Re: [PHP] Time keeping in DB
Shawn McKenzie nos...@mckenzies.net wrote: So, obviously not PHP related, but I'm looking for thoughts on the best way to record time sheets in a DB.

You can store all that stuff into a session, but you risk putting a greater load on the users session then you would be putting on the database server.

Change your script so that it has the following:
1. array with the page names/urls in it
2. foreach loop right after the array to parse it
3. in the current place of the file name, but the variable
4. Make sure to close the foreach loop

Hi this is what I'm working with as of now but still getting the blank page
of death...clues please:
!-- SNIP CODE --
To find your reasons for blank pages:
1) check the php_error log if you have set it up
2) run the file via the command-line (php $filename) and see what happens, what
errors you are getting back...
3) add the following to the top of your script after the ?php
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
then when you run it, it should barf out the errors, if not, you need to look
at either your php error log, or the web server error logs
You seemed to have accurately opened and closed your brackets.

Actually, single quoted will be string literal. He would need to encase them
in double quotes so the parser knows it might be looking for a variable.
require($incl) is what he wants.
See! I told you I always have problems with those! :)
Normally I'm not so literal though.
so yeah:
require($incl);
include($incl);
I prefer the includes over the requires, but that is personal preference.

RE: [PHP] $_POST suddenly empty; $_GET and _$REQUEST fine
-Original Message- From: Alex Kirk I've got an Apache 2.2.3 server running PHP 5.2.6 on top of FreeBSD 6.2. It's worked quite well for over a year now. However, as of some time last night, phpBB broke; upon investigation, I realized that the problem was that $_POST was never getting populated, even on properly formed HTML forms. Testing this to try to find the issue, I used the following script: ?php print Testvar: . $_POST['testvar'] . br/\n; ? form method=POST action=http://www.newmars.com/test.php name=formname enctype=multipart/form-data input type=text name=testvarbr/ input type=submit value=Submitbr/ /form It works like a charm on a different machine with an essentially identical config (it's a newer version of FreeBSD, but that's about it); however, it never displays the contents of $_POST['testvar'] on the machine that suddenly quit functioning right last night. Meanwhile, the rest of PHP seems to be working fine, as the phpBB forum is accessible in a read-only fashion. I've searched all over, and done things like restarting Apache; checking phpinfo() for the POST data (it's not there on the broken server, but it is on the functional one); writting a quick Perl script that took POST input to verify that my browser was sending such data properly (it is); and scouring the Apache/PHP error logs. The worst part is, I didn't touch the config at all between when it worked and when it didn't. So now I'm at a total loss as to what could be causing this, or how I should go about troubleshooting... == Did you check the apache logs or the php error logs? How about disk space on the server location where it is storing it's temp files for the server? I've seen something similar when disk space was nil after some scripts ran amok.

Dabbling? I think that making a living from it isn't dabbling, so I may not be qualified to speak for the dabblers. But for me, I was writing code before there were such courses. Later, when I went to college I was taught adventures in keypunching and received several next to worthless degrees. I say next to worthless only because what they taught really wasn't applicable to real world programming. As for management, clients, and hr types, the degrees mattered, but not for much more than that. In any event, I doubt if any college courses are keeping up with current web technology -- there has always been a lag between what's practiced and what's taught. What I've seen of college web sites, seems to support that claim. If I was taught in college all I needed to know, then what am I doing with these dozens of web books scattered about my office? I probably read a new book every other week. I don't dabble in it either, unless you consider making my living from being a dabbler, in which case I'll continue to dabble and see the pay for it. My alma-mater tried to stay current to some degree, but when they let someone who wrote the C++ book try to teach it, well they gave that person more rope then they needed.

You use a database, form on each page adds to a temp table on the database, when they have verified them all (if that is something they can do) OR have finished whatever form/survey you have them doing, then you write the temp table info to the one you want to keep. You could do some of that with ajax as well, but if you want to break up a 200 item list, you are looking at a database to store the info in the most efficient manner possible. You could also do it with sessions, but if they get stuck and need to come back, then if they had to login their session might be different and they'd have to start over again.

Your query looks fine. You need to look at the error codes you receive.
change:
mysql_query($query);
TO:
mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());
The resulting error message should help you find your MySQL issue.

Re: [PHP] removing text from a string
1. Some Text here
2. Another Line of Text
3. Yet another line of text
340. All the way to number 340
And I want to remove the Number, period, and blank space at the
begining
of each line. How can I accomplish this?
Opening the file to modify it is easy, I'm just lost at how to
remove
the text.:
?php
$filename = results.txt;
$fp = fopen($filename, r) or die (Couldn't open $filename);
if ($fp)
{
while (!feof($fp))
{
$thedata = fgets($fp);
//Do something to remove the 1.
//print the modified line and \n
}
fclose($fp);
}
?
I'd go with a regular expression any day for something like this.
*groan*
?php
$filename = results.txt;
$fp = fopen($filename, r) or die (Couldn't open $filename);
if ($fp)
{
while (!feof($fp))
{
$thedata = fgets($fp);
//Do something to remove the 1.
$findme= ;
$pos=strpos($thedata,$findme);
$thedata_fixed=trim(substr($thedata,$findme));
//print the modified line and \n
echo $thedata_fixed.\n;
}
fclose($fp);
}
?
See, no regex needed and no matter the size of the '##. ' it will always
find the first and then chop it from there to the end, then you trim it up
and you get the text.

Philip Thompson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all. Let me start out by saying, I have STFW and read through the list archives. Now that that's out of the way. To speed up our application, we want to implement using SESSIONs in some locations. Beforehand, on every page, we would run approximately 30-40 queries just to get the page setup - user information and other stuff. Now while we can't take away all of the setup queries, we would like to reduce the startup number. Ok, so I've implemented this in several places where information basically does not change from page to page. Jumping to the point/ question... when does it become more inefficient to store lots of information in SESSION variables than to run several more queries? Note, we are actually storing sessions in the database - so a read/ write is required on each page load - it's not file sessions. Now I know this can depend on the complexity of the queries and how much data is actually stored inside the sessions... but initial thoughts? To give you a number, the strlen of the _SESSION array is 325463 - which is equivalent to the number of bytes (I think). Thanks, ~Philip We carry a sh!tload of information in our session, without slowing anything down. In fact, it takes the servers longer to run a full query then to use the session information. But we use the $_SESSION information. Our first query sets everything up in the session and we take on from there, and use stuff from the $_SESSION to actually make the rest of the pages faster. 30-40 queries just to set up a page?

When updating the product you can either set the price point for the rest, or set the percentages and the forms do the work. You use the sessions and check to see if active.

I have a set of employees in our quote management system. We get thousands of quotes per hour, and every 15 minutes I have a cron that goes out and grabs the unassigned and goes in a round robin fashion assigning the quotes to the employees. I have the table setup like: User ID, Username, AssignTolken What I've been doing is grabbing the user who has AssignTolken = 1, and giving them the next quote. Then I change them to 0, pull up the next user in line, and set them up to get the next quote with AssignTolken = 1. My question is: How do you all do handle similar situations like this? I've been thinking there has to be a better way to do it, but I have not been able to think of a good way to do it. I'd like to see how if I'm doing it like everyone else, or what else is out there. Any ideas would be appreciated! The only thing I don't see is a current total count setup, meaning if John has the AssignTolken=1 then he'll get the next unassigned one. HOWEVER if John has 3000 quotes and Jim only has 1500, then you really want to assign Jim the next quote as it would be done sooner. You might also want to track who is in the office or on vacation as well so that you assign only to Active people.

Nope, I have set mine to 755, and it does not seem to be giving me any errors. This is the safer way to do it, right? Alice Alice, At this point, you need to re-install the OS or prepare to get your machine completely hacked and trashed. With your permissions that badly screwed up, it is only a matter of time before someone finds it and has their own ghost server. First, go pick up a System Admin book for Redhat Second, READ IT, Especially the parts on permissions and changing users Third, Re-install the OS Fourth, read the CLI vs. HTTP differences on programming languages you are using. Obviously Perl and PHP are going to give you the same errors when using the HTTP and will operate differently from the CLI unless running as the same user. This might even help your schooling.

$tab = $_POST['rdoTab'];
$record = $_POST['txtRecord'];
$updateQuery = UPDATE `current` SET Tab='$tab' WHERE
Record='$record';
mysqli_real_query($link, $updateQuery);

You're saying now that that record now has field Tab=''?

Re: [PHP] Simple array problem
Brian Dunning wrote:
I'm trying to add a number to a value in an array. Pretend I have this:
$new_value = array('orange', 2);
$arr = array(
array('blue', 4),
array('orange', 5),
array('green', 6));
I want to add the new value to the existing matching array element, so I
end up with this:
$arr = array(
array('blue', 4),
array('orange', 7),
array('green', 6));
Seems like it should be really simple but all the ways I can figure out
to do it are too kludgey.
What have you tried so far?

Re: [PHP] V4 Vs V5 Issue

This is probably not a php problem, I think it may a configuration issue, but sorry I just dont know where to look Configuration issue of what? I have a V4 site the calls an on line editor and part of the process is by window.onload. If I had to explain how it all works I could'nt JS is not my thing and this is a fairly old piece of code. anyways !-- SNIP -- Line: 68 Char: 21 Error: Syntax error Code: 0 It's probably all JS, but if this is a PHP page that you've actually cut/pasted from, look at lines 67 and 68 and check to make sure you have a ; at the end of line 67. Or a ) or a } or some other closing brace that you could be using previously. Otherwise, check with a javascript list to see what the javascript errors are.

Re: [PHP] String to date
Mark Bomgardner [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I need to convert a date retrieved from user input to a mysql date. Here the problem, I need to convert one of three possible combinations, either 01/01/2008,01-01-2008 or 01.01.2008. I can't use explode because it's limited to one character to explode on. I would prefer not to use regexp, but think I am going to have to. The one part of the code that works below is using 01/01/2008 format. Any suggestions echo $olddate = '06/06/2008'; echo br /; echo $olddate2 = '06-16-2008'; echo br /; echo $olddate3 = '06.26.2008'; echo br /; echo $newdate = date(Y-m-d,strtotime($olddate)); echo br /; echo $newdate2 = date(Y-m-d,strtotime($olddate2)); echo br /; echo $newdate3 = date(Y-m-d,strtotime($olddate3)); markb You've given us no code you are actually using (we can all write dummy test code). IMO, you need to either change your input form to give you the results in a certain way (split up the M,D,Y or only accept it in a specific format or any other way) OR You run the strpos and look for / . or - or or ? and then use the data on that field.

Re: [PHP] fwrite() Append Files
Wei, Alice J. wrote: Hi, I wonder if anyone on the list could tell me how to append the files as I am writing in them. I have a file that has no more than five characters per line, and I would like to keep its spacing between the lines. Right now I have the set up so that it could write in the first line, but the problem is that all the lines after it never get written in to the desired file. Is there some sort of command that I could use to append files as I am writing them? I would provide the code if this is not clear enough. Thanks in advance. Alice Alice, ALWAYS POST CODE. It gives us an example that you have done your assignment to begin with and aren't continuing to ask this list to do your work for you. RTFM as the fwrite module is pretty clear on its usage. But start with posting your current code (and not pseudo code) so that we can point you in a better direction.

Re: [PHP] fwrite() Append Files
Wei, Alice J. wrote: Hi, Right now I enforced the file to read in through HTTP-Request and output it to a local file. Looks like this functioned perfectly after I used append functions after I attempted to write to the file! Thanks to everyone who contributed to this.
