Use the -c command line option to be sure, for example:
C:\php5\php.exe -c "C:\php5\php.ini" -f "D:\wamp\www\scriptname.php"

AFAIK php on windows is generally built with all relevant modules included
(check the php.ini used by apaches mod_php and you'll probably notice the
extension=php_mysql.dll line is actually commented out)
my guess would be that the CLI version of php is built without the mysql
extension.
and if it's not that then it's probably down to difference in php.ini after all.

Yes it is a matter of semantics, but my definition can be boiled down
to.... "A software engineer engineers a solution whereas a web
developer will simply knock up something that works and move on."
I'm not knocking those who don't apply software engineering principals
to their development - they have their place and the vast majority of
PHP-based websites can be successfully implemented from that point of
view. However, I tend to work on large web-based applications rather
than "simple" sites, and in my world applying software engineering
principals helps to ensure the sites are structurally sound,
maintainable and performant (which Apple Mail thinks should be
"perform ant", love it!).
I would never hire a developer who blindly implements a solution
without thinking about what they're doing. I know I'm not perfect, I
know I make mistakes, and on occasion they have cost an embarrassing
amount of money to fix. I'm also fully aware that other people have
insights that would never occur to me. If I'm farming out work to code
monkeys I need them to sanity check my solution and challenge me if
they think something's wrong or they think the have a better solution.

Well, implemented in PHP would be nice, but nothing beyond that. There
are many different ways to do it.
It's worth noting that I've asked the same question to more than a few
interviewees for traditional C/C++ roles, and I never came across one
that couldn't do it which I find quite interesting.
Incidentally, the same distinction between engineers and developers
applies here too, it's certainly not specific to web development.

Coincidentally, I just informed Jochem about ten minutes ago that
my spell-checker extension in Firefox (probably Aspell-based, since it
recognizes the word "Aspell") considers the word "ain't" to be
correct. Unfortunately, what should be a positive (and thus proper
opposite), "ain" - which I conjecture should be the redneck equivalent
of "is" - does not exist in the lexicon.... but I digress.

I don't mind people telling me I've done something wrong or not as
well as I should have. Sure, I've been pounding keyboards for many
moons, but even Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and Richard Lynch will all
agree that a second set of eyes and another brain will offer better
insight and help teach an aged canine new alternatives to
mysql_fetch_assoc(). ;-P

Never came across one who *could* or *could not*? Just checking
for typos here. If that's typed correctly, it's certainly worth
noting. I'd envision more people attempting to reverse the order or,
as Shawn did earlier, doing the equivalent of PHP's array_flip().
> Incidentally, the same distinction between engineers and developers
> applies here too, it's certainly not specific to web development.
And while it hasn't been said otherwise, I also consider this
worth noting - especially for new PHP programmers who are afraid of
looking like fools when asking questions to further their knowledge or
don't consider their grasp of the language good enough to keep
learning:
Just because you don't know every function in the PHP manual
doesn't mean you're not going to be a good programmer. That's why the
manual is there. That's why this list is here. I learn a new
function every week (not on purpose, but I did write a script to do a
random one daily and just never used it) that I never before knew.
For example: array_reverse() and array_flip(). I had been writing my
own functions to handle similar operations. Now, when I need
something in the future, I'll remember the functions and employ them.
And if/when I'm granted the time and opportunity, I'll update the
function files that use those routines and make them a bit more
economical.

In all seriousness, I haven't a clue as to what to call myself these
days. I think the lines have blurred considerably, at least for me.
I'm certainly no longer a master at anything, the technology is too
diverse. But I can get just about anything done, if time is not an
issue, and it's usually is not a problem.
I guess the bottom line is what your clients/employers think. If they
approve, then I guess that you can be just about anything. If they
don't, then that narrows the field a bit.

tedd

engineer.

Oddly, I learned JavaScript and PHP before truly learning XHTML.
By the way, I really hate <font> tags, so learn XHTML! Also, if you're
learning JavaScript, please learn W3C DOM, and not the
document.write(Ugliness). :)

Not in my book you don't. Experience has shown that bits of paper lie
better than most people do. Prove yourself to me in person - I'll

You had snow?
In my day it was just glaciers -- as far as the eye could see.

Once those buggers got froze, it was hard to do anything.

That article does not "state the reason why to migrate from PHP to

I would very strongly sway you against oscommerce. I wrote a theme
system that is wildly popular for phpnuke and postnuke cmss (AutoTheme)
and had some that wanted it for oscommerce. I moded my code for
oscommerce, but it was a serious bitch. It may do as advertised, but it
is tightly coded and leaves no room for additions. To do *anything*
requires hacking core files, after sifting through crap code to try and
figure how it works, then hack it to what you want.
I once installed zencart and have never used it, but at the point where
people wanted my theme system for zencart I started trying to port it.
It was my lack of enthusiasm that kept it from happening, but from what
I remember it was s rewrite of oscommerce of sorts but a modular system,
where they coded it in such a fashion that you could add modules, not
hack core code to get the functionality that you needed.
Not sure how the development has progressed but my 2 cents.

Looks ok from your example, however which column are you looking at for
your ordering?
My first guess is that's you're looking at the 'text' column (before the
-) in your output and not seeing that ordered... it's the second column
you should look at since that's you're "order by" in the query.
Provide a short example of what you get when you run the query manually
and what you get as the output where it doesn't match up.

Hi guys,
Relex a little on the topic "What design patterns do you usually use".
Choose the ones you use often at: http:// phparch [dot] cn
And this will answer that question, isn't it?
Those options are the ones that we often use. If there is any option needed
to be replaced, just let me know.
You can choose 2, 3, 4, ... or even more.... :-)
And you can check the result if interested.
Ill report the results regularly if needed. :)

i read the php architect book and paid for 5 of their sample tests.
http://www.phparch.com/c/books/id/0973862149
some of the questions on the test are really obscure, not really like
about the language as much as the set of functions that ship w/ it.
they try and trip you up, like asking very specific questions about
some of the functions and so forth.
good news is a low score still makes the passing grade ;)

Did you really have to post this twice to the list?
When posting to the list, wait for a while for a response before posting again about the same item.

There's a test for PHP? Wow, I never knew that. Is there some kind of
free online test to determine my [self-taught] PHP knowledge? :D

Then it's great. What I imagined was that you should make something like
90%.
I have thought then it should have to be hard to pass.

trust me, with the level of obscurity in a number of those questions, youll
be cursing the bastard that wrote it just as soon as you start taking it.
after all that studying, only to get to something that requires vast
knowledge of a number php functions, i mean really, everyone under the sun
refers to the functions w/ php.net beside them while they code right? or
maybe i just havent committed all of them to memory like everyone else ;)
they hit you over the head w/ various different array sorting methods and
thats just the beginning. i thought the passing req would be a cinch until
i started taking the exam. then after pushing through my frustration, i was
wondering if i would actually make it. seriously some of them are hit or
miss, theres no way to verify it there on the spot until you hit the grade
button.

The "a" character (97) is different from the "讗" character (1488).
$a = html_entity_decode('א');
$test=preg_replace('/\b([^\s]+)' . $a . '\b.*/U', '$1A', $test);
Will this work?

in the above example I don't see the character-to-be-replaced in the
original string, so I'm not surprised it does not get replaced ;)
you can test the regex further here:
http://www.spaweditor.com/scripts/regex/index.php
I pasted your data in there (don't be surprised that after posting it
turns them into html entities), replaced the last character to the one
in the regex and the preg_replace worked

No, it doesn't. I've been playing around a bit and learning, and it
looks like it really should work. With English letters it does. But
not with Hebrew. You can see the result and the exact code used
here:

I appreciate the assistance. I'm certain that we're missing only some
small detail here.

It was supposed to be this:
$test="讗讗讘讗讙讗讚讗 讗讗 讗 ";
$test=preg_replace('/\b([^\s]+)讗\b.*/U', '$1注', $test);
print $test; // PRINTS 讗讗讘讗讙讗讚讗 讗讗 讗
But I reversed them while trying a string of different letters, and
apparently only CTRL-Z'ed part of the code before copying to here.
Sorry. The code above also does not work. Not on my server, and not at
spaweditor.com (Thanks for that resource, by the way). You can see the
result and the exact code used here:

Not for me. These are my parameters:
Enter regular expression here: /\b([^\s]+)讗\b.*/U
Enter your data here: 讗讗讘讗讙讗讚讗 讗讗 讗 讞
Enter text to replace matches with here: (backreferences are ok): $1注
Regular expression options: PERL
Function: preg_replace
Flags: 0 limit
I really appreciate the help.

strange, now for a second try it did not work for me either... maybe I
confused some hebrew letters last time...
with html entities it won't work, as a html entity is a set of
characters for the regex interpreter.
anyone utf8 experts in here? I've run out of ideas...

Hmm, when your daemon does a fork(), it should be perfectly capable of
installing its own signal handlers. Is SIGQUIT enabled? Check your
signal mask.

this is absolutely similar to a well-organized class structure, just
replace 'file' with 'class' :)

well, if classes are not convenient for you, then sure it would take
more time but only for the first time. after that, my experience is that
development time is less with classes

I do use classes, but mix it with procedural code and some function
libraries. But I'm a self-educated webdeveloper. I just use classes
since a couple of years (started PHP in 1999) and hadn't an example how
to factor certain solutions for known problems. Nowadays I hear about
patterns and deep OOP and design with real architecture in mind. Fine,
PHP gets more mature, gets more attention and can fit in an enterprise
environment (ducks.....;-).
But to teach myself software engineering is still a steep curve even if
I've done a lot of webprogramming in the past. I can't find the time to
study software engineering to a level that is desired these days for
webprogramming. I'd love to follow some courses or workshops here and
there, but that doesn't compare to 4 years of hardcore computer science.
I also see that besides nice OOP etc. there is a need for security
expertise, configuration / optimization expertise, Web x.x expertise,
database expertise. I think you cannot become a guru at all these fields
to a same level even if I want to and probably am able to.
What I want to say is, yes classes can take some trouble away, but right
now I don't have the complete skills to software engineer the whole
shebang over and over. I'd rather have the job done in time than do it
the 'professional engineering' way.

Hi
I'm using Spl RecursiveDirectoryIterator to traverse a directory and have no
problem with it but now I'm stuck. I only need to display directories with
no files in it.
Can someone help with this?
My current code:
set_time_limit(0);
$files = new RecursiveIteratorIterator(new
RecursiveDirectoryIterator('c:\dev'),
RecursiveIteratorIterator::SELF_FIRST);
foreach($files as $file) {
if ($files->isDir()) {
echo $file . "<br/>";
}
}
I have
c:\dev
c:\dev\php
c:\dev\php\file1.php
c:\dev\php\file2.php
c:\dev\php\test
c:\dev\php\test\db
I would like to display 'test' because although there is a 'db' folder,
there are no files in c:\dev\php\test
Bets regards,
holo

huh? what about debug_backtrace() ... contains plenty of info, including

Hi all,
What do you think is the best way to display string 'abcdef' as 'fedcba'?
Any ideas appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

$tmp = '';
$str = 'abcdef';
for ($i = strlen($str); $i >= 0; $i--) {
$tmp.= $str[$i];
}
echo $tmp;

Close, but no cigar. $i should be initialised to strlen($str)-1
otherwise you start one character beyond the end of the string.

Ah, well. You're right, but it works none the less.

hi there,
I can't seem to manage to buffer output (of an included file) in a CLI script,
the following does not work:
// buffer output so we can avoid the shebang line being output (and strip it from the output we log)
$oldIFvalue = ini_set('implicit_flush', false);
ob_start();
if (!include $script) {
ob_end_clean();
} else {
$output = explode("\n", ob_get_clean());
if ($output[0] && preg_match('%^#!\/%', $output[0]))
unset($output[0]);
}
ini_set('implicit_flush', $oldIFvalue);
the reason I'm wanting to do this is, primarily, in order to stop the shebang line that *may*
be present in the included script from being output to stdout.

Aren't you deleting the output when you do ob_get_clean?
Meaning, you are missing an echo of the captured buffer, like:
$output = explode("\n", ob_get_clean());
if ($output[0] && preg_match('%^#!\/%', $output[0]))
unset($output[0]);
echo join("\n", $output); // You need to echo this, since you lost your buffer
by doing ob_get_clean
