] session and global
Hi folks I just wonder as I saw someone useing session with global and some don't. What is the reason to use session together with global? Like this: session_start(); global $test session_register('test');
I look up in manual using keyword "global", but could not find anything near this. Jack

Although.....
PHAKT is an addon to Macromedia Ultradev that handles PHP in a GUI environment. If you do a search for "PHAKT" on http://askhiran.com you should find the relevant links.
As with most GUI scripting tools, a good deal more code is written than is needed and I would have to agree with Matthew that hand coding is the way forward. I use PrimalScript. Its pretty nifty and you can store your own code snippets to speed up coding. Plus it has intellisense style help while writing your code which comes in handy.
Hope that helps

Hello !
Please help me,
How to get Month name according to server's locale setings ?
I tryed to use:
setlocale("LC_ALL", "LT"); $month = strftime("%B", mktime(0,0,0,$m,1,$y));
But I get message:
Warning: Passing locale category name as string is deprecated. Use the LC_* -constants instead. in
(My PHP runes on Windows Server)
Thank You.

Try what it says, use the constant: setlocale(LC_ALL, 'LT');

Hi all,
I have a bit of a confusing one here. I have two enviroments:
1) Live server -PHP Version 4.0.3pl1 - Nov 21 2000 -Apache/1.3.12 Cobalt (Unix) -Linux
2) Local development -PHP Version 4.0.6 -Apache/1.3.20 (Win32) -Windows 2000 Pro
Now on the live server everything works fine but on my dev server, certain scripts return errors claiming that "Cannot add header information - headers already sent by..."
Both servers have output_buffering set to off.
The pages where the issue seems to arise contain session handling code and location headers eg:
<?
session_start(); $sid=session_id(); $uid=$HTTP_SESSION_VARS[userid];
if (!$uid){ header("location:client-login.php?validate=1"); exit(); }
?>
Anyone any ideas?? I am clean out.
Cheers
Nic

Thanks Andrey but that still hasnt fixed it.
The full error I am getting is:
Cannot add header information - headers already sent by (output started at c:\apache\apache\htdocs\client-secure.php:11) in c:\apache\apache\htdocs\client-secure.php on line 18
Line 11 refers to:
$uid=$HTTP_SESSION_VARS["userid"];
Now I cant understand why PHP thinks this has written to headers. Surely it is simply reading. And more to the point, why does this work on the live server but not on my dev box?

Just a guess, but is $HTTP_SESSION_VARS["userid"] set ? if not you you might be getting some error warning here.

<Reply>
Why use array("$new_cat",...,"$assigned_by"); Loose the quotes: array ($new_cat,...,$assigned_by);
You don't need to use implode(). Just return the array. In the calling function you can then get the results in two ways:
$results = assign(); /* $results is an array */ or list ($new_cat,...,$assigned_by) = assign();
If you want a better answer on what is going wrong, you'll need to send some more code. Eg the code that you've now replaced by <form>. It might just be that the error is in that part.

To continue this (speculative) train of thought:
Would it be feasible to collect some kind of contest entry fee, either instead of or in addition to donations toward the prize? If maximum participation were the goal (and I'm not sure that it would/should be, but for the sake of argument...), it might be a way to get entrants intestered in recruiting more entrants by reminding them that more developers in the contest, the bigger the reward to be won by one of them...
As for collecting funds for such an endeavor, FWIW I (and presumably others) would be more likely to give if it were through the PHP.net group or Zend than through any third-party. At least then if the contest were to fall through, I'm confident that the money would still be well-spent on furthering PHP development/marketing.

Actually... If you are starting a *SMALL* e-commerce business, you can probably start it up for about the same as a phone installation... :-)
Shared web-server: $35 setup + $20/month (or less) Registration: $10/year CCNow or similar processing: very small setup fee, moderate cut of each transaction.
Telephone setup, in Chicago at least, is quite expensive, and probably is more than that. At least, it was 15 years ago when I moved in :-)

Like, I only did it once, and it was GD, and about 80% of the time it puked trying to display an image, but...
Basically, if you compile using --with-apxs in the first place, and then you re-compile from source using that --with-apxs thingie again only you add more --with-foobar options, you get these .so files in the libs directory that you can just http://php.net/dl into your script rather than install the whole new PHP binary. More importantly, you could compile them on a different machine (same hardware with all the same versions of everything) and then put them onto a server that ain't got those toys.
(In my case it was about not altering the "main" PHP binary and making it non-standard from the other 7 boxes for what was just a test run of something I wanted to play with for a day...)
Or, at least, that's how my vague memory of stumbling through this once goes...
Now if somebody more organized than me (most of you, I imagine) wants to try that and turn it into a HowTo to add to the PHP site, that would be pretty nifty :-)

Number 1 volume seller of CDs on the 'net? Amazon.com Number 2: CDBaby.com
Reference: http://musicians.about.com/library/sellcds/blcdbaby.htm (Follow "Back to Retailers Index" to read about his few competitors that are still around)
And is Amazon even making money yet? Last I heard, they were going to lose "only" a few million this year. :-^
I would say that being #2 behind Amazon that's spent a bazillion dollars promoting themselves and has lost money year after year that amounts to more than the GNP of small countries is pretty good, wouldn't you?
And he doesn't even accept major label music -- only indie. So, like, how does he get to be #2? He works his ass off and has a savvy business plan that's good for his vendors (the musicians), and fair to his customers.
Just in case that's not enough, here are some more reasons that I know it's successful.
#1. He has grown the company slowly from him and a friend part-time to six (6) full-time employees. Wanna see a picture of them? It's on the site or the companion site http://cdbaby.ORG (.ORG is for musicians behind-the-scenes info) Meanwhile, his competitors (now defunct) spent VC money to hire 120 people to do the same job... Hmmm. VC to hire 120 people overnight, or grow slowly to 6. Which one was the good business plan? #2. He's been around for several years, survived all the dot-bombs, and has (I think) acquired the content/inventory of a former competitor or two and cut a deal to sell CDs for a complementery web-site (http://garageband.com). #3. His competitors have almost all folded or laid off 80% of their staff. He's had no layoffs. #4. He sells ~10,000 CDs per month (more near Xmas). He gets $4 a CD. You do the math. #5. I've done some work for him. #6. Never met a dissatisfied vendor, and I'm in contact with hundreds of them. #6b. Most of his competitors have many, many dissatisfied vendors, and I'm in contact with them. :-| You can review archives from just about any music-related mailing list, and look for "CDBaby", "Amazon", "The Orchard", and "CDStreet" and so on. I'll tell you now which one is always recommended by virtually everybody. #7. He has a chart online from his accountant of what he sold. Some doofus tried to sue him for "false advertising". He sent his books to the judge, and the case was thrown out. So that chart showing his sales of 10K units a month is almost-for-sure not fake, eh?... #8. I'm a satisfied vendor and customer. #9. He's routinely invited to speak at music conferences, so I'm not alone in my assessment. #10. You can estimate what he spends on bandwidth etc, and employees, and work it all out. He ain't wealthy (yet), but his business is healthy. #11. Visit the site. You'll figure out why he's successful. There's no BS or huge over-blown hype. Just CDs for sale. Hell, find a CD you like and buy it. You'll understand even better why it's successful :-) Try mine first: http://cdbaby.com/rosner http://cdbaby.com/jademaze #12. One of the artists (Of A Revolution) that was listed on the cover of Performing Songwriter a few months ago derived much of their success and sales from his site. Getting your band name listed on the cover of Performing Songwriter is not trivial. Getting it there without major label support is phenomenol. #13. He *UNDERSTANDS* his vendors, because he got started by needing a site to sell his CDs. He's the *ONLY* one who passes on the contact info for the purchaser to the artist. His TCO to get started as a vendor is minimal ($35+ 5CDs). The $35 covers him scanning the artwork and RealAudio encoding the songs, cuz he knows not every musician can do that easily/correctly. His forms to fill in to sell a CD are designed for anybody to figure out.
I actually could go on with a lot more little stuff, but I reckon that's more than enough :-)
> If they are really doing so well because they have a business plan with > a revenue model, why do they succeed when others that also have a > business plan with revenue model don't?
Which dot-bomb had a business plan, with a revenue model, which did *NOT* involve going into heavy debt and blowing huge piles of VC money for several years in a market-share grab on the Internet, where the barrier to change brands is one (1) click, where the only "plan" for payoff was to go IPO "some day"?... That's not a business plan. That's a recipe for disaster. *MOST* of the dot-bombs never had a chance.
A business plan is a *REALISTIC* estimate of what you're gonna spend, what you *CAN* do, and how much money the things you *CAN* do will make. Either the income exceeds the expenses, or it's not a business plan any more.
> Would their model work outside the US?
It already *DOES* work outside the US! He'll sell indie music CDs for anybody on the planet. For buyers, he'll accept anybody's money, and ship CDs anywhere on the planet. Shipping charges are in his "Help" page. He'll even open the CD up and only ship the CD and artwork (no plastic jewel box) if you're outside the US.
Actually, there's no reason why another one couldn't be set up outside the US to focus on a different music market, if somebody was willing to invest the time initially to run it. Count on a lot of time opening boxes, entering data, scanning artwork, encoding audio, and stuffing CDs into mailer packs... But if somebody's actually ready to work, yeah, it could be done. I'd keep the day job at first though.
It would have to be some place with an existing populace of music buyers within reasonable shipping distance to get started, and, most critical, an e-Commerce provider who will work with you as a non-US business to run the CC transactions. That could easily be a fatal snag if you're not willing to open a US checking account or do whatever needs to be done to set up e-commerce in that country.

Internet market share is an illusion when you can change brands with a few clicks. The only way to keep Internet customers is to provide good service and products at competitive prices, and continue doing so year after year.
It's virtually impossible for big corporations to compete on that playing field, because their overhead costs are too high. The only way they can sell at a competitive price is to lose money on every sale, a dead-end tactic that only works until you burn through all your investors' cash.
Businesses need profit to survive. So why would any business be willing to lose money on a sale? To gain Internet market share which is an illusion in the first place? Obviously, that's a fundamental mistake made by many large corporations trying to grab Internet market share.
Small businesses, like CDBaby, are the future of this market.

Manuel,
I started answering your letter point by point, but stopped, as it wouldn't have gotten us anywhere.
I'm sorry if sharing my (IMHO very realistic) estimate of the PHP world seemed like an insult to you or anybody else. Not everything that is done in the PHP world is of good quality. PHP and the various services around it are not magical, and are not free of flaws. It would be scary if it was. I basically said it out loud. Do I appreciate each and every effort made to improve PHP and the community around it? Definitely. Is everything that's done perfect? No. Some of the efforts are young, and will mature. Some are just not that good. Many are great. I'm sorry you fail to understand that this is a tricky business and not black&white, and try to show my points in a very negative light. Talking in theoretical terms is much easier than trying to work with the real-world resources and context, and picking realistic routes.
As for the GUI business, I'll repeat what I answered to others on this list, and on other lists, in many occassions. First off, Perl and Python are *NOT* successful GUI platforms. They may be feature complete, they may be very easy to use and develop (I don't use either, so I don't know) but in practice, they're completely negligible in the GUI world. I don't think anybody has a good reason to believe this is going to change in a revolutionary manner. Now, does the fact that I think that hurts the developers of Perl's and Python's GUI bindings? I sure as hell hope it doesn't, and it doesn't, if they're realistic people. I don't see the efforts made in the PHP-GUI front as fundamentally different. It's useful, it's cool, it should be developed and improved, and no, it will not take over the world.
About a central resource of PHP sites that has a voting system - I think that's a good idea. You're quite welcome to implement it if you volunteer. www.php.net will happily host it.

Another user on the same shared server can probably work at it and manage to read anything in your web-tree...
Stuff like database passwords should be moved to a directory not in your web tree, and change your include_path to reach it -- It's still readable by somebody who works at it, but not as easy.
If you have an algorithm that *MUST* stay secret, re-code it in C and compile it into PHP, or use the Zend Encoder off-line to make a binary.

Then figure out what you want, and go read that with fopen.
It's just a URL, and PHP doesn't really care whether it's HTML or what that you read.
Snoopy might even be able to do it.

Well, it's a DSO, but it got broken somehow when you built it... I mean, a car that you build from scratch with no carbuerator is still gonna look like a car, but it ain't gonna run too good. :-)

YES!
(Technically, in some situations, no... But for now, just go with YES! as the answer.)
If you don't have MySQL installed, PHP has to use its "built-in version".
This "built-in version" has a rather low chance of matching up with the version you are actually running. In some instances, I conjecture that it might also conflict with a version that Apache is *already* using with mod_auth_mysql or some other nifty Apache module I've never heard of that uses MySQL... But I dunno for sure about that part.
Anyway, if the versions are far enough off, your PHP and your MySQL won't talk to each other, or will talk, but some functions won't work right, or PHP itself won't even be able to be loaded.
At any rate, get MySQL, install it, and be sure to use --with-mysql=/path/to/mysql when you re-compile to get the right stuff.
*ALSO* -- You have to watch what goes by during configure. Some "errors" are printed but aren't big enough to stop the configure script. Alas, they are, in some cases, big enough to make your PHP non-functional, or at least not having all the features you asked for. You can check the files left behind from configure name config.log and config.cache. They're just text files. A little digging in there may help you figure out what exactly went wrong.
WISH LIST: config.log doesn't seem to record the Yes/No answer to what happened...

Closing the browser is the best answer. You'll never get 100% no back button caching on every single minor browser release.

Also, this is not a very secure way to do this...
Somebody could easily alter the HTML source of your hidden var_list_1 and alter whatever columns they wanted.
It would be better to pass each value separately.
And, finally, you could put all of this in one file with a couple of if() statements, instead of spread out over three files, and probably make life much easier on yourself.

I don't really understand the question: What are you actually trying to do, and why?
An HTTP POST, by definition, returns one, and only one, HTML document to the browser.
Within your PHP script, you can alter whatever you want.
If you want to have a download as a result of a POST, I guess you could Zip two files up and download that. Is that what you mean?

You could just log the IP into a database, and then look it up later in another script in a "cron" job. You'll need PHP installed as a stand-alone binary (aka CGI) and you'll want to read:
man 5 crontab
You could use select distinct and then would only need to look up each IP once for a user that viewed many pages.
If you wait too long, though, the IPs will change on you for DHCP clients. Still the same country probably though.
To answer your original question :-) what you are talking about is called "fork" (like a fork in the road) and you do it something not unlike this:
exec("/path/to/some/other/script &", $results, $errorcode); echo implode("<BR>\n", $results); if ($errorcode){ echo "OS Error: $errorcode. Usually path/permissions. man errno<BR>\n"; }
It's the & symbol that tells the shell to fork.
The other script in question has to, errrr, I forget exactly, but I think it has to *NOT* bind up stdin, stdout, or stderr, because then Apache and PHP are waiting for that output...
Search the archives for "fork" and "&" and "exec" and you should find more posts.

The point is you can turn it OFF to force cookies to *NOT* be used, and use PHP_SESSID in the URL instead. Thus, you don't even present the user with a cookie to deny/accept/whatever.

Anyway to do this fast:
$arr = array("set1" => array(1, 2, 3, 4), "set2" => array(11, 22, 33, 44), "set3" => array(111, 222, 333, 444));
It's not that I want to access $arr like: echo $arr['set1'] I also want to access it as: echo $arr[1] (and it must be equal to $arr['set1'];
and It seems i can't do this: $arr = array("set1", 1 => array(1, 2, 3, 4), "set2", 2 => array(11, 22, 33, 44), "set3", 3 => array(111, 222, 333, 444));
any suggestion to get an array associated by both number and string keys?
attached mail follows:
<?php $arr = array("set1" => array(1, 2, 3, 4), "set2" => array(11, 22, 33, 44), "set3" => array(111, 222, 333, 444)); $a=array_keys($arr); var_dump($a); // var_dump(array_keys($arr)["set1"]); not possible

not what I want! i want something like this when you do mysql_fetch_array() don't you get a reference to your columuns via fieldname or array index?
ie. $row = mysql_fetch_array($result_set); echo $row['name']; or echo $row[0];
same return same value! I want something like it with my initial post.

The return value of mysql_fetch_array is something strange. You receive into the array data copied to times. 0 is no alias to 'name' for example. If you want this behaviour do that: $arr=array_merge_recursive($arr,array_values($arr)); now do what you want to do

Dear all,
This is my quandry... I am trying to build a socket server to transfer simple information, more of a monitoring tool. But after about 14+ hours it just kicks out, without rhyme or reason. No errors, no nothing... I was curious if anyone could see big gaping holes in my code that would allow for this, it's being run on Linux via the command: /web/sockets/socketserver 2 > /web/sockets/logs/error.log & Same for the client piece.. and the code in each is as follows, the client is:
#!/scs/pkg/bin/php <? set_time_limit (0);
error_reporting (E_ALL);
echo "TCP/IP Connection ";
echo exec('date');
echo "\n";
$address = "mymain.server.net"; $port = 4001;
do {
exec('/usr/bin/uptime > /tmp/uptime');
exec('/bin/date >> /tmp/uptime');
exec('/usr/bin/top -bn1 > /tmp/proc');
exec('df -k > /tmp/dfk');
$sock = socket_create(AF_INET,SOCK_STREAM,0) or die("Can't create socket.\n");
echo "Socket created, [$sock].\n";
socket_setopt($sock, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, 1);
echo "Attempting to connect to '$address' on port '$port'...";
$result = socket_connect($sock,$address, $port) or die("connect() failed.\n Reason: " . socket_strerror($result) . "\n");
echo "Connection established.\n";
$in = file('/tmp/uptime'); $inb = file('/tmp/proc'); $inc = file('/tmp/dfk'); $out = ''; $clear = "new\n";
$ret = socket_read($sock, 4096, PHP_NORMAL_READ);
socket_write ($sock, $clear, strlen($clear));
sleep(5);
if($ret == "Ready\n") {
echo "Sending file...\n ";
$num = 0;
$numb = 0;
$numc = 0;
for($num; $num != count($in); $num++) {
socket_write($sock, $in[$num], strlen($in[$num]));
usleep(50000);
}
echo "OK...\t";
for($numc; $numc != count($inc); $numc++) {
socket_write($sock, $inc[$numc], strlen($inc[$numc]));
usleep(50000);
}
echo "OK...\n";
} else {
echo "Sleeping for Retry\n";
socket_write ($sock, "quit\n", 5);
socket_close ($sock);

Helo techies ,
Iam getting the following error .Any help is appreciated.
Fatal error: The script tried to execute a method or access a property of an incomplete object. Please ensure that the class definition user of the object you are trying to operate on was loaded _before_ the session was started in theme.inc on line 6 Thanks in advance, Senthilvellan.
attached mail follows:
May be you save as session variable a object and try to recreate in another script. But in this second script you don't include/require the script with definition of the class. If this definition is in the first script cut it from there and paste into a new file save it using some name and include()/require() in every file which uses sessions.

I'm working on a project that involves a lot of SNMP data gathering. I was wondering if it's possible to have a multi-threaded PHP script. Basically the SNMP queries I'm running are taking a long time to complete (several seconds). However I found that running multiple at the same time does not slow down the response time of any of the others. So I was wondering how easy it would be to get 5 or 6 SNMP queries running at the same time.
If PHP is unable to, I'm going to have to write a C/C++ app, that will do it, then insert the results into a database. Then the PHP script will grab from there.
Any suggestions?

I am getting Apache errors everytime that I try and run a Java class I get a segmentation error. Here is the error from my log
[Thu Aug 30 08:35:33 2001] [notice] child pid xxxxx exit signal Segmentation fault (11) I am running RH 7.1(2.4.2) Apache 1.3.19 with mod_ssl and OpenSSL, PHP is configured as follows:

everything works fine except the Java. I have configured the Java before using Kaffe and everything ran fan. I switched to JDK1.3.1, and also configured PHP as a DSO instead of static in case I wanted to upgrade I didn't have to fight with my system all over again. I have read where php4.0.5 had this trouble and that several people switched to back to 4.0.4. Also is this a bug that needs reporting or is everyone well aware of it and I just need to change my set up. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Hey there i just managed something that i never accomplished beforei kill a httpd process from PHP, i run the following code
<? $slen=strlen($enc); for ($i=0;$i<$slen;$i=$i+2) { $swap=$enc[$i]; $enc[$i]=$enc[$i+1]; $enc[$i+1]=$swap; } ?>
$enc is a string and has an even length
This silly lines of code make the apache child process crash, if i change it to
<? $slen=strlen($enc); for ($i=0;$i<$slen;$i=$i+2) { $swap=$enc[$i]; $swap2=$enc[$i+1]; $enc[$i]=$swap2; $enc[$i+1]=$swap; } ?>
it works well. what the hell is happening here?

I have a MySQL table which stores information like this:
| Type | Place Name | Place Abbrv |
and lets say I have data in the table like:
Example #1: | Office | Bill's Office | bo | | Store | Millcreek Supply | mcs | | Office | Harry's Office | ho | | Store | Sam's Discount Taxidermy | sdt | | Shipping | East Coast Distribution Facility | ecdf |
What I'd like to do is be able to have PHP grab the information out of the database and sort like this on a webpage:
Type Name #1: - Place Name (with hyperlink using the abbrv) - Place Name (with hyperlink using the abbrv)
Type Name #2: - Place Name (with hyperlink using the abbrv) - Place Name (with hyperlink using the abbrv)
For a better illustration, using the information from Example #1:
Example #2:
Office - Bill's Office (link using bo) - Harry's Office (link using ho)
Store - Millcreek Supply (link using mcs) - Sam's Discount Taxidermy (link using sdt)
Shipping - East Coast Distribution Facility (link using ecdf)
So basically it has to group the common "Type" fields together and list them together and make a hyperlink.
What is the best way to do this? I've tried arrays, different MySQL calls, voodoo, ouija boards and drinking, but nothing has gotten me what I need.
btw, the information in "Type" is not a set number. There could be 2 or 200 different "Type". (Otherwise this would be much easier and I might not have a hangover from aforementioned drinking ;p )

This is a recurrent question; I'm going to write a quick answers page for the _next_ 20 people who ask this.
Basically, the answer is a mix of MySQL and PHP:
In MySQL, query your records, sorted by the header column (so that all occurrences with the same value are together).
In PHP, keep a 'last-known header' variable. If the next header doesn't match the previous one, you're starting a new block - so print a new header. Otherwise, you're continuing an existing block, so skip the header.
<?php
$conn = mysql_pconnect("host", "user", "pwd")
or die("Error connecting: ".mysql_error());
$query =
"SELECT type, placename, placeabbrv "
."FROM places "
."ORDER BY type,placename";
$res = mysql_db_query("db", $query, $conn)
or die("Error querying: ".mysql_error());
$lasttype = ""; echo "\n\t<ul>"; while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($res)) { extract($row);
if ($lasttype != $type) { echo "\n\t</ul>\n<br>$type\n\t<ul>"; $lasttype = $type; }
echo "\n\t\t<li><a href='places_$placeabbrv.html'>$placename</a></li>"; } echo "\n\t</ul>"; ?>
Hope that helps.

Address 125 N Huron #400 Ypsilanti, MI 48197 2 blocks north of Michigan Ave in downtown Ypsi.
As usual, we'll see you all between 7 and 8 for eats, then a presentation from Brian Bruns on - refresh me Brian(!) - SOAP/XML and PHP.
For those of you who haven't met Brian yet, he is a minor deity in the open source pantheon, and quite a knowledgeable programmer in many arenas (PHP being just one). You won't want to miss his presentation!
Anyone with questions is welcome to call me directly at 734-480-9961.
RSVPs are encouraged so we get a rough headcount for food (pizza and pop - if there's something you don't like on pizza, and are planning to attend, let me know. If there's enough vegetarians coming, we normally get a veggie pizza or two as well)

... I would make sure that microtime() is doing what you think it is;
something like
for ($i = 0; $i < 100; $i++) { $k = (int) microtime(); echo "<br>$k";
for ($j = 0; $j < 10000; $j++) $m = $j *3; }
If you get a page of '0 / 0 / 0' you'll know what your problem is...
attached mail follows:
Use this function, the "$num" argument, is the total of numbers. Ex: if $num is 5, the funtion will return "56743", is five numbers.
function random($num) { srand ((double) microtime() * 1000000); $temp = rand().rand().rand(); $temp = substr($temp, 0, $num); return $temp;

Whenever I choose a file bigger than about 4 or 5 MB i get an internal server error. I changed the values for post_max_size, upload_max_file_size and max_execution_time in php.ini - without any success. Does anyone knows why?

Have you checked your Apache's .conf file(s). I believe the maximum upload size can be also deterimined there...

Hi All,
I already spent too much time trying to solve this one by myself, so I am in need of a little bit of help.
I have a form with checkboxes, all with the same name (name="noticias[]"). When it is submited, only the selected checkboxes become a value on the array $noticias on the next page. So:
<checkbox name="noticias[]" value="m" checked> <checkbox name="noticias[]" value="w">
$noticias will have only one value, 'm'. Right? I come to this conclusion, but I might be wrong. The values are dinamic, which means not always certain boxes will be checked or have the same value, form by form. So form X can have 3 checkboxes with different values than form Y with 8 checkboxes.
Okay. Now I need to compare the submited values with another 'parsed string', or not if I took the wrong path from the beggining to solve this problem. For example:
$string = 'w=1&r=0&m=0'; parse_str($string); // Will become $w = 1, $r = 0, etc...
Back with the array $noticias, I need to compare the selected values with the ones on the parsed string, still mantaining the parts equal to zero. If array $noticias will only have values with the checked boxes, how can I 'update' the $string (returning a new one, for example) with the new checked boxes and still maintain the ones that equals to zero, if the $string can have an uncertain number of values after parsed?
That's a hard one, I believe ;-)
Say, just to clarify, another example:
$noticias = Array("m","d") $string = "m=0&d=1&w=1&d=0";
The resulted string would need to be: "m=1&d=1&w=0&d=0";
A solution I am trying to unfold for dinamic (or uncertain) strings, it to make a function that one of the parameters is the 'old string', which I would pass to this function, to serve as a 'base' to be updated with the values from the form array ($noticias).
But I am stuck at the part where this old string is compared, and its values are updated if the form's checkboxs are selected, or not.
Am I missing some simple function from the manual that can do this for me? If not, how can I accomplish this result?
Thanks a lot if you read it until here ;-)

I have checked the archives but have not been able to find a suitable answer.
I have a couple of scripts that allow my users to upload files to the server. At the same time, it logs an entry in a MySQL database that links the temp file name created on the server to a name that makes sense for the user.
Here is the problem:
When a user deletes a file from their area, it only deletes in the MySQL database. It does not remove the actual file from the directory on the server.
How can I send a command to remove it from the server within PHP?
Thanks,
Paul

Oops... copying your code I also copied an error. It should be "$var2 == 1" io "$var2 = 1". So your check will be:
$var = "Hello".($var2 == 1 ? "Mr. Bean" : "New Comer")."To The Coffee House.";

$var = "Hello" . (($var2 = 1)?("Mr. Bean"):("New Comer"));
But why do you assign 1 to $var2?
To circumvent these kind of problems, I always write:
$var = "Hello" . ((1 == $var2)?("Mr. Bear"):("New Comer"));
Or, in this case, you could have used:
$var = "Hello"; if (1 == $var2){ $var .= "Mr. Bean"; } else { $var .= "New Comer"; }

Let me give you a brief explanation of how Left Join works (or at least how I think it works =P)
Lets say your two tables in the below query (users and picks) have 4 and 2 rows respectively. If you were to do select * from users left join picks on users.uid=picks.user_id you would get something like
| uid | username | user_id | | 1 | Sheridan | 1 | | 2 | Mark | 2 | | 3 | Jason | NULL | | 4 | Henry | NULL |
That is, you had it show all the rows from both tables while checking only the rows where users.uid has a value (and returning null if picks.user_id doesn't have an equal value). Now what if you were to do select * from picks left join users on users.uid=picks.user_id? You would get
| user_id | uid | username | | 1 | 1 | Sheridan | | 2 | 2 | Mark |
because you told it to show you all the rows from both tables while checking only the rows where picks.user_id has a value. It would have returned null for both users.uid and users.username for any row where user_id had a value that uid didn't. For example, if picks had the values (1,2,11) instead of (1,2) you would get
| user_id | uid | username | | 1 | 1 | Sheridan | | 2 | 2 | Susuan | | 11 | NULL | NULL|
Does that make sense? > How do I add this clause: > > users.uid <> selection.user_uid from table selection > > to this query: > > $sql = "SELECT users.uid, users.username > FROM users LEFT JOIN picks > ON users.uid = picks.user_id > WHERE picks.user_id IS NULL
I am not sure I am following you. What are you trying to do exactly? Are you trying to list all the entries in table users that do not have equivalents in either table picks or table selection? If so I guess you could do something like:
select users.uid,users.username from users left join picks on users.uid = picks.user_id left join selection on users.uid = selection.user_uid where picks.user_id is null and selection.user_uid is null;
If this is not what you are trying to accomplish, reply with a clear description of what you are trying to accomplish. > Thank You.
No Problem. Hope that helps.

You can (possibly) just redirect before the rest of your script. Ofcourse you can't do that when the rest of the script produces output, but it seems to me like it doesn't.
Try the next code:
--- PHP code --- <?php header ("Location: http://somewhere.com"); error_log ("And still my script is running!", 0); ?> --- End of PHP code ---
You'll see that the original script will write the line to the logfile although the user is already redirected to the next page.
Btw... 30 seconds is a rather long time. No user will ever want to wait that long. Just my opinion...

Ah... well...
Don't know what you exactly mean, but you either have to wait 'till the processing has been done (which, like I said, takes too long to wait for), or you can use one of the following options:
- You can have an email send to the user telling him/her that the PDF is ready. You can either send it as an attachment, or just send a URL of the page where the PDF can be downloaded. - You can have the user redirected to a page with a download link on it. Then you still have to problem, though, that the PDF isn't ready yet at the moment the user gets that link.
But you get back to what you're wondering ("if I can use "Header()" to redirect to a general php page"); Yes, ofcourse... you can do it before or after the processing. But! You can't do anything about client-timeouts. And let's be honest... It's not that weird that a browser gives up if it doesn't get any answer for more than 30 seconds. It's a pretty long timeout already.

$m = substr($row[0],0,4); $d = substr($row[0],5,2); $y = substr($row[0],8,2); $dy = date ("D", mktime(0,0,0,$m,$d,$y));
and just using the date field
$dy = date ("D", $row[0]);
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Did you give a look at your own code? A month consisting of 4 digits? And a year consisting of 2 digits? I'd say:
--- PHP code --- $y = substr($row[0],0,4); $m = substr($row[0],5,2); $d = substr($row[0],8,2); $dy = date ("D", mktime(0,0,0,$m,$d,$y));
and just using the date field
$dy = date ("D", $row[0]); --- End of PHP code ---

You're welcome...
and eh... for the "However, the $dy = date ("D", $row[0]) doesn't work.":
It shouldn't. date() requires a timestamp as a second argument, not a string. Unless you retrieve an actual timestamp from your db (which you don't) you could directly feed it to date(). So as long as you get strings from your db you'll have to parse 'm first and then put them through mktime() (like you do in your example). Then you have a real timestamp and you can put that through date().

What I dont understand is why when I read something that could have come from a cookie or session does that right out to headers.

The header error refers to this line as having first sent output. Is that the case?? if so how do I deal with that?

Well, it kind of *is* like C's #define - it adds a kind of "compilation" step to the entire process. Preprocess all the scripts and then you upload them to the server. The problem with comparing things to C is that C is a compiled language anyway :)

For the file pointer on which it operates, it reads the file pointer until EOF and sends the data to STDOUT. It is very much like the 'cat' command in Unix. The file pointer can be to a local or remote file opened with fopen(), or a remote data source opened with fsockopen().
And as always, there's a gem in the docs ... readfile() does the same thing as fpassthru() but doesn't need a file pointer. It just needs a path to a file, so you can eliminate the fopen().

If the image you're sending to the browser comes from a remote host, unfortunately, yes, that image data does get transferred to your server, and then gets transferred again to the users' browsers. Since PHP is a server-side solution, there isn't a way to skip out on the data transfer to your server and use PHP to send the image. The image data has to come from your server when using PHP. You may have to get creative with HTML, DHTML, etc. to work around displaying the remote images from your site.

Morning List-
I have a script which gets passed a "fileID" and using that fileID it queries a SQL database and grabs an actual filename and then does a fopen, fpassthru, etc.... I added the header info (application/octet-stream) so it actually downloads the file right away, instead of just displaying the binary content :)
Anways, the filename that shows up in the "Save As" box is the script name from the calling HREF. Is there anyway to get around this and have it display the actual filename?
A) I can't link to the file directly because these files are not stored in web accessible space.
B) I am using Apache 1.3.20 (FreeBSD 4.3) and PHP 4.06 . Need any other info?

FYI: Since this may be a problem for others, I did figure it out sort of.
If my script is called: filereturn.php I pass this in my HREF: A HREF="filereturn.php/filename.exe?fileID=3333
I don't know if this is a hack or whatever, but Netscape (NIX and Windoze) and IE on Mac will now save the file as filename.exe vs. filereturn.php IE 5.5 on Windoze will return it as filename and forget the extension.

I have a page that is for a little recipe database app. On the page where you enter your recipe, there is a set of form fields for ingredients - one line per ingredient, and a couple of fields per (e.g. amount, measurement, ingredient).
I'd like to have say 5-10 ingredient lines in the form by default, but put an "Add More" button next to the last one that will let the user say add 5 more ingredient lines to the form. How can I do this?
The problem for me is that I figure I'd want the Add More button to either do a POST to the same page (and add a parameter indicating the number of ingredient lines to use or something like that), but that the standard form Submit/Add Recipe button would go to a different PHP page that actually inserted the recipe into the database. But, this requires two forms and thus I'd lose the recipe's form variables when hitting one or the other of the buttons.
I've looked around online for solutions to this, but haven't found any. Can someone point me in the right direction?

The version of php that I use states that Gif Support is enabled. And in fact I am able to create and display gif images. However when it comes to creating an image from a file the imagecreatefromgif function doesn't seem to work. I'll qualify doesn't work to mean a broken image icon is displayed when I try to use this function. I don't know of a way to display error messages yet.
Also there are no other graphic formats supported in the gd section of my phpinfo() report so I am assuming jpeg, wbmp and png can't be used.
I've read many posts and am aware of the problems with gif support, regarding the fact that gif isn't supported in certain versions of php.
Since I have been able to create gifs using imagecreate() I'm a little puzzled about using imagecreatefromgif()
I also found in the posts the idea of using the fread() function which works well to display my gif. Unfortunately what I want to do is annotate the gif before I display it.

Hello everyone!
Crazy question:
I've created a little script that reads in .txt files and, with the help of phplib templates, matches them up with a collection of templates and spits out the beautiful html page.
In order to avoid sending variables through the URL I've stolen this bizarre workaround where, when you call http://www.mysite.com/somepage.html for example, the apache configuration realizes it's a 404 and redirects all 404s through my cms script. Then my script looks for http://www.mysite.com/somepage.txt and does the rest.
This works beautifully, and my plan was to have a "dev" environment that runs against the little CMS system and then wget the whole site periodically for the live server (so, the live site actually *is* a collection of flat pages).
Beautiful plan, but it turns out that WGET doesn't see the apache configuration change that runs all 404s through my CMS script. It sees a 404 and tells me its a 404 and then goes back to its coffee break, you know?
Anyone else tried this workaround before with similar results? Anyone else have a better workaround? Bueller?
Anyway, best, Sondra

I know because of security restrictions javascript can't do this, but is it possible in php? I'm trying to make an upload progress bar, it doesn't have to be exact, but a close approximation would be nice.
Thanks, Chris

Yes, I use to do this with my site.
# The original name of the file on the client machine. $filename = $HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['name'];
# The mime type of the file, if the browser provided this information. An example would be "image/gif". $filetype = $HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['type'];
# The size, in bytes, of the uploaded file. $filesize = $HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['size']; # The temporary filename of the file in which the uploaded file was stored on the server. $filetemp = $HTTP_POST_FILES['file']['tmp_name'];

Not possible. You first have to submit the form before the PHP starts. And then it's too late, 'cause at the moment you submit the form, the files are already being uploaded. You should really have a client-side solution for this (if there is any).

I've got a website, we'll call it MainDomain.com.
I created a specialty site in a sub-directory. We'll call the sub-directory Widgets.
I want a different domain to point to that sub directory. We'll call the new domain WidgetWorld.com
My webhost will allow me to park WidgetWorld.com at MainDomain.com. However, if someone goes to WidgetWorld.com, it would pull up the index page for MainDomain.com.
How can I use PHP to detect if the visitor wanted MainDomain.com (and display MainDomain/index.php) or WidgetWorld.com (and then display MainDomain/Widgets/index.php).
Thanks, Jeff Gannaway ___________________________________________________________

I *believe* what you are looking for is $HTTP_HOST.

I have been doing some amateur web-design by now, but I decided to learn something like php. I was wondering if there is a way to test php code without a server(on local computer).
Thanx in advance

Sure, you should just (for Windows) download the Apache web server for windows, and get the PHP for windows off of php.net. Then you can run a 'local' server that processes your PHP code. Or do the same for a Unix machine...

Sure, you can test PHP code without running any servers. Run PHP as follows:

Metabase does much more than you probably may want. Basically you can just submit any queries to the database server. Metabase doesn't touch them. What it does is when you are composing your queries with constant values, it may convert the respective data type values from a database independent data type set to the target database data types.
Let's say you have strings or date constant values. Each database may have different ways to escape strings or format dates. Metabase provides functions to do that translation if you want to use direct queries. I you want to use prefered queries, with placeholders ( ? ) in the queries that are replace with constant values when the queries are executed, the functions to set those values perform the translations for you.
For retrieving result data returned by SELECT queries, Metabase also provides functions to translate the data to a database independent format, so in your applications you only have to handle one universal format that you do not need to adapt if you decide to switch to your database backend.
That is not all. Metabase also provides unique features, that are very important for Web programming, all in a database independent way. One is the ability to create and access to database sequence objects. Sequences are objects that can generate sequential integer unique numbers. They are often used to generate id values for table primary keys. Sequence number generation is guaranteed to be atomic, so it is adequate for environments where many users access the database concurrently, like the Web. Sequences are implemented with real sequence objects in databases that support it like Oracle and Postgres, but others that don't support real sequence objects are emulated with tables with a single auto-incremented integer field.
Another important feature is the ability for Web programming is the ability to limit the range of rows that are returned from a select query, like MySQL LIMIT clause, but in a way that is supported by all databases supported by Metabase. This is great to let you develop applications that display query results split in multiple pages if they have too many rows.
Metabase is not also good for develop applications to access databases. It is also able to install databases for you creating tables, fields, indexes and sequence from a database independent schema description defined in a specific XML format. Also, if later you need to change your database schema, all you need to do is change the schema description XML file. Metabase manager is able to figure the differences between the new and the previously installed schema and then it just alters the database without affecting the data that was stored after the database was installed for the first time or changed for the last time. This saves you toons of hours and maintenance headache.
Metabase is easy to learn. In the site there is a tutorial document that get you started real quick. If you need further help, you may join to the Metabase development mailing list that is listed in the Metabase page links sections. Look also in the database section of the PHP Classes site for components ready to use with Metabase.

Hello I'm trying to use imap_search to retrieve the all the post after a given date and then put them into a mysql DB. I don't know if this is the best way to do it.
$searchstr = "SINCE Thu, 30 Aug 2001 12:05:49 +0200"; $search = imap_search($nntp, $searchstr, SE_UID);
This should give me a array of all the post after the date in $searchstr, but instead it gives me all the posts in the newsgroup.
Is there anyone that can help me? Thank you
Shimon
