It looks like Zack has a module loaded that hasn't been compiled to work with
PHP 4.1.0..
There was a structure change made between 4.0.6 and 4.1.0 that will make
extension modules incompatible between the two versions..

Lines that start with a # have been commented out so the Apache will just
ignore these.
The lines which start with AddType need to be added but so you can just
delete the # from the start of the lines below ehere it says "For PHP 4.x".
Any of the extensions in the list at the end of the line will be recognised
as PHP files. As you can see, all .html files will be processed by the PHP
application as well. Although this will work, you might like to delete .html
from the list and let apache handle these.
You can also add extensions to that list and any file ending in that will be
processed as if it was a PHP file e.g. you could add .eeek and all files
that end in .eeek would be processed by PHP!
I think that you may have to add another line to the configuration file as
well to tell it to use c:\php\php.exe for PHP files. This should be
mentioned in the install.txt if you do (I used the server module thing, not
the CGI program).
If this line isnt added to httpd.conf, I think you can add a line at the
start of every PHP file to tell it what program to use. Its something like
#!c:/php/php.exe (as you do in perl scripts) but look it up somewhere
because I'm not sure.
Hope this helps a bit!

Hi,
I wonder if there is any performance tuning newsgroup/faq/whatever related
to PHP. I searchead to no avail...
Anyway, my current mind boggler is: we are accumulating a large (~400k) XML
response in a string before sending it out by adding little pieces a time
(like 10-20 chars). Now this results in very bad performance -- most
probably due to the fact that the string is enlarged/re-allocated thousands
of times. I would love to pre-allocate a big buffer for the string so that
performance gets better (something like SetLength() in Delphi). How can I do
this?
Xuse me if the answer is much too trivial, I'm a newbie in PHPland :-)
Thanks for any suggestion,
Peter

Hello,
I am trying to use the HTTP_Referer (or any of its variants: SERVER_VARS,
ENV_VARS) to keep track of the URL of pages that are passed through forms.
Any of these variables do not work, as it is clearly stated in the
documentation, when one uses forms. Is there any way to see the URL, even
though I am using forms?
I use W2k and IIS 5
Thanks.
Mihai

you might want to see if track_vars is on? I know that I don't have
problems with those _VARS when I use a form. Are you sure the they are in
the right scope?

Yes, I think those are on, because when I use the phpinfo, the
HTTP_REFERER givces the URL of the previous link... even though I passed
through the form.
Anyway, now I am scrambling to adjust all forms in such a way that the
scripts will run only when I am moving forward, and not backward...
Thanks

I duno if you are a programmer or not. But if you are:
Check out the manual pages for php at www.php.net, I am confident that they
will provide you will all the help and support you need for you design.
If you are not:
You gave a relative good general top level overview of the specifications.
And the task is more or less a routine task for a skilled programmer, so why
not just hire some one that could do the programming from you
specifications?

It is usually wise to search through old posts before posting a question
that's been answered before all over again. Here is a previous answer given
by myself to someone who asked the same question as you:
The easiest way is to use cookies.
=========CODE============
<?php
require 'auth_functions.php';
if (authenticateUser($form_username, $form_password)){
setcookie("cookie_passwd",$form_password);
setcookie("cookie_user",$form_username);
header("Location:http://$SERVER/index2.php";);
exit();
} else {
header("Location:http://$SERVER/error.html";);
}
?>
This code takes in input from a form as simple as this:
<form name="form1" method="post" action="index.php">
Login: <input type="text" name="form_username"><br>
Password:
<input type="password" name="form_password"> <br>
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Login">
</form>
Checks it against the database values using the function 'authenticateUser',
returns TRUE or FALSE.
If true, sends the user onto the correct page, if false, sends them to some
error page.
Now, in each other file, you'll need to check the cookies. The values for
the cookies are sent automatically by the user's browser. In this
particular examples, the cookie variables are named '$cookie_user' and
'$cookie_passwd'. You can see in the example how those are set.
You will check the cookies using the exact same 'authenticateUser' function.
Except in these files, you will use the cookie values as the parameters to
the function instead of the form values. I.e.
authenticateUser($cookie_user,$cookie_passwd);
Hope this helps.
Best regards,
Jeremy Reed

I have three files:
adodb.inc.php - a database abstract class
soldier_db.inc.php - a specific include for the databases I am working
with
index.php - a page that displays lots of different things...
soldier_db.inc.php has the include line for adodb.inc.php and establishes a
connection to a mysql batabase called $connection
index.php includes soldier_db.inc.php and then tries to use some of the
class elements from adodb.inc.php and $connection **from**
soldier_db.inc.php
The debugging shows the connection as valid while echoing from the
soldier_db.inc.php but dead when echoing from the index.php
for example, this code reports "OK" while in the soldier_db.inc.php but
"Dead" in the index.php portion.... exact same code, soldier_db.inc.php
included above this code in index.php
if (!$connection) {
echo "Dead";
}
else {
echo "OK";
}
Does anyone have an idea why this is happening? None of these items are in
functions, so I guess I wouldn't think that it's a globals issue. (and I've
tried establishing $connection as a global variable to no change in results)
If anyone wants the code itself, I'll pull it out and send it.
Thanks in advance,
John
