Really not sure what you mean by "modify the other mailing list
programs".
And nobody subscribed to this mailing list has agreed to have an
account on your new forum.
So no, I won't help you get their details.
Have a cracking day.

Subject: [PHP] FRench characters not displayed correctly
Hi all.
We have taken over a site and a problem we have is that French special
characters aren't displaying correctly, they are displaying a weird square
block.
I have checked the content type and it's as follows:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" >
I also notice that the "charset=iso-8859-1" is missing in the above meta
tag, could this be affecting the characters?
I have seen that there is no DOCTYPE declaration, could this be the problem
if this is omitted?
If you have any suggestions, please let me know.
TIA.
Angelo
Web: http://www.elemental.co.za
========================================
I have also found that we can do this:
<html lang="fr">
But I am interested in finding out if the doctype declaration is a
contributing factor.
Thanks
Angelo

You certainly wouldn't want both utf-8 and iso-8859-1 declared at the
same time. It sounds like what you want is iso-8859-1 and NOT utf-8.
Check the encoding of either your files or your database content. Also
check what headers PHP is sending to the browser. If you're using
Firefox you can check the page info to see what charset it thinks it
received.
Cheers,
Rob.

Neither will affect the character set used when rendering the page.
The meta http-equiv="Content-Type" in a page is ignored by the browser
if an http header with a Content-Type has already been sent. If you
bring up the page in Firefox, and hit Ctrl-I, I'll bet it says the page
is being displayed in ISO-8859-1 (well, not UTF8 at least).
I would check the default_charset setting in php.ini.

Thanks Robert,
I have the following headers:

GET /student/themes/english/locker_room/student.html? HTTP/1.1

-----------------------------
Now I see that the headers have:
Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7
Which to me seems like it is sending both ISO-8859-1 and UTF-8?
What else should I be checking for?
Could it be a PHP problem where PHP isn't decoding the characters properly?
Thanks again.

No, that's what kind of content the server is willing to accept from
various sources such as POST. You want the following somewhere near the
beginning of your script:
<?php
header( 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' );
?>

Rob.

Thanks again, but as far as I have read, it seems that UTF-8 has better
handling for French characters?
We have the following in our HTML page:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" >
Would the header not conflict with this meta tag?

You can't just change the header or meta tags and expect things to work.
The header must match the type of content you have. The point of th
eheader is to tell the browser what all those multi-byte sequences mean.
If you want to change to UTF-8 and your data is in ISO-8859-1 then you
need to convert the content from one type to the other (I usually use
iconv on the command-line). Until you do so, you should set your header
to whatever content type you have... I'm guessing ISO-8859-1 but maybe
you have UTF-8.
Cheers,
Rob.

Not really - I'm pretty certain ISO-8859-1 will cover all of the special
french characters. But it's irrelevant - if your code/pages are
written in UTF8, you won't get the desired result if you serve them as
ISO-8859-1.

No, your header didn't have a Content-Type listed, so I think your
meta-tag should work.

I think that is better done with the default_charset setting in php.ini.

I don't. But then I have several projects and some use utf-8 (preferred)
and some use iso-8859-1 (not preferred). I prefer it in the virtual host
config personally :)

Ah yes, that's what I meant of course. (I actually do everything in
UTF8 anyway).

Hello!
Seems that PHP gets more and more object oriented, which is good.
I am now running a course in PHP, using PHP 5, where we are going to
use the *DOM* interface. I am trying to teach them good OO practices,
meaning that we insistently hide properties and expose them as get or
set methods.
Looking at the PHPs *DOM* implementation, I see that many of the
properties are exposed directly, without even offering get methods.
1. Is there something I am misunderstanding orotherwise missing? (I
havenot used *DOM* in PHP before).
2.This poses a pedagogical problem for me as a teacher. How do I
explain this contradiction to my students?
Thanks

Hi,
I've got a problem with DateTime. I have a short code which gives an
error :
<CODE>
$date = new DateTime(date("d/m/Y"));
$date->modify("-1 month");
$mois_en_cours1 = $date->format("Y-m");
$date->modify("-1 month");
$mois_en_cours2 = $date->format("Y-m");
$date->modify("-1 month");
$mois_en_cours3 = $date->format("Y-m");
</CODE>
<ERROR>
<b>Fatal error</b>: Class 'DateTime' not found in
<b>/var/www2/dacg_visio/index.html</b> on line <b>244</b><br />
</ERROR>
If I look at the documentation :
http://fr3.php.net/manual/fr/function.date-modify.php
it seems to work if PHP version is above 5.1.0 (I am in 5.1.6 !).
Do you have any idea about this error (Debian/Apache2) ?
Do you have another way to obtain $mois_en_cours1, 2, 3 without
DateTime ?
Thank you very much.
David.

Pre-5.2 you need to explicitly say you want the DateTime class. See
the note on this page: http://fr3.php.net/manual/fr/datetime.installation.php
Also note that it's experimental at the moment and therefore not
recommended for production usage.

You've switched positions from "have nothing to do with" to "not
necessary". Prefacing your statement with "Correct" makes it appear
that you're merely re-affirming your original position.

There's nothing that you can achieve with PHP5 that you can't achieve
with PHP/FI either. Maybe it's time to scrap all this needless
complexity and return to our roots.
I've already given an example of how formally defined interfaces add
value and you chose to dismiss it on the grounds that there's no need
to check interfaces if you don't use interfaces. *Every* modular
system uses interfaces whether they're formally defined or not.

ok, s/interface/api/ if that makes you happier.
If you need a concrete example, lets say your app has a nifty
plugin system so third-parties can extend it. You have an API for
plugins to register themselves, and each plugin exposes a set of
methods that your application calls when necessary.
If you define an 'interface' for your API and each plugin implements
that interface, then if there's a plugin that doesn't implement it
properly you'll know as soon as the plugin loads.
If you don't formally define the interface, you're not going to know
that the plugin's wrong until the badly implemented method gets
called. And even then it might just introduce a hard to diagnose bug
rather than an obvious failure.

im with you here robin. i think part of the issue w/ the terminology,
interface, API, modular and such is that the terms are all somewhat
abstract. it just so happens that in php there is a concrete term as well.
this can lead to confusion. many times in conversation, its important to
specify particularly what one is speaking about so that others may follow
ones train of thought.
and indeed, in creating an 'api' suppose a set of 'services' based on the
http prtotocol, the HTTP methods (POST, GET, PUT, DELETE [typtically]) and
the values expected to be supplied over those methods comprise and
interface. just like a function. i would also say that the term interface
could be used interchangeably w/ 'method signature'. yes, there are many
things to which the term interface applies it can result in confusion during
technical conversations.

in PHP5 by default Objects are passed by reference and as you can see
at this graph passing array by reference in PHP5 is slower

im not sure if its worth the effort yet; thats sortof why im asking about it
on the list. obviously ill risk introduction bugs, which obviously, i dont
want to do... ill have to analyze the regression system as it stands. if
its decent, i might be able to use it as a benchmark utility and to test for
bugs after the mass conversion.

wow, thats a clever example. honestly, i dont think ive ever done that
before myself... but clearly that doesnt mean others havent in this
codebase. thanks for the insight.

I almost spit my water out when I saw that link directed at you. Your
work is famous! ;)
I don't have an actual answer as far as benchmarks go. I've been
converting all of my sites from php4 to 5 over the past 3 months
stripping out &'s as I go. I haven't noticed any differences myself
though. But then again I've been adding in type hints and visibility
too so I'm sure that isn't helping.
I'm always pimping Xdebug, so just remember it will show you where
your real bottlenecks are instead of guessing. *shrug*

It probably is, by reading the code from the malicious /tmp files
(/tmp should not allow any execution, by the way). However, more of
an issue is how the exploit code got on there in the first place.
Don't just settle for fixing an issue; solve the problem.
Otherwise, it'll just happen again and again.

Maybe I'm showing my ignorance here in programming... Maybe it's
because I delt with a kid who decided to scream for a good share of
the night and I'm sleep deprived :) But in my current system I have
this:
echo <<<HTML
<div>
<table border="1">
<tr>
<td><a href="?order=a">First Name</a></td>
<td><a href="?order=b">Last Name</a></td>
<td><a href="?order=c">Address 1</a></td>
<td><a href="?order=d">Address 2</a></td>
<td><a href="?order=e">City</a></td>
<td><a href="?order=f">State</a></td>
<td><a href="?order=g">Zip</a></td>
<td><a href="?order=h">Code</a></td>
<td><a href="?order=i">ID #</a></td>
HTML;
while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
//display the info using heredoc syntac
echo <<<HTML
<tr>
<td>{$row['FName']}</td>
<td>{$row['LName']}</td>
<td>{$row['Add1']}</td>
<td>{$row['Add2']}</td>
<td>{$row['City']}</td>
<td>{$row['State']}</td>
<td>{$row['Zip']}</td>
<td>{$row['XCode']}</td>
<td>{$row['Record']}</td>
HTML;
}
What I want to do is take that first block of code, the one with the
links for sorting, and instead of this: "<td><a href="?order=a">First
Name</a></td>" I want to put something more like this: "<td><a href="?
order=a">$FIELDNAMES[$field{$id}]</a></td>" So I can grab the field
names from the database, instead of hardcoding them into my program.
I think I am sleep deprived because the more I tried to clarify it...
the harder it got for me to understand :)
I need caffeine... Maybe a trip out to the gas station is in order
before I attempt to write more code....
<?PHP while($baby !=sleep){$caffeine = $critical}?>
or something like that :)

I took a quick look at it, and quickly realized you know more then
me :P I'll dig into it more today hopefully once the caffeine kicks in
better and I can make a full sentence without having it take me 5

The sentence to which he was referring was received in my inbox
exactly five minutes after the prior message, thus validating his
[jocular] statement. ;-P

I timed it that way... Put a few delays into my mailserver just so I
could hit the 5 minute mark :)
Now that the caffeine is kicking in I SHOULD be able to actually
function!

Don't feel so bad. Mine insists "nevermind" and "caffeinated"
aren't real words, but then suggests that some technical terms and
acronyms have been suggestions. And since no word in the English
language begins with FT, it defaults to FU.... and yes, my
spell-checker *does* see that as a real word.

Very good example, but I would remove data retrieval from the display of data.
<?php
$dataSet = array();
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$dataSet[] = $row;
}
# do some other stuff
# now display
# Check to see if there is anything in the dataSet
if ( count($dataSet) > 0 ) {
echo '<table>';
# Get the names of the columns from the first result set
$headers = array_keys($dataSet[0]);
# Print the column names
echo '<tr>';
foreach ( $headers AS $column_name ) {
echo "<th>{$column_name}</th>";
}
echo '</tr>';
# Now print your data
foreach ( $dataSet AS $row ) {
echo <<<ROW
<tr>
<td>{$row['FName']}</td>
<td>{$row['LName']}</td>
<td>{$row['Add1']}</td>
<td>{$row['Add2']}</td>
<td>{$row['City']}</td>
<td>{$row['State']}</td>
<td>{$row['Zip']}</td>
<td>{$row['XCode']}</td>
<td>{$row['Record']}</td>
</tr>
ROW;
}
echo '</table>';
}
?>

Both ideas worked great... Thank you!
Now I do still have one question, I decided that what Jim put up
worked a little bit better for me so I'm going off of his code, what I
want to do now though, is take this code:
foreach ( $dataSet AS $row ) {
echo <<<ROW
<tr>
<td>{$row['FName']}</td>
<td>{$row['LName']}</td>
<td>{$row['Add1']}</td>
<td>{$row['Add2']}</td>
<td>{$row['City']}</td>
<td>{$row['State']}</td>
<td>{$row['Zip']}</td>
<td>{$row['XCode']}</td>
<td>{$row['Record']}</td>
</tr>
ROW;
}
And turn it into some kind of a loop that would pull the info
dynamically so I can have something more like this:
<?PHP
while($dataSet <= $num_rows) {
//print dynamic fields based off of field names
echo <<<ROW
<tr>
<td>$dataSet['$field']</td>
</tr>
ROW;
}
?>
And what would print on the page would be something along the lines of:
<?PHP
echo <<<TEST
<tr>
<td>Jason</td>
<td>Pruim</td>
<td>My Address</td>
<td>My Other Address</td>
</tr>
TEST;
?>
Etc. Etc. Etc. I'm trying to avoid hardcoding things like field names
so that I can use this software for multiple customers without having
to completely customize it for everyone since so many parts will be
the same.
Maybe though I'm trying to abstract the wrong part of the program... I
could do it to a few other parts and just customize this one...
Need to think about that.
Any ideas are greatly appreciated :)
