Just a note: if you do use the mysqli interface, it isn't
compatible to php4, just in case that may be an issue.

The problem exists in your configure line.
'./configure'
'--enable-versioning' # most likely dont need this
'--enable-memory-limit'
'--with-layout=GNU' # most likley dont need this
'--with-zlib-dir=/usr'
'--with-imap=/usr/local'
'--disable-all' # disables the default install php will use
'--with-regex=php'
'--disable-cli'
'--enable-ctype' # enabled by default
'--with-gd'
'--enable-gd-native-ttf'
'--with-freetype-dir=/usr/local'
'--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local'
'--with-png-dir=/usr/local'
'--with-mysql=/usr/local'
'--enable-overload' # shouldn't be used
'--with-pcre-regex=yes' # enabled by default
'--enable-posix' # enabled by default
'--enable-session' # enabled by default
'--enable-tokenizer'
'--with-expat-dir=/usr/local' #shouldn't be used
'--enable-xml' # enabled by default
'--with-zlib=yes'
'--with-apxs2=/usr/local/www/bin/apxs'
'--prefix=/usr/local' # default installation path
The key entry is your --disable-all entry, Bypassing the default
installation that php uses. Thus, it will disable your
libxml2 installation which is what php uses for xml. The
--with-expat path is not needed because that is the old xml parser,
php 5 uses libxml2 for the XML functions.
the --enable-overload really isn't necessary unless you have old
php4 scripts that rely on this extension.
The --with-layout, just decides where to put the extension's
libdir = $prefix/php
GNU: $libdir/(no-)debug-(non-)zts/
PHP: $libdir/extenstions/(no-)debug-(non-)zts/
I'd only mabey recommend using GNU for linux like OS installations.
If this is being installed from a port from freebsd, i would
strongly suggest in contacting the maintainer and letting them know
that it is broken, although, iirc, this is a known issue.

The $file expression is ignoring -'s, use:
if(preg_match("/^[a-zA-Z0-9-]+$/",$file)

To PHP list:
The following code is attempting to compare the salary to the four other
pre-defined variables with if and else statements. So the final output
should result in 4 different statements. What is the best way to do this?
Following is the code...
<?php
$currentmax = 1049;
$maximum1 = 1420;
$maximum2 = 1692;
$maximum3 = 1901;
if ($salary < $currentmax) {
echo "Currently, you pay approximately $ ", round ($salary * .0055 * 52 /
12, 2), " per month in dues.<br>";}
else
{
echo "You currently pay the maximum monthly dues of $25";
}
if ($salary < maximum1); {
echo "After phase 1 of the proposed increase, your monthly dues amount will
be $ ", round ($salary *.0065 * 52 / 12,2);
}
else
{
echo ("You pay the maximum monthly dues of $40";)
}
if ($salary < $maximum2); {
echo ("<br>After phase 2 of the proposed increase, your monthly dues amount
will be $ ",round ($salary *.0075 * 52 / 12,2);
else
echo ("You pay the maximum monthly dues of $55");
}
if ($salary < $maximum3); {
echo ("<br>After phase 3 of the proposed increase, your monthly dues amount
will be $ ", round ($salary *.0085 * 52 / 12,2);
else
echo ("You pay the maximum monthly dues of $70");
}
?>
I am still a newbie so any help with this code will be great...
Thanks,
Wil

Take out the semi-colon in the above line and others like it.

You did not say what your output should look like, but as a start you
can fix your code of parse errors and see if the output is what you need.

Is there any way I can use public/private key encryption in php in a
similar way to mcrypt.
I have got php encrypting the data using gnugp but need to automate the
decrytping element which is proving difficult because of the way the
password is passed.

While Daniel has brang up the subject of encryption, and I know that the
other day we were talking about storing CC numbers in a database - i
don't think we touched on storing CCs encrypted with a gpg-stype
encryption. Is this generally acceptable at all, or do you developers
still not store CC numbers in any way, shape or form in a database?
THanks

Don't know exactly what mcrypt does, but you can find an example of
public key crypto with PHP at http://www.venaas.no/php/

Hello,
I am building a login system for my website but I keep experiencing an
error on a specific PHP page that I have never encountered before and it
seems worryingly low-level! It says:
"The remote procedure call failed."
And that's it! Nothing else is on the page. Sometimes I get a slightly
different (but equally scary) error:
"PHP has encountered a Stack overflow"
I've googled these errors and some people have posted them but I found
no solution. I've searched the PHP bug database but found nothing. Has
anyone else encountered this and is there a solution?
FYI:
Other (more simple) PHP scripts work fine (so my PHP installation seems
to be ok) and this error only started happening last week.
I haven't changed this PHP/MySQL installation in months.
I'm testing my script on a (Windows) server in my office on which this
error occurs. When I upload it to a second remote (Linux) test server
it works fine!
Office Server: Windows 2000 Server + IIS 5.1, PHP Version 4.3.9 (Zend
Engine v1.3.0), MySQL 3.23.49. *CGI Version - I am considering changing
to ISAPI. Would this help do you think?
Remote Server: Linux + Apache, PHP Version 4.1.2 (Zend Engine v1.1.1),
MySQL 3.23.39.
Any ideas gratefully received! Thanks,
Alex

Ashley -
Try using:

Hi and thanks again Richard and Marek,
Finally I found the solution that I craved for which is large objects at
postgresql, I can upload and d/l files with memory consuming of just alittle
bit more of the file size itself.
Actually I have to admit that I saw that option before but I thought that
its quite useless for my needs because they wrote there that after version
7.1 of postgresql the large objects interface is partially obsolete and
they also wrote that one of the remaining beneifits of using it is that it
can hold up to 2GB!! instead of the new TOAST of 1GB!! so I thought that I
dont need it at all if anyway I can get to 1GB.... but apprantly they didnt
wrote anywhere about the memory consumption diffrence... or maybe I dont
control the english language as I wish to :)
The large objects manual -
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.4/interactive/largeobjects.html (for ver
7.4)
Thanks alot again,
Ben-Nes Yonatan
