Re: [PHP] problem connecting php and mysql
Hi, i'm not so good at running php on microsoft stuff, but it seems you dont have mysql support compiled in or not tuned php.ini properly.

Re: [PHP] problem connecting php and mysql
Hi, I had this same problem and I followed the the following instructions found in the online manual on installing PHP for windows: If you've run other versions of PHP in the past and are having trouble upgrading to PHP5, particularly in loading the dynamic link library 'php_mysql.dll' (despite following all the guidance in this documentation), try the following: 1.) REMOVE old copies of 'libmysql.dll' from your WINDOWS and WINDOWS\system32 folders (check BOTH places). 2.) Verify that your System Path is correctly configured to search the 'C: \PHP5' and 'C:\PHP5\ext'. To do this on WinXP, go to your Control Panel, open System, click Advanced tab, click on Environment Variables, under (lower pane) 'System variables', select 'Path', and then click Edit. Your system path should look something like: %SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%; C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 4. 1\bin;C:\PHP5;C:\PHP5\ext; Because the system path checks the Windows and System32 folders for dll's *before* checking the PHP folder, old copies of php_mysql.dll will load up first and foul your PHP initialization if you don't remove them. === Hope this helps.

So I think I need to prevent the pages from beeing cached. How this can be done? I'm totally inexperinced with this stuff. The authentication is a 2 part task.

One rather brute force way to get round this is to append a unique (per-session at least) id to the querystring of each page, which means that the page will be requested from the server rather than the cache. I believe this works in Opera as well as other browsers. There is more to cache-control and expiring pages than meets the eye, do a search on it or read the rfc.

Hello 1.I dont have this mean I want this: for example I write this function :myfunction ($para1, $para2, $para3=123) .And I want to make $para1 optional that If I didnt write it (for example:myfunction(1,123) ) It does not make problem 2.I want to see all of header not HTTP_USER_AGENT?

You can pass fewer arguments than specified in a function, so just make the optional ones to the right of the required ones. Also if you, say myfunction ($para1, $para2, $para3=123) it makes $para3 hold a default value if nothing's passed 2.How I can see apache or IIS headers? Look for $HTTP_ followed by the header name in upper case and with any -s replaced by _, eg.

Hi All,
yep, basics are good, hence my following the tut at webmonkey(so I can
learn the basics), and I obviously missed that little error. Cheers.
P.S. Some people are mailig me direct. That's great, but, I'd prefer you
reply in here, so all can see/comment. Cheers, again.
Some people have intelligent mail agents that rely on mailing list headers.

[PHP] Problems with HPHP on AIX and Solaris
Hi All,
I have interesting problems with PHP/Hardened PHP 4.3.11 on Apache 2.0.54 on
AIX 5.1 and 5.2, and on Solaris 9.
I have a directory permissions scheme which has the absolute minimum of rights
for the web server to work, that is a directory gets the permissions
drwx--s--x (711) with the suid bit set. This is done because many users have
ftp access to the system and for some directories in the system it should not
be possible for those users to do a directory listing. Changing the
permissions to include read permission is one solution that works, but in
this environment it is unacceptable for us. It's also unacceptable because
this was working with previous versions of HPHP.
My first problem is the behaviour of Hardened PHP in PHP 4.3.10 and 4.3.11 on
AIX. This was built using gcc 3.3.3 from the AIX toolbox. Everything was
fine with Hardened PHP 4.3.9. For what ever reason, with the above directory
permissions, HPHP is not able to read files within that directory structure
if they are included relative to the working directory of a script running
within a subdirectory (see the example scripts and associated directory
structure I have given later on). If I run this on Linux with HPHP, it works
fine, as does the normal PHP on AIX. Strangely enough, if I use the absolute
path to the included file, the file is included without problems.
My second problem is HPHP on Solaris 9 on a Blade 1500 - it just doesn't work
with the apache process seg faulting aparently during the initialisation
stage. If I use the normal PHP everything runs fine. These were built using
gcc 3.3.2 from sunfreeware.com. I have tried running it in gdb, but gdb
itself seg faults. So then (genius here) I ran apache inside gdb inside gdb
which caught gdb's own seg fault and indicated a problem with libc.so.1.
Applying the latest Solaris 9 patch cluster from Sun and rebuilding apache
and HPHP did not change anything. At the moment I'm one step away from
opening a bug report at Sun.
I would like to know if any one else with similar systems has similar problems
and maybe a solution. I would bother Steffan Esser, the creator of HPHP,
with this problem but I've bothered him enough already and really need to
know if I'm the only one with such problems. I also don't want to open a bug
report at Sun if the problem is somewhere else.
If anyone has any questions about this problem, please ask. I will be most
grateful for any help anyone can give me.
Markus

Hi!
I'm back hahaha :D
I'm making functions to calculate the duration (only laboral days)
between 2 dates and the initial and final date between a duration give
me in laboral days.
I use the following function to make the diference between 2 dates:
function fecDiferenciaFechas($fecFechaInicio,$fecFechaFin)
{
$fecFechaInicio=strtotime($fecFechaInicio);
$fecFechaFin=strtotime($fecFechaFin);
if ($fecFechaFin == -1 || $fecFechaInicio == -1)
{
return false;
}
$iDiferencia = $fecFechaFin - $fecFechaInicio;
//Inicializamos la variable
$iDias = 0;
//Devolvemos la diferencia en dias
return ($iDiferencia/86400);
}
The problem is that with a duration of 220 the return is 219.958333,
where im losing precision?

you can access cookies by using the superglobal variable (as an array) $_COOKIE.
if ( isset($_COOKIE['cookiename']) )
{
// do some stuff. cookie with cookiename is set.
}
i don't know the best method to check how many cookies are set but i
guess you count the array $_COOKIE.
$number = count($_COOKIE)
hope this helps.

Re: [PHP] step by step learning
hey paul, php is not like html. HTML is a markup language and PHP is a scripting languange. Once you get through installing PHP, it is not like HTML where you start with the basic tags and learn them one by one. PHP has functions and you need to know which funcitons you need for the right job. I would recommend phpfreaks.com. That is where I started and probably a beginners book or a reference book. If you do not have any programming experience, you are best off getting a beginners guide which will explain concepts along with the code. PHP is easy to use, but not quite as easy as HTML and CSS. PHP also has an online manual with examples which is on par with no other manual that I have found (with the exceptionn of maybe MySQL). So looking up functions online on their site is also a good starting place. jzf Paul Kain wrote: Hi there are there any sites online that show one how to learn php in a step by step fashion?

Consider the following as a thought experiment... How many rows in the array? Is the number even or odd? How many columns in the array? Is the number even or odd? Does the number of rows match the number of columns? Take the number of rows and divide in half. If the number is not an integer round it up to get the mid row. If the number is an integer, add 1 to get a mid row. Take data in (0,0) and place in (0, mid row#) of new array Take data in (0,1) and place it in (1, mid row#-1) of new array And so on Can it be done? Yes, it can.

The basic plan is this: - Create a web page with the record set (as you're already doing it) - Save this web page to your server's cache (either roll your own or you can use Cache_lite or whatever) - Use an 8 day expiration on this file - Then once a week you update this cache file from a cron job - Now the key part: you alter your robots.txt file so that the spiders will not go to the dynamically created page, but rather they follow to the cached / static page.

[PHP] problem with array diff, need to reindex array according to key
HI all, I am using the array_diff function. The problem im having is the array that gets returned. Well here's an example: this is where i assign the values to two different arrays $a[]=0; $a[]=1; $a[]=2; $a[]=3; $b[]=1; $b[]=4; $b[]=0; $diff = array_diff_assoc($a, $b); then compare the arrays print_r ($diff); then print the difference between array $a and $b Array ( [2] = 2 [3] = 3 ) now my problem is that although the values are correct the array it returns, they values have the same keys as the origional array. Now my problem is that I need to get the return array to be reindexed because I want to loop through it from element 0 till count($diff). How do I reindex the returned array by key, to accomplish the above. thanks in advance -- Angelo Zanetti -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] Persistent Database Connections
Thanks, Philip (and Richard also), for offering your impressions. Per Philip's suggestion, I ran ab (Apache Benchmark) to stress test the page that loads my persistent connection. Depending on the parameters I set for ab, I was able to increase the number of connections from my initial 9 to anywhere between 15 and 25. This number varied from one test to another - even if I left the ab parameters the same. I probably could have boosted the total connections even further by raising the number of connections/requests initiated by ab. So, while I still don't have a rock-solid way to predict just how many connections will be opened for a given number of users, at least I'm not stuck at 9 :-) I guess it took using an automated approach to simulating server load (e.g., ab) to force Apache to open additional connections to the database. Interestingly, I also observed during my testing that some connections opened by Apache were subsequently closed. So, this seems to answer my other question re. whether persistent connections stay open forever. I guess they don't. What seems clear is that Apache decides when to terminate active connections, not the database. Thanks again. Mike Philip Hallstrom [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] What I am baffled by is the fact that the total nunber of connections between the web server and my database seems to max out at 9. Why 9? Not that I have a problem with this number. I just want to understand how this limit was reached so that I might predict how the application will perform in a production capacity. I can't think of a reason it would max out at 9 other than perhaps you really don't have more than 9 connections open. My understanding is that Apache will open a connection per child, per database connection where a connection is made up of the host, user, and database. How many apache processes are running when you take this measurement? There's no gaurantee that each of them will have hit your web app and start up there own connection. You might use something like ab (apache benchmark) to hit a page that initiates a persistent connection to see what happens as the number of apache processes grows. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Probably not the best solution, but might work for you. --Codefox -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

It is just a matter that some library (in my case the COM port library) sits listening in place of the idle process. It is a matter of sorting out just what is not 'playing fair', but the overall performance of the machine is not affected since the 'rogue idle loop' simply gives up control when something more pressing comes along. I eventually got the COM driver replaced with one from another source, and the problem went away, but it was not really a problem - more an annoyance ;) -- Lester Caine - L.S.Caine Electronic Services -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Can this code go faster?
I've looked in the docs and don't see anything for this per se...
I need to convert a binary number of arbitrary length to a signed
integer.
This is how I'm doing it now:
CODE
function bin2int ($bin) {
if (substr($bin,0,1) == 1) {
$val = 0 - bindec(substr($bin,1)); // NEGATIVE
} else {
$val = bindec(substr($bin,1)); // POSITIVE
}
}
echo bin2int(1101).'br /';
echo bin2int(10001101);
OUTPUT
13
-13
As you can see, if the most-significant bit is 1, then the rest of the
value is negative. If the first bit is 0, then the rest is positive. Is
there a better, faster (execution-wise) way of doing this? Maybe a more
built-in function of PHP I missed? It's something that my script will
be doing thousands of times, so I am concerned about speed.
Thanks!
...Rene

RE: [PHP] Timetables
On Mon, April 25, 2005 3:14 pm, Richard Collyer said: This is probably more of a db question but... Probably. I am writing an employee database for work. The majority of it is simple enough however I am stuck on the timetabling. It has to be done in PHP as there are 40 plus team leaders whose computers are all old and have IE on them as one similarity. Also any changes I make to the program are repllicated over those machines instantly. Hr. We have ~1500 Employees. There are 4 shifts which overlap. My idea of doing this was to have a database with each record being a day for a particular employee. Recording ID, Start Time, Finish Time in TimeStamp. Okay. So I could then do a search for the number of employees whose shift start or finished in that particular day. If there is a start and a finish left add up the hours, if only a start do start - midnight and if only a finish do midnight - finish. Is this a sensible way to do it? Or can anyone suggest a better tried and tested way. Doing what, exactly? I mean, it kinda depends on what you want to *DO* other than the search you give as an example... Which, by the way, I would recommend coding more like this: 1. Find everybody whose shift STARTED on date (D). 2. Subtract their finish time from start time for their hours (H) on that date (D). You then don't have to muck around with midnight and shifts that start/end on different days. You just pretend that their shift happend on the date of the start time, and that's the day you associate with that shift, no matter when it ended. This simplifies everything else you're going to do with the data/queries immensely. Just have to make sure DST doesn't cause any problems.

Hey, am a bit stumped as to how to do this: We are allowing users to make categories , then they upload their pics to one of these categories. Should I have two tables: user_categories pic_details or should I use one table for both? Seems silly , but my heads feeling loopy :-p Thanks, Ryan -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

[PHP] Re: phpclasses formerly Flash integration
Hi, several classes that provide different kinds of Flash integration: http://www.phpclasses.org/browse/class/102.html True, but going there has become a real pain in the ...you know where coz you get a crapload of popups, snip I understand you do not like ads. I do not like them either, but the truth is that if the site had no ads, it would had been closed by now because it takes money and all my time to keep the site up and running. /snip Nobody really likes ads but we have all come to accept them to a certain degree, I just feel it is very unresponsible and greedy of site owners to empty a cartload of ads onto their site once it gets popularthe page becomes 10% of content and 90% advertisments. snip I am sure that most users that care about this site would not like this site to be closed. So, think about the ads as a better solution then having no site at all. /snip I like the site too and wouldnt want it closed down, but lowering the number of ads per page would still keep the site running quite peacefully and money in your pocket, with the number of ads right now I'm betting you're looking more to saving up to buy a Ferrari asap than getting enough dough to run the site and a bit in your pocket. /snip The good news for users that really care is that, if all goes well, in the second semesters the site subscribers will have the option to access the site with ads by adhereing to the paid subscriptions plan. /snip Sounds good, will the developers who contributed to the site too have to pay 5$ per month or do they get an account for free? after all, without them the number of classes on your site would probably be less than the number of cousins I have :-) snip Subscribers that do not want to adhere to the paid subscriptions will still be able to access the same site resources as before, only with ads though. /snip Of course, those ads are never going to go less even after you run a paying service, right? snip Nobody will be required to pay anything, but people that want to get rid of the ads and benefit from other services will still have an option. I don't know how to make it more fair than this, but I am always open to suggestions. /snip Cool, heres one: when you open your paid service lower the number of ads on the pages for non paying subscribers, you are making money off the paying clients...so why not? As for expenses...last time I checked bandwidht and hosting charges are wayyy down, so even if you are on a dual xion 2.8ghz with a 100mbps connection and 1000gb bandwidth per month...it shouldnt cost you more than $337 per month BUT, since your site is so popular and related to computing and hosting, making a deal with the hosting companies shouldnt be a problem at all.which is good for you, but still does not explain the bonanza of ads per page. Bandwidth shouldnt be all that much of a problem either as you have more mirrors than a funny house at a carnival. snip I appreciate the time and patience of people that bother to make criticisms, especially if they show they are concerned with presenting viable solutions for the problems that they face. /snip And I appreciate you taking the time to answer my criticisms, I hope my suggestions are viable to you although i somehow dont think you would think so. snip I recommended the site to a pal of mine who is starting on php (with just a book and a few web links, i told him to join the list if he has probs) and he downloaded that cursorware or whatever from phpclasses...then i had to help him get the crap off his machine I am so sorry that your friend clicked on those ads and downloaded that software, but for the record the PHP Classes does not serve any of those downloads. As a matter of fact those ads are intermediate pages served by the advertising agency company. /snip I think thats a pretty poor excuse because you know quite well what the ad company is going to be serving on YOUR sites pages, those full page ads are *only* displaying the screensavers or icons from those junk companies that are installing spyware. Would you say the same thing if they were serveing _hardcore porn_ pictures from there? The bottom line is this: you can easily reduce the number of ads on that site without hurting yourself in any way, but you have decided to take the RIAA way and thump the very people who made your product a success just because you can and greedyness.. but please correct me if I am wrong.anybody?

He has worked hard for any success he has gained and for you to take him on over it is beyond comprehension. What is the motivation for your site, coinpass.com? Is it to make a profit? I have absolutly nothing against a developer or site making money if the person worked hard or not is not the issue at allI mentioned this in my very first mail. If he indeed buys a Ferrari I would still be happy for the guy, he has a very good site and i used to frequent it quite often. The part that irritates me is the amount of ads per page and those big ads that install spyware on a persons computerisnt it all of us who helped make the site popular by using it as often that we did (because we gained from it of course) and recommending it to other people (which we didnt gain at all...we jsut felt good about it)...and now we get screwed with a ton of ads. All I say is, he can still do very well while at the same time reducing the ads so its not such a PITA per page. Regards -Ryan -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.

[PHP] handling a user pressing browser's back button
Currently I have an application with PHP scripts that passes POST variables to keep track of ID's of records, the processing mode and such. I totally didn't design it to handle when a user hits the Back button in the browser...everything is tightly controlled...The user clicks on links/buttons to take actions. So far the database updates are fine and almost everything behaves correctly when the user hits the back button. However, I do have one page that shows a list of records. The user clicks Edit and the list is shown again, but this time with the selected record as Editable fields. If the user presses the Browser's Back button, the record still appears as Editable. This is just one of those cases. What have people done in the past to deal with states and such and keeping these things straight when the user hits the BACK button? -James -- -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
