Hi NG!
I wanna output several kinds of ascii files. Two things are bothering me
right now:
1. I don`t get the PHP starttag (<?php) in my output, but the ending tags.
Is there anything I can to to get all of it?
2. How can I stop the browser to render HTML output, in order to get plain
ascii?
Cheers!

Your array that you get from the file() will contain the <?php tag, but you
will not see it in your browser as it is parsed as html.
header("Content-type: text/plain");
ontop of your script will output plain text. Hope it helps.

Oh, and by the way, remember that the array that file() returns also will
contain the newline. Add the flag FILE_IGNORE_NEW_LINES if you don't want
them.

Yes, that is a little better. Thanks for that!
But now all the PHP is removed. Is there some other header to send, in order
to get PHP in my output?

Weird thing: I acually get my PHP echoed, but I get two HTML doctypes (the
same one...).

Could you send the code you are having? If you are doing it properly all
should be shown, it will not remove anything. The file() don't parse the
content.

It's funny, every once in a while a PHP article comes up on Slashdot and
a lot of Rails fanboys slam it because of it's function names and sloppy
code. Those who are objective and have a clue about PHP's history know
that a lot of the strangely named functions are due to keeping the same
function name as the C/C++ function the PHP function is wrapping.
Additionally, as many here know, crappy PHP is usually due to crappy
programmers :)
Cheers,
Rob.

That's actually a very good article and while I don't agree with some
of it (most notably #6, the I love SQL.. I find a good ORM layer to be
a life saver should you ever need to make database structure changes
without having all your apps collapse all over themselves), I
certainly agree with the main idea: that rails is an excellent
teacher.
My current job is writing PHP code but I once completed a project with
rails and strongly believe that I'm a better PHP programmer because of
it. Rails is basically a very nice implementation of a whole bunch of
enterprise patterns DONE RIGHT! I tend to associate the term
"enterprise" with slow, bloated, overly complicated and barely
functional but in this case, the enterprise patterns implemented are
all worth knowing.
We have our own simple framework that's quite fast and does nothing
more than it needs to. It allows us to write new functionality very
quickly and easily. The place I work has more programmers experienced
with php and therefore it just made sense for me to learn PHP instead
of them all learn Ruby. I still routinely recommend they try rails at
least one, on their own, just for the hell of it because they'll be so
much better afterwards. It's easy to do things the wrong way in PHP
but it's pretty hard with rails. It pretty much forces you to do
things properly and while that can be maddening at first it's worth
the effort.

Hi,
In a current project we have developed a piece of software that run
independently and that only requires php5 as a CLI component.
Now we want to use this software on other machines, and the only requirement
it that the machine has php5 installed. Fine for now, but then we have
started to get request from clients to use this on their machines, as they
need our software there. Then we informed them that we need to compile php
on their machine. But due to the sensitive machines that they have, they
rejected that idea. So now we need to find a way to have PHP5 on the
machine, without compiling it on their machine and changing their
environment.
Must be pretty sensitive machines. What sort of system is it? redhat
based? debian? something else?
You could create a package of some sort, build that on your machine and
send that to them.
Providing:
- you're running the same versions (of the main packages - gcc, libc)
- you're on the same type of hardware (i386 compared to amd64 etc).
Even easier - if you're using php that doesn't require any extra
components (ie you don't need something like pcntl which isn't in the
base php5-cli packages), just get them to install the appropriate package.
If they're running gentoo or *bsd which are pretty much compile-only
systems, then you're out of luck.

VMWare is your friend. Create a guest of their OS of choice and build
there.

Indeed, but only if you're making a lot of repetitive queries to the
database.
Which is typically what a busy website does :-)
The query cache only works if you give it exactly the same query.
That is:
select blah from table where id=1;
if it changes to
select blah from table where id=2;
then it's not fetched from the cache and thus hits the real data (this
then gets cached in case it's called again next time).
or even
select blah, blah2 from table where id=1;
will not hit the first cache because the fields are different.
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/query-cache-how.html
However, since the OP wants to reduce the number of
connections to the database, query caching may reduce the time each
connection is held for it will not reduce the overall number of
connections.
The number of connections is presumably only important if we speak about
the number of concurrent connections. If each query can be dealt with
faster due to caching, the number of concurrent connections should
drop.
Err no - it still has to connect to the database (thus use a connection
slot) to even get to the cache.

Team,
I am trying to start this up.
Just not sure if I am doing this correctly or not.
Can you please advise?
I am sure you all have seen my post from before.
Have, I created the players table right?
Players
------------------------
Id_Number ( int )
First_Name ( varchar32 )
Last_Name ( varchar32 )
NFL_Team ( varchar32 )
Fantasy_team ( varchar32 )
Position ( varchar32 )
College ( varchar32 )
Height (tinyint)3
Weigh (tinyint) 3
Years of experience ( tinyint )3
Salary cap (int )6
I have the ID number marked as the primary key.
Is that right?
Another thought.
I am not sure on what to do with the players stats.
Should that be in the same table as his profile info?
Like Passing Yards, touchdowns, etc.
Your advice, is greatly appreciated and respected!!!
