RE: [PHP] alzheimers and confused

2001-11-17 Thread Robert Klinkenberg

It depends on how you exactly formulated the test

// if((!strpos($yourimage, .jpg)) or (!strpos($yourimage, .jpeg)))
 if((!strpos($yourimage, .jpg)) and (!strpos($yourimage, .jpeg)))

THe first is 
  if !jpg or !jpeg 
while the second if statement tests for
  if !jpg and !jpeg

another way to test this is 
  if !(jpg or jpeg)

basicly the first one doesn't work because when the filename is jpg it isn't
jpeg so the code executes and when it's jpeg it isn't jpg, and again the
code will execute. the two other tests will correctly test if it's either
jpg or jpeg.

OK kids, I'm not 19 ... my old brain gets tired easily and my wife is
complaining that I stay up too late PHPing :)
Putting the rest aside, why does AND work and not OR. OR was what I
meant?
I meant ... if the string doesn't contain .jpg or the string doesn't
contain .jpeg ...  ERROR!

Re: [PHP] Question on variable variables

2001-11-17 Thread Jason G.

It seems to me that the use of a temp variable may be the clearest 
solution, and I doubt any overhead would matter really.

$a = dog;
$tmp = MY.$a; //$tmp = MYdog;

So the following two would be the same:
$$tmp = Spot;
$MYdog = Spot;

Good Luck,

$a = dog
${MY$a} being the same as $MYdog

Can this be done, and if so - how? I can't get it to work.

Re: [PHP] Question on variable variables

2001-11-17 Thread Jeff Lewis

Thanks Jason and Christoper for replying, here is the solution I came up
with.  It takes into account that there could be multiple instances of what
I'm looking for on the same line - got it working late last night:

while (preg_match (/yabb\s+(\w+)/,$curline,$tags))
   $curline = preg_replace(/yabb\s+$tags[1]/,${$tags[1]},$curline);

[PHP] installing php on apache

2001-11-17 Thread Douglas McKenzie

Hi,

I'm a newbie to php having been working with coldfusion for years.

Recently decided to test it out and have configured a box with Red Hat
Linux 7.1, kde, apache and mysql. These all seem to be running fine but
I can't seem to get a php page to translate.

Im assuming that the web root is var/www/html and I've placed a file
called index.php under that with a simple php? echo ? call. However it
just displays the full file rather than translating the call. What am I
doing wrong?

All help appreciated.

TIA

Doug

[PHP] Re: installing php on apache

2001-11-17 Thread Fred

There are a number of things that could be wrong.  It is difficult to tell
without knowing any details.  I am drawn to the fact that you are just
assuming the web root.  I don't know if you installed from RPMs or source,
but if var/www/html is not set as Apache's document root when you point
Konqueror at that file it is not using Apache to render it, it is just
treating it as a text file to view.  Check Apache's httpd.conf file to see
what the document root is set to and either change it to var/www/html or
move your file to the directory that it is set to.

AND seems correct to me. If you want to generate an error when the file is
not a jpeg file then the file name must not contain jpg AND must not contain
jpeg.  If either jpg OR jpeg is present then no error should occur.  Be
careful when using the !not operator with logical condition operators, the
logic becomes more complex.

Use

Remember to use the $ in front of the variable that you toss from the HTML 
form.

are you actually doing anything with $request? that just gets a mysql result

 hi,
 Does anyone know where the Online Free PHP Books are ?
 I cannot buy a book with Amazon.com in my country.
 There're a lot of free tutorials on the net, but they 're not enough for
me
 to understand PHP clearly.
 Please let me know the URLs like that

 thanks so much...

RE: [PHP] Transfer variable to next web-page

2001-11-17 Thread Matthew Loff


Richard already answered the variable part, but I thought I'd point out
that you need to use double quotes in your HTML tags... Single quotes
are incorrect...

?
echo(P 
FORM method=\POST\ action=\join2.php\
text for button
INPUT type=\submit\ value=\Next step\
INPUT type=\hidden\ name=\htmlVariableName\
value=\$phpVariableName\
/FORM
);
?

Or...

?
echo('P 
FORM method=POST action=join2.php
text for button
INPUT type=submit value=Next step
INPUT type=hidden name=htmlVariableName value='. $phpVariableName
.'
/FORM
);
?

Or... Better yet, why not just:

P
FORM method=POST action=join2.php
text for button
INPUT type=submit value=Next step
INPUT type=hidden name=htmlVariableName
value=?=$phpVariableName?
/FORM


See the PHP manual for escaping HTML and string literals if you're
confused by any of this..

How do you transfer a variable from one web-page to another
I try to use a form like this:
?
echo(P 
FORM method='POST' action='join2.php'
text for button
INPUT type='submit' value='Next step'
INPUT type='hidden' name='htmlVariableName' value='$phpVariableName'
/FORM

?

and catch it injoin2.phpby:

$phpVariableName=htmlVariableName;

echo$phpVariableName;

This do not work.
Can anyone tel me what should be done
Neither books, php-manual nor HTML-specification does tel me.

[PHP] Re: How to get mysql-result into a php variable

2001-11-17 Thread Fred

I'm not sure where you found the function mysql_store_result, but it is not
a built-in PHP function and that is why you are getting an error.

If you just want to return Match if one or more rows in the group match the
first name use something like this:

function LookupFirstname ($FName, $Group, $Conn)
{
$SQL = SELECT .;
$Result = mysql_query($SQL,$Conn) or die (mysql_error());
if (mysql_num_rows($Result)  0)
{ $Match = Match; }
else
{$Match = NoMatch;}
return $Match;
}

You can do this using the number_format function or probably sprintf.

[PHP] Standalone PHP Application

2001-11-17 Thread John Monfort


 Hello Everyone !

 I'm looking for information on using PHP for standalone applications.
 Specifically, I need to create a PHP-based application that can be runned
 from a CD-ROM. Have any of you done this?

 Any suggestions?

 On another note:
 I need to develop a CD-ROM based Survey, where the result will be saved
 in an external file. What software, would you recommend, to use for this?
 I'm currently using Multimedia Builder, and was wondering if
 there is something better.

 I need something that allows customization(via scripting) and more
 interaction with external files/commands.
 Any help would be appreciated.

 Thanks!

[PHP] Setting up PHP and ODBC on Linux

2001-11-17 Thread mweb

Hello,

as you may remember, some day ago, I asked how to develop
on linux PHP pages accessing  Mysql via ODBC (The reasons why I *have*
to cope with this exact sub optimal set up are in the original
message, no reason to repeat them here). I have installed
all the UnixODBC rpms I could find ( I have RH 7.1); the iodbc
packages on the openlinksw were not accessible.
Now I have the following packages installed:


[root@ari mweb] rpm -qa|egrep -i 'php|odbc|sql'
php-4.0.4pl1-9
php-manual-4.0.4pl1-9
mysql-server-3.23.36-1
MyODBC-2.50.39-1
unixODBC-devel-2.0.7-1
asp2php-0.75.11-1
mysql-3.23.36-1
mysql-devel-3.23.36-1
php-mysql-4.0.4pl1-9
unixODBC-2.0.7-1
unixODBC-generic-2.0.7-1
mysqlclient9-3.23.22-4
unixODBC-mysql-2.0.7-1

However, I currently have PHP set up as pasted below (from phpinfo):
that means I have to recompile it from scratch, doesn't it? If so,
with which options? Is it enough to change --without-mysql to
--with-mysql and add --with-odbc?

Also, is it safer/worst/irrelevant/mandatory to erase the php rpm
package before building it again from source?

TIA,
mweb

[PHP] What's wrong with this date ?

2001-11-17 Thread trongduc

hi there,
I try to save a record (in the date type in MySQL) from the INPUT
type=text by :

$query = INSERT INTO $table VALUES  ($post_id, 0, '$topic', '$uname',
'$body', $date, '$newdate', 0) ;

But it couldn't work (I used $date or '$date' on above, but they got the
same results) !

It showed me the wrong value, as : 1970-0-0 (always this, although I try to
input different values in the text box with the date format is -MM-DD)
I don't understand the way MySQL saves my date field in his data (is it
-MM-DD ?)

Can anyone help me in this case ?
Thanks much...

ps : I used the $date field in varchar(20) type instead. BWT, what's
different beween the Varchar(length) type with the Char(length) type ?

Use

 $phpVariableName = $htmlVariableName;

Remember to use the $ in front of the variable that you toss from the HTML 
form.

RE: [PHP] What's wrong with this date ?

2001-11-17 Thread Andrew Forgue

Well it should be '$date',

Also.. If the column type is date and you are entering it for a form,
check to make sure you are typing it in ok and you trim() the variable

if It still doest work... do a ? print $query ? before the mysql_query()
and see exactly what its inserting...

Subject: [PHP] What's wrong with this date ?


hi there,
I try to save a record (in the date type in MySQL) from the INPUT
type=text by :

$query = INSERT INTO $table VALUES  ($post_id, 0, '$topic', '$uname',
'$body', $date, '$newdate', 0) ;

But it couldn't work (I used $date or '$date' on above, but they got the
same results) !

It showed me the wrong value, as : 1970-0-0 (always this, although I try to
input different values in the text box with the date format is -MM-DD)
I don't understand the way MySQL saves my date field in his data (is it
-MM-DD ?)

Can anyone help me in this case ?
Thanks much...

ps : I used the $date field in varchar(20) type instead. BWT, what's
different beween the Varchar(length) type with the Char(length) type ?

[PHP] Changing var value from int to string

2001-11-17 Thread phantom

Is there any inherit danger or taboos against changing the value of a
variable from an integer to a string?

example:

if ($Msg==1) $Msg = You have foobar'ed your entire server.;

Thanks.

[PHP] Re: What's wrong with this date ?

2001-11-17 Thread Fred

Do yourself a favor and read the mysql manual.  It explicitly answers your
questions and many more you are likely to have.  Furthermore, there is a
searchable manual online at mysql.com that makes it rather easy to find
answers about mysql.

To get you started, here is a link to a description of all of the column
types includeing date, varchar and char.

Good Luck
Fred

[PHP] xslt function documentation

2001-11-17 Thread Papp Gyozo

Hi,

I'd like to know if someone out there knows a good tutorial or 
some simple examples about how to use xslt functions.

The manual says the xslt ext is in experimental phase and so
the documentation lacks of even good examples or description 
of the function arguments.

I've already read Sablotron's documentation, but some help
will be appriciated, especially for xslt_transform().

have you tried /e modifier?

preg_replace(/yabb\s+$tags[1]/e,'${$1}', $curline);

it's just a tip.

 Thanks Jason and Christoper for replying, here is the solution I came up
 with.  It takes into account that there could be multiple instances of what
 I'm looking for on the same line - got it working late last night:
 
 while (preg_match (/yabb\s+(\w+)/,$curline,$tags))
$curline = preg_replace(/yabb\s+$tags[1]/,${$tags[1]},$curline);

 Subject: Re: [PHP] Question on variable variables
 
 
  It seems to me that the use of a temp variable may be the clearest
  solution, and I doubt any overhead would matter really.
 
  $a = dog;
  $tmp = MY.$a; //$tmp = MYdog;
 
  So the following two would be the same:
  $$tmp = Spot;
  $MYdog = Spot;

Re: [PHP] working HEADER in PHP

2001-11-17 Thread Papp Gyozo


 Hi,
 
 I used
 header(content-type:text/html;charset='windows-1256');
 and header(content-language:'fa');
I suggest to try Content-Type Content-Language 
with initial capitals rather than all lowercase and 
simply fa, without qoutes. 

header(Content-Type: text/html; charset=windows-1256);
header(Content-Language: fa);

 for showing my Farsi messages, in PHP, on browser
 but these could not  work.
 
 Please help me!
 Thanks.

[PHP] relative paths

Hi!

I want to know if there is a way to include(require) a file using a path
relative to web server root.

I'm aware of the fact that you can specify include path, but I believe that
this is not the best solution, since applications written that way aren't
easily portable.

What I'm looking for is something similar to what / does in HTML paths and
SSI include directives.
