In the manual it says:
"You can use a URL as a filename with this function if the fopen
wrappers have been enabled...".
First of all, I would check your php.ini file. If everything is ok
(fopen wrappers are on), maybe you could post some code. The last
option would be to use an other way round by using e.g. curl or
anything else. If anybody else is able to open the URL you provided,
it must be either you code or your server / PHP config that is
messing things up.

Hi everybody.
Due some recent messages in this list and other CSS/XHTML list, I´ve decided
to post this to clarify a very common question: PHP is compatible with ALL
browsers. Why? Because PHP runs at the server, aside from the browser. The
only thing the browser will see is the response (in plain text or html
code). The response code may be incompatible, but not the PHP code. So,
again: PHP is compatible with ALL browsers because PHP does not run at the
browser.
The other issue is: "I would like to run some PHP code when the user click a
link or press a button". Sorry pal... unless you use AJAX or iFrames, it
will not gonna happen. Consider post this types of questions in Javascript
or AJAX lists.
As said before, PHP runs at the server and this kind of problem require
client-side scripting.
Questions about rendering bugs in HTML should be posted at CSS or HTML
Lists.
Sorry if I sounded too cranky. But it´s for a good reason.
Good PHPíng.
P.S.: My suggestion is to send a message explaining that to every member
that joins the list.

most us who are faced with such repeated questions occassionally lose it,
the frustration caused is a real reason for people to become cranky in the face
of the never ending barrage of questions (of the ilk you pointed out)
... but it's not a *good* reason - it's never a good thing to let oneself get
stressed out by the thing that one is confronted with - that said I certainly
understand your sentiment ;-)

it wouldn't be the first or last suggestion of it's kind - unfortunately I'm quite sure
that such a thing will not be implemented, mostly because the list is neither admin'ed nor
moderated by anyone (IIRC Rasmus Lerdorf occasionally steps in to fix some techincal issues
when the list goes completely tits up - other than that the list 'just is' - and I don't
think anyone is expecting Rasmus or someone with a similar level of karma [in the php group's
server/system] to take on such tasks as your suggestion implies, unfortunately they too only
have 24 hours in each day :-P)
such is life - onwards and upwards to the next newbie post about trying to run a
php function when he/she clicks a link :-)

It's been 20+ years since I took a stats class...
I didn't enjoy that class, and doubt if I remember 1% of what was
covered.
Given an input Unix date like:
1132565360
And an array of Unix dates like:
array(3) {
[0]=>
int(1132565342)
[1]=>
int(1132565360)
[2]=>
int(1132565359)
}
I would like to return the input date *IF* it is "reasonable" in its
variance from the date values in the array.
E.g, the above would output: 1132565360
If, however, the input date was "0" for the same array of dates, I'd
want to get, errr... Well, okay, the values in the array...
One of those might *ALSO* be wildly wrong. :-(
So I want the "most likely candidate" for a correct date out of all
this mess, where any of the date values might be wrong.
Any ideas?
Is there a nice built-in "sort out this variance mess for me" function
in PHP? :-)
The somewhat maybe obvious candidate of "stats_variance" is a bit
under-documented...
I'm not sure I'd even understand the numbers that came out of it, even
if I experimented with it and *THOUGHT* I understood the numbers
coming out of it.
And the sheer number of functions in the stats package is making my
head spin.
And I dunno if I could get statistics into the shared server anyway.
Maybe I should explain the "Big Picture", eh?
Okay, so the "Big Picture" is 14,000 emails in an Inbox, that need to
be processed, and tagged with their "date".
[And a whole lot more, but not relevant to this post...]
Seems simple enough, with that Date: header.
Except when it's not there. :-(
Okay, so take the Sent: header if there's no Date: header.
Okay.
No, wait... Damn!
Some fools have their PC clock set to, like, 1970 or whatever. So
let's be generous and assume their CMOS battery has died, and they
haven't had a chance to change it. Fine. Deal with it.
Okay, so *NOW* the algorithm is to do this:
Take the Date: header, or Sent: header if no Date: header -> $whatdate
Parse the Received: headers for the MTA date-stamps -> $fromdates[]
Compare the values in $fromdates array with $whatdate.
If the variance is "too high", then ignore the $whatdate, and take
the, errr, first?, average?, $fromdates[].
No, wait, maybe I should do a variance within the $fromdates in case
some stupid MTA server has a bad clock?
Any advice?
Anybody got a good "variance" function to do what I'm trying to do?
Am I on the entirely wrong path here?
Sheesh!
We may just ignore any obviously wrong dates, and process those by
hand...

does it matter so long as your consistent in what you pick/use/calculate?
I would tend to go for the oldest date in any given array of processed dates
as this would seem to be the closest to the likely actual send date.
>
> No, wait, maybe I should do a variance within the $fromdates in case
> some stupid MTA server has a bad clock?
I would start by setting out a few acceptable boundaries and 'knowns'
for instance:
1. the first mail was sent no earlier than timestampX
(so any timestamp encountered that is earlier than this is bogus.)
2. a maximum time an email could be expected to hang out at any given MTA whilst
waiting to be moved on.
(could be used to drop an outer timestamps [oldest & newest] from a given array of
timestamps extracted from mail whose difference is to it's 'neighbour' is
greater than this agreed maximum period.)
>
> Any advice?
1. don't forget to normalize all found dates in a given mails array of dates
into UTC (if that is even an issue) before doing any actual processing/analysis of
the collected dates.
2. I would consider the date's found in the Date: and/or Sent: headers with the same
brush as any dates found in the Recieved headers - your explanation suggest than no one
header could be construed as being more reliable than another.
3. er there is no 3, unless you consider 'buy a bigger brain' real advice ;-)

for me to let slide :-) please do keep us posted as to your progress!

indeed anything that is blatantly 'dodgy' with regard to dates is probably easier
to (and more accurately) processed by hand than it is to create some wizzo algo. for
it - it's a matter of getting the number of 'dodgy' down to an acceptable level of course.

Hey,
I've seen you solve many questions on this list, and I feel honour to be
able to try and help :)
Well the solution that pops into my head is clustering. Since you have a set
of numbers and 1 or more of them may be abnormal, then you can cluster them
into one or more groups of similar values.
I quickly read up on clustering and coded a function to do something you
might find useful.
---- cluster.php ----
<?php
function mean($arr) {
return array_sum($arr) / count($arr);
}
function find_k_clusters($arr, $k) {
if ($k <= 1)
return array($arr);
// Setup n clusters (and their means)
$cluster = array();
$clusterMean = array();
foreach ($arr as $a) {
$cluster[] = array($a);
$clusterMean[] = $a;
}
//populate an array of all the differences between pairs
$diff = array();
foreach ($clusterMean as $i => $c1) {
$diff[$i] = array();
foreach ($clusterMean as $j => $c2) {
// Only loop until we get to j, so we don't duplicate results
if ($i <= $j)
break;
$diff[$i][$j] = abs( $c1 - $c2 );
}
}
while ( count($cluster) > $k ) {
// find the smallest value (hence the closest pair)
$p1 = false;
$p2 = false;
foreach ($diff as $i => $diffi) {
foreach ($diffi as $j => $d) {
if ($p1 === false || $d < $diff[$p1][$p2]) {
$p1 = $i;
$p2 = $j;
}
}
}
echo "$p1 $p2\n";
//print_r($cluster);
// Add the 2nd cluster to the first, and remove the 2nd
$cluster[ $p1 ] = array_merge ($cluster[ $p1 ], $cluster[ $p2 ]);
$clusterMean[$p1] = mean( $cluster[ $p1 ] );
unset( $cluster[ $p2 ] );
unset( $clusterMean[ $p2 ] );
// Now recalc any diffs that would have changed
unset( $diff[ $p2 ] ); // Remove the $p2 row
// Remove the p2 col
foreach( $diff as $i => &$ds ) {
if ( $i > $p2 ) {
unset($ds[$p2]);
}
}
// recalc the full p1 row
foreach ($diff[$p1] as $j => $d) {
$diff[$p1][$j] = abs( $clusterMean[$p1] - $clusterMean[$j] );
}
}
return array_values( $cluster );
}
$a = array( 1132565342 , 0, 1132565360, 1000000, 1132565359, 1132565360,
1 );
print_r ( find_k_clusters($a, 2) ) ;
?>
-------------
Now you pass the function a array of values, and the number of clusters you
wish to find. So for example entering the array
1132565342 , 0, 1132565360, 1000000, 1132565359, 1132565360, 1
will return 2 clusters like so:
[0] = 1132565342 , 1132565360, 1132565359, 1132565360
[1] = 0, 1000000, 1
It works by putting each value in its own cluster, and then finding the two
"closest" clusters again and again until you are left with $k clusters. I
haven't used the concept of variance.
Now its just up to you to figure out which cluster is correct, and voila you
can throw away (or correct) the bad cluster values.
The problem might get more complex if you have for example dates such as
1970, 1990, 2006... Because then the 1990 will be nearer to the 2006 and be
clustered in the "good" cluster. If you have values such as this you might
want to change this so instead of creating k cluster, it only clusters
values within a suitable distance of each other (for example within 72 hours
of each other, which is a max acceptable time for a email to be bounced
around).
I hope this helps in some way. If not it was fun quickly coding up a
clustering algorithm :)
On reflexation it might be a lot easier to not use clustering and instead
just look at todays date, and throw away any value more than X days out.

I am just learning PHP and as a practical exercise I've been working on
a set of functions to process and manipulate what I call "normalized
number" (ISBNs, EANs, UPCs, etc...)
My ultimate goal is to create a normnum class and child classes for the
different types of numbers.
Because of my line of work, I am mostly interested in ISBN-10s,
ISBN-13s, EANs and UPCs, but it can also be expanded to credit card
numbers, Canadian Social Insurance Numbers, and many more.
So far I have functions to validate ISBN-10s and EANs although I've run
into a bit of a wall with the digit_sum function as explained in the B:
section of that functions header comments.
If anyone can help me out with that or provide any other advice about
the rest of it, I'd be grateful.
The file can be found at http://www.senecal.ca/normnums.php.txt
Thanks.

if you want to turn the direction around reverse the string before
you start the loop:
http://php.net/manual/en/function.strrev.php
personally I would turn the string into an array of chars (which you can then also
reverse as need be) and then do a foreach loop on it ('array index'+1 can be used
to determine position) ... personal preference. anyway take a look at these functions:
http://php.net/manual/en/function.str-split.php
http://php.net/array_reverse
http://php.net/foreach

Can you show us the part of the code that deals with the rollback?
If you are issuing a rollback yourself:
$result = mssql_query("rollback transaction");
then you need to handle that yourself because that's treated as a
separate query.
If you're not doing that (the transaction is rolling itself back), then
I'm out of ideas :)

memory_limit, post_max_size and upload_max_filesize.
the third one is biting you AFAICT. note that upload_max_filesize should be
set somewhat smaller than post_max_size because a file upload forms *part*
of the total data posted.

as an aside - do yourself a favour. grab a copy of the default php.ini
(whatever it's called these days) and read it top to bottom. It will take
you a little while but I'm sure you will, by the end of it, have learned
about some previously unknown ini settings and probably picked up quite a
bit of useful info from the extensive comments that it contains.
it can't hurt right?

If you can't upload *any* files check that the upload_tmp_dir is set and
see if that's writable by php (see php.net/is_writable).

windows server 2003 (et al) uses a completely different mechanism to the std linux
way of doing things with regard to file permissions.
other than opening lots of dialogs and checking lots of boxs I don't really know ;-)
SingTFW didn't offer any obvious results regarding setting NTFS file permissions
directly from php.
maybe you can load a .NET module that has this capability?:
http://php.net/manual/en/ref.dotnet.php
or likewise using the COM extension to gain access to something usable?
http://php.net/manual/en/ref.com.php
or maybe this?:
http://php.net/manual/en/ref.w32api.php
or this?:
http://php.net/manual/en/ref.iisfunc.php
I would probably figure out what commandline functionality windows offers
to do this kind of thing and then call the relevant cmd using the functions
provided here:
http://php.net/manual/en/ref.exec.php
of course a cynic might ask what the point was of bothering with permissions
on a windows system - but I'll restrain myself ;-)

Hello,
I'm using php and apache2 on a freebsd box. I know about .htaccess that

it to pop up a page when a user requests certain files, asking for a
username and password. If those are valid the user is taken to a page where
the files requested can be downloaded. I'd rather not use a mysql database
and keep this user information in a flat file, as what i am trying to do is

http://www.php.net/features.http-auth has some nice examples, though the
"popup" is the same as using htaccess.

If it's in a publicly accessible folder and only a php file to "protect"
it, it won't work.
Put the files in a non-public folder (outside the webroot) and get php
to "pipe" them in.
http://php.net/readfile or http://php.net/fpassthru will work for small
files. For larger files you will need to use http://php.net/fread
(specifically the loop example) so you don't blow out memory.

Hi,
How do I stop contents of a form from being readded to the database if the
user hits the refresh button on their browser.
I have tried to unset/destroy the variables in several different ways, but
it still does it.
After the info is written I unset the variables by using unset($var1, $var2,
$etc). I have also tried unset($_POST['var1'], $_POST['var2'],
$_POST['etc']). I even got deperate and tried $var = ""; or $_POST['var'] =
"";
What do I need to do to get rid of these values??? Obviously I am missing
something.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
attached mail follows:
It doesn't help to reset any values. The form data is being resent by
the browser itself, just if the user presses the submit button again
with the same data.
What you could do is mabye use a session to see if the particular user
has sent form data before.

Perhaps a session variable that is set once the form is submitted.
Depending on the data you could also look at having a primary key in the
database.
You could also have a hidden form variable that has some random value,
once used, it cant be used again.
