Re: [PHP] The future of PHP
As a small business owner (partner, actually), I can address this question below: Manuel Lemos [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... AFAIK, it costs a lot more money to have any start and operate a e-commerce business than a telephone. What is the motivation to spend that much money? Internet hype? On our website, we use PHP/MySQL to serve up our complete schedule plus juggle event requests from different kinds of people, maintain the look of the site, and serve up audio clips. There's also a large backend component, including maintaining our contact lists (very important for a quartet), a database of all music we know and composers, in order to generate a quick program, our press kit, etc. The PHP end has over 4000 lines of code and MySQL has hundreds of tables. We aren't involved in retail, but that may change. To start up the website for my string quartet, there were a few sunk costs. The computer to develop on, the audio equipment to convert audio clips from recordings to streaming content, and then there is the monthly fee for hosting. I already owned the computer, as I use it for other things like having a computer in the house :). total extra cost: $0 I bought the audio equipment in order to enable the quartet to master our own CDs total relevant cost: $0 (in fact, we saved over what it would cost to go to a big studio) The hosting fee is $10/month. The registration fee for 2 domains (chiaraquartet.net/chiaraquartet.com) is $70/year internet access is free through the university we're in residence at. cost: $0 Total cost: $70+120=$190/year Total cost for phone line: $30/month without long distance. Total phone cost: $30*12 = $360/year There you have it. $360 is most definitely $190. Have we gotten any benefit off of the website? After a year of hosting (and not directly selling anything other than the quartet), several presenters have approached us through the website to offer concerts that paid much more than the cost of maintaining the website. We've gotten the same benefit from having a phone. So, it is definitely worth it, even for a business completely unrelated to technology or even retail sales.

[PHP] Re: File Upload and NT...
Hi, I had this problem. If you say that even without the getimagesize() it is not being uploaded. Then try this. If you declared $the_image in the input type=file name=the_image try using $the_image_name. From the manual this is what I figured out and it works (on linux) In PHP, the following variables will be defined within the destination script upon a successful upload, assuming that register_globals is turned on in php.ini. If track_vars is turned on, they will also be available in PHP within the global array $HTTP_POST_VARS. Note that the following variable names assume the use of the file upload name 'userfile', as used in the example above: * $userfile - The temporary filename in which the uploaded file was stored on the server machine. * $userfile_name - The original name or path of the file on the sender's system.

I'm not sure if it's right solution but I did this -
$ins_u = mysql_query(INSERT INTO users (name,email)
VALUES ('$u_name','$u_email'));
$userid = mysql_insert_id();
instead for this -
$ins_u = @mysql_query(INSERT INTO users (name,email)
VALUES ('$u_name','$u_email'));
$userid = @mysql_insert_id($ins_u);
And it works perfectly

Re: [PHP] global variable again?
Look in the manual:
language.variables.scope.html
'global' is meant to use inside a function for accessing vars that are not
in a function (the main part).
I use global in this form:
?
global $a;
$a=strtotime('now');
.
.
.
echo $a; but in this line dont echo $a
Using global this way does not make sense.
Or you are not telling us about functions on this page.

Is there any marketing done at various universitys? Beyond the the tech market these are new recruits to the arena. Has there ever been a poll done on where the people have picked up PHP? How many people are exposed thru conferences-educational-facilities-book stores etc?

Re: [PHP] local time v.s. server time
Hi Joe,
GMT isn't affected by daylight savings (altough in the UK we are using
British Summer Time at the moment, which is GMT +1), so that's the constant
you can work from if you're not experiencing daylight savings schemes where
you are. I have written out an example for you below.
We get the Y-m-d H:i:s format of time using gmdate() (which Mysql likes).
We convert that lot to a timestamp. The function I've created takes two
arguments: whether to add or take time from the timestamp that is generated,
and the offset in hours. So, to emulate what Mysql's now() function does,
you can do something like this
?
$now = GenerateOffset(-, 6); // takes off 6 hours.
$query = @mysql_query(INSERT INTO table (datetime) VALUES ('$now'),
$connection);
?
And you should get correct datetime formats for your timezone into your
table (providing you have put your correct offset from GMT).
?
function GenerateOffset($plusminus, $offset) {
$datetime = gmdate(Y-m-d H:i:s);
list($date, $time) = explode( , $datetime);
list($year, $month, $day) = explode(-, $date);
list($hour, $minute, $second) = explode(:, $time);
$timestamp = mktime($hour, $minute, $second, $month, $year, $day);
if ($plusminus == +) {
$newtime = $timestamp + (3600 * $offset);
} else {
$newtime = $timestamp - (3600 * $offset);
}
$newdate = date(Y-m-d H:i:s, $newtime);
return $newdate;
}
?
Hope this helps.

RE: [PHP] The future of PHP
This is an aside ... At 02:08 AM 8/25/01 -0400, Cristopher Daniluk wrote: After following this thread for a while, it seems like there is a lot of discrepancy between what is success and what isn't for PHP. I do not believe PHP will ever become the ubiquitous web language, if for no other reason than because it isn't always the right choice for your web based project. Ubiquity comes from having a hammer, and treating everything like a nail. A person uses the tool he's comfortable with, and knows its quirks and shortcuts. I do not believe, despite periodic resurgence, that there will ever be one master language. Past candidates were ... Modula, ADA, Smalltalk ... others? Remember the fifth generation computers? The competent craftsman either uses the right tool, or knows how to quickly bodge something together with what is at hand. Same for programmers, of whatever sex. PHP is already a strong option in many corporate environments. Really from what I've seen lately, the only reason it loses out to Java, ASP (uggh), or other similar options is that it is difficult to find a team of qualified PHP developers. Even if you can get the project off the ground, the continual maintenance is a problem. I believe this does a great injustice to the many fine programmers who have mastered one or more languages, but have not yet encountered PHP. Anyone who has a sound working knowledge of Java, ASP, Python or Perl, and is a competent programmer, would become productive very quickly in PHP. T'aint that difficult. Even a VB user may come to appreciate its brevity and conciseness. g As for the maintenance issue, that relates more to design and judicious use of comments. It is very easy, particularly with PHP or ASP, to produce pages with a horrible, hard-to-follow commingling of straight HTML and scripting language, so that maintenance, for anyone, is very difficult. It is also easy to end up with obfuscated code in any of the main line, structured, languages. Miles Thompson Simply put, I think this means we have great potential to have long term success, as far as penetrating the corporate market. As employers start finding the qualified people out there, and as people re-train/relearn, and as fresh meat comes out, the job market will sustain our growth. I would say we don't need the multi-billion dollar backing to be successful as well. Linux, as you particularly mentioned, is shunned by a lot of suits, but it has grown - and that growth has sustained itself over the last 10 years, more relevantly the last 4-5. It's starting to get a little more attractive to suits as bigger and bigger and bigger companies sponsor or use it. I envision PHP going down this road as well, though I obviously don't expect the same grandeur that Linux has received. We will achieve this by doing exactly what Rasmus said - developing a good product. Though I must digress on the subject of technical conferences. While they're valuable and by all means we should be there, I believe the true value will come when people do our work for us - we need to prove to the world that it is cool to use PHP, and they'll make sure all their friends are cool too :) Regards, Cristopher Daniluk President CEO email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] direct: 330/530-2373 Digital Services Network, Inc Unleashing Your Potential voice: 800/845-4822 web: http://www.dsnet.net/ -Original Message- From: Rasmus Lerdorf [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, August 25, 2001 1:52 AM To: Manuel Lemos Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP] The future of PHP So, it is very hard to convince the anybody to bet all the farm in PHP.

PHP is represented at every important technical conference right alongside Perl and Python. When you hear someone talk about scripting languages, they will usually say Perl, Python and PHP. I don't see any problem with the current state of PHP marketing in the technical community. PHP is not marketed the way Java and .NET is. There are no multi-billion dollar corporations behind PHP and asking us, and apparently me personally, to make that happen is unrealistic. Like Linux 5 years ago, PHP is adopted by the techies and somewhat shunned by the suits because they haven't read about it in their latest advertisement-sponsored magazine. We can't possibly hope to compete with Sun and Microsoft when it comes to suit-oriented marketing drivel. What we can do is concentrate on what we do best. Writing a solid and very focused tool.

RE: [PHP] local time v.s. server time
Thanx James for your answers... perhaps I'm missing a piece of the puzzle,
but here is how I corrected or fixed it.
In my included file that gets included in every app and every page, I
placed:
putenv( TZ=America/Phoenix );
and all my dates are now local time. SO saving to a mySQL database now I
merely pass in:
$now = date( Y-m-d H:i:s );
$result = mysql_query( INSERT INTO table ( datetime ) values( '$now' ),
$dbConn );
If I ever distribute this app (doubtful) I'll include a fairly extensive
listing of timezones so the putenv() could be appropriately changed... the
list I found and would most likely include is here:

[PHP] Re: source of global variable
I'm not sure of the problem but something like
?
if ($condition) { echo $time}
else { //do something else}
?
You can also print or echo html from php if that helps your program flow
like
?
echo Table
TRTHtitle/TH/TR
TRTD$data/TD/TR
/Table;
?
Often you will want to generate the table rows in an if() or while()
statement
You can do the same thing with any html tags , javascript, etc.
Web pages are not static so pass parameters you need through url
A php trick is that a href=$PHP_SELF?params calls itself with the
parameters
you give it. This works on form action= statements too

Look at all the large corporations bleeding money and cutting staff. Mega-corporations are in decline, and their era is ending. Long live the small business! What? Large business are being affected because the whole networking business is in recession. Large corporations don't know you or care about you as an individual customer. You're just an account number to them. The only thing they care about is the big sale to other big corporations. But even then, do they really care? Not in my experience. The networking recession is just one symptom of their disease. Do you really believe that? As far as I can recall, this recession started when a mean judge convicted Microsoft for anti-trust practices. That caused NASDAQ crash that scared people away from investing in tech company stocks. Many Internet companies dried and without cash from the investors many went bankrupt. That affected all the small or big corporations that have grown and were dependent on the networking market. I don't think this affected much non-technological companies, big or small. So I don't think your anti-big corporations speech has much to do with this.

Re: [PHP] konquerer and php
I should probably just forget I ever sent this post, but in case anyone is curious, the problem was that I was using the address cached in the address bar in Konqueror to open the home page of the application.

Re: [PHP] The future of PHP
Hello Rasmus, Rasmus Lerdorf wrote: So, it is very hard to convince the anybody to bet all the farm in PHP. You may have the technical arguments, but is not enough, I'm afraid. You in particular, may not need to convince others to bet on PHP, but it is nothing like that for most people that want to live from software development. They have to put up with work/business opportunities that the market offers to live from it. So, today, I'm afraid that you already still have an hard time to convince people to dedicate only to PHP, even those that know and believe PHP is that great. PHP is represented at every important technical conference right alongside Perl and Python. When you hear someone talk about scripting languages, they will usually say Perl, Python and PHP. I don't see any problem with the current state of PHP marketing in the technical community. I think that is not the largest part of the PHP community. Let me explain: I believe the largest part of the community is made of those that develop Web sites and applications for some one else and do it for a living. Many of those don't always manage to make the technological decisions, their bosses do. There you have two problems: convince those bosses that PHP is still a superior technical solution to solve their development needs as they evolve, and then convince them that other languages/technologies that have been also evolving are not yet as good as PHP, despite they have been flooded of news from everywhere that they are much more advanced and better for the developer needs. The first problem is technical. You just keep developing PHP to satisfy the user needs as soon as you perceive them and that's it. The second problem is marketing. It doesn't matter for people that have to make the decisions how much better PHP in fact is if people don't hear about it. Even if they hear about it, it may not be enough if they hear much more from the rest (Java, ASP.Net, C#, , whatever). Here PHP looses bigtime. You may not want to believe me, but I am afraid that unless PHP is better marketted, soon or later its market acceptance will be weakened. PHP is not marketed the way Java and .NET is. There are no multi-billion dollar corporations behind PHP and asking us, and apparently me That's not my point. Some marketing is better than no marketing at all which is what you do today. There are plenty of ways to do some marketing on PHP that don't even cost money to you. personally, to make that happen is unrealistic. Like Linux 5 years ago, PHP is adopted by the techies and somewhat shunned by the suits because they haven't read about it in their latest advertisement-sponsored magazine. oh, man Linux was a different story. Expecting a similar future for PHP I'm afraid it may be wishful thinking. PHP is mostly focused on Web development. Web market is fading out. Even if you can do non Web programming with PHP, most people are not aware of that. You need to do some marketing to put in evidence that PHP is as much capable for non-Web programming. There you have another big problem that is there is no affordable way to compile and generate executables from PHP programs. I know that historically you never liked this ability into PHP programs, but that is a vital need for people that will want to distribute their programs like VB or Delphi programs. We can't possibly hope to compete with Sun and Microsoft when it comes to suit-oriented marketing drivel. What we can do is concentrate on what we do best. Writing a solid and very focused tool. Building the grassroot community and being visible at all relevant technical conferences. If we continue to do this, I see no reason for any dropoff in PHP popularity which leads directly to more and more corporate acceptance. You believe in whatever you want, off course, but I think it is time to adjust course. Assumming that the future of PHP is just a technical matter, I'm affraid you are neglecting an important part of the equation: the people. The needs and beliefs change through time. I am try to show my current view of what people feel and need today that I don't see addressed. You can see that and work on the changes if you agree. I have more ideias if you care to work on that direction.

Re: [PHP] Re: The secrecy of PHP code
If your php-code is on a web-server which gives access to other than you they can read your code. An example could be other people being hosted on the same server.. Not necessarily. You can enable safe_mode and/or set an open_basedir in order to prevent those people from doing that.

Try this: $text = nl2br(htmlspecialchars(stripslashes($text))); With $text being the data outputted. It will replace apostrophes, quotes, etc. with their proper html formatting. Example: input: PHP is Cool! html output: quot;PHP is Cool!quot; Then if you don't want the $quot;, or whatever is outputted depending on the input, you can write a script to strip them out if you like.

This is what I run: http://www.mydomain.com/try.phtml/param1/123 It seems like PHP is trying to read the file 123 at the given path. For some reason, PHP doesn't realize the try.phtml is the script. I am trying this with PHP3. However, my production server is running PHP4 and it works there. Is this a new feature in PHP4 or do I need to build PHP3 with some configuration for this to work?

RE: [PHP] Error while passing parameters as path
yes, I am running as CGI. How should that matter? Actually, I need to run as CGI because I have customized extensiont to PHP that my hosting company will not imbed in their PHP-Apache module. I am totally fine with that. Bottom line is that I need to run PHP as CGI. Is there a way for this work in that mode? -Original Message- From: Rasmus Lerdorf [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, August 26, 2001 2:14 AM To: Anas Mughal Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP] Error while passing parameters as path Are you running PHP 3 as a CGI? Things work/don't work a bit differently in CGI mode. -Rasmus On Sun, 26 Aug 2001, Anas Mughal wrote: All, I read the article by John Coggeshall on building search engine friendly pages.
