[PHP] Next Book

2001-07-08 Thread Chris Lott

Finished with Beginning PHP from Wrox. Am eyeing Advanced PHP from Wrox.
Other good books I should think about? Recommendations? Reviews? I know the
PHP FAQ has pointers to books, but I am looking for recommendations on what
I SHOULD get as I transition from a Cold Fusion person to a PHP devotee :)

Also looking for a good book on MySQL. The MySQL/MSQL book from O'Reilly is
pretty dated.

Re: [PHP] Next Book

2001-07-08 Thread rick

I started off with a Core PHP4 book and quickly outgrew it.  I find that
most of the books don't get much past the basics either, so I find myself
sticking to www.php.net and it's wonderful searchable documentation.

I have read Web Application Development with PHP4.0
(http://www.phpwizard.net), which I enjoyed.  While it does go into some
more advanced PHP syntax, it mostly discusses application development
concepts -- stuff that would be boring for any experienced programmer of
other languages.  I think it's geared at the people who picked PHP up as
their first language (me included).

I'd be interested in some good PHP books as well, I feel like I'm in a rut.
At first, PHP was all new, and I was learning s much... but now if I
think up a task I can visualize how to do it in PHP pretty easily.  I know I
have a LOT to learn, but I think my problem is I don't know proper
programming techniques...

Has anyone tried to expand into other languages?  I like perl due to its
heavy similarity to PHP, but I like to focus on web stuff.

[PHP] open_basedir

2001-07-08 Thread Yacoon

mornin,

i´m new to the list and to php, so please don´t jump to hard on me, when you
think the question is dump.


okay: is there a possibility to make a server only execute the php scripts
in the document root it was called from?
I saw something about open_basedir, but am not sure if that is the way.

I badly need to protect the server from i.e. includes, that read out or
manipulated server config files, like passwd.
I have systems run under redhat, if that matters. could anyone please just
let me know how and where?
I´ll definatelly need the correct syntax, since that’s my main-problem with
php.

thanks a lot - ulrich

I would recommend the PHP Developer's Dictionary - it is high-quality,

building your own PHP extension.

[PHP] multiple outputs to mysql_query()

2001-07-08 Thread Adam

i want my mysql query result to output 2 mysql output rows for every tr
set. I'm used to just doing a do/while statement for a single mysql output
per row.

example:

//the code i have essentially does this

-
?php

echo 'table';

$result = mysql_query(SELECT * from table WHERE type='default');

do {

echo 'trtd
' . $myresult[column] .
'/td/tr';

} while ($myresult == mysql_fetch_array($result));

echo '/table';

?


//outputs:

table
tr
tddata for row 1/td
/tr
tr
tddata for row 2/td
/tr
...etc...
/table

---

i want it to output like this:

table
tr
tddata for row 1/td
tddata for row 2/td
/tr
tr
tddata for row 3/td
tddata for row 4/td
/tr
...etc...
/table

--

if anyone can help me with alternating like this or knows where i can find a
resource tutorial on it please tell me..

thanks

[PHP] Sort an array by its values

Hi All,
  I'm trying to sort an array of objects by the value of one of those
objects...
for instance, I'll have an object with 2 properties, id and score, where
id is unique and score is its relevant (and sometimes simelar) score. i've
tried using sort() and asort() but i can't figure how to base the sorting
off the value (i.e. score) of the object in the array. Any help?

Good books for advanced topics are:
PHP4 Developer's Guide (Schwendiman)
PHP Developer's Cookbook (Hughes)
Web Application Development for PHP 4.0 (Ratschiller, Gerken)

And for MySQL,
Surprisingly, O'Reilly's version is weak, but Dubois' MySQL for New Riders
is very comprehensive. NuSphere hired Dubois as a tech writer for them a few
months back, too... :-)

I'm not sure of the actual structure of your array, though, so those might

Hello,

I'm new to this list (today, as a matter of fact).  Normally I would 
lurk awhile to get a feel for the list etiquette but feel the 
pressure to learn PHP quickly.  I want to apologize, in advance, if 
I'm committing any list sins.

I am looking to find a someone who is well versed in PHP that would 
consider tutoring someone in the Los Angeles area.  I am really 
looking for someone in this area so that we can work face to face.  I 
have several years experience programming other languages but am 
having trouble with sessions in PHP (amongst other things).

I can be flexible with my time to accommodate your schedule.  If you 
are interested, please email me with some information about your 
experience, some contact info and a best time to call.

Thank you in advance for your responses.

Sincerely,

Mario A. Salinas

I think array_multisort is supposed to do this but I couldn't get it to
work.

Have a look at the usort call in the following routine;

// Reads a directory and puts filenames into a array sorted by date
function GetFiles ($DataPath, $files, $nfiles) {
  $handle=@opendir($DataPath);
  if ($handle) {
$nfiles = 0;
while (false!==($file = readdir($handle))) {
  if ($file != .  $file != .. ) {
$files[$nfiles][name] = $file;
$files[$nfiles][date] = filemtime($DataPath.\\.$file);
$nfiles++;
  }
}
if($nfiles1){
  usort($files,
create_function(
'$a,$b',
'return $a[date]==$b[date]?0:($a[date]$b[date]?1:-1);')
  );
}
closedir($handle);
  }
}

RE: [PHP] Sort an array by its values

2001-07-08 Thread Aaron Bennett

Chris,
   Due to the amount of HTML contained within the object, it would be nearly
impossible to decipher from a print_r() the way it was... I was able to make
an assoc. array with the id as the key and score as value, so i get
something more like:

Array ( [29] = 152 [13] = 98 [58] = 134 [6] = 66 [9] = 66 [15] = 68
[18] = 86 [49] = 66 [50] = 104 [51] = 66 [52] = 66 [59] = 100 [61] =
68 [66] = 68 )

which i should be able to use uasort() and array_reverse() to order them and
maintain the correct index...

Thanks for the help, i think i got it from here.

Try something like:

uasort($your_hash[$first_level][$any_second_level],
 create_function('$a,$b', 'return $a[what_level] -
$b[what_level];'));

and adjust this according to the level and what you want to sort on
accordingly...

Re: [PHP] multiple outputs to mysql_query()

 I'd do this:

 ?php

 echo 'table';

 $result = mysql_query(SELECT * from table WHERE type='default');
 $numrows = mysql_num_rows ($result);

 while ($numrows) {

 $row = mysql_fetch_row ($result);

 $row = mysql_fetch_row ($result);
 echo td$row[0]/td\n/tr;
 $numrows = ($numrows - 2);
 }

 echo '/table';

 ?

thanks so much for the help, that'll be a great reference for any other
similar types of output i need.

some things i had to fix for others viewing this thread:

while ($numrows) had to be changed to while ($numrows = 1) or the while
statement would loop forever. (server hangup)

i had to accomidate and if statement to check if the amount of $numrows left
was = 1

servers. it is something you need to have access top the server to control. ie set up 
in the php.ini file or similar


thanks

It's a good inspiration source and has helped me change the (not so optimal)

Definetely not a beginner's book though...

Also it has a chapter on hacking the PHP core contatining information you

[PHP] Re: [PHP-DB] Parsing Error

2001-07-08 Thread Tom Carter

To expand on that.. printf is short for print-formatted... its a function
inherited from c (I think) which basically allows your to format variable
for the display within the function, eg if you had $x=1.2243 then you could,
for example, use ptinf to only display it as 1.22

To cut a long story short, Larry was right in his advice.. just thought I'ld
stick my ha'penny's worth in too.. give you an idea why!

 I don't see why you are using printf there try print instead or echo ;)0

I'm assuming you want to veiw on your browser  have the browser print ?

 There's any way to do it in plain html with line breaks and page breaks??

Ain't no such critter as a page break in html, but you can let the browser
help out. 
All the versions i've worked with will avoid spliting a table across pages.
So use that fact to nudge the wanted behaviour :

TABLE WIDTH=100% CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 BORDER=0
TRTD
PRE
  crank out 60 lines ...
/PRE
/TD/TR
/TABLE

!--  next page --
TABLE WIDTH=100% CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 BORDER=0
TRTD
PRE
  60 more lines ...
/PRE
/TD/TR
/TABLE


repeat until you either run out of memory or lines ...

 There's any free tool out there??

if you're writing html to disk, there's html2ps;
i've no idea if it handles tables likewise.

RE: [PHP] open_basedir

2001-07-08 Thread Ben Bleything

Ulrich,

Pretty sure that the way to fix this will be to make sure that PHP just
can't read those files... so that the apache (or whatever server) user
that runs the PHP [module/binary] doesn't have access to read them.  

If you are concerned specifically about /etc/passwd, shadow it.  You can
find more information in the HOWTO's off of RedHat's site or at
linux.com.

This may not be correct, but I'm fairly certain.  I trust someone will
correct me if I'm wrong.

Good Luck,

Also, if you don't need to do this on the fly (or even if you do, in
certain cases) just use 'convert', a standard unix tool (fairly
standard, anyway).  So if, for instance, your users are uploading a gif,
and you need a png (so that you can tweak with it), you could write it
to a file, and then 

echo `convert upload.gif output.png`;

 Good books for advanced topics are:

 PHP Developer's Cookbook (Hughes)
 Web Application Development for PHP 4.0 (Ratschiller, Gerken)

 And for MySQL,
 Surprisingly, O'Reilly's version is weak, but Dubois' MySQL for New

 is very comprehensive. NuSphere hired Dubois as a tech writer for them a

 Also, if you don't need to do this on the fly (or even if you do, in
 certain cases) just use 'convert', a standard unix tool (fairly
 standard, anyway).  So if, for instance, your users are uploading a
gif,
 and you need a png (so that you can tweak with it), you could write it
 to a file, and then

 echo `convert upload.gif output.png`;
 your_functions_here('output.png');

 Hi,

 Which one is the best ??  I know PHP can always exec shell command using
 exec() function.  But, the apache server is set to nobody.. So I can not
 exec the root command from the web interface.  Advice is need in this
 situation.

if you want to use a web interface, you're stuck with the user that apache
runs as. (nobody in your case)

one option is to have the web application create a file, and then have a
cron job as root come by and read the file and add the user(s).

You messed up the regular expression I gave you. The parenthesis need to go
in the first paramater, not the second. Otherwise it will replace an string
instead of a single character.

I'm doing some refinements in an database-oriented app, and show database
navigation and action buttons with small icons instead of text will do a lot
for the visual - and cuts a lot in internationalization too !

If isn't ask for too much, a example of a combined icon+text button too will
be great too - some not-so-obvious actions, like data integrity check need a

Know how to make this will simplify my work a lot, not to mention the visual

 Um... I'm not sure... I've never actually used sessions myself.. :-) I just
 figured that it would be possible...

php session info can be stored a couple differet ways on your server. the
default is a file (one for each session) in /tmp. the name of the file
includes the session id.

[PHP] Storing multi-page texts

2001-07-08 Thread Chris Lott

What kind of methods have any of you used for storing text that needs to be
displayed as both multi-page (for reading) and single-page (for printing)?
My plan is to store the articles with basic HTML formatting that will render
based on the site stylesheet(s).

I'm using MySQL.

My main question is how to deal with the multiple pages. Higher-ups would
prefer that article authors not have to split the file into various fields
when composing. My idea is to have the authors insert a code/comment that
indicates a page break in the text (something like, cryptically,
PAGEBREAK) and then when pulling the article from the DB, create a menu
for selecting pages (there has to be a small menu at the bottom of each
article with a link to each article page and an indication where the user
is), display the proper page, etc. 

I've still not got my head completely around how I am going to do this, so I
am looking for suggestions on how other sites manage this need.

Have you tried this?

[PHP] magic functions

2001-07-08 Thread mike cullerton

hey folks, hope the day is treating you well.

i believe i have solved my chasing the tail problem with registering an
object as a session variable. now, i'm having trouble with my database
connection.

in the object i am registering, one of its variables is a pear db object.
the first connection to the page works, any subsequent connection gets the
following error

 Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in
 DB/mysql.php

so, i am wondering how to use __sleep and __wake. there aren't any examples
on php.net about this. it mentions something about returning an array of
variables to serialize. should i include the db object in this array?

anyone have a simple example to start from?

any help appreciated, thanks,
mike

I was curious if there was any custom tag support like jsp or cold fusion in

Thanks for your time,

If you know C, then yes.  You can write your own C libraries to be 
compiled in to PHP to give
you new 'built in' functions.  Personally, I'm not good enough with C to 
do that, and am not sure that you'd
get enough of a speed boost to justify it.  Probably in some cases you 
would, but is that the reason (speed?)
you're asking?

I wonder how many CF people will be writing custom tags still now that 
CF5 finally allows user-defined functions.;

Have you made sure that the php on the command line and the php that
apache is using are indeed the same one?  It's possible that apache is
looking at a module somewhere and that the php on the command line is
the binary you built.  

Just a thought.

get it I recieve 'Jul 7 2001 12:45AM'.

Re: [PHP] Question about how to do this...

Or even better, create a system where you can create new pages without
adding to the switch statement:

?
$page = /home/full/path/to/site/page_includes/.str_replace(.., ,
$page);
if (file_exists($page))
require($page);
?

Note that you _need_ to have the full path, else you're creating a security
issue.

 I know, this way to access a remote file works on UNIX.
 I simply can't get it to work on window. Is there a patch/trick
 out, wich enables this?
 
 I tried it on windows with IIS and APACHE. Both attempts
 have failed.
 
 I need it, because I do develop most of my pages on a Win2k
 system, later, the pages gets published on a LINUX server.

[PHP] Americart order manager

I have been hapily using americart for the last three years.  I now have the 
need to expand upon the features that Americart provides.  In particular I'm 
looking for an order manager that will take the Americart orders and enter 
them into a database for tracking the status of a customer's order.

Also I'd be intersted in any other feature enhancements that people have 
created for Americart.

[PHP] Re: poor HTML syntax crashing (!) netscape

2001-07-08 Thread Christian Calloway

I've had the same problem with Netscape, where it would crash/choke on any
platform. I never figured it out, but it has something to do with Netscape
choking on your HTML, it has nothing to do with CSS or Javascript or PHP for
that matter. I'm not an IE fan, but lets face it, Netscape sucks.

 Hi guys,

 I have an interesting situation at the moment... my (slightly sloppy) HTML
 is obviously missing a closing tag here or there but displays fine in
opera,
 ie etc however when I try and view it netscape (4.x, windows, linux, any
 platform) netscape just nice and cleanly crashes!! If anyone knows of a
bug
 which would cause netscape to do this then please let me know. The code in
 question is very dynamic (what I mean is that it can vary by quite a lot
 depending upon many many different things). Its qutie hard to debug,
 especially seeing as the page returned is browser specific.. the one thing
I
 have ruled out is that it is JavaScript.. I removed all of that and no
 change.

 Any tips will be helpful... in the meanwhile I'm going to go thru all my
 functions to attempt to work out what is doing it  *yawn*

 TIA
 Tom.

You could either use fsockopen() to post the required data, or GD to make

Click on a database in the left column, and you should see a textarea/file

Have you made sure that the php on the command line and the php that

the binary you built.

[PHP] Running PHP as a cron job....

2001-07-08 Thread James, Yz

Hi all,

This is probably going to sound incoherant, but

Do I have to do anything (other than change the permissions of a php file)
to get it to run as part of a cron job?  I created an extremely simple file
that should just send a blank email to me (using mail()).  I got an email
from the cron daemon saying, bad token, or something like that, yet when
executed through a browser, the script behaves as it should.

Do I have to write the php scripts differently to how I would if they were
to be displayed in a browser?

Neeed...Slp ;)

James.

Hi You all,

after there was no solution in the mailing-lists and the news-group, I
decided to go to the Linux-Tage in Stuttgart and not to leave the PHP

Here it is:
That guy supposed that my problem has to do with the preconfigured
apache from my SuSE-distribution and gave my to hints:
1. Try to configure PHP with the option --enable-rules=EAPI
2. fetch the apache-server from internet and install this one instead of
SuSE's.

No. 1 I tried and it works, as long as I do not include --with-informix.
So I will have to try no.2 also.

James.

 How are you executing the script?  Does it come by and run 'php 
 yourscript.php' or does the script have a shebang ('#!/usr/bin/php') 
 in it?  I've found that works well... just put that as the first line,

 and it behaves as a shell script (after you make it executable, of 
 course)

 Subject: [PHP] Running PHP as a cron job

 Hi all,

 This is probably going to sound incoherant, but

 Do I have to do anything (other than change the permissions of a php
 file)
 to get it to run as part of a cron job?  I created an extremely simple

 file that should just send a blank email to me (using mail()).  I got 
 an email
 from the cron daemon saying, bad token, or something like that, yet
 when
 executed through a browser, the script behaves as it should.

 Do I have to write the php scripts differently to how I would if they 
 were to be displayed in a browser?

 Neeed...Slp ;)

 Cheers,
 James.

RE: [PHP] Running PHP as a cron job....

2001-07-08 Thread Ben Bleything

Otay...

So, to get the shebang right, you need to know the path to the php
binary... it may not be where I said it was... You probably already
figured that out.  You will also need to set it executable.

It looks, from what you sent, that crond is interpreting the php file
(and not having much luck)

So... I'm not extremely familiar with cron, so, let me guess a little...
in your /etc/cron.hourly (or whatever) directory, you've got this
script, right?

My guess would be, if you 'chmod +x file' on this, with the shebang
(with proper path) it will work.

Let me know,
Ben

Re: [PHP] Help with custom session handler

2001-07-08 Thread Manuel Lemos

Hello Aral,

On 30-Jun-01 13:05:40, you wrote:

I'm writing a custom session handler that saves sessions using Manuel Lemos'
excellent Metabase library. The problem is, although I've got the
session_set_save_handler function pointing to the correct start, end, read,
write, destroy and garbage collection functions, when I call session_start
and session_register, the write function does not get called (the only
function that gets called is the read function.)

There is a serious bug in PHP that seems to lead to inconsistent handling
of memory allocation that affects code that uses functions like strtok from
inside session handler functions.

A new version of Metabase that does not use strtok was uploaded to the PHP
Classes site.  Everybody that uses Metabase for session handling is
encouraged to download this version because PHP trashes the memory and
eventually crashes you Web server when the strtok function is used.

Re: [PHP] Help with custom session handler

2001-07-08 Thread Sascha Schumann

 There is a serious bug in PHP that seems to lead to inconsistent handling
 of memory allocation that affects code that uses functions like strtok from
 inside session handler functions.

That is a *very* inaccurate description.

It affects only session handler functions which are called
during the request shutdown (write, close).  It does not
affect the other four handlers.

Second, it is not a general problem with memory allocations.
Strtok just assumed that it would not be called after request
shutdown.  The attached patch should fix that.

Check the path to your php cgi executable - which php - you'll probably find that
it's #!/usr/local/bin/php

This is what the no such file or directory is referring to.

Re: [PHP] Running PHP as a cron job....

2001-07-08 Thread Michael Hall


This looks like a good place for me to step in and maybe clear up
something I've been wondering about ...

With all the advice that has been offered so far, has it been assumed that
php is installed in the CGI rather than DSO manner? Can PHP as a DSO
interpret shell script-like files with a shebang at the top?

Alternatively, I've read somewhere about using lynx to run a .php cron
job. Does this apply to DSO setups? For example, would James put something
like this in his crontab:

*   *   *   *  lynx mail.php

RE: [PHP] Running PHP as a cron job....

2001-07-08 Thread Ben Bleything

Interesting method, with the lynx... I imagine that if you've only built
the DSO, then that would be the way to do it.. if it worked.  My guess
would be, you would have to do lynx
'http://localhost/path/to/script/script.php' to force it to go through
the server.

TO be totally honest with you, I'm too lazy to learn bash scripting, so
I've been using php (it's fast and easy and does everything I need!
Honest!) so when I build a new version of php, I make both... =P

ANYWAY, thanks for clarifying... I think we all had been assuming =
