If you need precision with floats or doubles you can use BCMath
Arbitrary Precision Mathematics Functions.

I got as reply on another forum which resolved this issue. The command
should be:
$mysqli = new mysqli(".", $username,$password,
$database,null,"/tmp/mysql.sock");
NB. host is a dot

Hi Folks,
I have a database running on Window XP, that I want to disable network
connections to and enable 'named pipes'. I am running MySQL 5.0.27
and my.ini looks like...
[client]
#password = your_password
port = 3306
socket = /tmp/mysql.sock
[mysqld]
#port = 3306
socket = /tmp/mysql.sock
#Allow connections via named pipes (Windows NT+ only). Note: you can
specify a pipe name on the advanced network page, if required.
enable-named-pipe
#Don't allow connections via TCP/IP.
skip-networking
I can connect to the DB using the MySQL GUI tools if I set my pipe
name to '/tmp/mysql.sock' using the login dialog box.
However when I try and connect using PHP I get an error. I have tried
several variants of the connect command and I get various errors but
all are along the lines of:
Unknown MySQL server host '/tmp/mysql.sock' (11004) or
Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)
I have tried
$mysqli = new mysqli(null, $username,$password, $database);
$mysqli = new mysqli("localhost:/tmp/mysql.sock", $username,$password,
$database);
$mysqli = new mysqli("localhost", $username,$password,
$database,3306,"/tmp/mysql.sock");
$mysqli = new mysqli("localhost", $username,$password,
$database,"/tmp/mysql.sock");
$mysqli = new mysqli("/tmp/mysql.sock", $username,$password, $database);
I have also tried the above commands using mysqli_connect ? I have
done a few searches of the web but seem to always come up with
something like the above? Anybody have any ideas why it won't connect
in PHP ?
TIA,
JC

If you don't see any change in phpinfo then maybe it's not picking up the
dbg extension in your php.ini. Presumably you've also put the other debugger
directives in your ini?
You can also try download the trial version of PHPEd from Nusphere, install
that, and check how it configures the debugger. The trial lasts a month I
think, so maybe you'll sort out your problems in that time anyway. Just be
sure to completely uninstall it afterwards because I think the free dbg
version is not the same as the version integrated in PHPEd. Any version
differences cause the extension to not load, though in that case it should
report an error. You can't use the dbg integrated in PHPEd after uninstall
because it doesn't work without PHPEd.

Subject: [PHP] PHP debugger
I am trying to load a PHP debugger in our most recent build of PHP 5.2.1.
The debugger which I am trying to set up is the free, pre-compiled
Linux version of dbg ( DBG 2.15.5 dbg modules), from
http://dd.cron.ru/dbg/, and all of the instructions have been followed
as posted on the NuSphere site.
Yes, Apache has been stopped and restarted!!
There is no difference in the output from phpinfo(). The line
"with DBG v2.11.30, (C) 2000,2004 by Dmitri Dmitrienko, http://dd.cron.ru";
does not appear.
PHP is compiled without debugging, but I did consider that was for the
purpose of debugging PHP itself, not scripts.
Suggestions will be most welcome. Also, I'm not married to this, so if
anyone thinks there is a better debugger, please jump in.
Regards - Miles Thompson
PS Why are we doing this? Because we are getting tired of debugging
with Javascript alert() boxes. /mt
PPS And we are using those because of Joomla! Some things are buried
so deeply we cannot use print() or echo(). /mt

From my php.ini ....
; added debug extension "dbg.so-5.2.x" and
; see [debugger] section of this file - 20050515 - mthompson
;
extension=dbg.so ;dbg.so-5.2.x
and the [debugger] section ...
; Added [debugger] section 20050515 - mthompson
; Note: DBG versions 2.15 (free) does not support debugger.hosts_allow,
; debugger.hosts_deny or debugger.ports settings.
;
[debugger]
debugger.enabled=on
debugger.profiler_enabled=on
debugger.hosts_allow= <<inserted domain and IP number here>>
debugger.hosts_deny=ALL
debugger.ports=7869, 10000/16
; end [debugger] section
Couple of notes:
1. Tried this with extension pointing to both dbg.so and dbg.so-5.2.x.
(The latter is what the instructions specified, but that did not seem
correct.)
2. Also tried it, in combination with above, with debugger.hosts_allow,
debugger.hosts_deny and debugger.ports all commented out.
3. PHP version is 5.2.1, compiled from source on a Ubuntu Edgy Eft server.
I'm wondering it I should download the source and compile it. That
might be a better way home than assuming the binary is correct.
Arno, your suggestion to install the NuSphere editor is a good one.
I'm just reluctant to add more junk to my Windows box and to allow
something other than atp-get / dselect to mess with server
configuration. (Although it is a development box, so errors are not
terminal!)
Thanks to everyone for suggestions.

Hi folks, I hope everyone is having a good week. :)
Let me cut to the chase... Basically, I need to get this:
http://www.site.com/folder/foo
To work like this:
$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'folder/foo/file.ext';
For use with getimagesize() and a few other functions (trying to avoid
possible open_basedir restrictions.) Here is what I got so far:
# Determine http type:
$http_s = ($_SERVER['HTTPS'] == on) ? 'https://' : 'http://';
# Get root path:
$from_root = str_replace($http_s.$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'], '',
http://www.site.com/folder/foo);
echo
$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].$from_root;
/*
** Output:
** /web1/httpd/htdocs/blogs/images/uploads
*/
So, do you think I can rely upon the above script? I have a feeling the
answer will be no.... Or, anyone have any tips/improvements?
Thanks!
Cheers,
Micky

I'm trying to use preg_match to find a string in a system path.
What I need to do is see if the string '/realtors' exists in a variable
named '$path'.
I know '/' is used as a container within the command itself. How do I
escape it to find the string '/realtors'?
Thanks,
Ed

Hi Ed,
did you try the backslash as escape character?
<?
$path = "testing/realtors/userdata/";
if(preg_match("/\/realtors/", $path)) {
echo 'Success';
}
?>
Works for me :o)
Maybe try http://de3.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-match.php too see some
examples.
Good luck
Chris

That's what did it. I was thinking the \ was the escape for the
command but wanted to make sure.

The "container", as you called it, are delimiters. They can be about any character you choose; but, stay away from preg
control characters. Personally, I use "%" most of the time.
It's a good habit to use delimiter characters that you can be certain will not be included in your strings. Then, you
don't need to worry about escaping them in your string.

[re-sending, forgot to include list :-|]
If you're matching a string and not a pattern then it is far more efficient
to use strpos:
if (strpos($path, '/realtors') !== FALSE) {
echo 'Success';
}

Hello,
I'll appreciate your answer to the following questions:
1) What standard modules in PHP (5.x) enable to move large amount of
data over
a SOAP response (I know about DIME support)?
2) Is there a plan to support MTOM in PHP (if you're involved with
php/pear development)?
Thank you in advance,
Gal
