You can use JSON_encode(array());

Try this:

Use the result with mktime to get the timestamp. I also checked
set_locale but that won't interfere with strtotime :(

Shawn,

I think the idea here was to get a timestamp from a date in that
format he was telling about.

After replying however, I noticed that strptime is only implemented in
PHP5. Sorry about that mate.

Couldn't see any other way. *nix strtotime is supposed to use locale.

$date = '20/12/1971';
$parts = explode('/', $date);
echo mktime(0 ,0, 0, $d[1], $d[0],$d[2])."\n";

Fixed that for me:

$date = '20/12/1971';
$d = explode('/', $date);
echo mktime(0 ,0, 0, $d[1], $d[0],$d[2])."\n";

I was bored. Just an example, and I named it _eur because I assume that
all European dates are this way, but some may have a / or a - or .
separator. intval() is to remove preceding 0 or it is treated as octal.

<?php

function strtotime_eur($date)
{
preg_match('|([0-9]{1,2})[/.-]([0-9]{1,2})[/.-]([0-9]{2,4})|',
$date, $parts);

     if(count($parts) != 4) {
         return false;
     }
     $d = intval($parts[1]);
     $m = intval($parts[2]);
     $y = intval($parts[3]);

return mktime(0 ,0, 0, $m, $d, $y);
}

Runs the same for me either way... under PHP4 and PHP5. You must have a
nice system, takes 22 seconds both ways on my Athlon 2400 :)

Ha, I tried again today, and now there's no difference. I'm thinking now
that this was some sort of page boundary issue, or something of the sort. On
the one hand it's a relief I can move on, on the other hand it's frustrating
because I know for a fact that I saw those differences, and this problem
might be happening for some of our customers.

I'll just blame windows, that always works :)

By the way, a 22 second run-time is definitely abnormal. I only have a 3 ghz
P4, a 3 year old machine. When I disable xdebug it takes 4.5 seconds.
Another by the way, while measuring the performance of this script I noticed
that wincachegrind's time reports are incorrect. It reported a cumulative
run-time of about one second. Kcachegrind (the KDE4 for windows version) did
report correct times, so I'll be using that from now on.

Maybe it's because I use Evolution for my mail client and it has
steadily increased it's CPU suckage over the years. I have no idea what
it does but these days I noticed it's eating a steady 8-12% of my
CPU :( Unfortunately I didn't like Thunderbird last time I checked.
Maybe I'll give Opera's mail client a go since I use the Opera browser
anyways.

strtotime() returns a unix timestamp (ie number of seconds since
1970ish. Nothing to do with the date object.

If you're sure that's the format of the date, this will do it...

list($day, $month, $year) = explode('/', $thedate);
$thetimestamp = mktime(0, 0, 0, $month, $day, $year);

I doubt this will have any sway on the contributors to this thread,
but I ran across a db normalization "rule of thumb" yesterday in a

until it works."

I lean towards finding a middle ground, so this makes sense to me.

in my haste i had also thought that would set the value to 0 every time the
function was called, heh.

Wow! Thanks guys! Here's what I ended up doing... To get...

Black on White - 1
  White on Black - 2
     Black on White - 3
     Black on White - 3
  White on Black - 2
     Black on White - 3

I had to do something like...

function doStuff()
  {
  static $callCount = 0;
  $callCount++;

  if($callCount%2)
     { echo 'white on black - '.$callCount; }
  else
     { echo 'black on white - '.$callCount; }

// Stuff that uses the depth count

$callCount--;
}

If I didn't put in the $callCount--; I ended up with something like this...

Black on White - 1
  White on Black - 2
     Black on White - 3
     White on Black - 4
  Black on White - 5
     White on Black - 6

I saw where it was said that "oh he said it wasn't recursive"... Sorry
I wasn't clearer. In my mind a "true" recursive function is a function
that operates on it's own output like a factorial... Not just a
function that is called inside itself.

This got me where I needed to be and it is GREATLY appreciated!

If the CRM app uses a browser, then it sounds like a problem that

You should take in account that your hosting company may _NOT_ allow

you.

Good luck

When making changes to Apache configuration read files, you have to RESTART APACHE before those changes take effect.

However you can use php's ini_set () function to set a number of settings on the fly that can be changed per page change.

You have to set it in your main php.ini, the one shown in phpinfo() or
set it in a .htaccess in the web dir if permitted. You can't just copy
a php.ini into a dir and expect php to use it.

I hadn't thought to, but I just did. As expected, it's reading it
from /etc/php5/apache2.

As this is (should be) being read from the user directory containing the
application instead of the global configuration file, I'd expect it to behave
more like the .htaccess file. The use of .htaccess to override apache
configurations doesn't require an apache restart.

I do know that on bluehost, they actually encourage people to use their own
php.ini file in their web directory ... and users certainly don't have the
authority to restart apache.

That said - just for grins, I *DID* restart apache2. It made no difference.

(from before) /etc/php5/apache2 is a centralized directory; i surprised you
even have access to it on a shared host. do you have your own instance of
linux? either way i sincerely doubt thats the web directory. i would try
putting a .htaccess file in your web root.

php_flag magic_quotes_gpc = Off

when you look at the output of phpinfo() there will be 2 columns. one has
the heading 'master value' the other has the heading 'local value' is the
local value different than the master value? it should be if the .htaccess
file is working correctly (though you many not have permission to use them
[but it is typical to allow php configuration via .htaccess on shared
hosts]).

Some web hosts allow you have have your own local php.ini. You just
create an empty php.ini file in your main web directory. After you do
that, the loaded configuration file shown in the output from phpinfo()
will show the path to the local php.ini file. Then, just put the
specific directive in there, such as:

magic_quotes_gpc = Off

This works on some hosts.

I never said it was the web directory ... I said that's where php.ini is
being
loaded from. The web directory is /var/www ... that's where the php.ini I
*WANT* loaded is. ...and, yes, I have my own Linux machine that I use for
testing.

I've tried that now, and it does work. I was trying to do it through a local
php.ini because I know that's the way bluehost makes us do it, and there are
several websites that document it as a working manner.

I do thank everyone for their help with this.

Hi Everyone,

SO it's friday, I'm tired, and I can't seem to think straight... I am
attempting to do some very basic math with some arrays... Here's the
pseudo code that I'm working with:

NumberOfPieces * PieceWeight = TotalWeight

explode total weight to get tenth's of pounds, then divide tenth's of
pounds by 16 to grab ounces.

Display TotalWeight # Exploded Ounces.

Which I have working just fine for a single set of boxes...

My problem is I want to be able to automatically add say 50 boxes in a
form to process the weight of each route...

So what I need to do is probably use some kind of a counter to loop
through my $RoutePieces array and multiply by the $PieceWeight?
$PieceWeight is a static number.

Now let me show you some abbreviated code to try and explain what I'm
using right now:
<?PHP
        $i= "0";
        $num= "2";
        $PieceWeight = $_POST['txtPieceWeight'];
        $RoutePieces[] = $_POST['txtRoutePieces'];
        $RouteNumber[] = $_POST['txtRoute'];

        $totalWeight = $PieceWeight * $RoutePieces/16;
        $weightExplode = explode('.', $totalWeight);
        //$weightOunces = ((float)('.' . $weightExplode[1])) * 16;
        // Use stut's method... Seems cleaner
        $explodeOunces = ($totalWeight - intval($totalWeight)) * 16;

while($i <= $num){
echo <<<HTML

                <p>
        Route Number:<input type="text" name="txtRoute[$i]" size="4" value
="{$RouteNumber[$i]}"> Number of pieces: <input type="text"
name="txtRoutePieces[$i]" size="4"
value="{$RoutePieces[$i]}"><label>Total weight of route:
{$weightExplode[0]} # {$explodeOunces} Ounces</label>
        </p>

HTML;

        $i++;
        echo $i;
                }
?>

the $_POST array has the proper values stored properly... I just can't
seem to figure out how to work with the values... Any ideas? Or slaps
on the back of the head to wake me up a little? :)

I need help :P

Rather than a counter, you could use foreach:

foreach ( $RoutePieces as $key => $value )
{
$blah = $value * $PieceWeight;
}

Make sense?

What??

Why do you want tenth's of pounds? Just divide pounds by 16 and
you'll get ounces.

How much does each box weight and how many boxes? That's all you need.

Is $PieceWeight is a static number?

The last time I checked, the cost per oz for shipping depends upon
the weight. The more weight, the less the cost per ounce. Is that not
true?

As for the code, that's pretty simple.

The idea make sense, and I think it will work. But I'm getting this
error:

[Fri May 9 13:19:33 2008] [error] PHP Fatal error: Unsupported
operand types in /Volumes/RAIDer/webserver/Documents/dev/weightcalc/
index.php on line 22

foreach ($RoutePieces as $key => $value){
$testWeight = $value * $PieceWeight; <-------Line 22
}

Some quick trying tells me that the problem is my "*" I don't remember
having this problem before. Is there another character I should use to
multiply with? :)

Thanks for looking!

It's actually for a weight calculator that we use for some of our
mailings. when you take .226 and multiply that by 464 you get 104.864
ounces.

I need to be able to display that as: 6 # 13.824 Ounces.

the routes can have anywhere from 1 piece to 800+ pieces. and we can
have as few as 1 route to as many as 50 or 60+

Normally yes, but not in this case :) I'm using it so I don't have to
sit there and count out 464 postcards. I can just throw them on my
scale and get the total weight.

Then it's a simple "It's a friday thing" for me... My wife keeps
rubbing in that today is her last day of work until mid august... :P

Well, that explains it. Now, it's Friday for me.

You know, if you take the total weight and divide that by the number
of gorillas per lamp-pole you'll go back in time. I'm totally lost.

Sorry I couldn't be more help.

Cheers,

Then I think you want to use the mod operator:

(I'm assuming .226 is the cost per ounce and 464 is the total number of
ounces)

$pounds = intval( .226 * 464 / 16 );
$ounces = ( .226 * 464 ) % 16;

It sure is Friday. This assumption doesn't make any sense!

Yeah... and my work day is almost done! SO Happy Friday to you all!

Basically though, .226 is the weight of a single piece. we get it by
weighing 100 pieces, and then dividing the total weight by 100. that
gives us the weight of a single piece in a tenth of a pound. And I
need to display in pounds and ounces. I have that part figured out, I
just need to fight with it so I can do it without having to type out
in the code 50 fields to add the routes together :)

Or look at the bottom of ANY message posted to the list and look for

Just a thought :)

Yeah, I got that sent to me as well.

It's interesting when people are smart enough to subscribe, but
dummy-up when exiting. Do you think this list saps intelligence?

I have an xml file with a cdata element like the one below. How would I
use the php xml functions to extract that cdata and save it as a pdf file?

The code I have is this...

$in = fopen("test.xml", 'r');
$XMLStr = '';
while (!feof($in)) {
  $LineNumber++;
  $XMLStr .= fgets($in);
}
$XML = simplexml_load_string($XMLStr);
foreach($XML->props->attachments->attach as $Attachment){
  print_r($Attachment);
}
The output looks like this...

SimpleXMLElement Object
(
    [attributes] => Array
        (
            [id] => 2
            [display-name] => 207069.pdf
            [file-name] => 207069.pdf
            [obj-type] => 1
            [system] => 0
        )

)

Hi,

i'm trying to build a class that sorts a multidimensional array.
I'm using the php function "usort".

I declared the comparision function as a method of my class but i'm unable to give it as argument to the function usort.

this "usort($this->arr, $this->cmpi)" gaves the following error: usort() [function.usort]: Invalid comparison function

i tried to do "usort($this->arr, 'cmpi')" but it does not work either.

Thanks

If it's anything like other functions, try this:

usort($this->arr, array($this, 'cmpi'));

That's fine, just be sure not to include the file more than once per
request or you'll get error messages regarding redeclaration of
functions. You can also use the _once variations of include or require
to get around this but bear in mind this causes a small performance hit.
