The virtual( ) function is the same as #include on Apache

If you're running a script, you may need to simulate the CGI variables as
they aren't automatically available to a script that you would normally run
with the #exec SSI directive.

This seems way too complicated. I do this sort of thing all the time from a
mysql db. I've no idea where you're getting the data from but if it was from
a mysql db I'd just do

$result = mysql_query("SELECT field1, field2, field3, field4 FROM tablename
WHERE condition");
while ($array = Mysql_fetch_array($result)) $values[] = $array;
...
you van then do ...
foreach($values as $row)
{ echo(" {$row["field1"]}, {$row["field1"]}, {$row["field1"]}<br>");
// or whatever you want to do
}

What is the limit to the amount of emails you can send out at once.. or in a
for loop, to php's mail function?

Rick

attached mail follows:

I imagine that's only limited by your available bandwidth. If you try to
send emails out faster than your bandwidth will allow you'll get a slowdown
on your email server.

I use sleep() between each email to lessen the load on the server.

I received good advice from my previous question:
Before creating a graphic, I would like to detect what type of graphic
files are supported. For example if GD is enabled and GIF Support is
available I'll create an GIF image. I know phpinfo() will tell me this
but I don't want to burden the user with this check.

I implemented the following:
if (ImageTypes() & IMG_GIF)
{
echo "GIF support enabled";
}
elseif (ImageTypes() & IMG_PNG)
{
echo "PNG support enabled";
else
{
echo "This install of PHP does NOT support graphics creation";
}

However when there are no GD libraries installed the following error is
thrown:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: imagetypes()…

Any suggestions to prevent the error message being thrown. Are there
other methods to detect the presence GD libraries before testing for GIF
or PNG support?

Chris

How about using something like this?

if (function_exists('ImageTypes')) {
// GD functions are available
} else {
// GD functions not available
}

http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.function-exists.php is the place
in the manual :)

Hello,

I have developed a member login system with cookies. Now I have the prob,
that the session stayes existend when the browser is closed. This could
couse a problem in Internet caffes for example. As second thing, I have
realized, that it depends on the clients clock!! I am sending a cookie which
expires in time() + $expireseconds. Unfortunatelly the time command takes
the tim from the server and the cookie expires checking the client time.

So... does anybody know how...

1) I get the system to delete the cookie as soon as I leave the site, or
close it
2) How to work on the same time.

Thanx for any help

Cheers Andy

Pass information about date/time via GET or better POST variable(s).

I've been using PHP/mySQL on my web host's site for a year or so, and I now need to create my own installation ...

Given my relatively limited linux background, which distribution woud I find easiest to install? I'll be needing PHP, mySQL, and PDFlib ...

I've done my homework, I've studied every linux text I could get my hands on, and I feel like I'm ready to start ... but I don't want to install one distribution, only to find that it is inappropriate for my needs ... Call me lazy, but I only want to do this once (this week, anyway).

Any help would be most appreciated.

In an on-again-off-again desultory style, I keep trying to find the time to study template systems - and quite separately see if I can find a practical use for XML.

The idea of a template system is that the HTML code/presentation of the final view to the user/browser, can be devised/maintained quite separately from the PHP code required to pull data out of the back-end db/processing/whatever. Correct?

The systems I've looked at do this by allowing you to put 'tags' into the HTML which are subsequently expanded/replaced with 'real data' by the template processor immediately before presentation to the browser.

Now, again broadly speaking, XML allows us to define our own tags, which are subsequently ... Correct?

So: when would you use a template system and when would you use XML? (and thus: on which one should I concentrate my research? )

Any all pointers/references to online information sources will be much appreciated. =dn

I tend to use FastTemplate or similar systems to template most of my output - be that output HTML, Javascript - or XML. That, and the way a program is structured (collecting, processing and only then outputting it in whatever format) makes adding in different assortments of data in a variety of output formats truely trivial.

In the current case, it's book information, so I collect ISBN data, which gets output. In an upcoming project, it will be news snippets - press releases and the like, where the templates will be updated and added to at will for different styles of output, as well as serialised (PHP/WDDX) and XML/RDF/Javascript output .

The XML related templates of which you speak are generally XSL Templates, which are a programming language in themselves, and the XML parsing into XSL is an extensive overhead to carry.

Is there someone 'up' on the way Apache works who can offer some comment please?

Th "how do I display 'please wait' " question was asked by someone (else) last week. The standard answer is "no" - server-side PHP assembles an HTML page, and when it is completed the whole page is transmitted from the web server to the browser. However is this strictly true?

I managed to do something warned about in lesson two of ComSc 101, and put my PHP into a never-ending loop (hey, after all these years, it's just to keep me humble...). What was happening was that a database record would be read in, a whole pile of debug 'echo's sent to the screen to demonstrate the processing, then the next record, and so on... the governor/loop limit code failed and was stuck on 'true' so while true loop forever...

What I saw on the screen - particularly the behavior of the scroll bars, was that a certain amount of data (let's call it a 'buffer') was produced within Apache, and then it would be sent to the screen, then there would be a short pause, then another 'buffer' load would be displayed in the browser, then a pause... This behavior similar to response from a long-distance www link or taking stuff down a slow dial-up line from an overloaded server; BUT everything on my machine is local !

Does this mean that Apache retains a certain amount of the page internally, but once the volume grows, Apache relieves storage pressure by transmitting even though the whole HTML page has not yet been resolved? If so, any idea what the 'buffer' size might be? Or is there any way to adjust that 'buffer' size HTML page by page?

Enquiring minds and all that... =dn

Hi,

For the futurists around here: Is there any chance that php will include "database tags" ala Lasso? For those who don't know what I mean, here's an axample (not quite correct Lasso code, but it should get the point across):

[db select="somedb"] [db query="sql"]

<table>

[record] <tr> <!-- everything in this tag is repeated for each record <td> [field="name"] </td> <td> [field="address"] </td> </tr> [/record] </table>

Err... You get the point... Or, for those of you who have problems recognizing simple stuff when you see it (like myself when trying to learn applescript when I was used to stuff like C), the point is that you don't have to do all that annoying escaping of quotes, and if you open the code in a graphical editor, you can edit to your heart's delight, cuz the db tags stays put.

highly unlikely, but you can achieve similar ends with one of the template engines for PHP. with a little work, you should be able to accomplish the same ends. check out Smarty (dont remeber the URL - check Hotscripts.com) and see what you come up with.

Toni,

Do you actually have the OpenLink Multi-Tier drivers installed?? :)

Installing and linking iODBC as you have done is only half of what you need to get PHP working with ODBC. You will still need an ODBC driver. The OpenLink ODBC drivers currently available for Unix are multi-tier, so you need to have a server component (oplrqb) running as well.

If you do have these components running, then examing the values in your odbc.ini - try an IP address instead of hostname.

Hi-

I am attempting to transfer files from one server to another via ftp. I am wondering if this is the best method to transfer files within PHP or should I seek other methods. Here is the way I am doing it now:

$sendfile = fopen("ftp:user:letmein10.1.1.1/testfile", "w");

Thanks

Need to get started parsing XML documents. I've developed a program to write them XML a database, but now I need to read them to obtain, for example, the (cdata) value of <title> which is nested inside <book>, etc.

What's the best place to start? Does DOMXML have a future?

Tutorials?

Suggestions?

Sure. But it's a bit overkill if you just want to read XML (sequentially). http://php.net/manual/en/ref.xml.html

what is the script that was mentioned a while back that you use to allow apache access to a directory that has all world/group access turned off. It think the discussion was protecting mysql information on a shared server.

I know this is a popular topic, sorry. I did check the archives but could not find that script name that was mentioned.

Try changing this to

function box ($im, $x, $y, $x2, $y2, $color)

(Also in your other function definition.)

On my system the mysql and test databases are created in /var/db/mysql/

I created a database called publish and it likewise was stored in /var/db/mysql/publish.

I needed to start over with the work on publish so I deleted the publish directory. #rm -R /var/db/mysql/publish.

BUT after re-creating the tables all the records still existed, so the records weren't in /var/db/mysql/publish. Where is it?

# rm -R /var/db/mysql/publish # mysqladmin create publish # mysql mysql> use publish mysql> CREATE TABLE eZAddress_AddressType ( ID int(11) NOT NULL, Name varchar(50), ListOrder int(11) DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL, Removed int(1) DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (ID) );

mysql> INSERT INTO eZAddress_AddressType VALUES (1,'Home address',1,0); ERROR 1062: Duplicate entry '1' for key 1

Where dat data at?

Um, not that it's PHP-related, but...

You should use "drop database" instead of manually removing the file.

mysql> drop database databasename

--kurt

attached mail follows:

To delete a database, the best thing to do is login to your mysql DB directly, ie: mysql -u root -p (the root user is the MySQL root, not the sytem root) and supply the password at the prompt. Then do:

DROP DATABASE publish;

This will delete it "correctly". Something that I do is put all my table creations into a file and at the top I put DROP DATABASE name and then recreate it and all my tables. This will reset your database nicely and you can pipe this script into your mysql above, ie:

mysql -u root -p < scriptname

Hope that helps.

Hello,

Andy I have been trying to solve the same problem.

But after some testing I have found that it is not only db access that causes the lag, it seems to be when submitting forms. I wrote a very simple test script have a form reload itself. In IE it happens almost instantly, but in NC it takes up to 5 secs (this is a lot since it is running locally, no network involved at all).

And the script does have html and body tags (open and close) in there.

Does NC process forms more vigorously before submitting than IE does?? I don't know. -Merle

Hi guys,

I have an sql query returning a result of nearly 150 000 rows. I use the PEAR DB::getAll method to retrieve this result as an array which is very big indeed (about 300Mb). I can't use the MySQL LIMIT statement because I need to do sorting stuff on the result array. My concern is that even after processing the last line of the script, the process continue running for about 20~30 minutes (I am watching running processes using the unix command 'top'). For information, querying the database, sorting the array and displaying results with a pager system only takes 3 minutes.

I have made a short example that reproduces the problem. If you could test it (IT WILL USE ABOUT 120Mb OF RAM) and tell me if you've got the same problem it would be nice. You need to create a test database with the following table :

CREATE TABLE test ( id mediumint(20) NOT NULL, text varchar(255) NOT NULL default '', PRIMARY KEY (id) )

Then populate it with 150 000 rows using the populate.php script. Finally, execute the query.php script and use top to see if the process stops running quickly. For me it takes a lot of time to end (more than 20 minutes). If you empty the database table, remove one character from the string in the insertInto function and populate it again, it should work correctly.

Thanks for any answer !!

Dump the Excel DB to a text file and use the string parsing functions. Working with two large databases will suck up most of your system resources; working with a large text file one line at a time and one database one record of a time may be a little slower but it is going to be a million times easier on your system.

flock does not work because works differently.

is there a way to access fnctl locking directly from php?

attached mail follows:

Think of a class as a car:

The car as a whole is one "object", while it is made up of several smaller components that serve various "functions". You can also store different things in the trunk of the car that will be useful later (these would be the class variables).

Now lets think of it in programming sense:

PHP allows for object-oriented programming through their class/object interfaces. All they really do is serve as a place to dump functions and variables that are made to work with one another directly, and in many cases to prevent non-related functions and processes from accessing their data directly (although this is one of the best things about Object-Oriented Programing, PHP hasn't entirely implemented it yet).

A simple class:

class car { var $color; var $doors; var $year; var $model; var $fuel;

function car() { $doors = "4"; $year = "2001"; $model = "PHP Class Car"; }

function addFuel($gallons) { $this->fuel += $gallons; }

var paintCar($newcolor) { $this->color = $newcolor; } }

The class encapsulates all this information. To use this stuff you need to create a variable of type car:

$myCar = new car;

Doing this automatically calls the "constructor" function if one is present. The constructor is a function with the same name as the class (this rule varies a bit depending on your version of PHP; read the manual for details). In the constructor, certain variables are given default values and certain functions can be called if needed.

After that you can access variable data using $myCar->[variable name]. Functions are called the same way: $myCar->myFunction($myArgs);

Those are the basics. There's a great deal more to learn about OOP. If you really want to learn about OOP, get a book on C, C++ or Java. These are probably the three best implementations of OOP (and it really originated in its current form with C++).

I've written several functions with optional "string" parameters. They work fine. But I've never written one that accepts an optional "bool" parameter and I'm now confused.

I would like to have this: somefunction("hello"); somefunction("hello",false); somefunction("hello",true);

function somefunction($text,$xxx="") { if($xxx){ $xxx parameter was passed as true or false }else{ $xxx parameter was not passed } }

Which is correct for the default initialization of $xxx: $xxx=false; $xxx=null; $xxx="";

How do I distinguish between false and "$xxx parameter not passed"? Do I use isset()? Do I use ===?

Thanks.

Well, I guess I should have done some homework first. This code seems to work fine:

function somefunction($text,$xxx=null) { if(isset($xxx)){ echo $xxx ? "true" : "false"; }else{ echo "null"; } echo "\n"; }

somefunction("hello"); somefunction("hello",true); somefunction("hello",false);

It prints: null true false

which is what I want.

If $xxx isn't defined at all, its default is NULL, so your if statement should work as is. If $xxx is not defined, then you should get thrown down to the else. There is a difference between false and NULL.

Exactly. Java borrows from C/C++ a great deal, and they tend to look similar overall, but they are totally different languages.

PHP and Perl are much easier to learn if you already knew the other one fairly well, but the differences are vast. After learning at least the basics of seven languages, I'm ready to suggest we make one universal one :)

form passes to your php file

your php file checks the variables with the same name of that of the form fields.

you can then test htey have all been set accordingly

I believe he was asking how to actually verify them, but I could be wrong...

There are two ways to do it that are quick and painless. One involves matching with a regular expression (and since my regular expression knowledge is no longer up to snuff I won't even attempt to explain it in depth). The other is with the String functions. There are about 900 ways to do it with string functions. Here is a for-instance:

To verify that there is a in an email address:

$test = strpos($email, ""); // Test >= 0 if true, FALSE if false

You can also tokenize the string using the strtok() function and then compare both the user ID and the domain/host information to your desired conditions.

All in all. the best way is with a regular expression. However, you'll need to get help from someone else on that as I've forgotten most of the stuff about regex's. Spent too much time progrmaming other things :)

Assuming you know what your field names are, they get passed in to the PHP script as variables.

Using regular expressions you can check your variables for values you want/don't want. If they aren't what you want print an error message and tell the user to go back or something similar.

It's the same process as doing it with Javascript, except its after the user hits submit.

You wrote:

Define "load php4.0.6" exactly. Did you build PHP as a DSO (--with-apxs) or did you build it into httpd (--with-apache)? Did you install from an RPM?

Assuming Apache is installed in one of the usual places, and assuming you're on a Unix or Linux system..

What happens when you run:

$ `which apachectl` configtest

Does it say "Syntax OK"?

What do you get when you run:

$ updatedb

followed by:

$ locate libphp4 | grep so

If nothing there, do you see "mod_php4.c" when you run this:

$ `which httpd` -l | grep php

Find your apache error_log, do this:

$ tail -f /path/to/apache/error_log

Then in another shell start apache:

$ `which apachectl` start

Does the "tail" window say anything at _all_?

We need more information..

My opinion differs from Rasmus in this case - I think that most of the points he makes in his study are quite accurate and well analyzed. Be sure to keep current when the next release of PHP comes out - it's going to provide infrastructure to handle some of the more dangerous issues that Shaun pointed out.

Hey, I'd like users to be able to download images from on my site. The images are pretty big, so i've made thumbnails for each. I can display each thumbnail, but how can i get it so that once the user clicks on the thumbnail, they get to download the whole image. I'd like it to work without having the user to right click and choose 'save image as'. Any ideas?! Thanks, Heidi

With some of the newer broswers, you may be able to re-define the functionality of the context menu via JavaScript. Visit http://www.dynamicdrive.com; I think that there are some examples there, and you might be able to redirect the "save image as..." functionality there (I wouldn't count on it, though).

Another option might be to zip up the larger image as a zip file and create a link to that zip file through the thumbnail image. That way, when the user clicks on the thumbnail, they are prompted with a "save as..." dialogue box and they can then save the document on their own computer. They still have to unzip it though.

Other than that, I think you're out of luck. The problem is that saving an image onto a computer is a client-side function, which you can have no control over with server-side programs such as PHP or Perl. If you can come up with a way for a web page to mess around with the source code of Netscape or IE, then you might be able to do things like control the "save image as..." functionality, or disable the back button, but that seems pretty unlikely to me.

Compare what arguments you pass. Especially the second one. In the first example you supply your account name. That's fine. mysql_pconnect expects it in that place. The second time you use the table name instead of the acctname, so it tries to log in with username $MyTable, passwd $MyPassword

And unless you have a very weird setup this will always fail :)

So you want to share the array across *requests* That doesn't have *anything* to do with "global".

Have a look at how HTTP works - each request is an isolated execution of a PHP script. it doesn't have any idea of what other pages the user already looked at. To archieve your stuff you need session management (phpbuilder.com has a nice tutorial on this)

sorry, this might be a little bit off the topic, but I really hope you could help anwering this question.

It's pretty clear how to use web server to authenticate the users/groups, for example, if we are using Apache, the userID and password will be stored in the browser's cache, and be sent to the web server to do the authentiation whenenver a page is requested.

However, if the authentication server is not the web server, instead, it is a remote independent server. How can we manage the user authentications at the web server side?

Thank you very much in advance!

may be you can write a script (perl/php/*) which try to check/log/whatever on the remote user sending a login/password, so if it returns ok yo can use it to deny/allow the access to your local webserver.. it's like a kind of authentication proxy
