When I add php_mssql70.dll to the dll's I want loaded in the ini file I get
the message:
'Unable to load dynamic library 'c:\PHP4/php_sql70.dll' - The specified
procedure could not be found'
The dll is in the same directory as php_gd.dll, which loads successfully.
What is happening here?

You need to have the client tools for MSSQL Server installed on the server running php
before you can load the module.
You can also copy ntwdblib.dll from \winnt\system32 on the MSSQL server to the same
location on your php-box. This will not allow you to configure the client tools though.
php_mssql70.dll is an old version of the extension. If you update to the latest
version of php4 the extension will be named php_mssql.dll.

I recently transfered a site from a server which WAS using
'magic_quotes_gpc' to one which wasn't. MAJOR pain to go through all of the
code and add the addslashes() command, so probably (for portability reasons)
bettert o use the addslashes() command by default.

Remember that the value of a cookie if updated is not available until the
next time it's loaded. So, updated & set the cookie, then set a variable to
the new value and use the variable in the page.
e.g.
setcookie("blah"......etc)
$blah="xxx";

Try using short names not long names for your paths
instead of c:\Program Files
use c:\progra~1
and so on.

Hi
What is the difference between Client side programming compared to server
side programming.
What are the advantages of server side programming if any.
Thanks
Howdy
I would say, beside the extra features and modules, the main
differences between PHP3 and PHP4 are speed and native session
support.
With PHP3 you have to use something like PHPLIB to provide
session handling, while with PHP4, these features are built in.
If you upload PHP4 (usually .php) scripts to the server, it may only
look for .php3 - check with the admins about that, but if you only
use PHP functions from PHP3 it should run fine.
Cheers

Hi,
I've made a script where I want the results of an order form to be inserted
into a MySQL database. Connecting to the database goed fine (tested it) but
my check if the values are inserted into the database gives the error
message I created "Problem, the information cannot be recorded". I hope
someone can spot the error in the script.
Please see the script below, I faked server address and user/pass and stuff.
Here a customer enters his name and address, after already selecting to buy
a new car (BMW). This is just an example.
<html>
<head>
<title>Form input & processor</title>
</head>
<body>
<?
if(!IsSet($stage))
{
?>
<p>Please fill in the form below</p>
<form method="post" action="<? print("$PHP_SELF"); ?>">
<table><tr>
<tr><td>Last name:</td> <td><input type="text" name="lname"
size="30"></td></tr>
<tr><td>First name: <td><input type="text" name="fname" size="20"></td></tr>
<tr><td>Street: <td><input type="text" name="street" size="50"></td></tr>
<tr><td>Number: <td><input type="int" name="number" size="4"></td></tr>
<tr><td>Car: <td><input type="text" name="car" size="20"
value="BMW"></td></tr>
<input type="hidden" name="stage" value="1">
<tr><td><input type="submit"></td></tr>
</form>
<?
}
else
{
/* connecting to database */
mysql_connect("address.myserver.com", "myusername", "mypassword") or
die("Problem, can't connect to database");
mysql_select_db("databasename");
/* insert values to database */
$query = "INSERT INTO tablename (lname, fname, street, number, car) VALUES
('$lname', '$fname' '$street', '$number', '$car')";
$result = mysql_query($query);
if($result == 0)
print("Problem, the information cannot be recorded");
else
print("You have succesfully placed an order for a car");
}
?>
</body>
</html>
I also had trouble with ORA 12154, but using OCILogon. I resolved it by
using not the name of the server, but the definition of its localization
(what you find in the TNSNAMES.ORA file). Something like :
$oracletns = "(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS =
(COMMUNITY = tcp.world)
(PROTOCOL = TCP)
(Host = 21.1.1.145)
(Port = 1521)
)
(ADDRESS =
(COMMUNITY = tcp.world)
(PROTOCOL = TCP)
(Host = 21.1.1.145)
(Port = 1526)
)
)
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = ORCL)
)
)";
$Conn=OCILogon($oracleusername, $oraclepassword,$oracletns);
Hope it will help you,
Best Regards,
Philippe

I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this, but I didnt see a mailing
list for anything else similar, but Im trying to extract some info from
another site using this code: (code is partially displayed, if you need the
whole thing, just e-mail me)
function get_result() {
$file=fopen($this->filename,"r");
if(!$file) {
echo "<p>Impossible</p>.\n";
exit;
}
while(!feof($file)) {
$line=fgets($file,1024);
if (eregi("<td>description</td><td>(.*)</td>", $line, $tab)) $this->
description =$tab[1];
if (eregi("<td>web site</td><td>(.*)</td>", $line, $tab)) $this->website
= $tab[1];
if (eregi("<tr><td>members</td><td>(.*)</td>", $line, $tab)) $memb =
$tab[1];
if (eregi("<td>results received</td><td>(.*)</td>", $line, $tab)) $this->
results = $tab[1];
if (eregi("<td>total cpu time</td><td>(.*)</td>", $line, $tab)) $this->
totalcputime = $tab[1];
if (eregi("<td>founder</td><td>(.*)</td></tr>",$line, $tab)) $this->
founder = $tab[1];
}
And this a sample of what Im trying to extract:
<tr><td>Description</td><td>Who ever said the aliens are trying to contact
humans, maybe they recognize the canine as the superior species on this
planet!</td></tr>
<tr><td>Web site</td><td> <a href=http://www.littlewhitedog.com>click here</a>
</td></tr>
<tr><td>Members</td><td> 198</td></tr>
<tr><td>Results received</td><td> 101729</td></tr>
<tr><td>Total CPU time</td><td> 138.611 years</td></tr>
<tr><td>Founder</td><td>
I have no problems with the description, website, results recieved or total
CPU time, it just doesnt display the members part, or the founder name. If
anyone could help me out with this I would appreciate it. If not could you
point me in the right direction? BTW Im running this on win2k with IIS5 and
php 4.0.6 (I think) Thanks in advance
~Jeff
