[PHP] trouble with generating the file attachment
Hi, I have the two files which I send as an attachment. One is simple form with a file upload box. The other is the corresponding PHP file which sends the information via e-mail. I used the code provided here (http://pt.php.net/de/imap_mail_compose) but something must be wrong.

Don't create a table for every song Have a `songs` table containing all of the songs. Something like: CREATE TABLE songs (songID INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, artist VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL, title VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY(songID)); (simplified) and another table `comments` like this: CREATE TABLE comments (commentID INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, songID INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL, comment TEXT NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY(commentID), KEY(songID)); and another `ratings` like this: CREATE TABLE ratings (ratingID INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, songID INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL, rating TINYINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY(ratingID), KEY(songID)); That's why it's called a *relational* database. If you're using InnoDB you can even define the relations between the tables using foreign keys. Go to http://dev.mysql.com/doc/en/mysql/ and have a good read of the MySQL manual, it will be very helpful for you. Please don't just copy-paste the above table definitions, they're meant to be modified to suit your needs.

[PHP] include file to global scope

Claudio wrote: Hi, I'm using PHP 5. I have a class operation that includes php files. Is there a way to include this files to global scope? So that difined vars and functions are global accesseble? first off I would recommend that you 'pollute' your global scope as little as possible. secondly could you describe what you are trying to do and why exactly - stuff like this has been solved before but its hard to recommend a strategy when one doesn't know what the underlying idea/direction is that said the solution will probably involve the use of the 'global' keyword. I saw that some PHP functions have a context parameter, is something like this in eval or include possible? I think you mean then 'context' param related to functions that work with streams - this is not AFAIK related to [variable] 'scope'. also eval() sucks (unless there is no other way to do something, in which case its lovely ;-).

If your PHP config allows, you can probably perform a getimagesize directly on the URL, but I've not tried this. #3 Trickier, less expensive than #2, but balls-on accurate: fopen() the URL (after suitable validation) and grab the header (the first few KB).

[PHP] Hidden Form Help
Hi- I'm in a situation where I'm required to deal with a hidden form. The background details are exhausting, but the gist is: one form is auto-generated and lacks proper formatting. It was part of an open source package that DID NOT allow templating. So to keep using the application engine, but provide formatting, I created a CSS class to hide the unformatted form while displaying the formatted form. When submitting data to the database this doesn't seem to cause any issues. It accepts data based on the fieldvalues and ids. But when retrieving data to repopulate the form, what happens is that the hidden form gets the values and the displayed form does not. http://nahic.ucsf.edu/phpESP/survey.php login= Wisconsin Basically, if you complete the required field (state), fill out some random data, hit save, then select resume from the info page provided. You'll get back an empty form. But if you look at the code you'll see that the hidden form has the values. So I have a few questions: 1) Is there anyway to echo data from one field to the next, especially if the field (name or id) are exactly the same?? (i.e. field=state value=Wisconsin; if the field state is then repeated somewhere else on the page, can the value, Wisconsin, also be automatically repeated. 2) If yes, to the above can PHP do this and how? or is this something requiring Javascript or some other coding. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Issues with backslashes and GET data
I use a php page which is supposed to return records from a database table limited to the servername specicified in a drop down menu. A servername may contain a backslash e.g. Server1\SQL1. When this data is returned from the URL e.g. $server = $_GET['server']; The name is returned as Server1\\SQL1, so the search fails. I've tried using a regular expression to remove one of the backslashes: $server = ereg_replace(\\, \, $server); but I can't get this to work either. Any suggestions welcome, I'm running out of ideas.

Re: [PHP] include file to global scope
first off I would recommend that you 'pollute' your global scope as
little as possible.
I agree at all! Thats my opinion, and i don't use global variables at all.
The problem is, other people do. And if I need to use their code I must
include it.
that said the solution will probably involve the use of the 'global'
keyword.
Yes, see example files 1 and 2. This files are very simple, but shows the
problem. Naturly the decision what file to include an when is complexer than
that.
The file2.php represents a large standalone old php file. Doesn't maintend
by me. It works fine.
The file1.php5 represents a newer application. File2 will not work, because
$abc is not a global var.
Ok, I could search for all declared vars and add a global to it. Thats not
realy a nice solution.
Do anyone have a better Idea?
Claudio
file1.php5:
-
?php
class testInc {
public static function incFile($x) {
return include_once($x);
}
}
testInc::incFile('file2.php');

-
file2.php:
-
?php
$abc = true;
function anotherOne() {
global $abc;
if ($abc) {
echo 'it works';
} else {
echo 'failure';
}
}
anotherOne();

[PHP] Report generators
I was looking for a report generator library and found a good one called agata. What I need (and the library does not provide) is the ability to export the generated report in doc and excel format. The library does exports the reports in openoffice Write format but this would require to post-process the generated file in order to convert it into doc. As for excel, a possible solution would be to use the CSV format but is not a good solution either. Does anybody knows any other library which exports into pdf,doc and excel formats?

Re: [PHP] include file to global scope
Claudio wrote:

yes - but its heavy to do (which ever way you do it).
basically you need to either call a commandline php script
via exec() (or something similar) e.g.
exec('php /path/2/your/script.php'); // read the manual to
// find out how to get you output/data
or also go through the command line and use a tool like 'wget'
to call another url e.g:
exec('wget http://domain.com/script.php');
OR you could use file_get_contents() (or something similar to do what wget
does directly from within php
$output = file_get_contents('http://domain.com/script.php');
lots of possibilities - given what you are trying to do I doubt
that any possiblity is optimal - shoehorning other applications
into your own as standalone modules is an art form ;-)

[PHP] Removing Items from an Array
Hi all, I'm really struggling here! I have a large, multi-dimensional array that I want to clean-up a bit before committing to a database. I want to remove quite a bit of the array but using the KEYs not the values. I know the keys I want to keep and I know the keys I want to get rid of. I want to keep the structure and sequence of the array in tact. All of the array traversing functions in PHP seem to either: only work on the values, or do not allow the removal of elements of the array! Can anyone offer a clue bat to a tired old array walker!

[PHP] SOAP WSDL location
This is a minor thing that's been troubling me, making it difficult to deploy a salesforce.com SOAP client across multiple projects. Salesforce is a particular interest because its WSDL files are NOT available directly online - you have to download and save local copies manually. When constructing a SOAPClient object, the WSDL parameter provided is treated like a URL (because it will usually BE a URL). For 'local' URLs, it searches the current directory, including any relative path that it uses. However, because it is fundamentally a URL and not a file request like an include, it does not search the include path. The net result of this is that I'm having to copy my WSDL files into every place that my class library is called from because the URL resolution will only ever look in the calling directory and not in the include path that allowed it to find my classes. An alternative would be to allow providing the WSDL as a literal string, probably read using file_get_contents() which does support using the include path. A worse solution is to provide the WSDL contents as the response to a separate HTTP call (i.e. act like the WSDL is online after all). This would work, but it's way less efficient. I can't use an absolute path as it's deployed in multiple configurations on multiple servers, and config is bad enough already. Now before I report this as a bug/feature request, does anyone have any better ideas?

Re: [PHP] Removing Items from an Array
If I understand what you're asking, then maybe this will help:
$arrset1 = array(Apples = 3, Oranges = 5, Apricots = 1);
$arrset2 = array(Couches = 6, Chairs = 2, Benches = 5);
$alldataarr[Fruits] = $arrset1;
$alldataarr[Furniture] = $arrset2;
Say we want to remove Chairs, and let's do it the hard way:
foreach ($alldataarr as $key = $data) {
foreach ($data as $subkey = $subdata) {
if ($subkey == Chairs) {
unset($alldataarr[$key][$subkey]);
}
}
}
using foreach $arr as $key = $data you can get the key/index name as well as
the actual value stored in that part of your array. Then all you have to do is
refer back up to the main array using the current $key/$subkey values as your
indexes.
Basic example, but I think you can modify this to work with what you're doing.
Let me know if you have any questions about this example.

Hi all,
I'm really struggling here! I have a large, multi-dimensional array that
I want to clean-up a bit before committing to a database.
I want to remove quite a bit of the array but using the KEYs not the
values. I know the keys I want to keep and I know the keys I want to get
rid of. I want to keep the structure and sequence of the array in tact.
All of the array traversing functions in PHP seem to either: only work
on the values, or do not allow the removal of elements of the array!
Can anyone offer a clue bat to a tired old array walker!
Thanks
Alan

[PHP] Possible bug with imagettftext and imageft text when imagealphablending is false
I have been attempting to write a dynamic text replacement script that would generate transparent PNGs using gd, and it works fine except when one of the characters in a font has parts of it that overhang into the previous characters. You can see what I mean in this test script: ?php $img = imagecreatetruecolor(200, 200); imagealphablending($img, false); $trans = imagecolortransparent($img); imagefilledrectangle($img, 0, 0, 400, 400, $trans); $green = imagecolorallocate($img, 6, 68, 0); imagettftext($img, 30, 0, 10, 50, $green, carolingia.ttf, Linux); header(Content-type: image/png); imagesavealpha($img, true); imagepng($img); imagedestroy($img); ? The result can be seen at http://ethilien.net/tests/text.php When you compare the text with what it should look like when I comment out the imagealphablending($img, false); line here http://ethilien.net/tests/text2.php you can see that the end of the 'u' is cut off. I think that this is because the lower-left slash of the 'x' overlaps it and causes it to be overwritten. This might be a bug in GD and not PHP, but I wanted to see if anyone has encountered this problem before or if I'm just not doing something right.

Recently, I asked my hosting provider when they are going to switch to
PHP5. They replied that it will not happen any time soon, since they

So ask them to move your account from the old server to the new server
and you get PHP5.
No big deal.
?php //parse this with mod_php4
function class_method($var){ }
?
?php5 //parse this with mod_php5
class clazz implements Something{
function method($var) {
}
}
?
You'd need to have:
?php //don't care which PHP
?php4 //only PHP4 specific code
?php5 //only PHP5
Then, the PHP Module would need to have both PHP4 and PHP5, and
conditionally execute vanilla/4/5 code within your page as it
processed it.
Anybody who's ever had to maintain C code with a bunch of conditional
platform-specific #ifdef code knows just how BAD a solution this is.
It's fine for an occasional, simple, minor difference at the beginning.
Then it turns into a nightmare of depedencies after a very brief period.
I don't think it's out of line for a host to NOT upgrade an existing
computer with 200+ clients, many of whom PROBABLY have installed and
not updated god-knows-what stupid Forum/Blog ware that will break and
have their clients all mad at them. Some of those packages probably
don't even HAVE PHP5-compatible versions yet, or at least not verions
you'd want to install on a production server.
Seems to me that your host should have offered to switch you to one of
the new PHP5 boxes, however, so you could have PHP5 if you want it.
Then everybody would be happy.

[PHP] array_slice and for loop problem
Hello,
I'm using a for loop to iterate through an array and slice parts of
the array and add into another array.
When array_slice is called the variable $i is not being substituted
with the current value of
$i and the $output array is empty after running the script. Can
someone look at the code below and give me a clue as to why this
substitution is not happening? If I uncomment the echo $i; statement
the value of $i is printed just fine.
Thanks,
Rod
Here's my code:
$number = count ($int_range[start]);
//echo $number;
for ($i = 0; $i = $number; $i++) {
//echo $i;
$output = array_slice ($textArray, $int_range[start][$i],
$int_range[end][$i]);
}

rendering. Since it was erroring on me during DOM creation, I feel
like I'm going around it to put it into a format it likes but then on
display via XSL transformation, I will have to convert it back. Or am
I missing something?

[PHP] Re: Hidden Form Help
To answer your questions: 1) No, there is no way to make data show up in both fields because the script you are currently using is probably echoing the data directly into a value attribute of the elements themselves. Also, by making two different elements in the same form have the same name, and two different page elements have the same id, you are introducing a level of instability into the DOM that could result in no data being submitted at all if some browsers do not handle multiple occurrences of the same id in a page the same way (such as submitting the value from the first occurrence of the name rather than the last, resulting in the input in the hidden form being used). 2) Javascript would be your only hope of doing this, but as I said regarding the DOM, their is no way to independently access two page elements with the same id, so even Javascript cannot do this. I would recommend that, even though the application does not allow templating, you can still change its source code for displaying the form to allow you to template it that way. Hope this helps, -Connor Mckay Alnisa Allgood wrote: Hi- I'm in a situation where I'm required to deal with a hidden form. The background details are exhausting, but the gist is: one form is auto-generated and lacks proper formatting. It was part of an open source package that DID NOT allow templating. So to keep using the application engine, but provide formatting, I created a CSS class to hide the unformatted form while displaying the formatted form. When submitting data to the database this doesn't seem to cause any issues. It accepts data based on the fieldvalues and ids. But when retrieving data to repopulate the form, what happens is that the hidden form gets the values and the displayed form does not. http://nahic.ucsf.edu/phpESP/survey.php login= Wisconsin Basically, if you complete the required field (state), fill out some random data, hit save, then select resume from the info page provided. You'll get back an empty form. But if you look at the code you'll see that the hidden form has the values. So I have a few questions: 1) Is there anyway to echo data from one field to the next, especially if the field (name or id) are exactly the same?? (i.e. field=state value=Wisconsin; if the field state is then repeated somewhere else on the page, can the value, Wisconsin, also be automatically repeated. 2) If yes, to the above can PHP do this and how? or is this something requiring Javascript or some other coding. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Re: Store a variable name in a database field.
Most likely you are using some template system that require using of
{{whatever}} as template varibles.
if you want to change {{whatever}} to something else, maybe you should
configure your template processing as well, just let it not to find
{{whatever}} but the pattern you prefered, and also replace
{{whatever}} with that pattern.
another tip, if you want to use `$' as literal , i.e. not
interpretered by php engine, quote the string with single quote.
like this:
$str_val='$something';
, or like this:
$str_val=\$something;
in both case, you will get a literal sting `$something'.

[PHP] Is DOM the right thing for the job?
Hey, I've got a set of classes which represent an HTML form. Right now the Elements return their string representation to the parent, which wraps those in the form tag and supplementary formatting HTML. This method works, but it creates an internal limit as to the design of the form. I'm hoping to use the DOM to allow each element to return a DOMElement, which the form object can put into it's own DOMElement that represents the form. I've run into a few snags, and was hoping someone could help, or maybe point at a viable solution which I haven't considered yet. Snag #1) The DOMDocument seems to represent an entire page, all I'd like to do is represent a Form tag and it's internal HTML. I can actually get it to work that way, but it seems like it's the wrong way to go about things. Snag #2) The creation of a DOMElement object is very limited without being associated with a DOMDocument, I'd like to create an independent DOMElement inside the Element class, including possible sub-DOMElements, without having to create the DOMDocument in the Form object.. I realize after writing this that these don't seem like very serious snags, but I jsut dont' have a fuzzy feeling about the way this would work if I implemented it knowing what I've stated here. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Chris -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
