Are CityIDs unique, like US-GA-ATL and CN-QC-MON or 214365 and 214387, or
is duplication possible? If the IDs are unique then adding duplicates
won't cause duplicate entries.

Check out array_merge and array_multisort to put the two together and
sort on the second key, respectively.

attached mail follows:

Consider the following code...

class A { function Go() { switch (isset($this)) { case true: echo 'Called Dynamically '; break; case false: echo 'Called Statically '; break; } } }

class B { function Go() { A::Go(); } }

A::Go(); $a = new A(); $a->Go();

B::Go(); $b = new B(); $b->Go();

My understanding is that the output should be:

Called Statically Called Dynamically Called Statically Called Statically

Yet the output is actually:

Called Statically Called Dynamically Called Statically Called Dynamically

Now my question is, is this what was intended?

It seems that if you call a static class from within a dynamic instance of a class, the static class then decides $this should reference the class from which the static class was called

Anyone else come across this?

It could be useful, but right now, its bloody annoying! I need a class to be called from within another clas, and it needs to know wether it has had an instance created, or wether it is being statically called, and now I'll have to write some kludge code instead...

You could check if a variable in $this exists:

class A { var $bla;

function Go() { switch(isset($this->bla)) { case true: echo 'Called Dynamicaly '; break; case true: echo 'Called Statically '; break; } } }

Or, if that doesn't work, you could do this:

class A { var $dynamic = true;

function Go() { switch(isset($this->bla) && $this->bla == true) { case true: echo 'Called Dynamicaly '; break; case true: echo 'Called Statically '; break; } } }

Or:

class A { var $dynamic;

function A() { $this->dynamic = true; }

function Go() { switch(isset($this->bla) && $this->bla == true) { case true: echo 'Called Dynamicaly '; break; case true: echo 'Called Statically '; break; } } }

Just some things you could try.

That doesn't make any sense and has nothing to do with Perl, since PHP will magically convert perl.pl to 'perl.pl'. I think you should do something like:

<?php exec('perl perl.pl'); ?>

Assumming you are on an Unix enviroment and Perl is installed.

Sorry, i didn't think of that. I still think exec('perl perl.pl'); does the job, not exec('perl.pl');

attached mail follows:

The first line of the script had the magic incantation:

#!/usr/local/bin/perl

(or something very similar) which makes the leading 'perl' superfluous.

PHP scripts can be made into "self executing" scripts in a similar fashion if the 1st line looks like:

#!/path/to/the/php/command/line/executable

This only applies to Unix and the executable bit must be set.

Hi Mike, I tried the first script you posted on the NG.

This is what happens when I copy and paste your script:

The formbox appears. I insert a number. I click submit. The number reverts back to 0.

The URL script that you sent me works fine.

I'm using MS Win 98/ Apache / PHP 4

Please advise if you get a chance if you know why I can't get this script to work. Thank you. Tony Ritter

Means php tried to access memory page address it did not have. Try to find out if it was php itself or a loaded module, then upgrade the offending part and see if it still happens again.

Hi,

I have a php file that set up a cookie that receives from a form and also uses it. My problem is the first time the value is submitted via form. The cookie is setup but I cannot not use it so I'd need to reload the web after setting up the cookie.

Myfile.php

if ($form_value != "0"){ setcookie("mycookie",$form_value,time() + 30660); // Web should be reload here; } $cookie = $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["mycookie"];

Any suggestion?

Thanks, Tackel.

attached mail follows:

You could use a header() with Location: but why do you need to reload the page? If you already have your data in $form_value then the data is already available to you.

If you are using a newer version of PHP (> 4.1) you can reference the information from the $_COOKIE array as well.

You could do this:

if ($form_value != "0"){ setcookie("mycookie",$form_value,time() + 30660); $cookie = $form_value; } elseif (isset($HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["mycookie"])) { $cookie = $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["mycookie"]; }

There are a number of other ways you could do it as well but that should help you think about it.

I've been scratching my head over the following code for a while now. It's supposed to check a given weblog for specific tags, and if they're present, update the weblog's table in my database. I believe the problem is around the execution of the db query, but I can't seem to get it figured out.

function is_news($address, $blogtitle, $host, $user, $pass, $dbname){ $f = fopen($address, 'r'); $read = fread($f, 20000); fclose($f); $title_start = strpos($read, "<BCtitle>"); $title_end = strpos($read, "</BCtitle>"); $title = substr($read, $title_start, ($title_end - $title_start));

$blog_start = strpos($read, "<BCblog>"); $blog_end = strpos($read, "</BCblog>"); $blog = substr($read, $blog_start, ($blog_end - $blog_start));

$link = mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass) or die("Can't connect to database"); $query = "update bloggers set cache='$blog', title='$title' where url='$address'"; if(mysql_db_query ($dbname, $query, $link)) { $is_news = 1; }else{ $is_news = 0; }

return $is_news;

}

Thanks a million for any help,

what appeared when you printed the text of your query: $query = "update bloggers set cache='$blog', title='$title' where url='$address'"; print $query;

I'm thinking that your single quotes preventd $blog, $title, $address form being expanded. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jesse Lawrence" <lawrence_jesseyahoo.ca> To: <php-generallists.php.net> Sent: Sunday, January 05, 2003 10:27 AM Subject: [PHP] Mysql update problems

So that other people don't have to scratch their heads as well could you tell us what the problem is?

No, the query is working fine... all variables are printing correctly. This is what has me confused. Everything seems to be as it should, it's just not updating the db table.

Then the problem is in MYSQL. to help determine this, ALWAYS--ALWAYS include the "or die(mysql_error())" as part of the mysql_query():

mysql_db_query ($dbname, $query, $link) or die("Error: cannot read table $query ".mysql_error());

When using the system() function, let's say starting up a program, can that program start in the background while the rest of the page is parsed or does it have to wait until the system command has finished whatever it is doing?

GD is not "standard equipment", a "special" version is just bundled in PHP source now. It sounds like you are using windows, this bundling has no affect on the windows distribution as it included all the pre-compiled binaries already, including GD's. In fact, I bet you already have a GD binary and just need to uncomment out in your php.ini but anyway 4.1.1 is old so you should upgrade.

Like with any version of PHP you download it and follow the install instructions.
