Bah, not the answer I was looking for...I really wanted to use PHP and I
have most of what I wanted accomplished. Thanks for the tip, I will

[PHP] php-cli - Controlling external programs

2003-07-30 Thread Mike Maltese
I'm writing a script to be run from the command line. It controls my DAT
autoloader (tape changer) and runs tar so that I can automate my backups.
With the -M option, tar will prompt for a new tape when the current tape is
full. How can I get the signal from tar that the tape needs to be changed?
Is there another way to interact with external programs other than, exec,
backticks, etc.? I'm running 4.3.2-cli on FreeBSD with POSIX and pcntl
functions enabled.

Thanks,
Mike

Re: [PHP] Oddity

You may want to give mysql_fetch_object a try. I like it because you end up
typing less. You access elements like this: $row->data, instead of
$row['data']. Just my $0.02.

Re: [PHP] Oddity

This could be the problem in your for loop: $elementKey = key(
$macroDataArray ) - you're using the = assignment operator. Try == or <=.

etc., etc.

Just make sure that they are all sent before you start any output to the

Re: [PHP] configuring php and apache

2002-01-29 Thread Mike Maltese

Problems I see:

First, use forward slashes!

extension_dir = c:\windows\system32//points to where i located the
php4ts.dll file

This should be the folder that contains extension dll's. If you used the
installer it will be "C:/php/extensions" (no quotes) or wherever you
installed PHP.


doc_root = c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs

Same thing about forward slashes here.

Good luck!

hi all,
i have installed php and apache on my home computer..i am running xp home

the problem is that the php and apache are not working together. what i have
done so far:

1. configured the httpd.conf file by adding the following lines:
ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml
Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php.exe"

2.moved the php4ts.dll file to windows\system32note i do not have a
directory called winnt

3.configured the php.ini file(located in windows dir)so that:

extension_dir = c:\windows\system32//points to where i located the
php4ts.dll file

doc_root = c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs//points to the
document root file. i will be storing my files in the htdocs dirrectory.
