I believe you mean to redirect the browser to a website?
header('Location: http://www.google.com/');
Or to "incorporate" (speak steal) the website?
readfile('http://www.google.com');
Or to fetch the site to analyze it?
$hf = fopen('http://www.google.com/') or die('Cannot open google');
$buffer = null;
while ($chunk = fread($hf, 4096))
$buffer .= $chunk;
fclose($hf);
// analyze and process buffer
Enjoy :)

Most of the content on my site is generated dynamically by PHP out of a
MySQL database. This is causing me problems when indexing the site.
Since pages are created dynamically htDig records the current date as
the date the document was created. I need the create date to be the
create date from the date recorded in the database when the document /
record was added and NOT the date/time that PHP generates the document.
I am hoping that I can pass a date / timestamp in the header.
Any ideas? Or did I confuse everyone.

Dear Sirs,
How can I add or subtract two date easily. Is therea any lib or function
about this. I can not find any easy way in the manual
Best Regards

Qt,
The easiest way is to convert your dates into a serial day number(i.e.
the number of days that have elapsed between your date, and some
arbitrary date in the dim and distant past - I think PHP uses 25th
November, -4714). There are some calendar functions in php that will do
this for you. Once you have your dates as a numeric offset, you can
subtract them to get a the number of days between the dates, or you can
add or subtract a number of days to get a new offset. Once you have the
new offset, there are reverse calendar functions in php, to convert your
new offset back to a calendar date.
Check out the functions GregorianToJD(), and JDToGregorian(), in the
Calendar functions of the PHP manual. If you do not have access to the
calendar functions in your version of php, there are also a couple of
examples how to do one of the conversions written in PHP, in the user
contributed notes of the manual. There are also many published articles
describing algorithms on how to do this. I can remember implementing
these functions in 1977(Not in PHP of course), from an article published
in the journal of the ACM, in 1963.
Hope this helps. . . Fred

if the dates are timestamps, simply
$new = $timestamp2 - $timestamp1;

Try:
$today = strtotime ("1 february 2003");
$enddate = strtotime ("2 february 2003");
$diff = $enddate - $today;
Should give you a clue!

Yes, will be OK with all dates (though the valid range of a timestamp is
typically from Fri, 13 Dec 1901 20:45:54 GMT to Tue, 19 Jan 2038 03:14:07
GMT.)
The function you want for numeric dates is:
int mktime ( int hour, int minute, int second, int month, int day, int year)
so, in your example (1st Feb 2003):
$mydate = mktime(0,0,0,2,1,2003);

Hello,
Im trying to select only one row in a mysql database (in this case a poll
with the smallest pollID)...........
Each row has a field called "pollID" which is the primary key and is auto
incremented when a new row is inserted.
I could possible do the following but I think its a bit extensive:
$query = "SELECT * FROM polls ORDER BY pollID ASC";
$result = mysql_query($query);
for ($count = 0; $count < 1 $count++) {
$data = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$pollID = $data['pollID'];
}
$query = "SELECT * FROM polls WHERE pollID = $pollID";
Does anyone now a solution for this that requires less code?
Thx

Hi Jason
Man you are great, well indeed I stumbled on my stupidity by putting the
hidden name instead of making it unique I've rectified it.
The reason for passing this variable to the next page is the cats table is
only needed in the first form and the name of the cat is just printed on the
following page untill the final result page. I could have looked it up again
on the table on my next form part but thinking of saving the resource I
thought of going for the option of passing the variable.
Well I managed to do by passing the variable enclosing it in the Php tag
like this soloution found on the Forum:
<input type="hidden" name="catname" value = "<?echo $catname ; ?>"> at least
t is getting transferred but I have the problem like you mentioned, it is
only showing the last element on the table no matter what is selected on the
drop down menu. I didn't know that I could pass two values together inside
the option tag like you've shown <option value='$catid|$catname'>. If I
choose this would I need to do a while loop to get the catname or will it
find it along the catid.
Let me try without the while loop.
Thanks again Jason.

Hi ,
i'm using php in the command line and code snippet looks like:
<?php
echo "\033[1mTesting\033[0m\n";
echo "\e[31;1mTesting\e[m\n";
?>
I use ANSI sequences to colorize the output in the bash. Well executing
echo -e "\e[31;1mTesting\e[m";
in the bash works fine but doesn't in php. The bold stuff work fine
using php and bash , so i was wondering why this behavior shows up.
any clues, or redirections to other mailing lists?
regards Ali

You're missing the "-1" part in your expression:
^ Your string begins
[A-H]* with no or more letters from A to H
([0-9]+) followed by one or more digits (grouped)
- followed by a dash
$ and the end or the string
Your pattern would match "C12-", but not "C12-1". If you only need the
"C12", your pattern should look something like
'^([A-H]*[0-9]+)-'
to return the complete letter/digit sequence at the beginning of the
string, up to (but not including) the dash. Omitting the '$' (string end)
character allows for anything after the dash.

Hello List,
I'm having trouble with copy. I have this script that I got from php.net
but I can't figure out how to set the path. Right now it doesn't complain
but no files are copied. I'm trying to use a dynamically set directory to
do this, I have included ml_config to make the vars available. That's why
the $listname in the to_path. I want all the files from /maillist to got to
/$listname, I've tried all kinds of slashes, dots and anything else but I
can't seem to copy any files. It echos files copied at the end but it
lies. Here's the script ;
<?
include "ml_config.php";
$from_path ="/aamaillist/maillist05";
$to_path = "/aamaillist/$listname";
function rec_copy ($from_path, $to_path) {
if(!is_dir($to_path))
{
mkdir($to_path, 0777);
}
if ($handle = opendir($from_path))
{
while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
if ($file != "." && $file != "..") { if (is_file($from_path."/".$file))
{
copy($from_path."/".$file,$to_path."/".$file);
}
elseif ( is_dir($from_path."/".$file) )
{
rec_copy($from_path."/".$file,$to_path."/".$file);
}
}
}
}
}
echo "files copied from $from_path<br>";
echo " files copied to $to_path<br>";
echo "$PHP_SELF";
?>
Anyone see obvious errors or offer another way ?

Are you using full paths? Does the directory 'maillist' reside in the root
directory? If not, try using full paths.

I doubt whether PHP is clever enough to lie. It's only doing what you told it

Thanks Jason, but I think I've done that. I'm on windows.
I've tried c:\foxy\www\maillist\
c:\\foxy\\www\\maillist\\
.//mailist
/maillist
../maillist
anything I could think of
and tried to go to c:\foxy\www\maillist\$listname (or newlist - the
current valuse of $listname)
c:\\foxy\\www\\maillist\\$listname (or newlist - the current valuse of
$listname)

$listname)
/maillist/$listname (or newlist - the current valuse of $listname)
../maillist/$listname (or newlist - the current valuse of $listname)
none of these and probaly many others, I lost track, work.
It echos files copied at the end but it

Greetings all,
I have some PHP code that is inserting records into a DB.
Most of this is auto increment.
However I know there is allot of breaks in the sequencing.
I am wondering if there is some way to write the SQL code to search through
the existing records in the DB and to find where the next available ID is
instead of just inserting the next sequence.
So for example if the ID's are.
20453
20454
20458
20459
It would let me know that 20455 is available for use and use the ID number
instead of using 20460
Thanks all.
Phillip

Phillip,
It doesn't matter, obviously you're not using the autoincrement ID for a
foreign key. All this does is identify a record.
If you did a SELECT and found a missing sequence number, what's to say that
value would not be inserted by another user before your INSERT? If you have
not set up the table with a MyISAM, MySQL will eventually use the missing
numbers.
These are only identifying tags, with no intrinsic meaning.

Phillip,
You will have to change your code, so the primary key is not an auto
incremented value. If you don't, the auto increment will over-ride the 'get
next' function. Here is what I use in my code. You just need to change it
for your table.
//----- GetNextKey -----//
function getnextkey(){
$db = new db();
$query = "select max(MemberKey) lastkey from Members";
$result=exequery($query);
if(@mysql_num_rows($result) >0){
$numrows=mysql_num_rows($result);
$flds=mysql_num_fields($result);
//Should only be one row, but just in case
for($r=0; $r < $numrows; $r++){
$row=mysql_fetch_array($result);
$lastkey = StripSlashes($row["lastkey"]);
}
} else {
return 1;
}
if (is_numeric($lastkey)) {
return $lastkey+1;
} else {
return 1;
}
$db->closedb();

I never use auto increment. Not because of gaps, but in case I need to
reload the table. They do have meaning if they are foreign keys to another

Try http://www.php.net/md5.
Use md5 to encrypt the password, then when you need to check from login just
encrypt what is given, and see if this matches the md5 found in the

Hi everybody,
I have a form with 5 checkboxes. I want to make sure that a user checks
atleast 2 boxes before he can proceed. How can that be made possible.
Thank you

You have 2 options:
1) Client-side JavaScript: in the forms OnSubmit handler, loop your
checkboxes and make sure at least 2 are checked. If the precondition is not
met, return false from the onSubmit handler.
2) Server-Side via PHP: make an array of all available checkboxes, and walk
this array to see if you have at least 2 of these checkboxes set in your
$_REQUEST array. If the precondition is not met, retransmit the original
form without proceeding.
I'd prefer a combination of both - the JS method saves the user an
unnecessary form transmission, speeding up his entry. The server-side
script method makes sure there's no malicious user trying to trick the
system *g*

boxes are checked...could you give some example...

You can use javascript to count the number of items checked or you can
check the size of your array once the form has been submitted to the
server.

I had code working that was passing multiple select values to another screen from a
form...
In the URL on the next page I see a bunch of characters, so it doesn't work...
%5C%22year_model_id%5B%5D%5C%22=60776
Anyone know what this is and how to fix it??? It was working fine for months and just
stopped working one day.
Much appreciated...
thanks,

hello,
I have a very simply page, the users can signup for a certain time to volunteer, when
they hit submit, the page reloads but I want their time to be inserted in the db and
then displayed. After I hit submit, it brings me back to the page but their info
isn't there until I refresh. Sometimes their data never shows up yet I can print off
the sql statements, run them against the db and see all the data...is the script just
loading to fast? I have only tested this running locally.
Thanks,
Eddie

Please sign up for the hours that you can work. We need a minimum of 3 men there
for each shift. They will be doing the tire pressure checks and any other minor
maintenance that might be required. Ladies are also urged to come as we are hoping
there will be women bikers that we can minister to in whatever way is needed. Anyone
can come anytime but we need to have enough commitments that we know the break will be
staffed adequately every shift.
We cannot give away anything that would compete with the drinks and snacks that
are sold at the rest stop but we can give away ice water and possibly coffee. Thanks
for your help!

Hi,
I am developing an application which will have to
parse a html page and extract information about the
forms found.
I tried the HTMLSAX class
(http://www.phpclasses.org/browse.html/package/678.html)
which is ok except by the fact that I can not retrieve
the default/checked status from the elements.
Ie. <select name=foo><option value=bar ckecked>
Any ideias ?
Since the html will usually be ill-formed a standard
DOM-tree (with builtin functions at least) wont be possible.

John,
header(location:) is the way I'm doing it. I check for the Submit button, if
it was pressed and the processing succeeded, I redirect. If processing
fails (validation, error in connecting to the database, etc.) I redisplay
the same page with all the same variables that the user just input. I give
them a message telling them what went wrong and allow them to fix it.
If you find a better way, please share. It would be nice to have something
like <jsp:forward>

I, too, like the idea of keeping my processing code in the same file
as the form being processed. But I'm trying to figure out how to
transfer control to the next page based on the result of the forms
processing.
In JSP, i would use <jsp:forward>, which is basically a "Go to"
command. The only reference I can find to "transfer of control" in PHP
is the header(location: ) function. But that requires a complete
server/browser/server interchange.
There must be a more direct way to transfer control in PHP. Would
someone please tell me what it is?
Thanks in advance,
Frappy

Does anybody have minds about problems running long running PHP scripts as
standalone programs (ex. like servers, daemons). For example there is a
"simple TCP/IP server" in Sockets chapter of the Manual. Have anybody any
ideas how long can the script run ? is there any garbage collector in PHP,
if it is, is it enough solution? Can the script run for unlimited time ? is
there any restrictions ? Is it stable enough ?

I believe there's a way in PHP to get the URL of the page that called the
current page but can't find it. Is there such a function? Or would I have to
use another script (like Javascript)?
What I mean is if I click on a link on index.html to jeremiah.php I can call
the function and find out I just came from index.html (and not henry.php or
fred.php).
Thank you.

http://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.php#reserved.variables.server
$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']
The address of the page (if any) which referred the user agent to the
current page. This is set by the user agent. Not all user agents will set
this, and some provide the ability to modify HTTP_REFERER as a feature. In
short, it cannot really be trusted.

But it's not ALWAYS set by the browser, so don't rely on it for anything
mission critical on your site.
