I am sure that someone has had a problem like this, but if you believe

try this

preg_replace('/(weather)/i', "<strong>$1</strong>", 'This is the worst
weather ever. Weather around
here is terrible. ')

Thanks Matt. I think that will do the trick. Let me see if I
understand it correctly. the "i" will make the search case-INsensitive,
and the parenthesis around "weather" will store what it finds in the
variable $1? Is that right?

Thanks again, that was a big help.

Also consider str_replace() as it's faster albeit case
sensitive. str_ireplace() exists in PHP 5. Just another
option, I'm surprised you didn't find it when looking
around strpos() and friends.

Your assumptions above are correct, sorry Matt for stepping
in! :) I prefer cold weather.

Philip

Thanks Philip. I did notice str_replace() but it didn't look like I
could use it without it actually replacing what it found instead of just
adding strings before and after it. Am I wrong?

I'd say it will do the job just fine if case sensitivity is not an
issue:

$word = 'weather';
$new = str_replace($word, "<strong>$word</strong>", $phrase);

... speaks for itself ;)

I'm thinking to myself at this moment...

<style>
&weather { font-weight: bold }
</style>

It simply just would make the world a whole lot nicer :)

Do note, this is not a valid css tag, just a simple dream of mine.

Negative! $rev will simply let you know that your MTA (mail
transfer agent) accepted your message. The MTA will attempt to deliver
the message at its own will.

if the mail was unsucessfully delivered, and memy.edu is a valid
email then the email will get returned to memy.edu.

it gets more complicated than that but thats the jest of it.

That would work if aFunction was a variable - more less. It would
display the inner single quotes, so you'd really want:
echo "some text $aFunction some more text";

However, aFunction is, ironically, a function, so it needs to be a
function call.
echo "some text" . aFunction() . "some more text";

This is very much incorrect, not sure where to begin
but please ignore this advice. A string is a string
is a string is a string:

  http://www.php.net/types.string

I'm 99% sure the problem is aFunction() is echoing
a value as opposed to returning one, this is a
common question answered here:

  http://www.php.net/manual/en/faq.using.php#faq.using.wrong-order

If that doesn't answer your question then please
post the code.

Regarding the subject of this thread you should consider
asking smart questions by reading the following in its
entirety:

Very useful for all parties involved! :)

Everyone

Thank you for all the great feedback. Since my function doesnt return
data it just echos it to the browser.

When I use this format it does not display correctly

echo "some text" . aFunction() . "some more text";

If I use the orginal code it displays fine.
echo "Some text";
aFunction();
echo "More text";

Thanks for all the help.

I'm trying to use socket_set_block and php.net says (php4 >= 4.2, php5).

I'm using version 4.3.1 but I get this error

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: socket_set_block() in .....

Any idea why this is? Has the name changed or been something else?

socket_set_nonblock() work fine.

Strange as the name has not changed and the function
requires nothing special (no IF block around it), here's
the source:

 http://lxr.php.net/source/php-src/ext/sockets/sockets.c#715

Since socket_set_nonblock() exists you must have
the socket extension available so this is odd.
Are you sure this problem exists and it's not
something silly? Seems like an impossible problem
assuming your php source wasn't modified :)

Regards,
Philip

attached mail follows:

Well, here's the code i'm using. Let me know if I'm doing something silly.

if(!socket_set_nonblock($this->socket)){
        if($this->logging){ syslog(LOG_ERR, "Could not set socket to nonblock."); }
        exit();
}

//connection part goes here

if(!socket_set_block($this->socket)){
        if($this->logging){ syslog(LOG_ERR, "Could not set socket to block."); }
        exit();
}
if($this->loggging){ syslog(LOG_INFO, "Socket set to block."); }

.... and here's the error

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: socket_set_block()

Perhaps you have multiple PHP versions on your system? Like
an old CLI or CGI laying around somewhere? Maybe try checking
the PHP version in the code as well. If it's not that then
I have no idea.

I want to get rid of the version on php in /urs/local, how do I do this?

There is no src to do a "make uninstall" from. I deleted some
file/directories, but when I do "php -v" it's still looking for the version
in /usr/local/bin instead of /usr/bin.

This can be a long story.. but basically in normal conditions if
php is compiled with --prefix=/usr/local (by default) then you'll
find the php binary in /usr/local/bin/php and stuff in
/usr/local/lib/php*

And then depending on what and how you compiled you're webserver,
an extra library can be anywhere, usually decided by you're
webserver's configuration

php's installation can get complicated and if you're not in a
controlled environment (aka a system package) you're going to have
to uninstall php manually.

You're 'php -v' issue can be easily solved by modifying your $PATH
environment.

look at `echo $PATH`

Hi there, I've looked in many places but have not found any clues on how
to work around this problem.

I'm using imagecopyresampled to resize an image and crop part of it at
the same time. The area I need to crop, unfortunately, is sometimes a
float, which leads to my problem. imagecopyresampled does not accept
float values, and interpolate the images. (Well, technically it accepts
them, but just converts them to an integer internally)

The source image is 63x63 pixels ($rImg1). The destination image is
100x100 pixels ($rImg2).

I want to resize $rImg1 to 100.611x100.611, and place the center 100x100
square in $rImg2. The theoretical imagecopyresampled call is below.

imagecopyresampled($rImg2, $rImg1, -0.3055, -0.3055, 0, 0, 100.611,
100.611, 63, 63);

I realize the above code is incorrect, but it seemed the best way to
illustrate what I'm attempting to accomplish.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

One pixel is the smallest value in images. How do you want your
resulting image to look like? You can resize the image to higher
resolution, but you will need to create 100611x100611 pixel image, and
that's one hell a lot of memory :)

So, what are you trying to achieve?

If I resized the image to 100,611x100,611, cropped it to 100,000, and
then resized it to 100x100 it would achieve the effect I want. It's very
difficult for me to explain, but I'll try.

It's very similar to the interpolation done on the inner pixels. It's
taking the values of all pixels that 'touch' the new pixel, and meshing
them together, basically, shifting the pixels 0.3055 to the right would
overlap old and new pixels partially. I'll try a grayscale example (it's
a bit simpler).

If a black pixel overlapped onto a white pixel, I would get the
percentage of the white pixel it's covering, then combine that with the
percentage of the white pixel not covered by the black pixel). So, if
the black pixel was shifter over 0.4 pixels (40%) onto a white pixel I
would calculate the new color : $iGrey = ($iBlack*0.40) + ($iWhite*0.60);

If $iBlack and $iWhite contained the brightess value of a color it would
look liek this:

$iGrey = (0 * 0.40) + (255 * 0.60);
$iGrey = 0 + 153;
$iGrey = 153;

If I was overlapping a White on to a black by 0.4 pixels:
$iGrey = (255 * 0.40) + (0 * 0.60);
$iGrey = 102 + 0;
$iGrey = 102;

or two differing shades of grey pixels:
$iGrey = (18 * 0.40) + (97 * 0.60);
$iGrey = 7.2 + 58.2;
$iGrey = 65.4;
$iGrey = 65;

imagecopyresampled is already doing something similar when it's
resampling an image to a size that is not a multiple of the old size.

I know there are no fractional pixels in images, but when interpolating
between two images, fractions of pixels must be taken into account.

I hope I cleared things up...

Woah.. that way to much math for my brain at the moment :)

If I understand the situation properly you need to take a smaller
image and make it the boundary for the larger image?? I might
suggest looking at imagick, it is a bit more friendlier with image
manipulation:

Hi There,

I'm trying to develop a band listing site and was just wondering if there is
a php function that could limit the amount of words added into a text area.
I'm aware that this can be done in javascript but the only one I found

the script I was looking at:

In general practice, and depending on how much html you're
outputing:

function input($type,$size,$name,$value) {
<?php
<input type="<php echo $type?>" size="<?php echo $size?>"
    value="<?php echo $value?>" name="<?php echo $name?>>
}

But on the other hand a different approach:

$field = array(
  'type' => $type,
  'size' => $size,
  'value' => $value,
  'name' => $type,
  'id' => $id, /* forgot this one :) */
  );

echo '<input >';
foreach($field as $name => $value ) {
  echo "$name=\"$value\"
}
echo '>';

yeah, I was afraid of that, and I'm really at a loss with any
suggestions as is, except for:

Ideal solution:
  use apache 1.x

Alternate solution:

remove the package you have for php and compile it from the latest
source (4.3.7). if the problem persists then enable the
--enable-debug compile option in php's configure and submit a bug
report at bugs.php.net.

This behaviour has been around (cept for iis & php) since way back
in the CERN httpd days. traditionally this behaviour was only known
within your cgi-bin directory. But since php is ran in your
document root, the behaviour has changed.

The original behaviour was to issue something like:
  /cgi-bin/script.cgi/path/to/some/random/thing

And the CGI script would be passed two extra environment variables:
  PATH_INFO
  PATH_TRANSLATED

PATH_INFO would contain the string after the name of the cgi being
executed

PATH_TRANSLATED would be DOCUMENT_ROOT/PATH_INFO.

If you followed all that I said so far, the cgi application, with
super ease, could check and read a file that actually existed in the
normal html document tree. Which made writing C programs a lot more
easier :)

Apache is smart enough to determain the difference between a .html
and php script. PHP simply inherits the traditional CGI
environment, and an html simplyy can't do anything with PATH_INFO,
so apache just decides to say 404.

> Can anyone explain to me why this is happening? Is this a danger? Can this be turned off? Is this controlled in the .php code, in the php.ini file or in the Apache configuration, or elsewhere?

One quick fix, i could suggest but not recomend is to add an
auto_prepend_file in php that checks for $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'] and
will redirect to $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].

A better solution, on the other hand, would be just to make sure
your html output behaves properly, aka not define a link that goes
to /index.php/search.

And the best solution, depending on how active and complex your
site is, is to use the quick fix and have it alert you in some way,
ie using error_log(), as to let you know that you need to fix some html
somewhere.

As far as I know, there isn't a php directive in apache to tell it

The php loading goes as follows:
  apache starts

  php gets loaded using its compile path to locate php.ini (see

You might want to evaluate your startup procedures to make sure it
starting apache correctly.

I'm not familiar with TIFF (nor ie plugin) and these paging things
