Absolutely nobody in this day and age advocated "goto <lineNumber>". The
only use to have useful advantage is "goto <labelName>" and of course
that is where the <labelName> exists within the current execution scope.
A function call is not an acceptable replacement since you incure the
overhead of setting up the function and the stack. Contrast the
difference in speed between "is_null( $foo )" and "$foo === null".

PHP has never purported to be an OOP only language. It advocates both
procedural and OOP programming methodologies. Just ask Richard Lynch :)

The speed difference is negligible though, in this day and age,
dependent upon how much hair-splitting you would care to do. You're
still setting aside a block of code which will have to be parsed and you
incur the same setup if the goto section is the same code as the
function. The overhead is introduced in the calling of the function. But
we're splitting hairs here :)

A more realistic speed hit is the fact that using if/elseif/else or
switch statements requires on average an O( n ) lookup, whereas a proper
goto implemention is O( 1 ). Now I'll give you you could do an label to
function map and use that instead, but that's still O( lg n ).

Rob.

No, that won't work. system() will execute a command on the server, not
the client.
There is no 'true' way to launch all applications on the client in php.
You could however make the client launch things like Word and Excel by
sending the proper headers. But this may not work on all, ex if you
send a header to simulate a Word document, and the client has OO set as
the handler for *.doc, it's going to open OO and not MS Word.

Sort of. There are two ways to do this(that I can think of, and
neither of them are too reliable. Consider this: how would you like if
any random website, could run any program they liked on your computer?
This could range from word/excel, to less amicable programs like ones
that control your speakers/microphone, etc.
Having that said, you can use nsiProcess(in netscape/gecko based
browsers.), or wsh for MSIE. I'm not sure exactly how to do this. I
just remember reading some code that needed this. On
netscape/mozilla/gecko you'll have to tell the script to override the
security preventing this(the user will be shown a dialog box, asking
them to confirm this). I'm not sure what the situation is with MSIE,
but expect to encounter some security issues.
I don't know any examples for nsIProcess off-hand, but you can check
out the PHUI Code for an example on doing this on MSIE.

Absolutely correct. Mea culpa.
I use PHP on my machine all the time for running scripts, and so the
line between server and workstation is often blurred. Even then, I
probably wouldn't want system() launching a desktop application, even if
I called sudo first to switch to the appropriate user.
Thanks for catching this!

Use the unit testing framework with which you are most comfortable; the

Unfortunately, no. Most of this is personal experience, a little of it
was garnered from php|Tropics, and that portion wasn't an official part
of Jason Sweat's presentation.

I have not used curl before and it looked interesting from the manual.
So, does anyone have a sample script or a tutorial that covers the logon
procedure.
What I want to do is logon to an asp site and download some files. Can
someone point me in the right direction? I have done some searches on
google but I guess that I have not used the correct key words because I have
not found any hints at how to logon to a site with curl.

Hi all -
I've got a great html invoice that prints like crap because of my user of
background images and foreground images. Does anyone have any good
suggestions other than turn on images in IE to get this thing to print the
graphics? Is there a good way I could convert the HTML view to a JPG? I'm on
a linux box and have php 4.3.10.
Thanks for the help!

Yeah I was considering that...I'm trying the html2pdf site right now. It
seems alright...its choking on my invoice as we speak (lots of html).
Is there a way to make a JPG? I've looked at a few sites from google..most
are activeX...somewhat undersirable. Looking for something I can run on the
server to do the convert work.
Thanks,

You can use str_replace to "highlight" the search terms.
For example, you could use the following code for each search term (this
function also accepts arrays, see http://php.net/str_replace):
str_replace ($search_term, "<b>$search_term</b>", $body_text);

Bad idea. Very bad idea.
for example ( using bold to highlight ):
<?pseudo_code
$html = "<html><body>I want to hightlight the word body in this text.
</body></html>";
$search = "body";
$output = str_replace($search, "<b>$search</b>", $html);
// $output == "<html><<b>body</b>>I want to hightlight the word
<b>body</b> in this text. </<b>body</b>></html>";
// see what I mean?

To be honest I am not sure where the code is failing - it is starting
Outlook.exe on the server so I assume it is able to instantiate the COM
application (I think that is what it is called!).
If I stop the page load and do a 'view source' all I see is
<html></html> and nothing else. The Outlook.exe process also remains
running on the server and has to be killed with Task Manager.
However, when run from the command line the script WORKS!!! What can
that mean?

Sorry, wasn't able to test this when I got home. But to clearify, when
you use COM, it's loading Outlook (as you've seen) and then talking
directly to it. So you don't need an exchange server to make it work.
Try tracing through the code and see where it's failing. And nothing's
showing up when you do "View source" (I know you said it's continuously
running but curious what happens if you stop the page load and see
what's been output)? Have you tried running the script via command
line?
I'd be curious to see how far the script gets for you before it bombs
out. It might be trying to tell Outlook to do something and just
hanging (hence the perpetual loading in your browser) which is why I'm
wondering how far it gets and what happens if you run it via
command-line.
More info would definitely be appreciated.
