RE: [PHP] Sessions - more testing
I've read Nelson's message and have added the following lines:
ini_set('session.save_path','ccb_sessions');
ini_set('session.use_trans_sid','off');
ini_set('session.gc_maxlifetime', '3600');
And still get the same page not found error.

Hi,
I checked the session settings with phpinfo(); I get the following values:
session_save_path = /tmp session.use_cookies = On session.use_trans_sid = 1
I've created a folder on the same level as all the pages called
"ccb_sessions" and have CHMOD it to 777. I have added the following snippet
above session_start:
When navigating to my test page I get the following error:
Warning: open(/ccb_sessions/sess_bbbfa69631155d4097e0b0012c857c4a, O_RDWR)
failed: No such file or directory (2) in
/home/.paco/campuscb/campuscorkboard.com/MemberAccountDetails.php on line 2
Checking with my FTP client that file is there and has CHMOD values of 777.
I've done a Google search for "No such file or directory", found a bunch of
stuff for Python, nothing for PHP.
I then closed the browser, FTP'd to the ccb_sessions folder, deleted the
sess_bbbfa69631155d4097e0b0012c857c4a file and changed the session_save_path
to session_save_page("ccb_session");. When going to the test page, it
appears to loop several times, then gives me a "The page cannot be

The server is (from phpinfo())Linux gaia 2.2.20, Server API is Apache.
Other ideas?

Most things are explained well by the online manual, and you should read and
re-read the session documentation. That said, I'll also say that the
documentation on sessions is not as informative as I'd like it to be, and I
still get reports of sessions expiring before they should.
Look at the output from echo phpinfo() and check these session configuration
options:
session.cookie_lifetime -- should be 0, lasts until quitting the browser
session.use_cookies -- should be on session.use_trans_sid -- should be on
Some things aren't explained very well, like what does
"session.gc_maxlifetime" mean? The maximum time before garbage collection to
remove session data that hasn't been used? But to minimize the chance of
garbage collection on a shared server wrecking your sessions, you can
specify a directory for saving session data. Create a directory (on the same
level as your directory of publicly-viewable files if you can) and before
the 'session_start();' line, do 'session_save_path("../my_sessions_dir");'.
Also be aware that circumstances on the client side can mess with session
cookies and cause the session to be lost, like using Internet Explorer with
Entourage in Mac OS X.

Hi, I'm building a form where a user can enter text. When the form is submitted I'm doing some validation before continuing. If the form isn't filled correctly, then the user has to correct it before continuing. However, I want to save the data that has been entered (some of it may be lengthy), so I'm doing this: If the $_POSTed string has quotes in it, the output contains a slash "It's great" becomes "It\'s great" on the page. I've tried echo addslashes($_POST['adTitle']);} and that doesn't work. Is there another function that will output the string just as it was input?

[PHP] Formatting a string for entry into MySQL
Hi,
I'm trying to generate a string that contains a , to insert into a MySQL
table. It appears the is being stripped out either just before or
during the update.
** code **
// has both info, update both
$ad_contact = $tr_email;
$ad_contact .= "";
$pSep = "-";
$ad_contact .= $tr_p1AC;
$ad_contact .= $pSep;
$ad_contact .= $tr_p1PRE;
$ad_contact .= $pSep;
$ad_contact .= $tr_p1SUF;
// update the record
$qUpdate = "UPDATE subscriber_ads SET ad_contact = '$ad_contact' WHERE subid
= $sid"; print("$qUpdate"); $rUpdate = mysql_query($qUpdate, $CCB) or
die(mysql_error());
The print() statement shows the correct format in the browser. I've looked
at printf() and sprintf(), but can't quite figure the syntax.
I want the in the string so it will output correctly in the browser
when that data is retrieved from the DB.
Suggestions?

Odd. Try this
$tr_addr1 = mysql_escape_string ($_POST['addr1']);
$query = "INSERT INTO subscribers (addr1) VALUES('$tr_addr1')"; echo
("$query");
And tell us what you get. Then you at least know whether it's a MySQL

Hmm. You are quoting your HTML attributes, right? That's the only thing I
can think of that even comes close to the behaviour you describe.

What are you actually trying to accomplish here? I could tell you how to
loop through a list in a string and run a query for each number, but I'd
have the horrible feeling that you're using some inefficient method to
accomplish something.
For instance, if you're just trying to select data matching the numbers in
your list, you can do this:
$query = "SELECT * FROM Table WHERE campus_list IN
({$_SESSION['sv_CampusList']})";

Here's my code (this is just testing stuff, sv_CampusList is set somewhere else): Thanks, James -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Yup, that was it. Missing a semi-colon on line 8.

Can you give us a couple lines either side of this? This could be due
to a missing semicolon on the previous line.

[PHP] Problem with mktime, need to add 30 days to current date
Sorry about the previous post.
Hi,
I need to make a date that is 30 days from the current date, and, am
having problems with mktime
Here's what I've tried:
$endDate=date('Y-m-d',mktime(0,0,0,date('m',time()),30,date('y',time()))
);
Return this: 2003-08-30
Is there an easy way to do this?

[PHP] Code formatting issue
Is there a way I can make this type of code neater?
$thing = new whatever ();
$thing->doStuff ();
$thing->anotherThing ();
$thing->doThis ();
$thing->doThat ();
$thing->doThis ();
$thing->doThat ();
$thing->anotherThing ();
$thing->doThis ();
// etc. etc.
Some languages have the construct "with", so you can so something like this:
$thing = new whatever ();
with ( $thing ) {
doStuff ();
anotherThing ();
doThis ();
doThat ();
doThis ();
doThat ();
anotherThing ();
doThis ();
// etc. etc.
}
which is much neater. Is there anyway to do this type of thing with PHP?

[PHP] Array to List
Hello,
Coming from ColdFusion, this is difficult. CF has an ArrayToList() function.
I can't find anything similar in PHP.
I'm building a list from an array with the following code, but it puts a
trailing "," and I need to remove it.
$campusList = "";
foreach ($_POST['campus'] as $campus_ID){
$campusList .= $campus_ID;
$campusList .= ",";
}
print($campusList);
I've tried this:
if($campusList <> ""){
$chr = ",";
$campusList = strrchr($campusList,$chr);
}
But it removes everything from the list, except 1 ","
Thanks,
James

RE: [PHP] Array to List
Actually, I'm using $campusList for a SQL statement:
SELECT name FROM campuses WHERE inst_id IN ('$campusList');
It wasn't working until I found out that $campusList needs to look like
'1','2','3'.
$campusList = implode( ', ', $_POST['campus'] );
Returns 4,2,3 (whatever was selected)
I've looked in the manual on implode, but don't see how to surround each
value with single quotes. Is there another function that will do this?
Thanks,
James

When I echo $c, I get:

BTW, I saw I was using "SELECT *...", when all need is the name, so I
changed it to "SELECT name..."

All,
Thanks for your help, but this shouldn't be so freaking hard to do.
1) I have a multiple select input on one page that is populated with a list
of campuses. The user selects which campus(es) to search on.
2) the user submits the form and goes to the next page.
3) I want a list of the selected campus(es) at the top of the page

I did check the MySQL table and inst_id is an integer. When playing around
with the Query in PhpMyAdmin, I found that I needed to surround the values
in the IN clause with single quotes.
Perhaps I'm going about this the wrong way. Any advice or suggestions would
be appreciated.
Thanks,
James

You don't need the quotes if the values are integers, but if you insist...
$campusList = "'" . implode("','",$_POST['campus']) . "'";
The implode "pattern" is a single quote, comma, single quote, then surround
the whole implode result by single quotes to complete it.

[PHP] MySQL field data type for ISBN numbers
Hi, Don't know if this is an OT or not. I have a MySQL database for books. The ISBN field is set as varchar(15) and I've put a test ISBN number in of 1--111-11. Can someone tell me why this SQL query isn't working? $ISBN = $_GET['isbn']; $query = "SELECT * FROM book_details WHERE ISBN = '$ISBN'"; Since the field is a varchar, should wrapping the variable (1--111-11) in single quotes work? If I change the data in the table to 'abcd' and run this query $ISBN = 'abcd'; $query = "SELECT * FROM book_details WHERE ISBN = '$ISBN'"; It works.

[PHP] Undefined Variable errors
Hello,
I'm migrating to PHP from ColdFusion.
I've been running some sample scripts I have found in various places and all
of them throw an error:
Notice: Undefined variable: in
c:\inetpub\wwwroot\myphpcalendar\ on line .
In ColdFusion, I can use the tag to preset a variable. I've tried
the following code to define the variable in PHP, but it doesn't work:
if (!isset($VarName)) {
$VarName = 0;
}
Is there a setting in php.ini or a call in the beginning of the script that
I need to use?
