It's because of the "return false": that means "after running the checkemail
function, cancel the form submission".
I think you want to have your function return true or false depending on
whether the email address is OK, and take the return out of the onsubmit
handler.
Don't forget to validate the email address on the server as well, otherwise
people who turn off Javascript will be able to submit dodgy data.

Hi Meltem,
Since you place return false in the onSubmit code, you cannot submit the
form to the next page. What you need to do is that check if the email field
is empty, if yes return false; if not return true.

Yes. You need to have the "return true" or "return false" in the javascript
function that checks the email.
function checkEmail(email)
{
// do the check however you like
// create a variable called "check"
// that's either true or false,
// then do something like:
if (check) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}

Two options:
(1) Leave your onSubmit as is, and put a form.submit in the checkemail
function once you've "validated" the address.
(2) Change the onSubmit to onSubmit="return checkemail(email.value)" and
have checkemail return true or return false according as it does or doesn't
"validate" the email.value passed.
Cheers!

I have two fields of type date in a MySQL table called training:
start_date
end_date
I can format the date using a select, for example
SELECT
DATE_FORMAT(start_date, '%M %d, %Y') as start_date,
DATE_FORMAT(end_date, '%M %d, %Y') as end_date
FROM training
This produces the following:
start_date: September 16, 2002
end_date: Sepetember 20, 2001
Based on the above, I would like to echo out something like this:
You will be in training September 16 - 20, 2002.
Is this possible?
Thanks in advance,

SELECT
CONCAT(
'You will be training ',
DATE_FORMAT(start_date,'%M %d'),
' - ',
IF(MONTH(start_date)!=MONTH(end_date),
DATE_FORMAT(end_date,'%M %d'),
DATE_FORMAT(end_date,'%d')),
' ',
YEAR(end_date))
FROM training
Another option would be to just select out the individual month, day,
and year out of the database, instead of a formatted date. Or select out
a unix_timestamp and use date() to extract the individual parts and
create your string...

('binary' encoding is not supported, stored as-is) Monique,
By default Debian does not come come with a recent JVM, due
to the non-free-ness of Sun's license.
So first thing is to see if you have any Java installed at
all... When you type `java` at a shell it should give you
an error about missing parameters... if you get the following:
bash: java: command not found
then you need to install a Java package for PHP4 to work with.
The most useful Java package for Debian, is blackdown.org's
non-free port of Java, do the following to get it do the
following:
to /etc/apt/sources.list add:
# JDK -- mirrors http://www.blackdown.org/java-linux/mirrors.html
deb http://www.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.blackdown.org/ja va-linux/debian
woody non-free
then run:
apt-get update; apt-get install j2sdk1.3
Once you've installed Blackdown's port of Java, your java.home
var should be set (you may have to log-in again or reload your
profile to see it).
good luck,
-Garth

I'd like to play with using java classes from within php, as is
described in http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.java.php ... I'm using the
apache and php4 packages from the debian testing distribution.
All of the documentation I've found on the web about installing the java
extension seems to be oriented toward windows, making me think that
maybe I don't need to specify an extension library on linux?
I tried simply using
ini_set ("java.home", "/usr/local/sun-j2sdk1.4.1");
$systemInfo = new Java("java.lang.System");
and got the following:
Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: java
That seems fairly straightforward: My php doesn't know java from adam.
So my questions are: Do I need to get an extension library for this
functionality on linux? If not, does anyone know of a debian package of
php4 that will give me this capability? I rather like being able to use
packages wherever possible.
Thanks in advance for any insight!

Unprintable!!
There's no point in returning a value if there's no sensible value to return.
Confusion can arise because PHP uses "function" for what, in some other languages, are distinguished into "functions" (which must return a value) and "subroutines" (which cannot). Anyone insisting that a function must return a result have probably been exposed only (or primarily) to such languages ;-Z !!

Won't the server ask for authorization if the included PHP script is in an directory accessible with .htaccess-Authorization? Oliver
attached mail follows:
Oliver,
I think I see your question. You are wanting to know if people can see *your* PHP code (it sounded like you were asking if you could read PHP's source code, which is why people responded like they did).
I think another poster mentioned this, but the safest thing to do with your database access information is to store it in a separate PHP script outside of document root. This ensures that there is no way to access it from a URL. Then, you can use include() from your script(s) that need to connect to the database to include the access credentials.
I think your question is whether you can see the source of a *.php file from a Web browser somehow, right? I'm not aware of any type of vulnerability that can allow this, once your Web server is setup to recognize these scripts as PHP.
A possible source of your concern is that many people mistakenly store included modules under document root, name them *.inc, and don't configure the Web server to deny requests for a resource with a .inc extension.
The best solution, even for this case, is to store your included modules outside of document root. This way you don't depend on access restrictions implemented in the Web server, nor do you have to worry about people executing your modules out of context (a danger, possibly greater danger, that exists when you simply name your modules *.php as a quick fix).
Hopefully that explains some of this a bit more.

All,
I have a page that displays results of a database search. The page contains a select dropdown box from which the user can pick different options including the ability to download an Excel or CSV file of the displayed results. Once the user selects an option from the dropdown, a Javascript onchange method will kick in, submit the form and process the selected option. If the option is one of the file download choices, then using Javascript a new, child window will be opened and the location of the child will be the PHP download script with the file to download. The script in the child window will force the browser's download dialog box to open up at which point the user can save, open, or cancel the file download. The issue that I have is that some browsers (IE6) will automatically close the child window when the user has made a selection from the download dialog box while other browsers (Mozilla) will leave the child window remaining open. I need to either come up with a way to close the child window once the user has finsished with the download dialog or force the download script to not run in a child window. I've thought about applying a timer somewhere but this isn't reliable because of the unknowns of file download time and user response time to the download dialog. I don't have a preference as to whether the solution is all PHP based, all Javascript, or a mix of both -- I just need a solution to close this child window when complete.
Code is below. As usual, thanks in advance.

The PHP coders are still working to have full compatability with apache 2.0. I know for example posting one variable in a form messes up, but posting 2 or more variables works fine. There is a entry n the bug database about this, so hopefully it will be fixed soon.

Apache 2 isn't officially supported yet. If you get the latest version of both then you shouldn't hit to many hurdles but you should know that you'll get no official support and it isn't recommended for production environments.
If you need Apache2 then you'll know why - if you don't know what the advantages are, you'll probably be better off with Apache 1.3.26 anyway.

Well, unless they hide the 2.x compatible version.

From today's Apache week newsletter:
"the Apache 2.0 interface is still undergoing steady change, "
Don't expect to see a stable PHP for Apache 2 until the interfaces stop changing with almost every version. There is great work being done on PHP for Apache 2, but it seems to need to be updated with every new version of Apache, and they are coming out fast and furious.

wildcard in SQL is %, so your query looks like:

What about turning these long processes into perl scripts or C programs that can be exec()ed? They'll probably run faster, and they won't time out.
I've never done this myself. It's just a suggestion -- does it make sense to do it this way?

Sounds like a DB issue. Select your entries from your DB then loop through the result set with the same filtering mechanism.

Seems like a waste of resources. Why not do the filtering with the SQL query? Why are you selecting out more than you need?

Hi Fellas!
I'm a little bit confused as to why does this not work right! It had to do with the odbc_fetch_row() function. When there is two or more rows, the odbc_fetch_row() return a True. When there's no row, the odbc_fetch_row() return a False. What so odd about it is when there is one row, odbc_fetch_row() return a False. It should return a True. This doesn't make sense. Is this a bug? Have anyone encountered this problem?? What is the workaround to it?
Thanks!
--clip-- $cid = odbc_connect('blah blah'); $ask7 = "SELECT * FROM INQUIRIES"; $R7 = odbc_exec($cid,$ask7); $result = odbc_result($R7,1);
while (odbc_fetch_row($R7)) { odbc_fetch_into($R7,$inquiry,$inq_c); echo $inquiry[0], $inquiry[1]; } --cilp--
attached mail follows:
Found the workaround to the problem.
It had to be a PHP bug because odbc_fetch_row() should return true if there is 1 row, not false. I also file a PHP bug at bugs.php.net, the bug number is 19528.
Here's the workaround I made, I added "$bug_workaround" to the script.
--clip-- $cid = odbc_connect('blah blah blah'); $ask7 = "SELECT * FROM INQUIRIES WHERE USER_ID = '38SCK3'"; $R7 = odbc_exec($cid,$ask7); $result = odbc_result($R7,1);
echo "Result or No Result??? --> ".odbc_fetch_row($R7);
$bug_workaround=0;
//while (odbc_fetch_row($R7))
while (odbc_fetch_row($R7,++$bug_workaround))
{
odbc_fetch_into($R7,$inquiry,$inq_c);
echo $inquiry[0], $inquiry[1];
}

Hello!
I'm fairly new to PHP and absolutely new to this mailing list.
I subscribed and I'm writing because I observed some strange behavior with array_merge_recursive(). I'm using PHP version 4.1.2. Please look at the following code:
$a = array('k' => array('a1')); $b = array('k' => array('b1')); $r = array_merge_recursive($a, $b); echo count($a['k']), '<br>'; echo count($b['k']), '<br>';
This will print 2 1
Apparently $a['k'] has been merged with $b['k'] and $a['k'] has been set to the resulting two-element array. I did not expect this behavior: I expected the function to make a new array, which contains both 'a1' and 'b1'. Only $r['k'] should refer to this new array.
Otherwise, in my opinion, array_merge_recursive should not return a value, just modify the first argument.
Should I file a bug report about this?
Thank you,

Yes, and that's the good part. The bad part is that $a is affected (try print_r($a)). I don't think it should be.

Ahh I see what you mean. Yes that doesn't seem right does it. The function is passing the parameters by reference and affecting them as well as the return value. I don't have a solution for this apart from just being conscious of it and setting the unmodified arrays to new variables before using the function.. or rolling your own merger function. :-\ -Kevin

I'm working with the socket_* function (--enable-sockets) and have been seeing some wierd issues. I'm guessing it has to do with socket_recvfrom/sendto etc not being binary safe. This is 4.2.3 on FreeBSD 4.6.2.
My question is: what functions, specifically socket_* functions, are binary safe? How can I tell? When will they be?
And, while we're on the subject, in general, are PHP functions binary safe? Should I assume functions aren't binary safe unless noted otherwise - or should I assume the inverse?
If anyone could shed some light on this, I'd appreciate it.

Don't assume either way, especially since sockets are currently experimental. If you're worried it isn't binary safe, you could base64_encode() and base64_decode everything... Extra bandwidth, but at least it will work.

Hrmm...
Well the base64_* bit would work for the payload, but I'm working with raw sockets (ICMP at the moment) and of course the header needs to be really binary.
Are the socket_*() planned on being binary safe in the near future? Anyone do traceroute/ping in PHP yet?

Now, how the heck do I script so that I get 3 pictures in a row, in separat colums and adding a new row so next 3 pictures get the same formatting?
I looked into array_chunk() but I cant figure out how to use it? should i split $pic_out and use a foreach on that array? or just $nr=count($pic_out); and then run an if-statment to see if I get it out...well I hope u can give me some help cuz this is driving me mad

I am posting this message to the php.general newsgroup because I used php to construct the dynamic portion of our site and because I value the opinions of many people who frequently post here. I hope that this will not be viewed as off-topic --if it is, I will take it elsewhere.
At affero we are beginning to think in terms of publishing certain data to whomsoever might wish to use it for whatever reason. Here's a first cut attempt to provide such a service:
http://pws.affero.net/hof/topPatrons
returns an HTML <table> ... </table> structure suitable for use as, say, a server side include.
Another kind of data which we might publish is what we refer to as a 'dense reputation' or a 'reputation summary'. For an example of a dense reputation you can point a browser at this URL
http://svcs.affero.net/user-history.php?u=Poole
the dense reputation appears highlighted after the user id on the top line of the page.
One of the things that concerns me lately is how to make data such as these available as widely as possible.
I have looked in to RSS for a few days and, while I am somewhat confused, I have begun to come more or less to the conclusion that RSS is employed mainly for syndicated news feeds and probably is not appropriate for publishing tabular data and short strings.
Maybe some kind of procedure call mechanism, eh? SOAP and XML-RPC seem to be competing technologies, though. If we support one of them, how many sites will be excluded from accessing the data which we wish to make available? Should we support both?
XML seems attractive because it can be styled into so many different kind of presentations, but I just can't tell if this would be appropriate.
I was wondering if anyone might be able to share thoughts or opinions or experience related to such issues.

You can try sending Content-Type: text/html\r\n to see if that helps, otehrwise the mail client may be set for text-only.

Hello, I am trying to find a string in another string with mysql. Normally, this would work.
select 'foo' REGEXP ('foo');
And that would simply return 1, since it found it. But, my strings are more complicated than that. One good random example is something like this..Ya i know, its wierd but go with me on this.
ok/2.0 (hah 3.0; BAM oh 5.1; .hi CLR 1.0.4725)
so you would do a select like..
select 'ok/2.0 (hah 3.0; BAM oh 5.1; .hi CLR 1.0.4725)' REGEXP ('ok/2.0 (hah 3.0; BAM oh 5.1; .hi CLR 1.0.4725)');
That of course doesnt work. All of the () 's, and /'s, and .'s, mess it all up. And suggestion on what to do? any function to convert all of the special regexp characters ()[];.^*$ etc to work correctly?
Thank You, Taylor York

Not that familiar with MySQL's flavor of RegEx (and the documentation seems to be extremely bad ... or at least I can't seem to find any with casually searching) but have you tried escaping the RegEx special characters? eg

Even though I have no record in my MySQL DB with that has "005" in the ID field, the following statement always reverts to Record Found, or True, no matter what ID I use. What's wrong? I'm using PHP 4.2.2. Has something changed that makes this work differently? Thanks.
--------
$query = "SELECT id FROM member WHERE id = 005"; $connect = mysql_pconnect("localhost", "dbname", "password"); $result = mysql_query( $query, $connect ); // Query DB. if ( !empty($result) ) { echo "RECORD FOUND"; } else { echo "RECORD NOT FOUND"; }

Could be wrong, but the fact that $result isn't empty doesn't mean there are rows... it would be better to say:
if ( !empty($result) ) { echo "VALID QUERY"; } else { echo "INVALID QUERY"; }
Although you should probably check $result against TRUE and FALSE instead.
If you want to know how many rows have been returned use mysql_num_rows() (or something very close to that).
good luck!

attached mail follows:
you should use mysql_num_rows() to check for records returned instead of using mysql_query().
this is because if $query is a valid $sql statement, mysql_query() will always return a resource link. which evaluates to true.
so this will work for you:
if (mysql_num_rows($result)) echo "record found"; else echo "record not found";
