Re: [PHP] a good PHP editor

You wouldn't happen to be "...abridging the freedom of speech...", would 
you???

No, not everyone knows about astalavista.box.sk. However, most of us do. Why? 
Because people told us about it. I don't know about you, but I don't spend my 
free time punching in random URI's.

The word for this is NOT stealing. You are encouraged to download the 
software by the manufacturer. All you are doing is modifying it. What? It's 
against the EULA??? Ah, but that is why people use software like the 
customizer...

You don't need to be afraid of the police walking into your house and 
scanning your computer- if you are wise, as apparently not all of us are.


I believe that quality software should be rewarded, and in this day and age 
monetary gain is the main motivation for most people, and therefore the most 
common reward. However, I believe that the people that ambushed Mr. Maletsky 
are far worse people than he, for they assaulted him for speaking up.

Mr. Maletsky: Do not apologize to anyone for having the courage to speak up. 
Those who would smite all intellectual opposition shall only grow weak over 
time, while dragging the rest of humanity down with them. In order for us to 
grow as a species, we must work together.

I thought that was what open source was all about- working together to better 
humanity, not just ourselves. I still believe it is, but I believe that those 
who ambushed Mr. Maletsky are disgraces to this cause. You should be using 
ASP.

$sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table");

if (mysql_numrows($sql) < 1)

echo "failed or no data found";
} else {

}

Seems to work for me.

Re: [PHP] set var in PHP clarified

[Gunther E. Biernat]

Jessica,

I used that technique before PHP was available (for all readers, the key term here is 
Server Side Includes, e.g. http://httpd.apache.org/docs/howto/ssi.html.html). With PHP 
you're a lot more flexible so that you should get rid of your shtml structure, 
especially as PHP is much faster what really makes a difference if you've got many 
includes.

For this simple example, the syntax is quite similar. In your main document, simply 
type:



and in the header.html:



That's it. But remember to either set *.html files to be parsed through PHP in your 
web server configuration or rename the main document to .php (or .php3 or .php4 or 
whatever your web server needs).

[PHP] Re: PHP code produces ocasional segfaults.

[Santiago Romero]

 Hi all...

 I'm new to PHP and I needed to implement some PHP functions on
 a php webmail. I readed the PHP MANUAL and I found a code that
 suits my needs in an example, but it produces segfaults.
 I added the following code:

 $ds=ldap_connect("ldap.server.com");
 if ($ds) 
 { 
   $r=ldap_bind($ds);
   $busca="[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
   $sr=ldap_search($ds,"dc=midomain,dc=com", $busca);  
   if( ldap_count_entries($ds,$sr) < 1 )
 SetCookie( "can_use_attachs", "n", time()+3600 );
   else
   {
 $info = ldap_get_entries($ds, $sr);
 if( $info[0]["canuseattachs"][0] == 'y' )
   SetCookie( "can_use_attachs", "y", time()+3600 );
 else
   SetCookie( "can_use_attachs", "n", time()+3600 ); 
   }
   ldap_close($ds);
 }

 When I reload THOUSANDS of times the above page (using
 autoreload) and I've found that sometimes the above code
 produces an Apache Crash. I get a "Document contained
 no data" and apache/logs/error_log says:

 [notice] child pid 1234 exit with Segmentation Fault
 (core dump on /usr/apache).

 I have lots of them on different times:

[Wed Jul  4 09:10:22 2001] [notice] child pid 29834 exit
 signal Segmentation fault (11)
[Fri Jul  6 13:05:32 2001] [notice] child pid 30124 exit
 signal Segmentation fault (11)

  I did a backtrace on the core file:

(gdb) bt
#0  0xc01f2740 in kill () from /usr/lib/libc.2
#1  0x1a15a0 in sig_coredump ()

#15 0x1a35b8 in perform_idle_server_maintenance ()
#16 0x1a3b78 in standalone_main ()
#17 0x1a45c8 in main ()

 The line 161 of token_cache.c contains:

GLOBAL(tc)->count++;
   }
-->*token = &GLOBAL(tc)->tokens[GLOBAL(tc)->pos++];
return (*token)->token_type;
}

 
 I think something with my above code is wrong, because If I
 comment it using /* and */, then I don't get segfaults (never).
 Any idea of rewriting the above code so that it works would
 be very appreciated. To code the above I copied & pasted the
 PHP manual LDAP functions example, and that's why I'm asking
 directly here.

 Thanks a lot.

I think your reasoning is a little jumbled, though.  There may be some
way to do what you want to do with one query.  There usually is for the
simple things.  I'm not quite sure what you want to accomplish, though.
HTH.  :)

It depends on your needs. If you care about security you should use the
cgi-version and place it outside the web tree. And you should use
Apache's suExec option for running PHP scripts. If you care more about
performance you should use the module version. I am currently writing a
PHP security FAQ where i will describe how to do this stuff mentioned
about. I will post the URL to the list when it's done.

Yeah, you should learn Perl.  Programming Perl by O'Reilly is the best
book out there for that.  Then check out the Perl Cookbook by O'Reilly
after that.  Perl is much more powerful than PHP, but PHP is easier to
integrate in to web pages.  But not by much.  Perl is like a swiss army
chainsaw.  You can use it for pretty much anything, data manipulation
wise.  That's where it really shines.  PHP has gotten better with PHP4's
release, but Perl's syntax is much more lenient and intuitive, making it
much easier to do things in Perl than it is in PHP.

[PHP] System() and PGP

[David Price]

I have been trying to run PGP commands within PHP with the system()
function.  PGP is installed on the web server, and all the commands work
fine when I'm su'ed as the nobody user (the web server user).

I can use this command to encrypt messages:

system("pgp -ea $plainTxt 'David Price <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>'");

without any problems.  But when I try,

 system("pgp");

I don't get any output.  It should display the general help text.  I can run
other commands like ls and ps without any problems as well.  Does anyone
know what is going on here?

Thanks for your help,

David Price

[PHP] File Upload Headaches

[Jason Rennie]

Hi all,

Can anybody see what is wrong with this code ??


echo "\$userfile = $userfile";
echo $HTTP_POST_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'];


// now to provide an assignment submission box
print "";
print "\n";
print "\n";
print "Submit A File ";
print "\n";
print "\n";
print ""; 


this is just a code fragment but, essentially the form submits back to
itself.

When i try to output the $HTTP_POST_FILE['userfile']['any thing']
variables they are not set, and $userfile is simply set to the filename on
the other computer.

Any ideas about what an earth i'm doing wrong 

Jason

[PHP] Re: OT Math Question

[Paul A. Procacci]

Well, If I'm right.  The total number of posible combinations in the NJ
state lottery, assuming there are, say, 56 numbers is 

var total = 56;

total*(total-1)*(total-2)*(total-3)*(total-4)*(total-5) == 23377273920:1

Now that assuming one number was pulled from the pot and the same number
didn't exists in the pot.  Now, please anyone correct me if I'm wrong,
but I believe the solution to rm's quesion is as follows:

var dp_menus = 4   // Number of drop-down menus
var dp_items = 5   // Number of dp_items per menu

dp_menus^dp_items == 1024:1 //Total number of possibilities

Does that look right?  I hope this helps

Assuming you know the date of each entry, do a Date("z")
(day of the year), and divide it by 7. 

Store that and compare it next time around the loop.

If it's different then a week has passed and you can 
do Fun Stuff(tm).

If it's the same then it hasn't.

[PHP] Weekly Separation

[Chris Aitken]

Hey all,


Im working on a system to be able to take a big list of entries that is 
sorted by a date field, and be able to identify them into weekly groups 
(monday to monday or sunday to sunday etc).

So basically, for the example here, say I had 100 entries over a 1 month 
period. What I want to be able to do is, as the 'while' loop is running, 
every time a weeks worth of entries passes it does some defined task 
(alternate colour, insert a line break or whatever).

Ive been working on a way but it seems a very long and involved method. Has 
anyone got any pointers or ideas they might be able to throw at me so I can 
make this a more simple method.



Thanks


Chris

strip_tags() appears to have some holes in it, but the comments offered
provided some work arounds.

Re: [PHP] MySQL Query.....

[Deependra B. Tandukar]

Thanks but it is not working!

My problem goes like this:
Frankly speaking I am trying to make web based accounting package for my
organization.

I have talbes:
Voucher
Sales
Cash
Bank
Income
Expenses, etc.

All are of the follwoing structure
VN Date   AccountHead AccountType DrCr
Remarks

Suppose there is a entry like in Voucher
1012001-07-18 Sales FixedAsset  0   5000
Monitor sold
1012001-07-18 Cash CurrentAsset   5000   0
Monitor sold

In Sales
1012001-07-18 Cash CurrentAsset 5000  0
Monitor sold

In Cash
1012001-07-18  SalesFixedAssets  0   5000
Monitor sold

Now if I have to have Bank in place of Cash with VN=101, I simply go and
change in Voucher HTML form and press "Submit button", it takes effect in
all the required tables except in Sales (the entry should chage from Cash to
Bank in this case). ( for you info I am using

while ($row=mysql_fetch_array($query)) {
$VN=$row["VN"];
$Date=$row["Date"];
$AH=$row["AccountHead"];
$AT=$row["AccountType"];
$Dr=$row["Dr"];
$Cr=$row["Cr"];
$Remarks=$row["Remarks"];
echo "




";
};

I am trying to select Sales table from TableCash.AccountHead. In fact I am
trying to select an AccountHead from Cash where VN=101 and converting the
AccountHead into Table name. In HTML, both the AccountHead are named as AH

So is there any way that converts selected Cash.Sales from (Table)Cash into
(Table)Sales? I did something like "Update $AH.AccountHead  (AccountHead)
values ($AH)";

By doing this the error I get is "Bank.Sales" table not exist.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Warm Regards,
DT

You might want to look into mysql_errno and mysql_error; also 
mysql_affected_rows to give you feedback on INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE

Re: [PHP] Re: PHP vs Perl Question

[Francis Fillion]

Well then, maybe you don't have/need to learn perl, perl is a pretty
good language for system administration of any sort, if you were on
Unix/Linux well yes of course but on WIndows. I think the better things
for you is to learn PHP and know everythings about it. If you have to
use time for php and perl, you will lose your time, begin with php and
after that if you want to learn perl go for it.

[PHP] mime types & file uploads

[Carolyn Campbell]

I have a strange problem.  When I upload files, the mime-type gets 
appended to the top of the file, so if I upload a text file

Content-Type: text/plain

is appended to the top.  It's causing images to break.  Has anyone 
had similar problems?

If it hasn't been mentioned already, check out vim (www.vim.org).  I got
hooked on it using by using Linux.  This summer I'm interning at a place
where there is no alternative to Windows.  Fortunately, vim has been
ported to win32...

Of course non-Unix folks might find vi-like editor kind of goofy... but
it's worth a try, you might like it :)

HomeSite used to be a great editor until version 4 - that's when it began to
have memory problems, and that's when I switched to TextPad (although this

You could also define a list of tags you allow and pass them to the

Actually, I truly am ignorant of the limits, but hopefully I've avoided
any disastrous outcomes in my solution.

I tried your code above, and while it did process the mime, it didn't
return the results so that I could determine the file name. I did try
many different tacks, but nothing seemed to work -- that may of course
just be due to my limited knowledge.

After messing with this for several days, I found that metamail was a
poor choice anyway, reading that development has apparently stopped and
that it has a security hole in the current version. 

I then tried reformime, from the maildrop package. It worked better, but
I ran into the same problems trying to get it to work with PHP.

In the end, I opted to have my mail server (qmail) pipe incoming
messages to MHonArc (it does a wonderful job handling mime). MHonArc
extracts the mime and then passes the rest of the message to PHP, which
puts it into an MySQL database. This may not be an elegant solution, and
I suspect it's wasteful of resources, but my usage is only for our
internal customer support and contact management -- a hundred or so
e-mail a day.

While this took far longer than I ever expected, it is wonderful to be
able to match incoming mail against our user database (which is in
MySQL). Now a user's entire record, past e-mail, followups and the whole
thing pop-up whenever they send us a message.

Thanks for all the effort.

Jeff Hill

I'd go for it. Perl can be messy, but it is also quite powerful and
doesn't HAVE to be messy. It is EVERYWHERE both in terms of availability
and use. But most of all, it is a fun language to play with... and if you
do any system admin it is an indispensable tool.

I recommend _Beginning Perl_ from Wrox over _Learning Perl_ by O'Reilly,

RE: [PHP] PHP vs Perl question

[Nathan]

I personally try and avoid using Perl when I can. Perl is difficult to
learn to write proficient code in. Perl's moto is, "There is More Than
One Way to Do It" which also mean there are more than a million ways to
mess up. Depending upon the programmer Perl can be a write-only
language. You can even look at your own Perl code and think "What in the
world, did I write this?" My mind is cluttered with enough garbage so I
will not learn anymore  Perl than necessary. Long live modern languages!

Perl is a necessary evil for a web developer, so I recommend O'Reilly's
Learning Perl, http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/lperl3/

Good idea.  Combined with MERGE tables, this might really boost
performance when reading.  Just let the table grow to, let's say, 500k
rows and then create a new table.

Hmm, actually I'd also suggest to use RAID - real RAID I mean, not
software RAID.  Using two (or more) disks will speed things up
tremendously, because the system will then read and write simultaneously
from multiple disks.

How you do this does in depends on your requirements.

Is this blob of HTML data something you need to be able to parse
into and analyse, or is only ever going to be used as a single
unit? In that case your solution is probably the best one, except
I would make sure you use the standard mappings for this which
are
  "<" ==>   "<"
  ">" ==>   ">"
   pre-existing "&"   ==>   "&"

as any XML tool worth it's salt will provide a simple way to do
this transformation. The php function for encoding a lump of
text in this way is "htmlspecialchars", and I suspect the XML
parser will autonmatically decode it for you.

If this is a blob of data you need to be able to analyse then
is not HTML any more, so much as an integral part of the
structure of your document that has certain similarities with
HTML. If you are using a DTD, I would figure out what HTML
you actually need and define a subset of allowable elements
and use those.

If you are using merely well formed XML, then you can slot in whatever
you like, as long as
a) You have it wrapped up in a element name liked ""
b) Your HTML is XHTML
However, I personally thing not having a DTD give you no discipline,
structure or specification and is a bad idea.

Re: [PHP] PHP vs Perl question

[Francis Fillion]

 I do love perl, even if I mostly code with PHP, but I use perl for
stuff that run with a crontab (a script that run on every x date or
hours), I know that you can do that with PHP now too, but Perl is a
really great and funny language to learn, the best regular expression
that I ever use (I still use the perl regular expresion in PHP), just
for that you should learn they language. Once you know a language it's
easy to change or learn an other one, the best thing should be learn
what you need and get good on this one and if you need an other language
then the stuff that you have learned will help you up to learn you new
stuff.

Book: Learning Perl from O'reilly, O'reilly have the better good,
amazing book for Perl.

Re: [PHP] Question about hosting

[Francis Fillion]

 Well for myself I will better like to have the 2 computer design, 1 for
httpd and 1 for mysql, it's alway's better that way the few nano that
you lose in transit are way better then a server that do both stuff. Now
the problem (that eat a lot of time is php and mysql, doh!). So you have
optimise that, is mysql will be mostly for read or write data what kind
of %, if you need more read or more accurate read then write I suggest
you to have a lot of heap table (in memory table, put them read only and
get them to regenerate at every x times), copy of the mainly used data
in your application, with a lot of ram that will speed-up the main
thing. Then an other thing is to take big table and put them in smaller
table, way faster for writing/reading (hum, I don't quite remember if
mysql is row locking or table locking during write?).

Then they other best stuff is to make your dynamic page (.php) and to
make them static page (.html) this way you will get way faster viewing
page, you don't have they overload of neither php, nor mysql processing.
khttpd anyone?

Anyway, you could do a lot of stuff, load-balacing, an other server for
just your image, ...

If you want more, you should go at http://www.slashdot.org/ and do a
little search on that subjectthey had a few good article on that on the
last few month, year,...

My exp... If you do this have a FAST and VERY FAST and secure connection
between them. Remember, querying a database that's not on the same box
takes longer... (perhaps if the webserver has too workload, not) but
under normal circumstances... it has to travel ... 

Other solution would be a powerfull box doing both. 

Database on one SCSI disk, WEBsites on ANOTHER and preferably OS on
another different. That way three partitions can be read at the same
time.  (Forget crappy 'ultrasuperfast IDE'... )


Memory... tons of memory... :) 512 and up to avoid any kind of swapping.
And of course 100MB switches/cards/cables.

Dual CPU will help... and after those hits start 'hitting' you could
evaluate which service has more load (httpd for sure will be).

Hope this helps... 

Martin.

be. I decided to buy edit+ (my trial was over).

I'm happy w/ edit +.

Apart from that.. htmledit had some problems w/large files... 

Regards,

Martin.

[PHP] \' issue

[Hugh Danaher]

Rasmus, solved this problem for me earlier today.  Hope this helps

Rasmus,

Thank you very much.  I ended up using the following statement, and it
works!!

> $results=mysql_query(stripslashes($sql_statement));

What I have now is a textarea box where I can input trial searches.  This is
why I'm dealing with the whole sql statement.  With time, I plan on passing
only the variables.
Thanks again.
Hugh

Re: [PHP] Code Refusing to Die

[Sheridan Saint-Michel]

I thought about file_exists... but url is by definition a remote file and
file_exists does not work on remote files.
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.file-exists.php

What I don't understand is why the die statement never executes.
If you try to fopen a file that doesn't exist shouldn't fopen return false?

[PHP] Question about hosting

[Jay Paulson]

Hello everyone-

I need some expert advice so I turn you to all! :)

I'm am currently in the process of making 7 web sites using PHP and MySQL
backend.  I'm porjecting that all of these sites combined will get a million
plus hits a month easy when it's all said and done.  What I'm wanting to do
is to put the database on it's own machine and put the sites on a different
machine to reduce the cpu load.  However, I'm not 100% sure this is the best
option.  I know there are a ton of variables to consider with this situation
and I'm trying to figure out the best way to go so I don't have to redo it
again.

I'm thinking with the traffic these servers are going to incur if they are
on one computer then I should probably have a dual CPU with a gig of ram or
more and two hard drives.. Once CPU for serving up the pages and once CPU to
run the db.  Also, one HD for the db and one HD for the pages in trying to
get the most performace out of one machine.

Some of the dedicated options that people have thrown to me are in the range
of a 450 CPU with 512 Ram and 30GB drive.  I don't think that with so many
pages being served that this system will handle it.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
jay

[PHP] What PHP function to use to clean up PGP encoded text under Outlook Express?

[Scott Brown]

I've got PHP a routine that encodes some sensitive information using PGP and
then emails this from my linux server to a few separate people

People using Outlook (full version) see a perfectly formatted message when
it gets decoded.

People using Outlook Express see the message with the \n not being replaced
as CR/LF


nl2br() is going to HTML-ize the string which isnt what I want...  it's
got to be changed to the windows-required newline char pattern ...

So which one is right?

str_replace("\n","\r\n",$input)

or

str_replace("\n","\n\r",$input)

[PHP] sendmail scripts -which user?

I would like to use the PHP Mail() function. I know
that my script that uses it works, because I have used
it on another server. 
But there seems to be a problem with sendmail, and
whether I can send email as an anonymous user
(noboby).
Anyone have any thoughts on this one?

I can't speak for Win9x, but on NT and now 2K, I have been using Homesite
for YEARS, open all the time, editing many pages (I'm lazy so I typically
have 20-30 pages open at any given time), heavy use of regex search and
replace across folders, etc. and I have never run out of resources or had
problems with memory. The only features I have ever had problems with were
some of the deployment scripting features in the Cold Fusion studio
version of Homesite. But now that I don't have to do Cold Fusion any
longer...

I understand Win 9x is a different story. I also know that people's
mileage may vary. But for my money it is the best HTML/XML/PHP/etc editor
out there, for a full-fledged editor. 

Other than that, I highly recommend TextPad.

How weird. I have an old computer windows Win 98 with only 64M RAM and I've 
never had any problem with Homesite. I'm always running it and at least 2-4 
browser windows and Eudora with no problems.

Perhaps I've just been lucky, but I've been using Homesite since it was 
shareware. :)

Re: [PHP] Code Refusing to Die

[rm]

$fp is not a valid file handle because the url is
invalid, it can't close a file handle for a file that
wasn't opened because it never existed (invalid url).
You need to fix the logic to allow for the possibility
that a file does not exit and therefore cannot be
closed. Maybe the php function file_exists might be of
some use.

Well. The word for this is "stealing", and should be dealt as such..
Besides, shareware/demos allow you to try it anyway; and how could you
crack something else?:) besides obtaining it illegaly - and that's double
robbery.

There are lot of free (and good) software around. The things are just in
to be informed. And information - is often in different kind of Unions
possesion.. but (i think:) it should be mostly (although sometimes it is a product too)
freely and easily publicly available. (speaking of general information in general:)

Re: [PHP] remove me from php list

[jimw]

the unsubscribe address works exactly as advertised, if you can be
bothered to read the directions. 347 people have managed to do so this
month. (and 372 have managed to subscribe, so i guess the list is
growing.)

otherwise, you can always contact the list administrators, the address
for which is also at the bottom of every message. they don't act as
quickly as the automated unsubscribe, but they'll get to your request
eventually.

> To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

(and, as a general rule, none of the list adminstrators pay attention
to unsubscribe requests sent to the mailing lists themselves.)

The feature I use the most (and need it for the most) is how
it sets up "Projects".  I wish I could find something else that
did that (well).  If I could, I'd move to it in a heartbeat.

Not alot.  ALOT.  Huge, massive amounts of resources.  I'm

I haven't seen any other programs for Windows you can edit remote files
instead of the usual "download, edit, upload". Let me know if there are
other good editors with this feature.

It supports lots of formats - not just .php, and i think it's _the_ editor
to use if you do presentation programming.

There are three bad things about this program though;
1, The price - $99 usd ($89 if you download it).
2, It takes alot of system resources.
3, There are still some bugs in their ftp engine.

There's a 30-day evaluation to grab from www.allaire.com or
www.macromedia.com

I hope this helps.

Best regards,
Johannes Schill

Re: [PHP] Slash Problems When Using PHP and POST.

[Dave Stewart]

I had this problem last week

You need to add the stripslashes function to the string that contains the
uploaded text.

print stripslashes($file) or print stripslashes($contents) I think should do
it.

[PHP] OO Oh My: Need Help on BBS OO Logic

[Chris Abraham]

PHP List:

I am doing a pretty cool gig and I have decided to map a Nodal network
using a "threaded BBS"-type +/- hierarchical system. I am imitating
Chapter 29 in the SAMS _PHP & MySQL_ book and I love the model.  I am not
having a lot of luck in mapping my MySQL DB to the model and not only that
but I am getting funny "triple" repeats and recursive memory bloats and
all sorts of terrible things.

I am using my DB schema/structure:

connections(node1,node2)
contacts(contid,node,admintech)
maps(node,maptype,mapurl)
node_types(typeid,typedesc)
nodes(nodeid,nodename,toplevel,nodetype,moreinfo,city,state,country,homepage,bandwidth)
peers(peer1,peer2,transitfrom,transitto,bandwidth)
people(personid,firstname,lastname,phone,cell,fax,email,moreinfo)
updown(upnode,downnode,bandwidth)

The only tables I am using for the "threaded nesting bulletin board" model
is:  nodeid, upnode, downnode, nodename, moreinfo

A list of the files follows:

(You can look at the source at http://www.zdev.net/i2/ I didn't include
db_fns for the obvious reasons):

data_valid_fns.php
db_fns.php
discussion_fns.php
include_fns.php
index.php
new_node.php
output_fns.php
store_new_node.php
treenode_class.php
view_node.php
images/
blah_blah.gif
cancel.gif
collapse.gif
expand.gif
index.gif
minus.gif
new_post.gif
plus.gif
post.gif
reply.gif
spacer.gif

And this is how it barfs:

http://www.internet2.edu/arena/29

So, what do you think?

It should look like:

Internet2 Nodes
+ Abilene
+ DANTE

And when you click on the "+" or "-", then you should see it cascade only
to the children.  All I get is nasty "memory overflow" fun!

And not three copies of everything!  Here is a little bit of a way the
data looks:

mysql> select * from updown limit 30
-> ;
++--+---+
| upnode | downnode | bandwidth |
++--+---+
|  1 |2 | 0 |
|  5 |6 | 0 |
|  6 |7 | 0 |
|  2 |3 | 0 |
|  2 |4 | 0 |
| 17 |8 |20 |
| 17 |9 |10 |
| 17 |   10 |20 |
| 17 |   11 |10 |
| 17 |   12 |20 |
| 17 |   13 |20 |
| 17 |   14 |20 |
| 17 |   15 |20 |
| 17 |   16 |30 |
|  6 |   17 | 2 |
|  5 |   17 |34 |
++--+---+

The IDs under 'updown.upnode' and 'updown.downnode' equal 'nodes.nodeid'

And here is the other table, 'nodes':

mysql> select nodeid, nodename from nodes limit 20;
+++
| nodeid | nodename   |
+++
|  1 | Abilene|
|  2 | CALRen2|
|  3 | UCLA   |
|  4 | Stanford   |
|  5 | DANTE  |
|  6 | JANet  |
|  7 | Cambridge  |
|  8 | Dublin City University |
|  9 | Dublin Institute of Technology |
| 10 | National University of Ireland, Galway |
| 11 | National University of Ireland, Maynooth   |
| 12 | Trinity College|
| 13 | University College, Dublin |
| 14 | University College, Cork   |
| 15 | University of Limerick |
| 16 | Network of Institutes of Technology (ITNet)|
| 17 | HEANet |
+++

I didn't include 'nodes.moreinfo' because the table is prettier this way.

Anyway, If you can please help me, or at least point me in the pants or in
the right direction -- and if I missed something ala glaring omission,
then please ask any questions!

I am using PHP ala http://www.internet2.edu/arena/29/info.php

Cheers,

Chris

did you test $result ?

It's usually helpful to check the manual when you're not sure of the syntax
for MySQL you can use NOW() , CURDATE(), or CURRENT_DATE.

[PHP] Slash Problems When Using PHP and POST.

[Corin Rathbone]

I have created a php page that loads a file into a textarea. You can then
edit the file and click "Save" and it POSTS it to the same page (edit.php)
on the server. It saves it but it adds slashes before any speech marks ("").
Can somebody please help me with this.

It changes:

to:


Below is the code for the page edit.php:





Edit A File - File Explorer For 








Edit A File

" );
print( "$file" );
print( "\n" );
print( "\n" );
print( " \n" );
print( "\n" );
print( "" );
print( "  \n" );
print( "$contents" );
print( "  \n" );
print( "  \n" );
print( " \n" );
print( "" );
}
elseif($save){
print( "\n" );
print( "File: " );
print( "$file" );
if($worked){print( " has been saved!" );}
else {print( " has not been saved!" );}
print( "" );
}
else {
print( "Please Select A File To Be

No, it is one arg q='task management'; the plus is interpreted as a space.
If you want to keep the (+) symbol use web?q=task%2bmanagement& ...

also look at urlencode/decode() functions.

[PHP] Code Refusing to Die

[Sheridan Saint-Michel]

Okay... I can't figure out why this isn't working...

When I enter in a valid URL this function works fine...

The problem is when I enter an invalid url, rather 
than getting my (semi) friendly die error I get

Warning: fopen("http://www.foxjet.com/html/fjmain.html","r";) - Unknown error in 
/home/www/foxjet/admin/mailer.php on line 37

Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid File-Handle resource in 
/home/www/foxjet/admin/mailer.php on line 38

Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid File-Handle resource in 
/home/www/foxjet/admin/mailer.php on line 39


Here is my function (With Line numbers added)

31: Function CreateMessage($url,$boundary)
32: { 
33:
34:   if (substr($url,0,7) != "http://";)
35: $url = "http://"; . $url;
36:
37:   $fp = fopen($url,"r") or die("Page $url Not Found!");
38:   $buffer = fread($fp, 10);
39:   fclose($fp);

/* More Code */

65: }

Any ideas?  Am I overlooking something?

If you're using MySQL 3.23 (or newer) and the field is one of the date, 
time or datetime types, use NOW()

For example:
$query = "Insert INTO visits (visName, date)
values ('$name', NOW()) " ;

This returns a "-MM-DD HH:MM:SS" string that MySQL will 
automatically convert to any of the date/time field types.

[PHP] adding the date to a database

[Brad Wright]

Hi, 
I have a database with a 'date' field. What is the syntax for using the
(mysql) function 'getdate()', to insert the date into the DB table.
the syntax I'm currently using is:
$query = "Insert INTO visits (visName, date)
values ('$name', getdate()) " ;
$result = mysql_query($query, $db);

This does not work (but returns no errors) ie, nothing inserted into the
database.

Thanks,
Brad

[PHP] Fwd: Rogue Cookie interference

[Jason Bauer]

I recently received a note from a user of my PHP website saying that they 
came to my page and received no content. After investigating the problem, I 
found that another site (doubleclick.net to be specific) had set a cookie 
with the same name as a variable (id) that my script uses to determine 
which output to display. So, since the contents of this cookie were not 
recognized by my script, nothing was displayed.

My question is, how could this happen?? I was under the impression that 
cookies were linked to a specific domain, therefore cookies from another 
site could not interfere with my site. We deleted the cookies from her 
computer and it is working again for now, but if it can happen to her it 
can happen to anyone.

Any explanations on how this cookie was read by my PHP script would be 
appreciated... I know I can always tell PHP to not put cookie data into the 
variable, but I shouldn't have to do that. Thanks!

[PHP] SITE/PAGE C.A.S.E. tool project

[Dennis Gearon]

I would just like a show of hands(emails) of those interested in having a
WEB/PHP based Finite State Machine (FSM) tool that would allow designing AND
displaying the decision logic of a page or site. (look

It would use SSL to transfer data to/from the web interface.
It would use SCP/SFTP to transfer to/from the script's buffer vars.
It would be able to be sited on one site, and edit:
That site's design.
Other sites' designs(providing you had the correct passwords/certificates).
It would create logical and faster decision paths in pages, especially those
that
are multipart pages, for example, shopping carts, membership entry screens.
It would bring making PHP web pages closer to making real applications that

It could be used to rewrite PHPLIB/PEAR and make it easier to maintain them and
extend them for future functionality.

It would use a State Event Matrix(Table) as input/display.

Because the query itself is still valid.  No syntax errors, no
connection errors, etc.  The fact that there wasn't any data that needed
to be deleted doesn't affect the validity of the query; just the results
of it.

Basically, what it boils down to is that "There wasn't anything for me
to do" is not an error.  It's a perfectly valid result.  :)

Re: [PHP] Fw: Data from SQL to a string in a useable format

[Sheridan Saint-Michel]

This may be way out in left field... but since no one else seems to be
answering,

Have you considered using something like base64_encode?
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.base64-encode.php

That would change your image to plaintext without any characters that need
to be escaped.

The when you retrieve it you would just run it through base64_decode and
viola!

I have never tried this, and like I said there may very well be a better
solution.
(Especially since the DB is usually the bottleneck and base64_encode
actually makes the file bigger)

Let me know if that helps
Sheridan

Subject: [PHP] Fw: Data from SQL to a string in a useable format


Ok, never got a reply yesterday, so I figured I'd resend this.  can this
even be done?
__

How can I pull my data from my SQL db, and store it as a string so that it
can be used? Specificly, I'm working with images.

When the images are stored in the database, the only pre-processing that is
done is:

$img = addslashes(fread(fopen($userfile, "r"), filesize($userfile)));

(* note: $userfile is the file identifier from my upload form.)

I want to pull the data out of the database and store it in a string, so
that I can use imagecopyresampled to create a thumbnail, but I just can't
seem to get it to work

please help!!

Thanks,  Jason
