Hi Jonel,
Hi guys, I just like to ask those using Macs here as to what editor
and/or
IDE they are using for writing PHP codes.
I'm using Zend Studio (ZDE) - it works as well as any I've tried. It's
significantly faster than Eclipse too (on a G4 PowerBook 1.33Ghz/512MB
RAM).

Hi guys, I just like to ask those using Macs here as to what editor
and/or
IDE they are using for writing PHP codes.
BBEdit is generally consider to be one of the best (note: I said "one
of the best", not "best", so let's not start about how emacs, vi, and
vim are better) text editors available on any platform. It's very easy
to use yet powerful (supports grep, works with Xcode, has command line
tools, etc). The new version 8 ties into Apache, letting you test PHP
scripts in the application. It's a text editor, not an IDE, though.
There are PHP- and SQL-specific libraries built in so that it
recognizes function names and such.

I use the Eclipse IDE (www.eclipse.org) with phpEclipse
(www.phpeclipse.org) or Xored Trustudio (www.xored.com) on Windows (hey,
I'm poor), but the Eclipse IDE is cross-platform (so are the plugins as
far is I know.)

Hmm, maybe (have you tried out Eclipse 3.0?), but I still find the
interface of Eclipse superior to Zend Studio's (that's just plain ugly
and confusing) - plus, it's free! And open-source! Yay!

BBEdit, of course. I use it for just about all my coding, not just php.
Not free, but a free fully functional demo is available. I forget if
the demo is a certain number of launches or a time limit.
I have looked into Zend Studio and Eclipse, but they are a bit slow on
a laptop.

I don't personally use Mac OS X, but let me throw in a recommendation for jEdit
(www.jedit.org). It's Java based, hence cross-platform, and extremely powerful. I
use it on Windows and couldn't live without it. I have installed it on my friend's
iMac long enough to see that it works, but not long enough to know of any
platform-specific issues and/or gotchas.

No PEAR allowed?
Why not? You can include the libraries in your own paths...

Hello.
I'd like to announce the release of version 1.1 of ASPA.
ASPA is an ASP to PHP translator. It uses syntax and schematic analysis
in order to produce PHP code of equivalent functionality with the original
ASP code. It supports both JS and VB script.

Hello, I wonder if someone has ran into a problem similar to or related to
this before.
I have a rather large form that, among other things, allows the user to
upload 2 images, one small, the other slighly larger. They upload just
fine, they show up in the $_FILES array, and I do error checking on them
which seems to pass.
Then I move them with the following code:
$thumbPath = $GLOBALS["dvdimgpath"].$_POST["gameId"]."_thumb.jpg";
$fullPath = $GLOBALS["dvdimgpath"].$_POST["gameId"]."_full.jpg";
if ($DEBUG) echo "Thumb image uploaded to ".$thumbPath."<br />\n";
if (!move_uploaded_file($_FILES["thumbImage"]["tmp_name"], $thumbPath)) {
echo "Image file could not moved to the images dir. Please try
again";
}
if ($DEBUG) echo "Full image uploaded to ".$fullPath."<br />\n";
if (!move_uploaded_file($_FILES["fullImage"]["tmp_name"], $fullPath)) {
echo "Image file could not moved to the images dir. Please try
again";
}
The images are not there when I go to look for them in the destination
directory. Any suggestions or ideas? Thanks.

I need to find the exact time of day using "minutes since midnight".
What is the easiest and/or better way to do this in php?
This is how I'm doing it now.
// $iMinutes is the total number of minutes since midnight/12am
// 0 = midnight/12am
// 1439 = 11:59pm
$iMinutes = 1230;
if ($iMinutes < 0 || $iMinutes > 1439) {
$restime = "??:??";
} else {
$iHour = $iMinutes / 60;
$iMins = ($iMinutes - (60*$iHour)) % 60;
if ($iHour <= 12) {
$restime .= $iHour . ":";
} else {
$restime .= $iHour-12 . ":";
}
if ($iMins < 10) {
$restime .= "0" . $iMins;
} else {
$restime .= $iMins;
}
if ($iHour < 12) {
$restime .= " a.m.";
} else if ($iHour==12 && $iMins==0) {
$restime .= " noon";
} else {
$restime .= " pm";
}
}
Thanks, Brent

The OP wants to get the time based on a value indicating the number of
minutes since midnight. He doesn't want the current time. The following
should give him what he needs:
----
$iMinutes = 800;
$midnight = mktime( 0, 0, 0, date( 'm' ), date( 'd' ), date( 'Y' ) );
echo date( 'g:ia', $midnight + ($iMinutes * 60 ) );
----

Rob.

This file upload problem has me very confused.
The code is:
$upload_dir = '/articles_store/';
$uploadfile = $upload_dir . basename($_FILES['userfile']['name']);
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'],$uploadfile)) {
} else { die ("Cannot upload file");
}
(this code is practically verbatim the example from php.net)
The directory '/articles_store' has permissions 777. And the user is
and group are 'www' (the Apache user).
But I keep getting the following error:
[Wed Oct 20 19:01:34 2004] [error] PHP Warning:
move_uploaded_file(/articles_store/case_for_base.pdf) [<a
href='function.move-uploaded-file'>function.move-uploaded-file</a>]:

Any help is very, very much appreciated.

Are you sure that this is the correct path? Did you create a new path in
your root level as /articles_store ?
so, if I go on your machine and type in:
$ cd /
$ ls
it'll show
/articles_store
/dev
/etc
/var
...etc?

Basically, my first guess is that you are not understanding the
directory structures properly. You need to give it the full path if
you're going to have a / at the beginning of your directory path.
/foo != yousite.com/foo in the system level.
hth,
Robby

Subject: [PHP] url
I have this old script I wrote 2-3 years back. I gets arguments from
the url. index.php?area=blah
Dear, you forgot to update yourself about a major change in PHP's
default behavior in these years, Now register global are by default
disabled.
NEXT thing to watch
-------------------
$_HTTP_*_VARS is also deprecated in php5. By default they are enable
as of now but who can say about the future.
The client moved the code to another server and some odd happened.
Nothing seems to be parsing from the URL anymore.
The top code is
<? if (!isset($area)) { ?>
HTML
THis code no longer seems to work and I am racking my brain trying to
figure out what.
--------------------------------------------------------
"Theres no such thing as a problem unless the servers are on fire!"
I think this should be changed to....
"There no such thing as a problem unless the servers are on change" ;)

Graham,
I've read this over and over and I must be dense
because I"m not totally comprehending it.
Let me show you how I set it all up. Remember it's a
multi page form:
So the form elements are: skills[], skys[], slus[]
Then on the next page I have to still pass the session
variables, and so:
$_SESSION['skills'] = $_POST['skill'];
$_SESSION['skys'] = $_POST['sky'];
$_SESSION['slus'] = $_POST['slu'];
Now the transcation script:
$skills = $_SESSION['skills'];
$skys = $_SESSION['skys'];
$slus = $_SESSION['slus'];
foreach($_SESSION['skills'] as $key => $skill)
{
$query = "INSERT INTO LurkProfiles_Skicerts
(SkicertID, ProfileID, SkilCerts, NumYear, Lused)
VALUES (null, $LID, '$skill',
{$_SESSION['skys'][$key]},{$_SESSION['slus'][$key]})";
//$result = mysql_query($query);
$res6 = run_query($query);
echo $query;
}
I understand that in the insert statement I need not
repeat $_SESSION.
The rest though is fuzzy.
It was working, now I'm getting some really odd
behaviour, in that, unless i fill in every field in
the form, I get a mysql syntax error.
