Well, PDO is an approach. There are abstractions available like dddbl, which
I believe are quite useful.
Check www.dddbl.de
Don't know about other pear classes, though

I have many scripts that I need execute with PHP CLI. They are located in a
few directories. I don't want to write full path to script every time when I
start it. Therefore I've added this paths to the PATH environment variable.
But PHP don't find my scripts. How could i set paths on which PHP would find
my script when i call e.g. "php -f my_script.php"?

When you set the paths, did you restart the computer? Windows needs a
full restart if you edit your paths; Linux machines won't, but you've
not mentioned what your OS is.

Hi to all
I get a problem processing an image with GD libraries.
This is my function
public function showPicture($id) {
header('Content-type: image/jpeg');
$mime = mime_content_type($this->updir.$id.'.png');
$type = explode('/',$mime);
$type = 'imagecreatefrom'.$type[1];
$immagine = $tipo($this->updir.$id.'.png');
imagejpeg($immagine,null,100);
imagedestroy($immagine);
}
If i commentize the "header" function i get a lot of strange simbols
(such as the code of a jpeg image!) but no errors.
The result of this code is a blank page. In Firefox the title sets to
"picture.php (JPEG image)" and if i right-click it and click on
"Proprieties" i get "0px × 0px (resized as 315px × 19px)".
P.S.: I get the same result when I write $immagine =
imagecreatefromjpeg(...)
(Sorry for my english)
Thanks in advance,
Alfio.

Bottom post ;)
$type = explode('/',$mime);
$type = 'imagecreatefrom'.$type[1];
$immagine = $tipo($this->updir.$id.'.png');
imagejpeg($immagine,null,100);
imagedestroy($immagine);
I'm not sure you understood what I meant. line 2 above $type is assigned
to the string 'imagecreatefrom'.$type[1];
Now I assume that was to be used later in some sort of eval() statement,
but its never called again, so the line really does nothing.

Mmmm, No
$type = explode('/',$mime); # type is array
$type = 'imagecreatefrom'.$type[1]; # type is a string
He is actually re-assigning the var ussing the content of the var.
Sounds crazy, but I use this method a lot, it helps to keep the scope clean.

It's not crazy, I do it a lot, but he *does nothing with it* after that,
and the scope of the variable is limited to the function.

Why are you ussing GD?
All you need is output the image to the browser?
try this... I didn't test/run this code, but it may work...
public function showPicture( $id ) {
header('Content-type:' . mime_content_type( $this->updir . $id .
'.png' ) );
readfile( $this->updir . $id . '.png' );
}
hey, look, just 2 lines!

What has this to do with the Webbrowser?
In the PHP manual it is written:
----[ url 'http://de.php.net/manual/en/function.setcookie.php' ]--------
<snip>
domain
The domain that the cookie is available. To make the cookie available on
all subdomains of example.com then you'd set it to '.example.com'. The .
is not required but makes it compatible with more browsers. Setting it
to www.example.com will make the cookie only available in the www
subdomain. Refer to tail matching in the » spec for details.
<snip>
------------------------------------------------------------------------
This mean, if I wan to have the COOKIE available in the subdomains
foo.myspace.tdwave.net
bar.myspace.tdwave.net
baz.myspace.tdwave.net
I have to use the domain ".myspace.tdwave.net" with a preceding DOT. But
this is not what I want because I want to have the COOKIE only available
in
myspace.tdwave.net
so, I have set the the domain explicit to "myspace.tdwave.net" which
should register the cookie as it is according to the PHP manual or not?
Thanks, Greetings and nice Day/Evening

Ok... according to the above posts, I've started to create my generic CRUD
class however, I'm wondering:
Any of you have already used a DAO design pattern in conjunction with a CRUD
generic class?
Know that I'm trying to create a generic CRUD class on a DAO Design pattern, it
seems that it makes no sense at all.
Is there an advantage on doing this?
My thought:
On a "insert to database" scenario for example:
Without the CRUD generic class: to do an insert, we instantiate a DAO class and
then call the insert method. Nothing more. Done.
With the CRUD generic class: maybe we will have less code on the DAO site but,
at the end, to insert a record, we still need to instantiate a DAO and call a
insert method SO...
I see not big advantage on using both...
Can I have your advice on this please?
Thanks,
Márcio

I am trying to make a page that displays a-z like a b c d e etc as links
then when you click open one it reloads itself and shows only the query
results that go with that letter...i'm not getting it....I get a page that
says ARRAY over and over...
What I have so far:
<?php
if(!isset($_SESSION['RestaurantList']))
{
// List not grabbed yet, so run
query and store in $_SESSION
$sql = "SELECT
DISTINCT name FROM restaurants GROUP BY name DESC";
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error()) ;
$count = mysql_num_rows($result);
echo $count;
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
$name=array($row['name'],0,1);
//$name = array('name');
echo "<a
href=\"page.php?name=" .$name. "\"> $name</a>\n";
}
}
$alphabet = range('A', 'Z');
foreach ($alphabet as $letter) {
echo '<a href="' . $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']
. '?letter=' . $letter . '">' . $letter . '</a>';

Well, are you opposed to using Javascript?
//javascript function
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function searchLetter(letter) {
document.my_form.letter.value=letter;
document.my_form.submit();
}
//-->
</script>
//You could make a hidden form field to store the value of the letter
selected.
<form name="my_form" method="POST" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
?>">
<input type="hidden" name="letter" value="<?php echo $_POST['letter']; ?>">
</form>
//Perform your query and search only for the letter if it isn't blank.
<?php
$selected_letter = $_POST['letter'];
if ($select_letter != "") {
$sql = "SELECT DISTINCT name FROM restaurants WHERE name LIKE
'$letter%' GROUP BY name DESC";
}
?>
//Print out all your letters
<?php
$alphabet = range('A', 'Z');
foreach ($alphabet as $letter) {
?>
//Have the links call a javascript function that updates the letter selected
and resubmits the form to perform your new query
<a href="javascript:searchLetter('<?php echo $letter; ?>')">$letter</a>
<?php
}
?>
Something like that. I haven't tested any of that code just typed it up real
quick to give you an idea of one way to possibly do it.
Hope that helps.

Why are you setting the value of $name to an array? If you try to echo
$name after this statement (as you are below), PHP will echo the word
"Array".

If the list of restaurants is very long, I wouldn't store it in a
session variable. It is the same for every person who visits your
site, so there is little use storing separate redundant copies in
session scope where it will needlessly fill up disk space and/or
memory.
As far as the query is concerned, you could do this:
<?php
$index_letter = $_GET['letter'];
if (preg_match('/^[A-Za-z]$/', $index_letter)) {
$sql = "SELECT DISTINCT name FROM restaurants WHERE name LIKE
'$index_letter%' GROUP BY name DESC";
//....
?>
I would also consider whether you really need the keyword DISTINCT in
the query. In a properly normalized table, name should probably
already be distinct (and constrained by a UNIQUE index on that
column).

Hello Guys,
I have a question related to pattern matching and wildcards. This is the
scenario.
I have friendly urls on my website. So retrive their path as arguments for
every page.
so for example if I have www.xx.com/contact/me my args array will be
args(
0 => contact,
1 => me
)
My requirement is to change the page title on the fly with specific
patterns, so what I do is define a look up table with these columns.
path, pageTitle
contact/me - Contact US
perfect match would be easy because I can exactly look for what I want.
It becomes tricky when I introduce wild cards like contact/* for example. It
could also be contact/me/*
How would I match patterns for this kind of relative matches.? Any ideas
anyone?
Thanks,
V

ALl right,
I just install MySQL 5.1.36 on a Mac OS X Server but the PHP
is looking at the Mysql 5.0.67 ?
How do I tell the php.ini to look at the 5.1 instead of the 5.0?

There are a number of easy to use sanitizing scripts available for
processing forms for email and database use - find and use one! Forms
are notoriously easy to compromise for sending spam and corrupting web
sites.
A program I have used in the past is FormMail by
http://www.tectite.com. There are many other FormMail programs
available by the same name - this one is well documented and easy to set
up. It doesn't provide as much database security as you may want, but
it does a good job of hiding email and preventing cross-site scripting
attacks.

Most of my scripts are written for use on shared hosts. I've generally put my
function and config files in a web-space directory. However, I been thinking it
would be less bother to make stuff more secure if the functions, et al, were
above the root directory.
I realize, some hosts still don't let the owner use the space above the
document_root. So, I'll provide a means so the directory can be installed under
it.
What's your opinion and practice?

1) I want to delete browser history whenever i migrate from one page to

Why?
I could see a purpose for this if there is a form post
and you don't want the user to resubmit... but, are you wanting this
