or `sample1.new' was created in some other directory, for exampe, the
cwd of apache server process.
do a search to find it , or use full path in your commandh line.

I have some scripts that I downloaded and am trying to make compliant
with my server. They have <?= placed throughout and I am not sure what
they are and how to fix them at this point.

Stupid question, I know, but...

Thanks,
Robert

Robert,

<?= is short for <?php echo

Cheers,

David Grant

not stupid, although a 'google' might have helped, regardless you have
already had the answer.

I find it funny that you say 'fix them' - one of the things [some of] the core
developers are looking to get rid of is this shorthand syntax
(according to posts on internalslists.php.net) ... something
to do with XML compatibility ... for now its valid php syntax though :-).

attached mail follows:

<? is how XML specifies a processing instruction for the XML parser, for
example:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

Tells the parser that the XML it is parsing is version 1.

Does anyone know if there are any repositories of php scripts that
communicate with Windows Media Server...
I am looking for stuff like getting the number of connected users,
and etc
I have seen perl scripts that do this...but not php

anyone know ?

What is the best way to pass an object between pages? Currently I am
first
serializing, then doing a base64_encode, this doesn't seem entirely
efficient. (Especially the encode).

I am however using the encode because I have the serialized object as the
value of a hidden form element. I can only have alphanumerics here.

attached mail follows:

Are there any benchmarks that people are aware of comparing
PHP4|PHP5|PHP5.1 as far as performance is concerned? I mean, it's easy
to say that performance is improved... but what's the baseline?

Was PHP5 faster than PHP4 for identical code? Thus making PHP5.1 even
faster? Or was it a case of PHP5 being a bit more bulky than PHP4, thus
PHP5.1 bringing it more inline with the old performance. I'm looking to
upgrade of PHP 4.4.1 installs, but I'm holding off on PHP5.1 until
eaccelerator (open source PHP accelerator) becomes compatible. As it is,
PHP5.0.5 is the last supported version. But if 5.0.5 is slower than
4.4.1, I'll hold off.

Thanks in advance.

Hello all,

I have some array code driving me nuts.

I am pulling from a db:

select id, vehicle, has_quotes from cars where active=1

I then loop through these and build an array that contains the id's and cars.

while($res){

$cars[$res[id]]=$res[vehicle];
//here is the problem, when has_quotes is 1, I call another function
to grab the quotes
   if ($res[has_quotes]>1){
    $cars[$res[id]]=grabQuotes($res[id]);
   }

}

The grabQuotes function returns an array and works fine. THe problem
is when I go to display these, I cycle through the car array printing
id and vehicle name. I do a check so if vehicle name is an array, I
print out the quotes from the inner array, problem is I have lost the
vehicle name! How can I fix this?
