Hello. I have been looking for a good php newsgroup reader for some
time. News portal looks pretty good to me but I haven't tried yet.

There is a very charming project "mynewsgroup" at mynewsgroup.sf.net,
particularly it has beautiful looking. But that project seems dead. The
only mailing list is removed, and nobody look into its forum. I wrote to
each developer about what is going on but none replied me!

What newsgroup reader do you use?

attached mail follows:

To read this list I use thunderbird:

   http://www.mozilla.org/projects/thunderbird/

It's an email client instead of a newsgroup reader. Just filter the
php-general messages into a separate folder and sort it by thread.
Super easy to use and a very nice piece of software.

Thank you! I'm definitely filing this solution for later use. Meanwhile,
I went back to trying the FTP_MKDIR method and found why that didnt
work. I realized when accessing the website via ftp that the system path
was different than the one displayed online. IE: my script path was
shown as /home/virtual/site... while in my ftp client I was seeing
/var/www/html...
Changing my path references to the later one fixed everything...so far!

Thanks for the help :)

attached mail follows:

MYSQL_FETCH_ROW returns an array of the values of the columns in a row. When
you try to use that value as, for example, a string or in a print statement
you get the word Array. What you probably want to do is the following (not
knowing your actual column names):

if (($value = mysql_fetch_array($result)) AND ($value['username'] ==
$username)) {

        echo "You are authenticated";

} else {

        echo "Your username or password is incorrect";

}

Subject: [PHP] $sring = ARRAY?

Why is it that in the following code that $value comes back with just the
word ‘ARRAY’ instead of the actual result?

if (($value = mysql_fetch_row($result)) AND ($value == $username)) {

        echo "You are authenticated";

} else {

        echo "Your username or password is incorrect";

}

Hi,

I agree that it's a bad practice not to use a wrapper but it seems most
people who use PHP took mysql for granted and haven't used any wrappers
in their code.

Anyway the kind of wrappers commonly used to help separate out
mysql/pgsql/mssql code probably will not be able to make full use of the
new features available in mysqli. There's going to be a hell of a lot of
conversion work ahead and not all of it can be automated.

Hello everyone,

I'm beginning to experiment with PHP sessions. I was wondering if it is
possible to place objects into the session?

Thanks,

Paul

Hello,

does anybody know a simply mailing function, which does
open a smtp connection to an mailserver, sends say 20 mails
with different bodies to that mailserver and than closes
the smtp connection again?

As I understand the standard php mail() function, that
it is doing quit that but of course sending only one mail.

Thanks very much.

Regards,
Juergen

You could always run the mail() command several times in a row and have it
include different $strings which contain different information for each
unique e-mail.

Not a problem. I think it doesn't work because you need to register for
a key on weather.com site now.

Thanks though!
