Well, I know I'm going against most of the rest of the responses you've
gotten, but if you think you're going to need to do databasey things
with the material, it makes sense to me to put it in a database.

Having said that, I do agree with a lot of what the other posters have
said regarding things like the impact on ease of maintenance, waste of
storage space, etc.

If it were me, I think I'd be looking for a way to only store the actual
text in the database, with some PHP scripting to apply whatever
formatting/template is needed to generate the page you want to present.

can you guys give me some good things to put into my .htaccess file for
my highest directory in a PHP/MySQL/Apache project?

The 'security' angle is the only one I consider terribly valid, an was
what I had in mind when I said I can't think of too many reasons why a
packaged' template' solution is in order.  Obviously it is for you.  

I still believe that in most cases it doesn't make much sense to use one,
for most people, because it's limiting you to a subset of a powerful
language, and the implementation can be slower.  Smarty is on the right
track by compiling the templates to PHP and cacheing them.  

What I'd *love* to see is a template system which is portable between
various platforms (JSP, CF, PHP, Perl, VBScript).  That would, imo, make
it worhtwhile for people to learn *one* templating system that would be
cross-platform.

Nope, it doesn't support nested loops (or dynamic blocks, as it's called
now). But PHPLib templates supports this. PHPlib covers a lot of other stuff
as well, but I haven't bothered to take a look at that yet, as Fasttemplate
is good enough for my use ;-)

http://phplib.netuse.de is their URL.

Fasttemplate supports loops and if's.

You set a dynamic block like so:

<!-- BEGIN DYNAMIC BLOCK : rowset -->
<TR>
 {ROWCONTENT}
</TR>
<!-- END DYNAMIC BLOCK : rowset -->

And then in the PHP code that parses this html template (.tpl, for example)
file, you do a $tpl->assign (.ROWCONTENT, "rowdata");

and loop over that. the .ROWCONTENT means that you're ADDING data to a
variable that already exists. Replace "rowdata" with the data for the row in
question.

Isn't this what you want??

Nope. I was looking for a template that supports loops and
IFs. Someone pointed me to php dreamtime:

  http://www.phptemplates.org/

which is a cool project, by the way.

Btw, I think I might need some extra "tags" to my template
"language" so I'm going to hack this on by myself at the
time being.

Thanks,
Steve

That is where a template system like HTML::Template excels, actually.
It is very simple to implement it in Perl, PHP, Tcl, etc etc.

I'm wondering if anyone has experience using CURL and could advise if it's
the best direction for creating a SSL to a payment processing service.

I'm trying to connect an existing PHP form to a payment processing service
called Authorize.net. Using there direct response method requires a Secure
Socket which a thought meant to send from a secure form to their secure
script which didn't work. Here's what I got from their tech support.

"The problem is that you can't send an HTML form POST when using Direct
Response.  You must write a script that creates an SSL connection directly
with our server (port 443) and send the information to us through that
connection. I do not know if this is possible through PHP but usually this
is done with PERL, CGI, or ColdFusion. Please refer to the Developer's guide
for more information:

https://secure.authorize.net/docs

Thank you for contacting our customer service group."

I found some info about CURL, http://curl.haxx.se/, and it seems like it
might do the trick. I was wondering if anyone has experience with this a can
confirm that this is the best approach or give me some other direction.

Thanks,
Tom

        I was doing this a while back with Authorize.net and using cURL with
PHP let me ditch the C CGI I had been using to accomplish this.  Not
quite as clear-cut a solution as something like the PayFlow extension,
but it's quite doable.  Main gotcha is having to compile cURL against
the same SSL libs as were linked into the webserver (Stronghold in this
case) if you're not using PHP as a CGI.

If you want to do it correctly it is much more difficult to calculate
the TZ than you think. The problem is that different time zones shift
to daylight savings at different times and some do not shift at all.
Therefore simply adding the offset will work for a while and then you
will get problems in places like Arizona and parts of Indiana and you
will shift to daylight savings time a full week after your European
users.

The way I did this was to parse the time zone data available at
ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/ and store it in a database. I then built
some functions that would calculate the correct offset depending on
the date (and time) passed in and another function that would apply
the offset.

They have some tools to do this in C and perl but I don't speak either
of them so I did it myself (unfortunately for you I didn't use PHP
either because the project I did this for is written in Progress 4GL.)

At an application level I determined that it is easier to convert
everything done on the server to GMT and store that and then to
convert from GMT to the user's local time zone for display. It becomes
much easier to calculate the offset because GMT never shifts to
daylight savings plus you only take a small performance hit every time
instead of the double conversion hit on display which may become
significant for something like a report.

It took about a weekend of work to set this up and then a couple of
hours here and there to tweak it so there is some significant work
involved but it is worth it. 

BTW: Based on the look and feel of worldtimeserver.com (and many
others like this) I would say that they are using the perl version of
this data.

Also: For some reason I am unable to bring up the FTP server I
referenced above. I was there the other day to get fresh data so I
know it is still valid. Try again later if you can't get to it.

The short answer is use a database.  The long answer is to write your
function to reverse the array.  You could have the original array passed
to the function and your function return a reversed one.  In your
function, you would have to do some checking.  If the index is a new
entry into your guestbook, then create a new index in the new array.  If
not, just prepend the text to the last index of the array.

I'm imaging that your text file is delimited by something.  You may want
to explode each line so you can tell if it belongs together or not.

I would like opinions on a security question.

A co-worker suggested we rename our application files to some extension
other than .php (for example, .htm). The reasoning being that the .php
extension tells a cracker that we are using PHP, and not ASP, or ColdFusion,
etc. The cracker can focus immediately on vulnerabilities of PHP.

So, is there something to be gained by masking our server setup by changing
our filename extension?

TIA

Kirk

Not really, I mean it may deter a very novice hacker.  But, if the people
want in, they can very easily find out what server and server software you
are running.  For example, goto www.netcraft.com and click on 'What's that
site running?' and put in your www.domain.com address.  It will tell ou
everything about the server, even uptime.  So, if they want to know, they
can find out, file extensions just make it a bit easier...

Sorry if this is wrong info Rasmus, but I was told this is a bug in
some version(s) of apache.  Someone I know ran into this probelem and
said he found it was a bug, so he upgraded apache, reinstalled php and
everything works fine.

What I always do would probably fill both needs. My filenames usually look
like this:

URL Files - can be accessed directly through the browser
----------------------------------------
filename.php -> Normal PHP files

Non-URL Files - are hidden from the browser either by means of .htaccess or
by being moved outside of the root web directory
----------------------------------------
filename.inc.php -> PHP Include files (these are all files containing
content to be included in Normal files)
filename.class.php -> PHP Class files (these are my class files)
filename.lib.php -> PHP Library files (these are function libraries)

This allows PHPDoc to pick up the correct files as well as prevents people
from viewing the source code of my files. The only files that print content
directly to STDOUT are filename.php and filename.inc.php. The other two file
extensions, filename.class.php and filename.lib.php, only contain functions,
classes, variable declarations, etc.

Below is the (very) simple form that I'm using to allow users

<br><br> 
<center><a href="" onclick="window.close(); return false;">Close

<br><br> 
</body> 
</html> 

-----------------------

The problem that I'm experiencing using the above form is that when
some users (and the problem is consistent for those users) submit the
above form, *none* of the POST variables are getting passed to the
receiving page.  None of the hidden variables, not the "input type = file"
variable, _nothing_.  However, the majority of my users have absolutely
no problem using this form.  Just those very few.

Now, when I change this line:

<FORM ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" ACTION="/upload.php" METHOD=POST
name="uploadForm"> 

to this:

<FORM ACTION="/upload.php" METHOD=POST name="uploadForm"> 

(ie, remove the ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data"),

all of the POST data gets sent to the receiving page for those users.

What is going on?  Why is the POST data not getting sent to the server
when the    ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data"    is included in the form
definition?  And why only for a very small subset of users?

Thanks for any insight you can give!

Another thing of note:

These same users that are having problems with my file upload form
are not having problems with Yahoo!'s email attachment form (a file
upload form as well).  So I copied all the same HTML code from that
form and put it on my site to test.  The only thing I changed was the
ACTION field and I modified their "Done" button to be a submit button.
When they submitted that form, the POST vars didn't come through
either.  The only thing I can think of is that there is an issue with our
Apache or, more likely, our PHP configuration.  However, I'm not 
sure of where to even start looking.

Again, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Chris

I don't know what all of them are using, but most are using
IE.  I don't know how feasable it would be to get them to all
change browsers, especially when they are not having this
problem on other sites (Yahoo, for example).  The problem is
originating from my server.  There is some combination of
the ENCTYPE of the form and some setting on our server
that is causing the POST vars not to get sent.

Hi all,

I got php_4.0.2 build went smooth on my Solaris8/SPARC. 
It required a few GNU utilities that i got ready made from sunfreeware.com. It is 
hosting most of the binaries of GNU utilities for Solaris. Thus time saving and 
cleaner install using solaris packages avilable there. If you want to be at bleeding 
edge of technology and don't like a few weeks old utility ( not always ) gnu.org is 
there! or if enjoy building;)

a) download from www.sunfreeware.com 
b) mv <pkgname> <pkgname>.gz ( sometimes the file is not saved with .gz as it is shown 
on the web page )
c) gunzip <pkgname>.gz will get you <pkgname> as a Solaris package here
d) pkgadd -d ./<pkgname> ( you need to be su to do this )
e) add /usr/local/bin to your path if it is not there

followings were required:
GNU m4
GNU autoconf
GNU automake
GNU bison ( replacement of yacc )
GNU flex  ( replcaement of lex )

In the rush I also installed( and not sure if they were required):
GNU libtool
GNU gawk

All the GNU software went to /usr/local/ so there were no conflicts with normal 
Solaris software.

I got gcc also but it was not must required as requiement was just for
an ANSI C compiler.
It compiled with 
/usr/dist/share/devpro,v4.0/5.x/SC4.0/bin/cc
though gcc is recommended.

I was earlier getting error for compiling source for m4 and autoconf that I earlier 
got from gnu.org even with gcc as compiler ( due to me being new to these things, 
Ofcourse!! )   but quiting it here only as am happy with ready made m4 and autoconf.

Thanks all for your support.

Cheers!

phpBarGraph is a bargraphing class for PHP. It allows one to have an
arbitrary number of bargraphs. phpBarGraph scales the bars to fit the area
you set. It is possible to cycle through colors for each bar. Each bar can
be its own color or they can all be the same color. Multiple bar graphs
can be placed on one image and the inter-bar spacing is configurable.

No, not really.  What is the value of $name when the form passes $emailtext?
That is the value that will be in $name.  If it is actually printing
$name and not an empty string, then the '$' must be getting escaped
somewhere along the line, or you are using ' instead of " around the
variable.

Hi,

is there a PHP class/library available anywhere, that supports
dynamic creation of different graphs? I need 2D bar graph and
pie graph support.

i found the VH Graph (http://www.vhconsultants.com/graph/graph.htm),
but they want $100 for their 2.x version. i'd prefer a free one
(i'm sure there must be a couple floating around) :)


Rgds,

Funny enough, I just got an email from the PHP Classes site
about a new class that does that.  Try this URL

http://phpclasses.upperdesign.com/browse.html/package/226

That might do what you need.

http://www.zend.com  --> Resources --> Code Gallery --> Look Around ;-)

There's tons of them in there.

I can't quite get the logic to create my own associative arrays:

if:

        $stuff[0]="165.33.114.63 anonymous Mozilla/4.0" 
        $stuff[1]="213.35.354.93 anonymous Mozilla/4.0"

how do I end up with:

        $stuff[0][user]="165.33.114.63"
        $stuff[0][browser]="Mozilla/4.0" 

        $stuff[1][user]="213.35.354.93"
        $stuff[1][browser]="Mozilla/4.0" 

I am hacking away at:

        foreach( $stuff as $cFile ) {
        
                list ($user, $junk, $browser) = split (' ', $cFile);
                }


and it hurts.....any hints ?

TIA,

I was actually interested in the answer to this. I believe one can write in
English if one can read English. (PS: It's not my first language either)

Fixat!
Problemet låg någon annanstans, vilket jag upptäckte när jag plötsligt fick 
ett annat fel i scriptet. Ändrade dessutom "Lägg till" till "Skapa" vilket 
ju inte innehåller våra tecken. Verkade ju funka ändå men för 
säkerhetesskull så.

AS it was my question I'll answer.
He said that he was sceptical about using our accented character in code 
and that that I could use a <input hidden ...> instead of whatever to track 
the variable.

Well, I fixed it eventually - the problem was somewhere else, which I 
noticed when I got a completely different error message later. 'Twas due to 
stupidity of the coder rather than the quoted code itself.

Hello all!

I try to build additional extension modules for PHP4 (4.0.5RC6) on
Debian Linux 2.2r3  for connecting to commercial databases like
Sybase, Oracle8, and IBM DB/2.

But all what I get is a big PHP4 module with all additional
interfaces linked in (I use APXS from Apache 1.3.19).

Can anybody tell me how to build a separate .so PHP module
especially for Sybase-CT (this I need most urgently).

If you can give me a pointer to an URL or a FAQ, this would
be also fine.

Thank you very much.

Hello,
I am trying to make a hit counter graph that will have
7 days to it. Monday thru Friday.
I'm having problems getting the last 7 days. 
For instance today is 05-01-2001 I would like to
determan the previous 7 days from that date.  In VB
Date - 7 = 04-24-2001  I would like this to work for
any date using php.
Here is what I have so far...
$t = (date ("m-d-Y"));
echo $t; // output 05-01-2001
echo "<br>";
$r = $t - 7;
echo $r; //output -2
but now $r returns -2
How do I get $r to yesterdays date in this format.
04-30-2001
Thank you
  --Mike

 see the php manual: (Function Reference / XV. Date and Time functions) 
a piece of description & examples about date() function:

$tomorrow  = mktime (0,0,0,date("m")  ,date("d")+1,date("Y"));
$lastmonth = mktime (0,0,0,date("m")-1,date("d"),  date("Y"));
$nextyear  = mktime (0,0,0,date("m"),  date("d"),  date("Y")+1);

date() with mktime() is more than perfect. After subtracting date parts with the help 
of date()  you pass them to mktime... 
and you can deal with its arguments as integers.(see ie: $tomorrow).

Hello PHP'ers

I am having a problem with string delimiters. For some reason no matter what I do I 
can not get them to process correctly!!
For example, 

<?
$area_entered = "yes";
$date_entered = "no";
echo "$area_entered\t\t\t$date_entered<br>";
?>

That outputs: 
yes no

What am I doing wrong?! Is there something I need to set in the php.ini file? I would 
like to be able to type \n instead of <br> repeatidly!

Also, when working with cookies, if I have a cookie that is set by, 

if (!isset($cookies)) {
//Set Cookies
$cookie_user = setcookie ("username", $row["user"], time()+86400, "/", "localhost");
$cookie_pass = setcookie ("password", $row["pass"], time()+86400, "/", "localhost");
$cookie_step = setcookie ("step", "1", time()+86400, "/", "localhost");
$cookies_set = setcookie ("cookies", "y", time()+86400, "/", "localhost");
}

Is there a way to unset the cookie? Perhaps by,
$cookie_set = setcookie ("cookies",""); 
?

Thanks for your time,

Nick

The \n and \t control the layout of the source code, but it is still the
HTML that determines what the browser renders. Do a View Source when you
display the page above, and you will see

yes                     no<br>

as the source which outputs 

yes no

Do you see this output in a browser window?
If you does, then never mind. 
Browsers are allowed to change the look of your  HTML source in a  way that replacing 
multiple whitespaces with a single space 
(i really don't know they are allowed to...)
So it's a HTML stuff. maybe you can nest your output into a <pre></pre>. This tag 
handles \n \t and other HTML tags also.

Hi Nick,

to delete a cookie, simply use set_cookie("cookie_name"); without appending
any values.

Possible solutions for the \t and \n :

For \n to <br>, use:
$string = nl2br($string);

Not sure whether or not there a similar function for \t, though you could
perhaps use some method to replace \t with &nbsp; * 4.  I'm not sure
something like:

$string = ereg_replace("\t", "&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;", $string);

would be too clever, just in case someone typed \t rather than ereg_replace
/ preg_replace recognising it as a Tab.

It's getting too late to do any serious thinking. :)

Hello PHP'ers

I am having a problem with string delimiters. For some reason no matter what
I do I can not get them to process correctly!!
For example,

<?
$area_entered = "yes";
$date_entered = "no";
echo "$area_entered\t\t\t$date_entered<br>";
?>

That outputs:
yes no

What am I doing wrong?! Is there something I need to set in the php.ini
file? I would like to be able to type \n instead of <br> repeatidly!

Also, when working with cookies, if I have a cookie that is set by,

if (!isset($cookies)) {
//Set Cookies
$cookie_user = setcookie ("username", $row["user"], time()+86400, "/",
"localhost");
$cookie_pass = setcookie ("password", $row["pass"], time()+86400, "/",
"localhost");
$cookie_step = setcookie ("step", "1", time()+86400, "/", "localhost");
$cookies_set = setcookie ("cookies", "y", time()+86400, "/", "localhost");
}

Is there a way to unset the cookie? Perhaps by,
$cookie_set = setcookie ("cookies","");
?

Thanks for your time,

Nick

H-

Some things to consider. 

You might want to do a search and replace for any spaces and special
characters and replace them with the underscore for all files. This way
you won't get the Netscape error messages and it also might be affecting
IE. 

For instance. 

Provoke - Quick Blast.mp3 would be converted to
Provoke___Quick_Blast.mp3 Or just remove white spaces. 

The reason I mention this is because in your last paragraph you mention
using the name in a web link. 
If it's not encoded correctly (meaning, has whitespace) netscape will
choke. Don't know why IE is freaking on the name. Is it being saved
correctly in the directory? What is the DB filename? 


As far as the file itself not playing. Sounds like you're not saving the
file out correctly. Might want to check for bin types or some such thing
for saving binary files. I know if you don't have the correct header and
save out code your images will be screwy. Perhaps it's related. Sorry I
can't be more helpful. 

Well that's all I can think of right now. 
Hope it helps some or gives a direction.

How do you open a text file and put all the contents into a variable like
$filecontent?

You use some combination of the commands presented at

        http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.filesystem.php

If you're just wanting something quick and simple, you might find the
file() function particularly useful.

Can anyone direct me as to what source is needed to compile ldap support
into php ? I get the error ldap.h not found when performing a configure
*options on php4.0.5. The server does not have an LDAP directory installed
which makes perfect sense. I need to find an opensource solution that works
well with php.

Thanks in advance for any assistance !!

I am running an apache server with virtual hosts and need to prevent the php
Copy command from being able to copy from one virtual host dir to another.

The server is in php safe mode and the doc_root, and basedir are set
correctly, at least they prevent "includes" and "opendir" and such from
working, but "copy" still works.

I sure would appreciate any suggestions.

Pan

Hi,

There is a section in the php.ini where you can specified the function you
don't whant to use  :

disable_functions : copy; ...

I never used it, but I think it's what you are looking for.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I need to be able to use the copy command, I
just do not want it to be able to read from one virtual host to another. I
would imagine that lots of web hosters running php with virtual hosts would
have the same problem.

I read about a PHP compiler for windows some time back - that qualifies PHP
as software, or actually code analogous to C/++ right?

Not validating which file you operate on may mean that users

What is meant by the above?  How would you "validate" that
you weren't operating on the wrong file?  As far as I know, 
PHP puts the file in whatever directory you specify and that
is where you would access the file... how could someone make
it so they access information elsewhere?

Chris

you could create a common include file for each directory, for e.g.

functions/auth.inc.php would contain:

    include ("auth/auth1.php");
    include ("auth/auth2.php");
    ...

later you could just include() the auth.inc.php file, and all the rest qould
get included as well

Hello people,

I came with this problem to the group a while back, got some suggestions,
and have been working on them since then. I know post the query again from a
new perspective

I have a mysql database, which contains a lot of email addresses and various
other fields. My PHP code generates a list of email addresses based on
certain criteria, and I have to send a fixed text body to each of these
email addresses. This is my mailing list server. The idea was to be able to
send out multiple mailing lists using the same database

The mail is sent using fsockopen and SMTP commands, I loop over each email
address:

The problem was the users were getting multiple copies of the email. After
much frustration, I found that what was happening was that the script would
start sending email (this process would take many minutes). However before
this script finished, another copy of the same script started, and this new
copy was sending emails to the same users again. The original script
continued. Result: duplicate emails

I tried setting the script timeout to a large value, but no effect.

I have managed to catch (and stop) the execution of the second copy, and
hence prevent duplicate mails, but I have no idea _why_ this copy was being
spawned... Can anybody help me out here? I would really appreaciate any
help!

Does anyone know of an equivilent for ASP's xmlHTTP.send command for
PHP?

i need to send a XML string out to an HTTP server without using user
interaction (from the inside of a script).

please respond via email at [EMAIL PROTECTED]

thanks

I was also going to post this question from below, if anyone has an answer
please reply to me as well.
Thanks

Hello all,

Quick question.  I'm wondering what the easiest way to upgrade PHP is?  For 
instance, right now I have PHP 3 installed on a RH6.1 box and would like to 
upgrade to the latest version.  Even though it was installed using RPMs can 
I use the tar.gz and build it to apply the upgrade?  And then for each 
release after that just build it manually (I assume it will overwrite 
whatever needs to be "upgraded")?

Red Hat is very slow about getting RPMs out and I wanted to stay on top of 
everything.

Thanks
Kevin

I dont think you can mix rpms and tgz's, for example if you use an
apache rpm you need some header files to get php going (if you want to
compile php as an apache module).

It might be better to remove the old rpm first and then install the
new php from tgz where the old rpm places it's files (don't know where
that is on redhat maybe /usr/local) so you dont break something, but
it might be better to change all rpms connected to php to tgzs.

Yes after that you will be able to overwrite exsisting php versions.

Hi -

I want to use javascript to validate some fields on a form.
The javascript code will take the value the user typed
into the form and search for it in an array.  If the value
is found in the array, then the value is ok, otherwise
an alert() message will be displayed.

The amount of data in the array is quite large.

The data in the array rarely changes.

I want to avoid transferring the array from the web server
to the client's web browser every time the user loads the
form.  I put the array in a file called "myarray.js":

$ cat myarray.js
var MyArray = new Array(
        "value 1",
        "value 2",
<many lines snipped>
        "value 789",
        "value 790"
);
$

Then, I put the following line in the php script that generates the form:

<script language="JavaScript" src="myarray.js"></script>

By examining Apache's access_log, I see that "myarray.js" is
transferred to the user's web browser once when the form is first
displayed, and for subsequent uses of the form, the web browser
uses the myarray.js that is cached, so that the array does not
have to be transferred from the web server to the client computer
every time the user uses the form.

So, if the data in the array contained in myarray.js _does_ need
to be changed, I need some way of signaling the user's web browser
that it needs to transfer the updated myarray.js file from the web
server.  How do I do this?

The only way I know to do this is to instruct the users to clear their
web browser cache, which will force the web browser to transfer
the updated myarray.js from the web server to the web browser.

Is there another way?  Is there some kind of "expire" mechanism
that will tell the web browser that it needs to get the updated
myarray.js file?

Thanks -
Jim Ide

This is usually handled by the browser automatically.  (Nobody likes to see
out of date content when browsing the web).  Users can set their browser
settings to check for new things once per session, every time, or never (or
some variation of these).  Most users use once per session.  Otherwise, a
complete reload can be forced on many browsers (NS and IE at least) by
holding shift and clicking reload.

Try using the $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA array.

Hi,

I tried the HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA array, but it doesn't appear to exist. Then I
just tried to access it like a variable and it's empty.

Have I not got something setup correctly for PHP?

Yah I got it.
I thought it was excellent.  Goes into quite a lot of detail and pretty
advanced php programs with good descriptions of how to implement it.

Don't look to this book if you want a howto on how to set up mysql etc..

I thought it was a great book otherwise.
Great for edpereince programmers

Hi,

Is it possible to add text onto the end of a variable name?
e.g. to add the word 'code' onto the variable $field so it would be $fieldcode

Thanks

Just do this:

$fieldcode = field;

Look variable variables up in the manual, I think that would solve
your problem.

example:

$var = "fieldcode";

$$var = "the value";

echo $fieldcode;

more information here:

I think you want to do it in an automatic way for each variable which satisfies a 
prescribed condition, so you may use a for / while statement

for ( ; ; ) {
    GLOBALS[$old_name . "_put_your_own_postfix_here"] = GLOBALS[$old_name];
}

or with variable variables:

for ( ; ; ) {
    $new_name = $old_name .  "_put_your_own_postfix_here";
    $$new_name = $$old_name;
}

but if you know the name of variables exactly, the simplest solution is already 
posted. $var_code = $var;

The other alternative is to change the user the ftp deamon runs as. My proftpd
runs as ftp.ftp but it could just as easily run as nobody.somebody or

Hello,

I've been scouring the archives, but none of the solutions presented are
helping me...

I've got php 4.0.5 and am trying to compile support for pdflib-4.0.0.

Here's how I compiled pdflib:

./configure
make
make install

Looks successful, right?
ldconfig -v | grep libpdf
        libpdf.so.1 => libpdf.so.1.1.0

ls -1 /usr/local/lib/libpdf*
/usr/local/lib/libpdf.a
/usr/local/lib/libpdf.la
/usr/local/lib/libpdf.so@
/usr/local/lib/libpdf.so.1@
/usr/local/lib/libpdf.so.1.1.0


And here's how I'm compiling PHP:

./configure  \
  --enable-versioning \
  --enable-track-vars \
  --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql \
  --with-imap=/var/src/imap-4.5 \
  --with-curl=/var/src/curl-7.5.1 \
  --enable-gd-imgstrttf \
  --with-gd=../gd-1.8.3 \
  --with-ttf \
  --with-tiff-dir=/usr \
  --with-jpeg-dir=/usr \
  --with-zlib-dir=/usr \
  --with-png-dir=/usr/local \
  --with-pdflib=/usr/local/lib

(I'm now building CGI mode for testing so I don't have to keep restarting my
production web server)

The only mention of pdflib from ./configure is this:
checking whether to include PDFlib support... yes

I've also tried:
--with-pdflib=/var/src/libpdf-4.0.0 (src directory)
--with-pdflib=/usr/local/lib/libpdf.so (directly to the lib itself)
And cp ../pdflib-4.0.0/bind/php/ext/pdf/* ext/pdf/
... Same results.

php -i does NOT mention anything about PDF, and the pdfclock example fails
with:

"Fatal error: Call to undefined function: pdf_new()"

NOTE: I've been doing (make clean ; rm config.cache config.status) between
each ./configure.  I've also started with clean source a few times.

I've been working on this for a few days now, and am out of ideas.  I'd
appreciate any and all suggestions!

Thanks,

Bill Shupp

if you have pdflib in /usr/local/lib

You have /usr/local/lib in ld.so.conf, right?
then you don't even have to specify directory.

 --with-pdflib

should work.
(I'm not sure if your pdflib version is supported by PHP, though)

Hello,

I am making a script that makes .htaccess files for websites.  When I use
ftp_nlist(); It doesn't show the files with a . in front of them.  Does
anyone know how to show hidden files when listing a directory?

Maybe use ftp_rawlist(); instead

Just curious if anyone knows how to properly destroy a session.
I tried doing this,

session_start();

session_unregister("logged_in");
session_unregister("username");
session_unregister("password");
session_unregister("accesslevel");
session_unregister("emailaddress");
session_unregister("last_login");

session_destroy();

However that doesn't work, the session isn't terminated and the session variables are 
still available. Help anyone? :-)

As I understand it, session_unregister() removes a variable from the list of
session variables. session_destroy removes the session's content from
wherever it is being stored (e.g., a file in /tmp). To delete the *values*
of the variables immediately, use session_unset().

hmm i guess session_destroy() should unregister all variables too, try
echo session_destroy() to see if it returns 1.

Is there a function that I can call that is similar to perl's DBI::quote
function that will take arbitrary text and quote it so that it is safe to
insert into a database?

I'm using PHP 4.0.4pl1 on Apache 1.3.14 with postgresql 7.0.2

Hi, after downloading and compiling php4.0.6dev (from
cvs) I've decided to try the new "much improved" zlib
output support (already enabled in 4.0.5).

The announcement from the changelog says check the
zlib.output_compression ini.

I've searched the php.net site as well as the mailing
lists but could not find a reference for it.

I've tried to put zlib.output_compression=on (or yes)
in my /usr/local/etc/php.ini and even tough I've
restarted the server, phpInfo() shows me no
difference.

The php was compiled with zlib support. How can I turn
it on ?

thanks.

If you want to check if it is working.

Display phpinfo() and check the size of the file.
I get 6 KB compressed, where I get 50KB uncompressed.

You have zlib support, right?

If you are using Apache, see the documentation for .htaccess files. These
files allow you to set individual php.ini settings on a per directory basis.

Greetings,

Just a general question, I am experimenting with Apache 2.0.16 beta.
Reading the manual that comes installed from the source, it seems that
third party modules like PHP will not work.  Is there a development
version of PHP designed to work with Apache 2.0?

Thanks in advance,
Will

I'm new at programing and not getting very far with this.  I've looked
at "array_revers" and "array_multisort" and can't get anything to work.
What I have is a mysql table laid out like:

item number |  title | body text | subject heading

What I want to do is pull the top 7 entries off and display them on a
web page.  I have written some code that will do this but when it prints
to the web page the first item is printed at the top and I would like it
on the bottom with later entries successively on top.  How can I do
this?  Hear is the code I have so far:

$result = mysql_query ("SELECT title, body FROM junkyard LIMIT 0, 7");
$i = '0';

while ($i < 7) {
    if ($row = mysql_fetch_array ($result)) {
    echo "$row[0] <br />$row[1]";
    ++$i;
    }
}

Thanks,
kent

i) maybe, you add an ORDER BY clause to your query. This cause that returning rows in 
the result set are ordered in that way you 've specified.
ORDER BY works as follows : ORDER BY <column name> ASC for ascending or DESC for 
descending sorting.
(you can give more than one column name.)
 $result = mysql_query ("SELECT title, body FROM junkyard ORDER BY title DESC LIMIT 0, 
7");

or you can gather all the rows you need in an array and print this array as you love.

for ($i = 0 ; $i < 7 && ($result_rows[] = mysql_fetch_array($result)); $i++) ;

You're looking in the wrong place.  What you want to do should be
handled at the database level.  I.e. your SQL query should be something
like:

        select title,body from junkyard order by item_number desc, limit
7

Since you refer to what you want as the 'top 7' entries, there is
presumably some sort of order that you are attempting to enforce in what
you display.  The way you currently have your query formed, the results
you get back are not guaranteed to have any order.  You must add the
order by clause.  

The next problem you're likely to have, is that you don't have any way
of enforcing order in your database other than the item number, which is
probably not what you want.  In this case, what is it that determines
whether something is in the 'top 7'?  Is it based on time?  Is it
alphabetical?  Whatever it is, you need to sort by the corresponding
field.

My guess is that you're going to want to add a timestamp column to your
database, and order by that, descending (i.e. highest to lowest).

Once you do this, you don't need to change your php code at all which
executes the query and displays the results.

Good luck.

It immediately started Eudora and tried to distribute itself to anything 
that looked like an email address. Fortunately Eudora is set so that emails 
don't go out without me looking at them first.

If it did escape, and got sent to any of you, my humble apologies. Look for 
emanuel.exe; if you have multiple copies it serializes itself, 
emanuel1.exe, emanuel2.exe, and so forth.

The NT system here was getting pretty creaky. So, with all my data backed 
up and network settings recorded, I'm about to format C:, reinstall NT and 
then start looking for all those little utiities I've gotten so used to. <g>.

Once again, if it got passed to any of you, through me, my apologies. I 
wouldn't trust my anti-virus software on this, I could find any reference 
to it at Symantec. Maybe it has another name?

...But my boss won't let me keep the Bushmill's at my desk.  *sigh*

So, assuming that $p_code is "MNE" and $neuroKey is 2, then $hub should be 
2, right?  Instead, it's coming up with 1, which is the value of 
$coreKey.  What have I missed?

                
$hub=$coreKey;
if (($p_code=="MNE")||($p_code=='SN')||($p_code=='PM'))
{
        $hub=$neuroKey;
}
else if ($p_code=="MAI")
{
        $hub=$allergyKey;
}
else if (($p_code=="SPS")||($p_code=="MCC"))
{
        $hub=$dermKey;
}

Have you tried printing the values of $p_code and $neuroKey at various
stages? Perhaps there's a space or some other slight inconsistency...if
you could paste in the snippet, maybe we could see what was going on
before this that might have it acting strange...

Do you have some echo statements on $p_code and $neuroKey right before the
if statement, to make sure your assumptions are true?

Problem solved.  Boy, that was easy.

The database was adding trailing spaces to the codes (so that "MNE" was 
actually "MNE  " and so on).  $p_code=trim($p_code) did the trick.

I could still use that Bushmill's, though.

$p_code = "MNE";

$hub=$coreKey;
if ($p_code=='MNE' || $p_code=='SN' || $p_code=='PM')
{
        $hub = "$neuroKey";

echo "$hub";

this is taken straight from phpinfo(), as you can see
its all there except for type. I was wondering why
wouldnt my RH7.0, Apache 1.3.12 w/ PHP4.0.4pl1
know what the file type was...

HTTP_POST_FILES["userfile1"] 

Array
(
    [name] => palazzina1.jpg
    [type] => 
    [tmp_name] => /tmp/phpewzSBs
    [size] => 10272
)

tnx,
t.

I need to make a select list for a web page in the following format:

01/01/01-01/07/01
01/08/01-01/14/01
01/15/01-01/21/01
etc
etc
till the end of 2002 and further in the future eventually

I'd like to make PHP generate this for me so I don't have to handcode it for
each year in the future.  I've looked at the date/time functions and I'm a
bit confused.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks!

Jon

Jon,

Just had to do almost exactly this - here's one solution. The tricky bit was
getting the number of days in the month - you have to look at next month!

This generates a list for 12 months starting with the current month and outputs
display stuff as well. In our scenario this is passed to a script which grabs
records from a database and produces a report for the month selected and the
previous month so the range of values is always for 2 months. Ours goes
backwards - you'll need to adjust it to run forwards.

  <select name="strReportMonth" size="1">
  <? // Get This Month
   $strThisMonth = date('m');
   $strThisYear = date('Y');
   // convert to integer
   $strThisMonth++;
   $strNextMonth = $strThisMonth;
   $strPrevYear = $strThisYear;
   for($i=0;$i<=12;$i++) {
    $strThisMonth--;
    if($strNextMonth == 0) {
     $strNextMonth = 12;
    }
    if($strNextMonth == 13) {
     $strNextMonth = 1;
    }
    // How many days in this month
    $lastday = mktime (0,0,0,$strNextMonth,0,$strThisYear);
    $last = strftime ("%d", $lastday);
    $strThisMonthTS = mktime (0,0,0,$strNextMonth,0,$strThisYear);
    $strThisMonthName = strftime ("%B", $strThisMonthTS);
    $strNextMonth--;
    if($strThisMonth == 0) {
     $strThisMonth = 12;
     $strThisYear--;
    }
    $strPrevMonth = $strThisMonth -1;
    if($strPrevMonth == 0) {
     $strPrevMonth = 12;
     $strPrevYear--;
    }
    $strPrevMonthTS = mktime (0,0,0,$strThisMonth,0,$strPrevYear);
    $strPrevMonthName = strftime ("%B", $strPrevMonthTS);
    if($strPrevMonth < 10) {
     $strPrevMonth = "0".$strPrevMonth;
    }
    if($strThisMonth < 10) {
     $strThisMonth = "0".$strThisMonth;
    }
    ?>
    <option value="<? print
$strPrevMonth."/01/".$strPrevYear."|".$strThisMonth."/".$last."/".$strThisYear."|".$strThisMonthName."|".$strThisYear."|".$strPrevMonth."|".$strThisMonth."|".$strPrevMonthName."|".$strPrevYear;
?>"><? print $strThisMonthName." ".$strThisYear; ?>
    <?
   }
  ?>
  </select>

My host is Windows 98, Xitami and unstable MySQL and Perl/CGI.

I'm looking for a *free* host, with CGI, Perl 5+, MySQL access, SSI &
PHP.

Thanks,
Owen

Good luck, let me know how your search goes. I would also like to find
someone who would do that.

I would like to edit a list from a PHP form.
Can someone point me to a good tutorial??

I have walked-through a tutorial that showed me how to successfully pull the
contents of  text file and display the whole contents. I want to view the
contents and then edit a specific line of in a list.

So, if I have list of employees and their telephone numbers, I'd like to be
able to search the contents and display the employees phone number then
allow me to edit the phone number and save it back to the list.

I know I can do this with MySQL but I need to keep the source data in a text
file.

Thanks for any suggestions.

There is these two SAP vendors talking to each other. The first one says:
"I finnally convinced company xyz to buy our products". The second one says:
"It took them a long time to see the light!!". The first one replies:
"Ya, now here comes the darkness..."
