Hi,
I want to begin to use some of bug tracking systems. I think it can help me
with developing more robust applications and make an easier communication
with my clients. I have tried to use Bugzilla, but It was a little bit

Please help me to choose some....

Who are "they" ?

Do you mean the developers of PHP in general? Nope, no chance. We write
code, we do not manage world-wide certification programs. Something like
that would be a fulltime job for a whole team of people. Generally you do
it through partners who offer local courses and some sort of standardized
or approved certification test. The oversight of doing this on a global
basis is way beyond what any of us have time for and personally I find the
value of such certification programs extremely questionable.

attached mail follows:

Certification programs, imho, exist primarily for two reasons;

1. it allows developers with little experience to add credibility to their
claims that they know how to develop software.

2. it allows non-technical people involved in the hiring chain to make
judgements when they have no clue at all how to judge good technical
competence. Course, after you've been around a while, you learn that you
cannot do a proper job of judging anyone's competence, even after many hours
of interviews. The proof is in the project outcome.

3. Ok, I forgot the third reason... Someone will make lots of money selling
training materials and administering the tests. Did you really think
Microsoft got into this side of the business just to improve the quality of
technical consulting.

my 2 cents (ok, maybe 4 cents),

Hello all,

Thanks for the answers and opinions. If you all put it that way, it
really seems like certifications are just another way for big companies
to make money :) I was not looking for a PHP one as an option to replace
experience, in fact I've been working with PHP for about 3 years now and
have what I consider a lot (maybe not as much as some of you out there)
of experience with it and recently I got a full time job as a PHP
developer and couldn't be hapier with my job :). I was just curious why
the PHP developers or zend hadn't made plans for certifications, I guess
the reason is cleared now. Thanks all!.

I think you'll find related info if you try Google or the archives for

"hijack sessions"

And, talking about "hijacking", you just hijacked this thread which is not good.

That's exactly what you shouldn't do. Most newsreaders, and some email
clients, are capable of tracking the thread no matter what you change the
subject to -- by replying to an existing thread with a new topic, people
usaing those clients see your new message in the middle of the old topic
thread.

If you're posting a new topic, do it with a completely new message. (Why
not use your client's address book or nickname facility to give yourself an
easily-remembered alias for this list?)

Cheers!

This is true for your own authentication but I mean how to connect to the
database using md5. This would especially interest me with mysql since
this is the db I use most often.
THe problem is to store your password as a md5 hash in the database you
have to connect to it. As far as I know you can't pass the connection
password as a md5 hash .

You can't. However starting with MySQL 4 you can connect using SSL encryption,
but that would only be of significance if connection is remote.

I am swamped with work and need a php expert who is familiar with IC-Radius
to do the following project for me. If it can be done by Monday, I will be
willing to pay more. You must be able to accept payment through Paypal,
Yahoo Paydirect, or Check/Money Order. Project details are below.

This is a php or cgi script that listens on the proper ports for dialup
authentication requests and replys based on a DB either mysql or flat file
or whatever... just like Microsofts IAS radius server..

we have used this IAS but it is far to manual to be effective...hense this
script..

the radius script needs to be able to update its DB via a post to a URL or
networked to get from the main DB to the machine to be used to run this
script...

I.e..
ADDING...
http://radiusserver/radius.php or
cgi?action=add_user&method=post&radiusweb_username=ADMINUSERNAME&radiusweb_p
assword=ADMINPASSWORD&diapupusername=DIALUPPUSERNAME&diapupuserpassword=DIAL
UPPUSERPASSWORD

DELETING..
http://radiusserver/radius.php or
cgi?Action=delete_user&method=post&radiusweb_username=ADMINUSERNAME&radiuswe
b_password=ADMINPASSWORD&dialupusername=DIALUPPUSERNAME&confirm=yes

The Idea is that as we add and remove customers from the main DB it will
auto add and remove the dialup from the radius DB so customers can login or
not respectivly..

The main DB is Filemaker Pro and we have it running scripts to add and
remove 'post a url' in this fashion to an outsourced Linux box running
ICRADIUS..

We simply want to move this setup or improve it but to run inhouse on
Windows NT 5 machines.. running perl 5.x and Php 4.x

let me know if you are unclear or need more explination on the setup...

This is done with a JavaScript "OnLoad" handler:

<body onload="forms[myform].elements[pass].focus();">
...[page contents]...
<form name="myform" method="post" ...>
<input type="password" name="pass">

Guys,

Hope you can help, we are just porting one of our sites from Windows to
Linux and we are coming up with a
few funny problems with classes under Linux. This is code which works
perfectly on the Windows version of
PHP, we are running version 4.3.2 of PHP on both servers.

This is an example of the code which is causing a problem

===========================================================================

//check to see if the user has specified the file format they wish to
download
if (isset($variables['system_id']))
{
  //The file format has been specified setup the current download object and
also
  //run the security check against the database.
  $_SESSION['data_download']->back_office_system->system_id =
$variables['system_id'];

  if (!$_SESSION['data_download']->back_office_system->check_security())
  {
   //The user does not have security rights to access this object
   header('location: data_download_fileformat.php');
   exit();
  }

}
else
{
  //The file format must be specified before they can use this page, check
to see if the user
  //has already specified the file format, this may be the case where the
user has hit
  //the back button from the confirmation page
  if (!$_SESSION['data_download']->back_office_system->check_security())
  {
   //The user does not have security rights to access this object
   header('location: data_download_fileformat.php');
   exit();
  }
}

===========================================================================

This code generate the following problem

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: check_security() in
/home/atomic/public_html/data_download_xref.php on line 20

===========================================================================

The function does exist and when under windows does indeed check the
security !

The problem appears to be caused by classes having other classes as
properties, in the above code

$_SESSION['data_download'] is a instantiated class stored in the session

$_SESSION['data_download']->back_office_system is an instantiated class
created when the data download class is constructed....

I only get this error on the internet, on the website.. why is this?

I'm getting the error for line 531, 532 & 533 on global.inc .. this the

I've already searched through the Archives and I got many results.. I
read through each one of those but I can't correct my problem even so.

I'm using a simple function to login to the Admin section of a
site-index program.. using this function in a long and exhaustive
'global.inc' php page..

Over the course of the global.inc page, there's a lot of functions with
headers being passed.. none of them giving any problems. The only thing
unique to this function being the "setcookie" function..
I have not found any solution to this..

Secondly, why is it it's giving me the 'cannot modify headers' problem
on the internet server, but not on my computer?

Help still needed!

Obviously there is a difference in the configuration of the two servers.

1) Check the actual output returned to the browser (view source)

2) Check your error reporting settings in PHP, specifically you should disable
display errors and instead log them to a file.

Make ob_start() your first line of PHP code, and ob_end_flush() as the
last line of PHP code, place it on the server and test that. Your
global.inc.php is outputting a header on line 3. It is sending something
to the browser on line 3. What is line 3? If it is setting a cookie it
is outputting a header!

HTH!

What do you mean 'apart from'? That is exactly what the errors below are
complaining about.

And a search of the archives would have told you exactly what could cause that
to happen and how to solve it. But you've done that already though haven't
you?

Ok what you're saying made sense to me.. unfortunately the problem is
not going away.

I checked out my Directory.php file.. there's a bunch of HTML code that
is responsible for the HTML in that page before the PHP begins, and
before global.inc.php is included in the file.

As I started to erase lines of code.. I quickly learnt that in this
Directory.PHP file.. wherever there is Quote .. " ... it gives that line
in the Warning code..
For example.. the 3rd line of my Directory.php is ..

And thus I get this..

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by
(output started at /home/unbreaka/public_html/mjs/directory.php:3) in
/home/unbreaka/public_html/mjs/global.inc.php on line 531

If I remove the Meta tag there.. it takes the next line of code which
contains a Quote symbol.. which is quite necessary in our HTML tags..

So now how do I erase this problem.

This is where my php code begins in the directory.php file..

<?
include("global.inc.php"); //Change this if global.inc.php is in a
different directory

This is something like line 53 in my Directory.php file..
I inserted this include code line at the top of the Directory.php file,
but that didn't make any different at all. It was still taking the first
line with Quotes and putting up the warning based on that line.

Is there a replacement for Header that I can use in my function in my
global.inc.php page.. over here..

Which will do the same.. ? Just a thought.
And lastly, what qualifies for a White Character?

Well as this is an HTTP protocal layer setting, I'd guess it would have to be in your Web server configuration -- beyond that, I'm sorry I haven't a clue.

look into the sourcecode of your output-page, whether there is more
information (html-tags, i.e.).
and try var_export($_POST); instead of you echo to see what information come
with post.

maybe it's your server/php config. your code works for me.

Yes.

Yes -- using the wrong combination of PHP and Apache versions -- this is a known bug with less-recent versions of Apache 2 (not sure if the version of PHP matters, other than that only certain version combinations work anyway).

I suggest you upgrade to the most recent release of PHP, 4.3.2, (if you're not already running it) and the latest compatible version of Apache 2 (check the PHP manual and installation instructions to see what that is). Or upgrade to Apache 1.3.27 ;) -- Apache 2 is still considered to be only beta-quality (at least in combination with PHP).

Cheers!

Mike

When I var_export, I get the following information...

array ( 'wakka' => 'blueberry_muffinswakka=blueberry_muffins', ).

There is no further useful information in the HTML code at all. It's pretty
empty in there.

I've been studying my configuration, but to no avail at this point. I'm not
sure where to even look for this crazy thing. Thinking about clobbering and
stepping back a version or something of that sort. But I'm in pain. :)

how about this:

$pattern = "/<\[TIT2\]>([^<]*)/"; // matches anything exept '<'; till '<' or

preg_match($pattern, $string, $match);
var_export($match);

hint to your regex:
either use quantifier '*' (0-n times) OR '?' (0-1 times)

Hello,

  i can upgrade php from 4.3.1 to 4.3.2. I try to configure with the
  same command:
  ./configure --with-apxs=/usr/local/httpd/bin/apxs --enable-safe-mode --enable-bcmath --enable-calendar --enable-dbase --enable-ftp --with-gd --enable-gd-native-ttf --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local/ --with-png-dir=/usr/local/ --with-ttf=/usr/local/ --with-zlib --with-imap --with-mysql --with-mcrypt --with-mhash --with-dbm

With version 4.3.1 it works perfectly, but with 4.3.2 i got this
message:

configure: error: png.h not found.

How can I fix it?

AAhh, well, now that's a useful clue.

You've got a lot of near identical repetition -- once for each value in each
month array -- in the body of the loop; whenever I see this, my immediate
thought is "arrays!". You also store essentially Boolean values as
string-representations of integers(!), so here's my first reworking of your
code:

> <?php
> $height = "1";

Not sure why you have the >= 1 test here -- are you expecting to get -ve
values of $num to suppress the chart? And, in any case, why not:

for ( ; $num<=100; $num++)

          foreach ($value as $i=>$val)
          {
             $percent = ($a / $high) * 100;
             $color = $percent <= $num;
             /* I've switched the test round here -- seems to
              * me you were printing colour where you wanted
              * whitespace, and whitespace where you wanted

              */

Lose the above line if you use the "for" loop suggestion rather than "while"

> }
> ?>

Furthermore, it seems to me that you have no real need to save the values of
$percent and $color ('cos if you did you'd need to save arrays of them, not
just singletons!), so I'd collapse all of the $percent/$color code into the
if() test further down -- so you'd end up with:

          foreach ($value as $i=>$val)
          {
?>
             <td width="<?php print($width_bar); ?>" height="<?php
  print($height);
  ?>" <?php if(($a / $high) * 100 <= $num)
            { ?>bgcolor="<?php print($color[$i]); ?>"<?php
            }
  ?>> </td>

A couple of final observations:

(1) as written, this will produce vertical bars with 0 at the top -- if you
want zero at the bottom, you need to run the count in the opposite order,
from 100 to 1:

for ($num=100; $num>0; $num--)

(2) I feel sure there must be a method of doing this where you can just
calculate the size of bar required and then just display it all at once, but
I can't quite figure that out off the top of my head -- something to think
about, though!

Cheers!

Hiya,

It would be useful for me to be able to use a class within another class and
I don't know if that's permissable in PHP.

Here's an example of what I'm trying to do. Is it just simply not permitted
or am I going about it the wrong way?

Thanks in advance for any help,

Dave

Code follows:
=====================================================================

class CSSFont
{
var $family ='Arial';
var $size ='12pt';
var $style = 'none';
function Output()
{
   $out = "\n";
   $out .= "font-family:".$this->family.";\n";
   $out .= "font-size:".$this->size.";\n";
   $out .= "font-style:".$this->style.";\n";

return $out;
}
}

class CSSBorder
{

var $font1= new CSSFont;
var $font2= new CSSFont;
function Output()
{
  $out = $this->font1->Output();
  $out .= " other stuff goes here ";
  $out .= $this->font2->Output();

}

Is there a way to serve files with a different file
name than they actually have?
Here's my situation:
Users can upload software manuals, which are then
saved with a unique name. Their title, filename, type
and id are then save into a db.
But when they go to download a file, they'll of course
see a very cryptic filename in their save as dialog.
Lets say they aren't smart enough to change that name.

So would their be a way to serve a file with a
different name than it's actual one?

thanks,

Jay

On a un*x system you can use symlinks.

Otherwise you can have php handle the download, see archives for more info.

$r['name'] will be a string -- and so, therefore, will $level2[$i] be.

> $rst3 = sql_call("SELECT * FROM tmenu WHERE parent=".$r['id']);
>
> while ($a=mysql_fetch_array($rst3)) {
> $level2[$i][] = $a['name']; // giving error here

$level2[$i] is still a string, and the [] notation when applied to a string
selects an individual character -- but you haven't specified which
character, so this is an error.

Did you mean the first assignment to $level2[$i] to start a new array that
you later add to in the loop? In which case you might want to do

$level2[$i] = array($r['name']);

If you meant something else, you probably need to tell us exactly what it is
you're trying to do, so we can suggest accurate solutions.

Cheers!

First of all, I'd like to thank you all very much for helping me with my
arra-problem, array_count_values is exactly what i was looking for and it
is working perfectly! But.. print_r(array_count_values($array)) gives something
looking like this:

Array([computer] => 2 [harddrive] => 1 [crash] => 1)
etc..

I would off course like it even better when i was able to print to the values
(word and number) in an HTML table structure, or each new word on a new line
for instance, and without the [ ] and =>. Is this possible, and if so, how
do i solve this?

Thanks again for all you great help!!!!

See www.php.net/foreach

echo "<TABLE>\n";
foreach($yourarray as $word=>$count){
echo " <TR><TD>$word</TD><TD>$count</TD></TR>\n";
}
echo "</TABLE>\n";

Hello everyone,

I am trying to grab some data from a table in a database. Here is the
code I am using:

$myServer = "192.92.0.248";
$myUsername = "Admin";
$myPassword = "bluefish";
$myDB = "COMPANY";

$myUser = $_GET['user'];
$myPass = $_GET['pass'];

#print ("$myUser<br>$myPass");

$s = mssql_connect($myServer, $myUsername, $myPassword)
or die;

$d = mssql_select_db($myDB, $s)
or die;

$query = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE user = '$myUser'";

print ("$query");

$result = mssql_query($query)
or die;

$numRows = mssql_num_rows($result);

print ("$numRows");

When printing out the query the correct statement is being sent to
MSSQL. The variable $myUser does in face match what is in the database.
However when I print the variable $numRows I am getting a "0". So no
rows are being sent back - how can this be so when what is being sent to
the database does in fact match a record in the table. I am mostly
puzzled - PHP is set up correctly as I have been using this sort of
thing with other projects.

All help is very deeply appreciated.

Gary

Thanks a lot Jay

It seems that when a "password" type of form is used then you must send
the password variable to the database instead of the user...Strange but
it works !!
