the example you provided isn't xml. (it has some resemblance, but it isn't
xml.) here's a code snippet that will turn that format into an array:
$fp = fopen($url,"r");
if (!$fp) die("could not open URL");

$line = fgets($fp,512);

If the value you want to send back to php is an integer you could just
say
exit $number;
from perl and that will be put into your $var.
Otherwise use exec() instead of system.
exec("/path/to/perlscript.pl", $scriptOutputArray, $scriptExitValue);
Anything that gets printed from the perl script should show up in the
$scriptOuputArray.

--- Begin Message ---Hi there! I am wondering if there is any way to stop PHP from sending any headers at all. I know about php -q, but unfortunately I want it to work with the module version of PHP as well. What I do is collect all output with the ob_ functions, and send it to a pipe. And there the output is encoded, headers are sent and the content is sent to stdout. However, after this is done, more headers are being sent by PHP. I want to keep it as much as possible outside the PHP code (I have my reasons :) I guess I could grab the output from the pipe, but if there's a way to make php not send any headers at all that'd be much nicer. Right now I "fixed" it by printing <!-- in the external prog, and after that --> in the php code, so at least the headers don't show up in the browser.. Nice is something else tho. Any ideas? Thanks! /Nico--- End Message ---

Hi -
Here's my dilema.
include() will include a *file* and if there are PHP tags in it will run
that PHP code, otherwise pass it along as is.
eval() will parse a *string* of PHP code, but assumes it's valid PHP code.
I want to something like this:
- read a file that contains a mixture of text and PHP code into $string.
- evaluate $string in the same way include() does it.
The reasoning for this is that include() works great if what you're
including is in the filesystem, but what if it's in the database? There
doesn't seem to be a way to do it then.
What I really want is a include_string() function.
Anyone know if something like this exists? I looked, but couldn't find
it. I also looked through the source code and while I found the parts
that deal with includes/evals I don't know enough to know how to add it.
Any and all help appreciated.
thanks!

Well, it sort of helps me (dang my quick sends :)
He has a workaround... for anyone else that needs it.
function my_eval($my_eval_str) {
$eval_str = "?>";
$eval_str .= $my_eval_str;
$eval_str .= "<?";
return eval($eval_str);
}

I'm having issues registering and then updating a value for specific items
in an array. I've read through the manual and MARC but I can't seem to find
the right answer. Here's what I'm trying to do...
Basic Backgroung: This is a "view cart" page. Depending on products that
they have selected I pull information from a MySQL database to give details
about their product. To do so I have set up a loop (duh) and on each pass
of the loop I add information to the session array. Here's the code...it
will make more sense...
First...I clean the arrays so that I don't have conflicting data...this is
done first thing on the page after session_start();
session_start();
session_register('subtotal');
session_unregister('kitem');
session_unregister('kquan');
session_unregister('kscale');
session_unregister('kdetail');
session_unregister('kdriver');
session_unregister('ksponsor');
session_unregister('kcompany');
session_unregister('kprice');
Then comes the loop which adds data to the now empty arrays...
for ($index = 0; $index < $indexLimit; $index++)
//connect and query MySQL database
include ("connect.php");
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM ar
LEFT JOIN company on ar.company_id=company.company_id
LEFT JOIN scale on ar.scale_id=scale.scale_id
WHERE ar.item_number = '".$i[$index]."'\n");
//sort through results
if ($myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
do
{
if ($quan != 0 && $quan != "" && $quan != "0")
{
//the following vars will be used on the order form as hidden
fields.
$kitem[$index] = $myrow[item_number];
$kquan[$index] = $quan;
$kscale[$index] = $myrow[size];
$kdetail[$index] = $myrow[details];
$kdriver[$index] = $myrow[driver_name];
$ksponsor[$index] = $myrow[sponsor];
$kcompany[$index] = $myrow[value];
$kprice [$index] = $myrow[price];
}
}
while($myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result));
}
And then finally I reset my session variables (arrays) like this...
session_register('kitem');
session_register('kquan');
session_register('kscale');
session_register('kdetail');
session_register('kdriver');
session_register('ksponsor');
session_register('kcompany');
session_register('kprice');
I get mixed and varied results...usually the items show up twice or don't
show up at all. Please help if you can see anything that is being done
wrong. Thanks...

Hi
Here is a script that will send any file for download, even .html files. I
called it send.php
<?
$headertxt = "Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"".$filename."\"";
header("Content-Type: application/force-download");header($headertxt);
$fd = fopen("$filename","r");
fpassthru($fd);
?>
usage is send.php?filename=file_to_send
Looks weird but it works

Hi All,
Below is a bit of a post that I found in the archives...
Is the Spruce tree implimentation available somewhere?
Cheers,
Brad
From: Spruce Weber ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
Date: 09/21/00
I've created from scratch a tree class that utilizes templates. What makes
this class worth using is the fact that it uses templates and the ease with
which it is extended. Heirarchical data is often stored in a database table
as follows:
record_id, parent_record_id, field_1, field_two, field_three...
The only data my class requires for each record/branch is its ID and its
parent's ID (or 0 if it's a top-level record/branch). The vars element can
contain one or more var=>val pairs that can be used when parsing each branch
of the tree. Data returned by a query of a table in the above format can be
easily prepared for use by my tree class as follows...
While($db->next_record()) {
$data[$db->f("record_id")] =
array("parent" => $db->f("parent_record_id"),
"vars" => array("field_1"=>$db->f("field_1"),
"field_2"=>$db->f("field_2"),
"field_3"=>$db->f("field_3")
));
}
The following code will then parse and display the tree, complete with links
that will expand and collapse branches that have children.
if(!$sess->is_registered("tree")) {
$tree = new Spruce_Tree("/some/directory");
$sess->register("tree");
}
if($sprout) $tree->sprout($sprout); // expand a branch
if($prune) $tree->prune($prune); // collapse a branch
$tree->set_tree_target("a_target"); // only necessary when using frames
$tree->pparse($data); // parse tree and print results
The branches can contain as much or as little data as you like depending on
the fields you place in the template and the data you insert into each
"vars" element.
The only data that is stored in the session is the name of the template file
being used (spruce_tree.tpl by default), the directory in which the template
is located, and an array containing the IDs of branches that are currently
expanded.
Yes, my name is Spruce, and this is my Tree class! If there's any interest
I'll be happy to share the implementation.

Hi Tom,
At first it didn't work. I had to create a blank png image in Photoshop and
uploaded it. I then changed file permissions and then the image creation
worked. Is there a way to write to test.png when it doesn't already exist
and file permissions are set?
Thanks for your help.

Hi
You have to make sure that the user that your web server is running as has
permission to write where you want to create the file.

I am a PERL scripter and I am just getting into PHP. My first few pages are
simple but I am running into a few problems when changing OS. I included
below a piece of code that works fine in windows but not on a linux box. Not
sure what the differences would be....
The problem is that on the windows platform all information is returned. On
the linux platform the "$Details" variable is not populated. The nothing
changes...so what could it be. The only thing I can think of is that maybe
the version of php is different on the linux server.
Here is the code.....after reading in a file with "|" deliminations
while ($i < $length):
$tok = strtok($cartFile[$i],"|");
$Category = $tok; $tok = strtok("|");
$SKU = $tok; $tok = strtok("|");
$Name = $tok; $tok = strtok("|");
$SubCategory = $tok; $tok = strtok("|");
$Price = $tok; $tok = strtok("|");
$Image1 = $tok; $tok = strtok("|");
$Image2 = $tok; $tok = strtok("|");
$OnSale = $tok; $tok = strtok("|");
$SalePrice = $tok; $tok = strtok("|");
$Details = $tok; $tok = strtok("|");
if($MCat == "$Category") {
$Count++;

It could be a different version - what are the versions on the two systems?
In the meantime, could you not use explode() or split() instead?
list($category,$sku,$name,$sub,$price,$etc) = split("|",$cartFile[$i]);
(might need to be "\|" instead of "|" - I can't remember, it's late,
and I don't have easy access to test it. :0

I've just written a couple of simple routines which read an write small text
files to the server:
function readData( $filename, &$data )
{
if (!$fd = @fopen($filename, "r"))
{
return false;
}
flock($fd, LOCK_SH);
$data = fread($fd, filesize($filename));
fclose($fd);
return true;
}
function writeData( $filename, $data )
{
if (!$fd = @fopen($filename, "w"))
{
return false;
}
flock($fd, LOCK_EX);
fwrite($fd, $data);
fclose($fd);
return true;
}
Now, the question is... How much time elapses between the fopen() statement
and the flock() statements?
Looking at the code, it would appear that two separate threads may call
writeData() almost simultaneously giving the following execution:
assume $filename = "sample.txt";
Thread #1 - $fd = fopen($filename, "w"); // succeeds
Thread #2 - $fd = fopen($filename, "w"); // succeeds (I think)
Thread #1 - flock($fd, LOCK_EX); // Does this succeed or fail?
Thread #2 - flock($fd, LOCK_EX); // fails (I think)

Per http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ini-set.php, PHP_INCLUDE_PATH is an 'ini' setting which you can change - you could either set it in your php.ini once, and point it to one common 'includes' direcotry. Or possibly set it per apache virtual server (via .htaccess perhaps in a main root directory). Another thought is to simply make all your include statements use a constant, such as DOCUMENT_ROOT or something else (we use something else but the idea is the same). Yes, all includes need to be written as include(MYDIRPATH."/relative/stuff.php"); Also, try ini_set(PHP_INCLUDE_PATH,DOCUMENT_ROOT); at the top of your page(s). That might do the trick. but it makes everything a heck of a lot more portable. Don't go back to ASP. If you really want to use <!--#include virtual--> stuff Apache supports that via .shtml files. There are probably ways of getting the two to work together (PHP and SSI) though I'm not sure why you'd want to do so. :) Remember ASP is a framework, and VBScript is the popular language there. VBScript doesn't support includes at all - it's ASP calling an SSI interpreter, include()ing things, then passing to the language. PHP is just a language. There are some pretty ugly, inelegant things going on under the hood with respect to includes under ASP - if you want gorey details let me know. :) After writing all this I see it's basically a rehash of the 9/2/2001 posting in the user comments under include at the php manual site.

I am not sure I can articulate this well.
But I will try.
I want to combine either two variables or a variable and string to bring up
the name of a previous variable name to display the data from the first.
So in the first part I will have a listing that will look like
<type=radio name=state_1 value=No>
<type=radio name=state_1 value=Yes>
<type=radio name=state_1 value=Maybe>
<type=radio name=state_2 value=No>
<type=radio name=state_2 value=Yes>
<type=radio name=state_2 value=Maybe>
// Submit etc....
Then later I will call a for loop to try and do something like
for ($i=1; $i < 12; $i++) {
echo state_$i; // This would print out either Yes No or Maybe.
}
Is there a way I can do this.
I thought I heard something about how I can but I do not remember.

What you actually want is:
for ($i=1; $i < 12; $i++)
{
$mystate = "state_".$i;
echo $$mystate; // This would print out either Yes No or Maybe.
}
$$X tells PPH to use the value contained in the variable named $X.

Hey all,
I'm trying not to cache a page. I have the following code:
$return = split(" ", exec("vmstat"));
$cpu_top = 100;
$return = $cpu_top - $return[count($return) -1];
which returns the amount of idle cpu time. The problem is this, every
time the page is loaded, it always show the first value when the page
was first loaded. I tried adding :
header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate");
header("Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0", false);
header("Pragma: no-cache");
all randomly, and together, but nothing seems to work. I can run one of
my binaries in a forever loop causing the cpu not ever to be idle, but
still nothing. Help?
Thanks in advance,
Paul

Hah,
I found the problem. It's because vmstat when called always,
initially has the cpu idle at 99. This explains it. So, how would I go
abouts returning used cpu time on a system?
Thanks,

OK, the only reason you would have #!/usr/bin/php is if you're going to run
it as a shell script under unix.
You approach should _still_ be 2 scripts (3 if you count the include file).
<file_content file="for_shell.php">
#!/usr/bin/php
<?php include('main_code.php'); ?>
</file_content>
<file_content file="for_cgi.php">
<?php include('main_code.php'); ?>
</file_content>
If the script really must be one and the same (name and path), then maybe
<file_content file="called_script.php">
#!/usr/bin/php
<html><head><title>redirect</title>
<?php
if(!isset(HTTP_REFERRER)):
echo '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL=cgi_code.php">';
else:
include('cgi_code.php');
endif;
?>
</head><body></body></html>
</file_content>
Maybe the php executable will ignore the stuff not in <? ?> and not output
the HTML

Don't name the checkboxes all the same, instead:
Option1 <input type="checkbox" name="ck0"><br>
Option2 <input type="checkbox" name="ck1"><br>
Option3 <input type="checkbox" name="ck2"><br>
Then handle it with
function getCheckboxResults($prefix=FALSE)
{
global $_POST ;
$results = NULL ; // needed for 'return' in case no items (v4.1.x)
if(is_string($prefix)){
For($i=0;$i<=count($_POST);$i++){
if(isset($_POST[$prefix.$i])) $results[] = $i ;
}
} else { return -1 ; } // throw exception in script
return $results ;
}
$selectedCKItems = getCheckboxResults('ck');
if(!$selectedCKItems) makeError('Please select at least one item.');
If a checkbox is not selected, the CGI will drop it (as in, not pass on the
name/value pair - meaning the name is not there - which is why you test for
it's existance).
I didn't test that example. But if it works, the function might be a nice
addition to your (and mine) library :)
you might use it like to:
$prefix = 'ck';
Forech($arrLabels AS $i=>$label)
printf('%s <input type="checkbox" name="%s%d"><br>\n',$label,$prefix,$i);
Then put this member functions in a class deinition and register instatiated
objects with a session to use them across pages. $arrLabels would be a
property of the class. 'ck' would be the value of another property. Maybe
your foreach statement was in a member function.
OK, I'll shut up now :)

Hello,
I wonder if anyone can help me with a problem I have. I have some sites
hosted on a Cobalt Raq4 server (not sure if this is relevant). I recently
upgraded PHP from a package at www.pkgmaster.com, and since making this
upgrade I have problems with PHP that I cannot find the solution to.
I have conacted their 'team' who have thus far offered no explanation,
saying it must be something else causing these issues with PHP, but I
haven't made any more changes, just installed the new PHP version.
The problems are with the mail() function taking an AGE to excecute, and
environmental HTTP header information not being sent/recieved by getenv().
Some examples follow..
For example, as an extremely basic example of the mail function going slow,
this simple script:
<?
mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "Test subject", "Test message");
print "finished!";
?>
Which can be found at http://www.clicktolearn.co.uk/test/mail.php in action,
ran (as it should do) extremely fast the week before I made the upgrade from
the packages. Now, as you will see, it runs dog slow.
Secondly, the following script shows the lack of headers:
http://www.clicktolearn.co.uk/test/ (click the link, so there's a referer
to the script page)...
<?
function get_http_headers($url, $proto="HTTP/1.0", $timeout=10) {

print "<br><br>";
var_dump(getenv($HTTP_REFERER));
?>
Under the "Back" link is the output of: var_dump(getenv($HTTP_REFERER));
Now I know that this was working before the upgrade, as a log in script I
use on the main site uses getenv($HTTP_REFERER) to send them back to where
they came from. This again worked 100% fine before PHP upgrade.
Sorry to take up your time, but there is a problem somewhere that has
certainly only begun with PHP since I upgraded to 4.1.2, and I dont know
what it could be!?
Thanks in advance.

Ok guys, I need help with this one. I am getting the error: Error in
query: SELECT label FROM menu WHERE id = '1'. Why am I getting this
error? It seems right to me. I have the following code to call the class
object, and I listed the class below it (I'm fairly new to classes):
// Object being called from get.php
<?php
require("menu.class.php");
$obj = new Menu();
echo $obj->get_label(1);
?>
// Class in the file menu.class.php
class Menu {
var $hostname;
var $user;
var $pass;
var $db;
var $table;
function Menu() {
$this->set_database_parameters("localhost", "username",
"password", "apps", "menu");
}
function set_database_parameters($hostname, $user, $password, $db,
$table) {
$this->hostname = $hostname;
$this->user = $user;
$this->password = $password;
$this->db = $db;
$this->table = $table;
}
function query($query) {
$connection = mysql_connect($this->hostname, $this->user,
$this->pass) or die ("Cannot connect to database");
$ret = mysql_db_query($this->db, $query, $connection) or die
("Error in query: $query");
return $ret;
}
function get_label($id) {
$query = "SELECT label FROM $this->table WHERE id = '$id'";
$result = $this->query($query);
$row = mysql_fetch_row($result);
return $row[0];
}
}
Thanks to anyone, in advance, that can help me with this one.

--- Begin Message ---I'm thinking that it probably has to do with the quoting scheme or something else. I tried it on the command line, and it worked fine. I don't even think it matters what types of quotes I use around the id field. I tried both (single and double) on the command line, and it worked just fine. In other words, the SQL is fine, and there's nothing wrong with it. It must either be how I placed the sql statement into the query or how the class is executed. I'm not sure. It might entirely be something else. But, any help on this is really appreciated. -----Original Message----- From: Jason Wong [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, March 07, 2002 3:51 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP] Database Error On Wednesday 06 March 2002 17:56, Navid Yar wrote: > Ok guys, I need help with this one.
