Hey people,
Something odd is happening :) I've this form on a page:
<form method=post action="\basics\quotation-add">

<th>Author
<td><input type=text size=30 name=author_name>
</tr>
<tr>
<th>New Category

<td><select name=category>
<?php
$categorias = mysql_query("SELECT DISTINCT category FROM quotations");
$lincat = mysql_fetch_row ($categorias);
while ($lincat != false){ //loop through the records enquanto ha linhas
$cat = $lincat[0];
echo "<option value=\"".$cat."\">".$cat ; //and place it in the select

</tr>
<tr>
<th>Quotation

<input type=submit value=Add>
</center>
</form>
And then I have in quotations-add:
echo $_POST['category'];
echo $_POST['new'];
echo $_POST['author_name'];
echo $_POST['quote'];
And what I get ist:

Notice: Undefined index: new in C:\Programme\Apache

Where the 'author_name' and 'quote' POST variables are ok, why aren't
'new' and 'category' coming?

Change 'new' to something else say 'new1' as new is an operator so that
might be causing the problem which in turn affecting the category also ..

Windowsitis? Mind your slashes.
Also, you should quote HTML attributes (though this isn't your problem). So,
try this:
<form action="/basics/quotation-add" method="post">
> <td><input type=text size=30 name=author_name>
[snip]

Same thing here. Quote your attributes.
Hope that helps.

I'm retrieving results from a MySQL database - they would be of the form
(form table 'usergroup'):
+----------+----------+
| username | group_id |
+----------+----------+
| tparker | 3 |
| tparker | 6 |
| tparker | 7 |
| tparker | 8 |
+----------+----------+
This SQL query is being carried out within another function that does a
query of the 'groups' table, and thus lists all groups. While listing
all groups, I want to check wither the current item to be listed is
equal to ANY of the group_id's in the result above (in other words, i'm
presenting the user with a list of group checkboxes, but with those
previously selected to be 'checked').
How is the best way to do this?
By using mysql_fetch_assoc or object for the 'usergroup' table result, I
have to check each item of the array for each item in the 'groups' list
- very inefficient.
How can I transfer the results above into an array such that I only need
to check $group_result->group_id against
$usergroup[$group_result->group_id] ? <-- I know that won't work
syntactically, it's an example only.
Or is there a better way of doing this? Is there a function that merely
asks if an item (say, '6') exists in ALL the results above?
Thanks in advance!

An alterative is get the data you need back from the database then
you just have one result to go through in php.
select ug.username, g.*
from groups g left join usergroup ug on (g.id = ug.group_id)
where ug.username = 'tparker';
+----------+---------------+
| username | g.id | g.name |
+----------+---------------+
| tparker | 3 | group3 |
| tparker | 6 | group6 |
| NULL | 1 | group1 |
if (empty($result->username)) {
// not in group
} else {
// in group
}

Hi All,
I've written a digital asset management system and my dilema is, to save a file from the sytem, i pass the files through a php script so i can change file names and keep the files out of the web tree.
I use a little popup window so they can select what format they want to download the file as, but the problem is when downloading a file it seems to halt the rest of the site from being able to do anything until the download is complete.
so i'm just trying to get the rest of the site to function while the download is in process, thank in advance. S.

This is a browser thing. So far as I know all browsers pretty much freeze

This is probably the problem. If you inspect your data, you'll
notice that it has extra characters in it right now. You can change your
protocol version to HTTP/1.0 or send a header to tell the server
you don't want chuncked (don't know that off hand).

A most amusing project has just come my way. I have a client who wishes to start an online matchmaking/dating service, one not unlike Match.com or Yahoo! Personals. There is a rather unique twist to this service, one that I cannot publicly discuss, but in general terms it is no different than any other such offering.
Is anyone aware of any pre-existing framework(s) for a matchmaking application? Perhaps someone knows of an article/tutorial regarding the design of such an app. I've no problem doing this from scratch, in fact the idea rather intrigues me, but I'm not one to re-invent the wheel if I can avoid it.
Thanks a lot to all those who respond.

I dunno, this seems like a php bug to me. The should only effect
the reporting status of the current line, not disabling certain

Yeah, I believe its a bug, as the only should affect the line in question
at that instance, then go back to what it was previously.
At least I think thats how it was supposed to work.
Ill file a bug report and see what they say...

Hey guys,
I was checking over one of my sites the other day trying to weed out the elusive notices that E_ALL turned up and I got some notices that I'm not too sure how to handle.
I know how to handle most of these errors however the ones that are snagging me up are the "Notice: Undefined index: _blah_ in _blah_." Most of these are array indices in super globals such a $_GET, $_SESSION, etc. How can I get rid of these little buggers?

The notice is basically saying that you are trying to assign a value to
a variable for an index that doesn't exist (so the value of the variable
can't be guaranteed).
One way is to verify that the index exists before you assign its value
to a variable. This is my favorite way :
$var = isset($_POST['key']) ? $_POST['key'] : NULL;
You might also want to check out extract() -- which does the same thing.
By the way -- pat yourself on the back for going with
error_reporting(E_ALL). Its one of the first steps towards effective
programming. :)

At the moment none of the line breaks are being submitted and inverted commas have slashes. I know the slashes can be removed using stripslashes function. I thought line breaks would come through with \n but that isn't being transmitted over the form. Can anyone help?
Best wishes,
Ian Gray

Hello,
I would like to draw text in a rectangle on an image.
The text must take all the place in the rectangle.
The trouble is that with imagestring(), there are only 5 fonts (1, 2, 3,
4, 5) and the bigger (5) is still too smaller for my rectangle.
Is there another way to change the size of the text ?
Thanks a lot

With this function is it possible to specify the size of the text with
width and height and not only with an integer ?
Because the size of the rectangle on which I want to draw the text is
various (I receive the size of the rectangle by parameter).
And other thing, I try to load a font to retrieve the width and height
with imagefontwidth and imagefontheight.
My code is like that :
<?php
$arial = imageloadfont('arial.ttf');
echo '<br>WF : '.imagefontwidth($arial);
echo '<br>HF : '.imagefontheight($arial);
?>
And the file arial.ttf is in the same directory as this script
But when I load the page, I have this error message :
Warning: ImageFontLoad: error reading font in....

==========================================================
1. If you have any queries/problems about PHP try http://www.php.net/manual/en
first. You can download a copy and use it offline also.
You can also try http://www.php.net/manual/faq.php to get answers to
frequently answered questions about PHP (added by Christophe Chisogne).
2. Try http://www.google.com next. Try searching for "php YOUR QUERY" and you
may be lucky to get an answer within the first 10 results.
3. Glancing through the list archive you can find many of the common topics
discussed repeatedly and can get your answer from those discussions.
There is a new searchable archive (launched on October 21, 2003) at
http://phparch.com/mailinglists, which provides a comprehensive and
convenient search tool.
4. If you are stuck with a script and do not understand what is wrong, instead
of posting the whole script, try doing some research yourself. One useful
trick is to print the variable/sql query using print or echo command and
check whether you get what you expected.
After diagnosing the problem, send the details of your efforts (following
steps 1, 2 & 3) and ask for help.
5. Provide a clear descriptive subject line. Avoid general subjects like
"Help!!", "A Question" etc. Especially avoid blank subjects.
6. When you want to start a new topic, open a new mail and enter the mailing
list address php-generallists.php.net instead of replying to an existing
thread and replacing the subject and body with your message.
7. PHP is a server side scripting language. Whatever processing PHP does takes
place BEFORE the output reaches the client. Therefore, it is not possible to
access the users' computer related information (OS, screen size etc) using
PHP. You need to go for JavaScript and ask the question in a JavaScript
list.
(You can access information SENT by the user's browser while requesting pages
from your server. You can get the details about browser, OS etc as reported by

Hello,
I generate an image with GD in the file generate_image.php
<?php
// generate_image.php
require('config.php')
require('functions.php');
require('secure.php');
header('Content-Type: image/png');
$im = imagecreate(15, 15);
// generation of the image
// ...
imagepng($im);
imagedestroy($im);
?>
But when I call this page in an image tag like this :
<img src="generate_image.php" border="0">
The image is not found (I have the small red cross).
If I drop the 3 lines (require) at the beginning of the page then it
works fine. The image is well displayed.
So I tought it was a problem with the headers, but I have verified, the
3 included files doesn't send any header.
That's very strange because if I have the 3 includes files in the code
and then I go direct to the location of the file generate_file.php (and
so I don't call it with a tag), then the image is well displayed.
Did you have an idea why the imaeg is not displayed when I call it with
an img tag ?

(Appology if this is been asked before, but I couldnt see it)
Hello,
First of all I had better say I don't think I am doing anything illegal. I
have over a thousand origional CD's, and would basically like not having to
swap the CD's etc. It's amazing some of the tracks I love but never play. I
end up playing the albums, and not the singles etc. What I basically would
like is to have a form of automatic jukebox on my computer.
So what I have done is made a MySQL database with all the Artist, Genre,
CD's and Tracks (including mixes). I have typed in all the information into
this, and checked it as much as possible.
What I would like is to put the music track in a blob field, rather than a
file. Is there someway that PHP can read the CD and rip the files??? Or
would I need to rip the tracks in a program, and then basically upload them
in a form? (The second option would take longer for me of course)
Now I could write some sort of C++ or Java program that uses this data and
plays the CDs with some fancy choosing of artists and genre etc. But can
anyone think of a way to do it from PHP? Someone said WinAmp had a command
line interface, perhaps send it tracks from a PHP file. Not sure if it
returns informaiton to PHP.
One thing I did think was learning the PHP-GTK, with this project as a goal.
But I know I can do what I want to do in Java, just not sure if there are
any good mp3 modules etc for PHP.
Any help would be appreciated!

The track itself? You mean the contents of the mp3 file?!
*shake head*
I don't know why you would want to do that -- other than probably giving
mysql and your hard disks a good workout, this will not lead to any
efficiency.

I'm going to entertain this idea just because I need a break from
babysitting my X emerge...
If you want to send the file -- I suppose you could stream it to Winamp
-- or use the command line interface to winamp and just pass it a file
through the browser. But again, why do you want to do this through a
browser? There are a few thousand mp3 ripping and cataloging programs
out there. Windows Media Player (with third party plugins) will also rip
Mp3s and catalog them. Winamp also rips and encodes. LAME is a very
good free ripper.

I know of a few that are for reading track information from mp3s, but
not one that does what you want. I suppose you can customize one of
those to your liking.
Tell me why you want to do this via PHP + Web Server + MySQL + Web
Browser again?

erythros and Burhan,
Thanks for the reply.
Basically I started putting my music into a program , and the program I did
it on didn't like the amount of tracks (kept crashing), and didn't give me
as many options as I would like. I'm not worried about a fancy interface and
graphical displays of the music.
What I could do is make a folder inside a folder with the artist name and
the CD, and then the MP3 files inside with the name (and possibly mix) as
part of the name. But what if the CD has music from different artists? What
if the program does not like a high number of files? What if the file name
gets to be more than 255 characters? What if I want to do something bit more
advanced with a catelouged set of data.
The last sentence relates to a project I did at Uni, to do with automatic
mixing between tracks. I realise the code I did then is copyright, but I
have a few ideas I want to try out. I sometimes do a bit of DJing at a local
bar/club, but for the first couple of hours we just play a couple of mix
CD's, before I get up and DJ. What I was thinking was letting the computer
DJ itself, and letting people using a simple interface select some songs.
But I would want to limit the type of songs, because some songs don't work
at certain times of the night. Just would be nice to have it all using
MySQL, so people can see pics of the artists etc. There are some quiet
nights where basically either mix cd's or the radio is used all night.
A database is there to hold your data, and basically display it in a format
when asked, that you asked for. (Ok not a dictionary definition). Basically
a file system is a simple database, but just to hold files. I know the load
on the server would be crazy, but I'm not worried about that. All I plan to
do at the moment is to output to a tempoary file, and then feed it into a
program such as WinAmp to play the file. I don't want to do any Streaming-
well perhaps some screaming!
Ideally there would be a software product out there to do all this, but I
don't think so, not with some of the ideas I have which I haven't even
listed!!! So is there ANY way from PHP to read a CD, rip the tracks and
place them in BLOB fields in MySQL? Or do I have to write something in C++
or Java? Just would be nice if there was something in PHP.
Thanks,
Steve

Just to give you something to chew on, try the code below.
<?php
$myResultsArray = array();
$numberOfRandNumbersToGet = 3;
$randomNumberRange = 20;
while(count($myResultsArray) < $numberOfRandNumbersToGet)
{
do {
$rand = rand(1, $randomNumberRange);
}while(in_array($rand, $myResultsArray));
$myResultsArray[] = $rand;
}
print_r($myResultsArray);
// If you really want $one, $two, $three for exactly three results:
list($one, $two, $three) = $myResultsArray;
echo "1: $one\n2: $two\n3: $three\n";
?>
It is slightly more generic, and you can change things a little
without having to modify a whole bunch of if() statements.

Subject: [PHP] Randomizing 3 different numbers.
I am tring to output 3 different random numbers between 1
and 20 into 3 different strings. Using Rand() for each
string isn't sufficient as I may get the same number
repeated for one of the other strings- eg 1,1,3 or 5,3,3 .
It's important that I get three different numbers outputted
into for example $one, $two, $three.
Can anyone help?

are
probably run php as an Apache module. However, I am currently using my

I am having problems sorting stuff into an array. It doesn't seem to work
quite how everything I read says it should. It is probably my understanding
of it but either way I don't really know whats going on.
I am trying to put everything out of a table into an array so I can call up
the individual rows by a sequential number and then the information in each
row by a colume heading. so for the name value in row 1 I want to have
$null[1][name].
The purpose of this is to amke a menu system where it automatically sorts
the rows into the relevent order. The parentid associates a row with another
to signify that it comes under that menu heading. I want it to have 3
levels, so I have included 3 loops all looking for data whos parent id is
the same as the previous ones id. If that makes any sence.
But when I run this script, it looses the first row and doesn't really
output anything logical. For now I have commented out 2 of the loops to try
and make it easier to see where I have gone wrong.
To see what output I get http://www.busc.net/bristol/website/admin.php is
the code that I have included underneath.

Without going too deep into your code, I think I see (parts of) your
problem.
In a nearly similar case, I used this code to deal with the problem.
// This example is putting the data from a table into a 2-dimentional
array:
// When using mysql_data_seek(....) you have all the selections from the
query in an array, an you can point to which row you want at any time.
// Remember: the rowpointer "row_num" starts at 0 and runs to "max_rows" -
1.
$query = "SELECT *.....
$max_rows = mysql_num_rows($result);
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$row_num = 0;
$ix = 0;
while ($row_num <= $max_rows-1) {
mysql_data_seek($result,$row_num);
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$ix++;
$array[$ix] [1]= $row[1];
$array[$ix] [2]= $row[2];
$array[$ix] [3]= $row[3];
$row_num++;
}
Hopes this helps a bit.

GET (see your question) or POST....not that it matters.

Newbie question - please excuse. I'm using Dreamweaver to generate most of

hmm.. what part of line 4? take the php line and put it on 4
different lines
$vManufacturer_rs_RobesonResultsList =
(get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ?
manufacturer :
addslashes(manufacturer);
What line is the error on now? line 6? ah.. so what exacly is
manufacturer? A variable, constant, string or number? I'm going to
make the assumption that it is a variable. So you need to prepend a
$ to the word manufacturer ($manufacturer).
If you test it now, you'll probaly get a notice/warning about line
7 (depending on php's error_reporting level). You'll probably want
to make that manufacturer a variable also.

I'm assuming that 3D was put in there by some faulty mail client? Also, make

Well, that sounds like what you are trying to do? What is wrong exactly? Not
every error is the fault of register_globals, after all. :-)

You need to explain what is wrong. You seem confident that register_globals is
your problem, but you've not told us why you think so.

Use curly braces:
