Didn't google hard enough :)
.pm5 application/x-pagemaker
I'd guess that can be extended to pm7 and 65 - I've seen x-pagemaker5 as
well.
pmd is also pagemaker according to filext.com, as well as some software I've
never heard of.
QXP is a good one, and you may need to ask the manufacturer of the software
what mime type is used.

I think too that application/pagemaker should work for .p65 and .pm7
as well as .pmd (Page Maker Document). I think .qpx is a Quark Express
document but I can't find the mime for that anywhere.

I didn't see this the first time, you should be calling:

And ensure that there is mime type defined in magic.mime for pdf.

Hi,
From the different PHP mailing lists archives i found
out that printing reports with the PDF is good
solution. Let me know if you guys know any better
solution for printing the reports.
Currently i am testing report module with the FPDF
library. My main goal is to print addresses
information of all the users. Now the critical part is
how can i set the page break if some user's record is
not completed on the particular page(Meaning, some of
the addresses information for particular user on the
first page and remaining on the second page). I would
like to set page break in the PDF when such kind of
conditions occur. Does any one know about it?
Thanks

Hello, mailing-list people, I need help about connect

When I execute this code, I receive this output:
DB Error: extension not found
NAME PHONE ADDRESS
I think that is a problem with the DSN in the
connection (oci8://system:managerlocalhost/orcl)
I put oci8 for the db type, user: system, pass: manager,
and db: orcl
I could connect oracle8i with PHP, but using ODBC methods,
I want now connect oracle8i through the PEAR library.
If someone know, please give me a hand, thanks.

Asunto: [SMARTY] Re: dreamweaver extension
It's not very clear what you mean with "dreamweaver extension for
smarty". Smarty in not a piece of dreamweaver. Smarty is a standalone
project, not made bi Macromedia.
Usully template files used by smarty use .tpl or .html extension. But
that is not something special related to dreaweaver.

I was recently involved in installing PHP 4.3.2 on a NT 4 server with IIS 4.
We followed all of the installation instructions, but whenever we tried to
run a test script through a browser to see if PHP was installed correctly,
all the page did was load. And load and load and load. It never displayed
the text it was supposed to, and it never errored out. Anybody have any
ideas?
I also had phpinfo run as a script through the server, with the same
results.

Unfortunately it seems PayPal has broke IPN processing for PHP users
recently. This is important news because a good majority of the people
using IPN with a PHP script are no longer able to automatically process
payments, and PayPal offers nothing to help PHP users who are having
trouble. In fact they claim that they changed nothing and that it is the
user's fault that it suddenly stopped working one day. The problem
actually is that PayPal now seems to require your IPN script to follow a
http redirection. After trying almost everything, within reason, to
avoid this redirection, it seems no matter whether you use GET or POST
and HTTP or HTTPS they force you to follow the redirect. The solution to
this problem is to use cURL so PHP can follow the redirection and thus
get the VERIFIED or INVALID response from PayPal. A new PHP class which
works perfectly with the current PayPal IPN (and should always work even
if they fix the bug) is available at http://www.scriptdevelopers.net. It
is a modified version of the class by Pineapple Technologies which is
commonly used all over the Internet and is a drop in replacement for
their paypal_ipn.php class. If you use a class named paypal_ipn.php,
then most likely you will need to get this updated version. The script
is licensed under the GPL.

Hi Fellas!!
Know of any good websites that would provide tutorials, step-by-step,
and/or a PHP scripts of creating a PDF, putting datas into PDF, along with
Printing PDF, Saving PDF files, etc... I have no experience with using PHP
and PDF so I need both a tutorial and quick, plain to the point of PHP
script of PDF stuffs. From there I can start reviewing on how it work, what
function is being used, etc. Then look at all of the available PHP
functions for PDF, add what I need or take out what I don't need, etc.
(Customize), etc...
Another question, does using PDF require the use of some configuration
in php.ini?? How does PHP do the PDF stuffs if there is no PDF on the
server? Etc...

You can lazily suppress errors on the fly like so
call_func();
the will suppress error messages being sent directly to the browser.

Of course doing multiple tests like this you are better off using switch
case...
Switch ($doWork) {
Case 0:
Exit;
Break;
Case 1:
DoOne($arguments);
Break;
Case 2:
DoTwo($arguments);
Break;
}
each number after the case statement is the value that $doWork will be
tested against.. look up Switch in the php manual, it's behavior can be a
bit weird especially if you forget to "break" if you don't break it's like
an OR statement/gate;

If you consider the average salary for a computer programmer is probably
$40k - $50k (at least in the US) this is not insane. (Heck, it's less
then a weeks pay -- even with the plane tickets). I assume this covers
hotel rooms (pricey), food (pricey), speakers (very pricey), etc.

I'm sure that, like most conferences and trainings, the assumption is that
people will attend who are either employed in the subject area -- in which
case they need to get their employers to ante up -- or are independent
contractors in the subject area -- in which case they need to treat it as a
legitimate business expense for tax purposes. It's not a "friends of PHP"

Unless I'm missing out on all the gold (which is a possibility), speakers
usually get a very modest honorarium and their expenses paid. I can't imagine
that speakers are the most significant cost of a conference.

Well most professionals who would go to this conference -- IMHO -- would
be doing it because it would be worth while. For instance, I considered
going because if it reduced the time it takes for me to develop software
by just 1% it would more then pay itself off.

Well there are a number of things to consider. It is a lot about what
you value and how you manage your money. (Pick up a copy of one of the
Rich Dad's series in your local library / bookstore to see what I mean).
> heh yea the average salary is 50K but then when the government takes 40% (if

(50000 - (.40 * 50000) == 30000)
That's a heckuva lot of money. Especially when you consider you
canadians have a cradle to grave socialist system that covers major
expenses for us from the US like healthcare. Of course, I don't know
your particular situation. What would be reasonable to you?

Well it does depend on the fame (or infamy) of the speaker. If you want
Bill Clinton to speak for you be prepared to cough up a couple hundred
grand. If you want somebody else well....::shrugs::
But remember that all expenses paid part. Let's say a meal costs $5 a
person (to be cheap). That's not a lot of money. But rooms can cost
upwards of $100 a night (probably at least $60 even with the discount).
So that plus food + everything else for the speaker can add up.
Of course, I haven't seen the finances of this conference. But I would
suspect that $495 is a reasonable price.

It's not about parenting but about money management. It's pretty cool
and shows you how to minimize taxes (so the govn't gets less then 40%).

No kids. Full time programmer. Putting as much away as possible and
hoping to retire at 40.

With 4 kids I can understand that.

I pay for health care and other things out of pocket. Socialism in the

Thanks to everyone for their responses, though I still have not

If anyone has any comments other than justifying the price of the

attend it would be greatly appreciated. I feel like I would
actually add value by being there, not only in supporting my
friends who are doing speaking at the conference, but also in
helping to evangelize php and help newbies with questions/fud/etc.
Thanks.

probably the easiest way is to just do this:
<?php /*
your mixed html and php code here
*/ ?>
that way php will take everything inside the <?php ?> tags and comment them
out, regardless of if they are html or php or whatever.

/* and */ appears to work:
<?php
/*
echo "hello world";
?>
HTML
<?php
*/
echo "bye";
?>
That'll just display "bye"... You just have to start the comment in PHP mode
and end it in PHP mode. Any breaking out of PHP mode to display HTML will be
commented out.
If you have mostly HTML with some PHP thrown in that you want to comment
out, HTML comments will work, also, so long as you start the comment in HTML
mode and end it in HTML mode, like this:
HTML
<!--
HTML
<?php echo "hi"; ?>
HTML
-->
HTML
Which will just display "HTML" twice. The center part is commented out.

Remove the chunk of mixed code and save it into an external PHP file,
e.g. mixed_code.php. In place of removed chunk, use an include() or
require() statement, e.g. include("mixed_code.php"). Now comment
that one line in or out as needed.

This won't work is your PHP code has comments using /* */ syntax in it
already. I always just through an if(false){ } around huge portions of
mixed content that I want to comment out. Unless you have unbalanced curly
braces in the chunk you want to comment out, it should work.

for temporary comments I do what jennifer does and use a if(false) block to
not execute it
<?php
if(false) {
// other php code
/* that has comments like this */
?><html code><?php
} // if false
?>

I don't know of any rule that says you cannot have two submit button in the same form.
Of course, if you need to know which was clicked, you will either need to name them differently or detect their values in your form processing routine. If the button is clicked that should take you to another form simply do a redirect (after processing all $_POST information);
header("Location: new page");
exit; // I always use this because processing continues after header

You can only use one form, as you've figured out. You can have PHP determine
the action for each button, though..
In a form with two buttons, say names "submit1" and "submit2", only one
variable will be set when the form is submitted, the actual button that was
clicked. So you can use logic like this in PHP.
<?php
if(isset($_REQUEST['submit1']))
{ echo "button 1 was clicked, act accordingly"; }
elseif(isset($_REQUEST['submit2']))
{ echo "button 2 was clicked, act accordingly"; }
else
{ echo "no button clicked, do not act accordingly?"; }
So this would be in "page4.php". $_REQUEST['someVar'] would be available
here.
Now, you want to redirect to "page5.php" if button two is pressed, right,
yet retain the value of $_POST?
if(isset($_REQUEST['submit2']))
{
$_SESSION['post'] = $_POST;
header("Location: http://www.yourdomain.com/page5.php");
}
Now, on "page5.php", to get $_POST back, just do:
$_POST = $_SESSION['post'];
That's assuming you have session_start() on each page and you don't have
anything in $_POST already on "page5.php" that you want to retain.

Then put someVal in both forms. When you submit a form, only the data in the
form will be sent to the server.

It works fine and I have no problems but today i found this.
When i call specific stored procedures it retrieve no rows, and if i paste

The function mssql_num_fields() shows correctly the number of fields.
The strange thing is that it was working a day ago (the same code).
Any thoughts?

I'm just taking a wild stab at this but maybe somethings changed with the
database structure.. try re-saving the storedprocedure so it will update
its cache.

Hi All
I have a website with a standard html form on it. Every now and then some jerk submits the form with some dirty words.
This is then seen by my clients which as you can imagine is very unprofessional.
I want to build a language filter but can't think of good way of doing in it.
The best idea I found on the net was to have a DB of dirty words.
Then when someone submits the form check their entree against the DB.
This seems a little labour intensive and won't work if someone submits something like youraf*&!head.
Any ideas?
Thanks

FROM S_CUSTOMER";
$q =$db->query($sql);
// message
if (DB::iserror($q)) {
die($q->getMessage());
}
//generate table
while ($q->fetchInto($row)) {

<td><?= $row[2] ?></td>
</tr>
<?php
}

</table>
</body></html>
When I execute this code, I receive this output:
DB Error: extension not found
NAME PHONE ADDRESS
I think that is a problem with the DSN in the
connection (oci8://system:managerlocalhost/orcl)
I put oci8 for the db type, user: system, pass:
manager,
and db: orcl
I could connect oracle8i with PHP, but using ODBC methods,
I want now connect oracle8i through the PEAR library.
If someone know, please give me a hand, thanks.
