See if there is a optimize, clean. vacuum or refresh command. Most DBs have them by whatever name.

Maybe SQLite would be an alternate choice.

Hey!

.....A little background:
We have a site that has already been made.. a couple of hundred pages displayed via SMARTY templates, the site's in Swedish.

The navigation and other parts except for the center is taken care of by the templates and other scripts... the center main text is taken from the database(mySql) based on $page_id...its in a MySql TEXT field and has all the html etc that will be displayed in the center of the page.

....End of background..

Now they want to add a "search function" to the site... a simpe textbox where a user enters a word or sentance and they get 20 results per page... with a "x.xx % closest to your query" can anybody give me basic pointers on where to start?
Any links/software or articles too would be appreciated...

(I can do the pagentation etc... just the search logic...)

Thanks!

Don't reinvent the wheel - mnogosearch has php compatibility.

You could google for "full text search" and "weighted search" and find
more than enough reading to fill the rest of your life... :-)

With only a couple hundred pages of content, it's kinda hard to really
make a good search engine...

You'd almost be better off just building a form that leads to Google
and using theirs, really.

One way to do this would be to let the script check itself:

<?php
$end_of_day = mktime(23, 59, 59);
declare(ticks = 1);

    function signal_handler($signal) {
        $tm = time();
        if($tm > $end_of_day) {
            exit(0);
        }
    }

pcntl_signal(SIGALRM, "signal_handler", true);
pcntl_alarm(300);

?>
Here you set an alarm that checks every 5 minutes to see if the current
timestamp is greater than the timestamp a minute before midnight. If it
is, then exit. Or set a flag in the signal handler that is accessed
elsewhere in your script which tells the script that it's time to exit.

su to root

ps auxwww | grep socketxxx.php

If 'xxx' changes, you could just maybe do:

ps auxwwww | grep socket | grep php

Once you're sure you know what you want to kill, you could use 'kill'
to kill it.

You'll need the process ID number, which is the first number you see
in the row, right after the username.

Now that I've answered your question...

Almost for sure, whatever it is you THINK you should be doing, you've
done something else horribly wrong that is making you THINK you should
be searching for and killing these processes, but you shouldn't. :-)

Since they already ARE php, it would probably be MUCH simpler to alter
the PHP in your socketxxx.php script, and add a couple lines like
this:

<?php
  $start = date('Y-m-d');
  //more code here
  while (1){
    if (date('Y-m-d') != $start) exit;
    //socket reading/handling code here
  }
?>

This presumes you actually need the process to die in the first place,
which sounds kinda hinky in and of itself, to tell you the truth...

Most Un*x socket-based processes start at boot and run forever until
the machine is shutdown, or somebody trips over the power-cord.

hey chris...

can you tell us what you're trying to accomplish, and what the processes
you're looking to kill are doing? why are you trying to kill them on a daily
basis.. i'm assuming that you don't want hanging socket processes just
sitting on your system...

I also use NuSOAP with PHP5, all I did is edit nusoap.php and rename the
class "soapclient" to "soap_client".

It depends how "smart" apt-get is gonna be, but you might try:
uninstall soap
uninstall php
re-install php FIRST
re-install SOAP

Since PHP will think SOAP was not there, it won't add in the PHP SOAP
stuff.

If apt-get is "smart" and figures out that you wanted SOAP + PHP
because you already have PHP, you have no choice but to compile from
source and choose what you want, instead of taking whatever apt-get
feels like giving you.

I noticed the following in my logs:

Why is mssql_query() saying that it's unable to set the query? I did some
searching on Google and found that people were having this problem but that
was back in 2001 using an earlier version of PHP. We are using version
4.3.11 and Microsoft SQL Server 2000 - 8.00.2039 (Intel X86).

Has anyone had a similar problem? What was your solution? Why is this
happening?

I did some
        searching on Google and found that people were having this
problem but that
        was back in 2001 using an earlier version of PHP. We are using
version
        4.3.11 and Microsoft SQL Server 2000 - 8.00.2039 (Intel X86).

        Has anyone had a similar problem? What was your solution? Why
is this
        happening?

        thnx,

I dunno 100% for sure about MSsql, but I know for sure that MySQL lets
you do wording_id = '8' when wording_id is an INT and PostgreSQL will
simply throw an error, because '8' is not no way no how an INT. It's
a string.

I suspect MS SQL may be doing the same, in its own unique bland
non-desript way of just saying "error"...

Try losing the '8' and use just 8

After some other tests, I think the problem is with the rights of the

I made tests on my personnal Mac that runs Apache/1.3.33 (Darwin) PHP/

Settings in PHP:

My destination folder is page5, same as my server (everyone can read

I can't open it... But when I change the rights on the file, I can

Is there a way to change the owner or the group of a file in PHP.

PHP has two functions that may help you here, Eric --- chmod() and
chown().

http://php.net/chmod
http://php.net/chown

It should be enough to chmod($filename,0644); the file if it's just an
image, or chmod($filename,0755); the file if it's a script.

http://uk2.php.net/chown

But remember the chown will fail if the user Apache is running under
does not have sufficient rights to perform the task.

There probably is a http://php.net/chown, but unless you are running
Apache as 'root' (DON'T DO THAT!) then it won't work.

However, you can use http://php.net/chmod to make the file readable by
you as well as the 'www' user.

It is very frightening, however, to see the group 'wheel' on the file,
since 'wheel' is usually reserved for users that can 'su' to root, and
having uploaded image files in that group just doesn't feel right.

If identifyUser() returns false, $_SESSION['userstate'] is not defined.

hi rich(ard)!!

kind of an off point/topic reply. but here goes. the issue you mention is in
my opinion a part of a much larger issue that has to do with the anonymous
nature of the internet with regards mailing lists, as well as the kinds of
product review sites/blogs/etc...

there is no 'good' way for the average user/reader to know if what someone
says is really valid!!! if you, (or anyone else) created a kind of
ranking/rating process so that when a given person posts something, you
could quickly check that user's credentials, then you'd make yourself a nice
chunk of change...

Just to play Devil's Advocate...

Are you suggesting that every site on the 'net, or even just those
which LOOK like worthy material, without such a disclaimer, IS
authoritative?...

:-)

Taking this a step further, or dragging it out into an open discussion:

I'm not a real huge fan of the folks on this list who post almost as
often as I with links to their own ad-revenue sites, but they are at
least (usually) on-topic and with valid information available to the
reader.

It might be better if they sprinkled in links to php.net or even
(gasp!) a "competitor's" site sometimes, but it's not like total
spamming, eh?

There are even times where I know that there is specific content on
such a site, and I'll recommend it.

SO where do you draw the line?

Seems to me we have to be reasonable about that.

And we also have to expect the Reader to at least have half a clue and
do some basic research about the source[s] of their info, and their
vested interests, and choose for themselves what info to pursue...
Though based on experience with some posts, that may be expecting more
than will actually happen. Aim high. :-)

Hi!

What do you guys use to develop ajax applications and do you have any
good articles on the subject?

I've just about finished an ajaxish site but it wasn't fun. A lot of
nesting javascript inside php calls, having to write the logic both in
javascript and php and so on. The source looks ugly and was time
consuming to debug.

Thanks!

Have a look at the various frameworks available since these handle much of
the nasty details:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_web_application_frameworks#PHP

I've been using Qcodo (http://www.qcodo.com) for a recent web app and am
impressed at how quickly I've been able to develop with it. For
JavaScript/CSS, I've also been using Yahoo User Interface (YUI) components
which I'm also really impressed with: http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/

The thing with frameworks and libraries is that everyone will have their
favourite for one reason or another. You just have to find the one you feel
most comfortable with.

Hope that helps,
Edward

Yes. :)

The Yahoo! User Interface (YUI) Library is a set of utilities and
controls, written in JavaScript, for building richly interactive web
applications using techniques such as DOM scripting, DHTML and AJAX.

I´ve been using the YUI library and, specifically for AJAX, the Connection
Manager (http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/connection/), but also many of the
other components in YUI.

I find that some of the frameworks are a little heavy, covering both the
JavaScript side and the PHP server side. In some you deal with the PHP side
and in some misterious way JavaScript gets sent to the client, but they are
too obscure for my taste, I prefer to know what goes on.

YUI coupled with Firefox with the FireBug debugger plugin is a great
combination and on the server side you are quite free to do and use whatever
you want. And don't miss the videos of the presentations of Douglas
Crockford on JavaScrit and the DOM.

Hi!

What do you guys use to develop ajax applications and do you have any good
articles on the subject?

I've just about finished an ajaxish site but it wasn't fun. A lot of nesting
javascript inside php calls, having to write the logic both in javascript
and php and so on. The source looks ugly and was time consuming to debug.

Thanks!

Anything involving javascript development has several built in
debugging facilities
1: Alert dialogs: You may find it a chore to learn how to use them
effectively. But
    the current content of any variable can be displayed with an alert
dialog. You
    have to pay attention to how strings are concatenated; with +, The
actual
    variable name cannot be quoted.
2: Browser error reporting, in Netscape species, javascript console.
Take a hint,
     all source code text should be formated for Unix/Linux ( line feed
line endings)
     If you do scripting on a Classic Mac OS <= OS9, the line endings
are carriage;
     and Windows uses both carriage return and line feed.
     return. You will drive your self crazy cussing the console because
it will not refer
     to lines containing syntax errors, but some disrelated lines.
3. View source window in browser to see exactly what the browser is
getting on
     page load.
4. Forms: I have coded special forms just for the sake of development
and debug
    of javascript apps. All globals are visible through out the script,
WITH THE EXCEPTION
    OF SOME THAT ARE DEFINED IN SOURCED JS FILES; Opening a javascript
window is
    in a function does not seem to register if the function is in a
sourced file.
5. Patience, patience, patience, some masochism, Several large
available paper back
    text books. No one will describe all you might need to know about
issues like rollovers,
    DHTML, etc, Imagination and ingenuity, or the will to search and
sift through others
    source code until you find what you are looking for, and then making
it work for you.
   That's it, I have some suggestion that there are systems available
for javascript but I
   have done without long enough to have my methods and approaches.
One more thing, php and javascript work very well together. I have even
written a
function to display php variable values as javascript alert dialogs. It
will not function
as break points for php like it does with javascript, but at least you
do not have to
decipher php error smeared all over the screen.
And Ajax, even though I have not cracked that particular aspect of
javascript as yet,
looks very worthwhile.

Ah, but can you code JAVASCRIRPT in the Gimp IDE? ;)

I'm not sure why the job requires you to lease the IDE though - Photoshop is
a bit pricey, but it's not that bad!

No, but here's a Tip:

If you spell it that way, the code you write just plain doesn't run,
and nothing tells you what went wrong.

*THAT* particular typo only wasted a half-day for me a couple weeks ago.

Sigh.

The same basic thing happened to me when I was working on an interface
to the PayPal NVP API for their Website Payments Pro setup yesterday. It
took me almost four hours of debugging with no error return to realize I had
an ending slash on a non-directory URI (it was an "extensionless" file).

I thought *I* was way behind with my RH 7 main desktop/dev/production
box. [Don't ask why it is all three of those at once...]

Though, I guess, now that the network card conked out (afaict) it's
not a production server anymore. Oh well.

I don't think I'll ever really grok /sbin/route -n output, but it
looks just like the one that's working, and it's still not working,
and I can swap cat5 cables and the other one works, so I guess it
almost has to be the network card just up and died... Right???

Dude, it's kind of your JOB to know these things, and if you don't
know them, you can use Google to find out...

Asking a few thousand PHP Developers to explain what Photoshop is, and
isn't, to you...

Well, it's kind of like walking into a crowded barber shop and asking
what a carbeurator is...

Don't be surprised if the answers you get are 100% wrong, or jokes, or
both at once.

I've got 7 running in vmware :)

I use it to build PHP, MySQL, and Apache (and various other nick knacks)
for a customer's server.

Interesting idea.

This brings up a question. In order to decide whether to use cookies
or SID the built-in sessions must be testing to see if the user's
browser will accept the session cookies. How do they do that?

If they do it by the "2 page", send a cookie and see if it comes
back to the second page method we have been talking about, then
somehow, they are sureptiously inserting a forward to a non-
existant page! Right? How do they do that?

Best,

Craig

The same way you would do it.

Actually, they might have just used:

$cookie_name = session_name();
if (isset($_COOKIE[$cookie_name])){
  $session_id = $_COOKIE[$cookie_name];
}
elseif (isset($_REQUEST[$cookie_name])){
  $session_id = $_REQUEST[$cookie_name];
}
else{
  $session_id = uniquid();
}

No, that's not how it works.

JUST send the dang cookie on every page.

And check if it's there on every page.

And whatever first page the user gets to, with no cookie, be sure you
send them suitable content for having no cookie.
