This is a pretty good solution, however for the sake of paranoia about
potentially removing characters that Will may not want targeted by the
function (i.e., what if "<", ">", "^" or "_" legitimately appear later in
the string and are accidentally removed?), I'd do something like the
following:
<?
function replace($string){
preg_match("/^<\^([a-zA-Z]+?)_([a-zA-Z]+?)>/", $string, $matcharr);
$string = str_replace($matcharr[0], $matcharr[1] . " " .$matcharr[2]
. ":", $string);
return $string;
}
$string = "<^JIM_JONES> Leicester, 1720. Oxford, 1800 CONFIRMED: meeting at
19.10";
echo replace($string);
?>
One of the small benefits of this solution is that Will doesn't need to know
what is contained in the target substring beforehand.

Hehe, well put...a few things you forgot to write:
Ryan A and Rory Browne got so irritated because its like talking to a
tree.....in english when the tree
only understands some other language :-D
that they tried to throw in the towel
I was so fed up I was going to drop the whole thing because certain well
wishers wrote
to me too telling me it was hopeless to try to reason or use logic with
him...and I pretty much
dropped it till he got the hairs at the back of my neck up by saying i like
saying things and running..
so am taking it offlist.
Consider this link:
http://www.somesite.com/section=servers&something=somethingelse&a=b&b=a&blah=jack&bill=gates&gates=evil&affilate=1145&more=gibberish&claudia=too_good_for_that_magician_guy
imagine someone gave you that kind of a link when you asked for
help.....pretty good but unless you really searched for it you would miss
the affiliate=1145 part...yes, its there..check it out...the affiliate could
be smaller too..something like aff=1045 but its lost in the other gibberish
of the url...
Decency would dictate that the person sending you the link tells you theres
an affiliate code there somewhere...
thats all I am saying....but I cant seem to get that message accross to
someone...so am pretty much throwing in the towel
after I have a few words offlist ;-)
But all in all, its been a pretty good few weeks on the list with no one
asking "which php editor is best" or
"how do you make a script sleep for x seconds" or "how do i do **** on the
clients machine?"
Peace all.
Cheers,
Ryan

8: Anonymous third parties, suggest via private email, that Manuel
cannot be reasoned with. I decide that I'd perfer to make such
assertions myself, without relying the judgement of others, and give
Manuel the benifit of the doubt. Manuel begins making wild
accusations, leading Ryan ane Rory to take the discussion off-list,
until such stage that a resolution is found.
Let me now summerise the above into an even shorter, and clearer message:
Grow up, and get a grip. We don't know you well enough to have some
wild conspiracy against you.

Easy:
<?php
for($i=0;$i<5;$i++) sleep(1);
?>
Or better:
<?php
$endtime = time()+5;
while (time() != $endtime);
?>
Or even better:
<?php
$endtime = time()+5;
while (`date +%s` != $endtime);
?>
We have busy wait, we have risk of indefinite loops. The next step
should be (more) imprecision. Maybe read /proc/cpuinfo and perform n
steps of simple loop where n is calculated from the cpu type, mhz and
current load. Maybe a PEAR project?

RTFM - http://www.php.net/sleep
Try this: sleep(5);
It's amazing how useful the manual can be . . .

This runs the risk of somebody adding some code in there that takes longer
than a second to run, and then suddenly it's in an infinite loop because
the $endtime is never EQUAL to time()
Safe to say while (time() <= $endtime)

Gak!

Mr. Lynch, either intentionally or inadvertently, you have succeeded in

Definitely a PEAR candidate, but we should ensure it requires the

I reached the following solution:
I never got access to any SSL_*-variables under $_SERVER (not even the
server variables or using another language - or server, php version
and OS), but a workaround for Apache and mod_ssl is to add
SSLOptions +ExportCertData
to httpd.conf (or .htaccess)
The certificate presented by the client would then be stored in
$_SERVER['SSL_CLIENT_CERT'] (the only SSL_*-variable available,
besides SSL_SERVER_CERT). The data could then be retrieved using
openssl_x509_parse(), e.g.:
<?php
$cert = openssl_x509_parse($_SERVER['SSL_CLIENT_CERT']);
print $cert['subject']['CN'];
?>
I would still like to know why the SSL-variables aren't available, but
I don't think this is a PHP issue.
Just wanted to post my solution for the sake of mail archives :-)

You should always use a full path to commands and file names in exec,

You may also be working under some kind of secure enviroment such as a

which case there should be some kinda file in /etc/ that has a name kinda
like 'selinux' that tells you what's going on) or...
Honestly, though, I'd suggest you make a concerted effort (sooner or

I would recommend using the DB first.
If you can't/won't do that, use sessions.
I would NOT recommend carrying all the variables along as INPUT
TYPE="HIDDEN" -- While that would "work" it makes it much harder to allow,
say, a user who got disconnected to complete the form later, or a user
whose session timed out because their boss walked in, or...
If you've stored their info in sessions, you will still lose it if their
session times out.
If it's in the DB, then they can complete the form whenever they have time.
100 questions is a lot of questions...
You might even allow them to answer different sections in different
orders, if there is a nice way to present them with some kind of grouping
that's less arbitrary than 1-20, 21-40, ...
'Course, if this is a timed test/exam or something, some of the above is
moot... But a student trying to take an exam that gets disconnected?
Better to log their session start/end in the DB and only "count" time
against them if it is contiguous, if you can.

You're not gonna slam the database unless you have *LOTS* of people
filling out the form at the same time.
How many is *LOTS* depends on hardware, and you should test this with YOUR
hardware/network, but I suspect you are worrying over a non-issue on this.

When I suggested hidden input fields, I was working on the assumption,
that the person wouldn't be filling out half of the form, and then
coming back later to fill in the rest of the form.
Assuming it would be nice to cross-reference answers with other
answers from the same answerer, putting them in the DB initially will
not solve your problem. Unless you use sessions, then you know that
somebody answered questions 1 - 20, and you know that someone answered
21 - 40. You don't know that the answerers to the two sections are
from the same person, unless you use sessions as well, which negates
your next point.

If all else fails, you could send it to your From: address with an extra
header like:
X-File-In-Sent: File-In-Sent-Folder
and then put a filter in your email client to filter all the stuff on that
header into "Sent"
Crude, but effective :-)

I have used CVS before (since its available in Zend Studio) and have had
to do a bit of reconfiguring of Zend (because I refuse to connect using
pserver, and the CVS-over-SSH instructions at Zend didn't work for me).
You can get other CVS clients installed and use them for
checkin/checkout and then edit the files in your favorite editor (if it
is not cvs-enabled).
Some of the good ones are TortoiseCVS and WinCVS.

yes, everyday :-)
bare in mind that CVS actually creates a bit more work for you (especially in the
beginning when you are still on the fairly steep CVS learning curve) but that
you gain in oversight and ability to step back etc etc.
Also I hear lots of good things about subversion (SVN), which is a
newer alternative for version control - some even say its better.
> What programms have you used for it? CVS should be located on the internet.
when on Windows I use TortoiseCVS as my CVS client. your CVS server should be
setup somewhere you are reach it (I have mine setup so that I can SSH or VPN
to the network the CVS box is on) - alternatively if you are developing on your
own its quite feasable to run the CVS server/repository on your local box
(and move it later if you want to share).
the biggest problem is being able to check out a _working_ copy of your site.
that requires some preparation - often you have 2 or 3 places you need to run
a copy of a site (local/test, staging, live). each copy of the site may have
slightly different include paths, different DB connections, etc.
in order to accomodate the differences I usually keep 'box' specific configuration
stuff in barebones 1 file that does not exist in CVS (usually called global.php)
and/or make use of a .htaccess file that also does not exist inside CVS.
if you are deploying your sites/apps to remote servers (think linux/*nix) then you
had better get familiar with a few of the basic cmdlines for working with CVS, once
you have a checkout setup (for instance for staging or demoing) with the correct
CVSROOT (etc) its quite simple to update the 'demo' server with the following cmd
(typed while you are in the appropriate dir):
> cvs up
Don't forget that if you are developing in a different place to where the live site
will run then you will probably have to keep DB schemas in sync as well - you will
have to think about keeping a DB updater script in CVS to allow you to update the
demo/live copies of the DB. Personally I'm a FirebirdDB fan - and I use IBExpert to
sync the different copies of a DB that may exist for a given project.
well there you have a little insight into my world, hope you succeed with version
control too!

Hi
Currently we are building a basic content management system where we
would like to be able to write as libral customized tags as possible,
for example [[select:array_name,title]] or [[form:name]] in the
format of [[<function>:<arguments>]]
The problem that we are experiencing are that the arguments are being
parsed as a single string, does anybody know of what function / method
i can use to get around this? My default option is to write the
functions to split the single supplied argument into their respective
arguments, but i am sure there is a easier way around?
I have tried splitting them up, and rejoining them with a "," but i
think i am just redoing what php does internally.
Here is my current code,
<?php
// function = select, array = _title_, name= select_title
$str = "{{select:_title_,select_title}}";
parse($str);
function parse($str){
$reg_ex = '/\{\{([a-zA-Z0-9\-_]+):(.*)\}\}/'; //
{{function_name:paramaters,seperate,by,comma}}
preg_match_all($reg_ex,$str,$matches,PREG_SET_ORDER);
// $matches[0] = whole function
// $matches[1] = function
// $matches[2] = content / params
echo $match_count = count($matches);
for ($i=0;$i<$match_count;$i++){
$output = null;
if(function_exists($matches[$i][1])){
//function has been declared
// TO-DO: add safe mode function array to specify allowed functions
#echo " DEBUG: {$matches[$i][1]} ( {$matches[$i][2]} ) <br
/>\n";
$args = explode(",",$matches[$i][2]);
$cnt = count($args);
$params = null;
for($j=0; $j < $cnt; $j++){
#$params .= "\$args[$j]";
$params .= $args[$j];
$params .= ($j != ($cnt-1))? ",": "";
}// end for
//eval("echo $params;");
//$output =
$matches[$i][1](implode(",",$args));//single str
$output = $matches[$i][1]($params);
$str = eregi_replace($matches[$i][0],$output,$str);
} //end if
else {
// function not found or allowed remove tags
//echo "DEBUG: function not found<br />\n";
$str = eregi_replace($matches[$i][0],'',$str);
}// end else
}//end for
return $str;
}
function select($array='',$name='',$extra=''){
echo '<pre>';
print_r(func_get_args());
echo '</pre>';
}
?>

some funcs that might help you:
compact()
extract()
call_user_func()
call_user_func_array()
also I recommend doing everything you can not to have to use
an eval() statement anywhere with this code as that would be comparatively
slow and you have to start worrying about possible security issues...
lastly my personal preference is towards the preg_*() funcs
rather than the eregi_*() funcs. regardless you should minimize the use
of regular expressions if you can... use explode(), strstr() and the like
where ever possible.
if you find a neat way of making use of call_user_func_array() then I think
you can cut the step where you rebuild the params string with commas.
also you might want to check out the way the Smarty guys implemented their
plugin/tag functionality - you may not like their style or implementation
but no doubt there is some overlap in what you are trying to do and what
they have done - so it may give you some ideas.
good luck.
