They usually use read only DBM like databases that do not have the
overhead or parsing SQL or doing joins to fetch the data.

Weel, I work as a consultant on development of a similar system for Italian Government. (instead of Social Security numbers it handles all territoric matters and related payments, ownershipd to it... etc ...). BTW: software is interfaced via PHP.

In this database, we have over a few billions of records in some few thousands databases hosted on some few hundreds servers physically located in some few dozens of regions of Italy.

We use Oracle for it. And, neigher Oracle does magic here. The system is deeply thought and organized in all its details. Nothing is left for "a case" and everything is very well monitored and backed up. (not mentioning the synchronization methods).

In my experience, mySQL has always failed performance-wise (when not crashed complitely) while trying to keep on a database consisting of 1.000.000+ records.

For large DBs I would reccomend you PostgreSQL as it has, in my own opinion (and not to start a new thread here) a better ralational mechanism, which is crucial (as Manuel mentioned) to design the right logic within your application.

TIP: look for repeating data in your DB, and try to "compress" it somehow. Try to see if you can split and reuse the records. Add more supporting tables and so on....

Generally search egines use various hash algorithms to store their data, such as B-trees, Hash Tables, etc... Even that, is not enough when dealing with an extremely large dataset, in which case expensive hardware is used to provide the necessary IO capacity to allow for fast look ups. If you are trully interested in how search engines do this, there are plenty of articles describing Google's setup in terms of hardware.

As far as fetching data from large MySQL databases it is not impossible or slow as some people claim. I have a 4 million record database in MySQL that is routinely accessed and most queries on that table are completed in 0.01-0.03 seconds, speed mostly depending on the number of rows retrieved. Keep in mind that your system and database configuration will play a very large role in regard to performance once you go beyond a certain amount of data.

Well, to answer my own question, I found a decent tutorial on using sessions with the new register_globals off here:

http://www.wdvl.com/Authoring/Languages/PHP/Maintaining_state/session_variab les.html

Anyone want to share any tips on how to deal with form vars passed to a script with register_globals turned off? Do you simply refer to them directly with $_GET['var'] or do you initialize vars locally that contain all the $_GET vars?

Thanks.

Well I usually choose to POST forms, not GET them, but yeah, I just deal with the vars as $_POST['var'].

If I'm referencing the vars a LOT, I make regular $vars out of each element in the POST array:

$myvar = $_POST['myvar'];

If there's a lot of them, I do it with a foreach loop... something like:

<? foreach($_POST as $key => $value) { $$key = $value; } ?>

...will do the trick. It achieves the same as register_globals, but only from one source, the POST array.

Thanks for the tips, Justin. Sounds like a good idea.

Do you, or anyone, know if the $_POST vars stay defined even after moving on to another page? Do I also need to unset $_POST after passing the vars each time?

Use strpos() to find the position of the first space then substr() to extract from beginning to the space.

Knowing exactly where your variables are coming from ensures the integrity of your code and protects it from malicious users feeding it bogus values.

If the variable is: 0, null, not set or an empty string. Then the empty() will return true.

It's unnecessary to call isset() first.

AFAIK, you compile it for Windows. I was also told that is a major headache.

Anyway, don't despair, it seems that some developers are working on providing already compiled PECL extensions that can be automatically downloaded.

This is the same as with MySQL. MySQL is free under GPL but has no subselects because the companies that has commercial licenses didn't wanted that - Monty has to eat and he codes other features. IMO Zend must exist and this is only possible by selling its products. If the company we work for has the money to buy Zend Accelerator licenses why not do that instead of using other Open Source accelerators.

My 2 cents.

And don't we all? That is the main problem. If we need to pay USD $3,000 to be able to compile our PHP programs, doesn't that make not viable for most of us to sell our PHP programs as closed source?

If there is something that Zend people do not have a problem that is to be able to eat from their work. Just recently they announced a USD $300,000 deal, which where I live lets many eat for many years.

> IMO Zend must exist and this is only possible by selling its products.

I only agree with the first part. It is not true that selling products is the only viable way for them to survive. Your MySQL example is good because they have been leaving from consulting, training and certification.

> If the company we work for has the money to buy Zend Accelerator licenses > why not do that instead of using

That is your decision. Zend people have publically declared that they are targetting high-end customers. Their pricing obviously rules out the majority of us for which their prices are simply unaffordable, especially if you have to pay them over and over again if you want to use them every year.

Since we are not idiots, if we have Open Source solutions that solve our problem, why do you think that paying those fortunes to Zend would be a better idea?

I think their business model makes sense to make their company viable, but that should be at the expense of those that can't afford their prices. Let those that believe that expensive software is a better solution from them then Open Source, to make Zend company viable.

Also, Zend uses a subscription based licensing which is what Microsoft is shifting their licenses too. I am not saying that is wrong, I just say that it is not acceptable for most of us to stay in the dependence of Zend to keep our software running every year. If you agree with the licensing, it is your problem.

If you ask me, I see very little point in what you say. You just made it sound as if Zend people are the only ones working on the development of PHP.

The way I see it PHP lacks mostly of extensions that address real world problems of many people like: interfacing with Web services via SOAP, compiling PHP scripts to protect so we can generate closed source standalone executables, multi-threading support, generating GUI applications, interfacing with the user management and authentication system, etc..

Zend people are not working on anything like this as they don't agree it is important for PHP or for their business that is all that matters to them.

As a matter of fact the only thing that Zend people have been working on PHP itself is Zend engine 2. Last time that I looked, Zend engine 2 is mostly a thing that was developed to make PHP more like Java. If I wanted that, I would probably be using Java instead. I am afraid that is only helping to remember more and more users to switch to Java.

> My 2 cents.

Actually that should be worth many times USD $3,000... for Zend of course. :-)

Everyone understands that Zend has to eat, but so do most of us small developers. I have no problem with them charging for their products. IMO they would make more money if the pricing for the encoder would be less. This is a fundamental feature that most of us need. I would offer a Pro version of the Zend Studio and bundle the encoder with it for abou $500. This would enable Zend to capture a significant market share among PHP developers withoug breaking the bank.

Just a thought...

There is a free php accelerator so I don't know why you would pay for one. www.php-accelerator.co.uk

The same guy (Nick) has also just made an encoder. It is in beta testing right now and there's no windows version yet but that should be coming soon. I think it's like $0.50 to encode your program which is much more affordable. http://www.php-encoder.com

I think the problem with zend is that they have put up the guise that php is an opensource project but to actually use it in production you had to pay several thousands every year for the accelerator and the encoder. It kinda feels like a bait and switch to me which is why I personally think zend is bad for php. Just do a search for jobs for asp, cf or jsp. There are a ton of jobs for these languages and you would be lucky to find one for a php developer. So zend rakes in the money and does no real marketing with that money for php is the way I see it.

You'll never hear anything from the core php group since they are a tight click so it's business as usual. Now that Nick has released the free accelerator and an inexpensive ($0.50 per shot) encoder it might change but I don't know if it's too late.

include() can return a value, assignable to a variable. Some other ways to get the content of a file (I assume that's why you're saying "include") into a variable: file(), fread().

eval() can execute the value of a variable as PHP code.

http://php.net/include http://php.net/file http://php.net/fread http://php.net/eval

Hi there,

I am searching for a way to track advertisment, clickrates on my site. So I tryed out phpadsnew http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpadsnew/

Unfortunatelly the current beta 7 works only with register globals set to on. I cant install it in this case, because my application requires this to be off.

Has anybody a good recomendation on another software to track adds?

Thank you for any hint on that.

You can track ads with phpAdsNew also remotely, not necessarily via view() function.

Hi,

I am am writing a function to color code and indent JavaScript source using regular expressions and cannot seem to get back referencing working. The pattern match is successful but the output is a single unrecognised character (a square).

$string = eregi_replace("<(/?)(scr[^>]*)>", "«font color=maroon»\1«/font»", $string);

This results in opening and closing <script></script> tags being replaced with a square being wrapped in font tags. I have this working in Cold Fusion but cannot seem to convert my scripts to PHP. Can anyone help?

TIA

If you're trying to get <script>Lots of javascript</script> to look like <font color="maroon">Lots of javascript</font> then this will be a start

$string = eregi_replace('<(/?)(scr[^>]*)>', '<\\1font color="maroon">',$string);

This will produce - <font color="maroon">Lots of javascript</font color="maroon"> - not perfect, but a start.

What's strange is that doing an ord($string) returns 171, which is a '1/2' char. So why does PHP convert the pattern match??
