RE: [PHP] Mass Mail {?!}
I'd recommend this script with a few changes.
?
$Emails = array(Get your list of emails into the array somehow);
for($i=0; $icount($Emails); $i++) {
// send email code
usleep(delay in microseconds);

How about something like this.
?
$Total_emails = 100;
$i = 1;
if($Total_emails != $i){
// send email code
$i++;
}
?
This should be all you need. I used something similar to crash my
work's
email system by accident. :) Whoops.

[PHP] PHP + Microsoft Access
Hello I have to interface an MSAccess database and Apache server on a linux box thru PHP. The only way I found to do that is to use ODBC with some specific drivers (I tried Openlink). This solution needs sort of server running on a Windows station, it serves requests to the Access database file. The problem is that I would like to do this WITHOUT any Windows station, to achieve good reliability (we can't have a Windows station running just for that). Also the database can't be ported to any other format because there are some programs written in VB-Access that need it as is. So what I need is sort of sql driver for accessing mdb files on a unix/linux box. Does-it exist? I searched a lot on the web but with no succes. Any suggestions are welcome Thanx in advance Some details: - The Access database file (mdb) is located on a Unix box in a shared folder Tom -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I am trying to validate my input with ereg but I get the error Warning:

Works

Doesn't Work
if(eregi('^[A-Za-z]{1,256}$', test sentence))
echo valid input;
First off, you're using eregi (case insensitive), but defining a-zA-Z (a
through z, case insensitive) in your characters class. You could just use
ereg and leave the character class as it is, or drop the A-Z from the eregi
version.
Secondly, I'd amend your code to:
^[a-z]+$
And thirdly, I'd just use a combination of ereg / preg_* functions and
strlen.
if(preg_match(/^[a-z]+$/i, $string) strlen($string) 255)
{
echo Whatever.;
}
I'm not sure why you're getting that error, but then again, I haven't
bothered reading up about it :)

2) Just to really confirm that the upload process is not the problem can you
try sending a local existing file using your scripts?
3) In your scripts I can't see where the attachments (ie the files) gets
encoded to base64. Have I missed something?

If your DB falls over, get a better one. You wouldn't do this with
Access, but MySQL or PostgreSQL will handle this with no problems.
I've tried it in MySQL - it didn't work - after inserting aprox 8Mbs of
data the MySQL server died with a 'server has gone away' message. And more
than 2-3 users symltaneously requesting files of only a few hundred kb
really seemed to kill performance.
And storing them in the file system requires the web server process to
have write access to the directory in which the files are stored. And
so will any other users on that server. Security nightmare.
Having other users on your server is the security mightmare :) If you setup
the webserver to have its own user ('apache' instead of 'nobody') and only
allow the apache user access to those files, that should lessen the problem.
One thing - note that that the header names and the actual mimetype are in
lower case. Got weird results with anything different.

day to solve a complex problem (which will be revealed on the day
of the competition). Teams cannot get help from outside, so no outward
network / phone communication is available, but you can use anything you
take there with you (any development tools, books, pre-written software
etc.)
The language in which you write the software is up to you, the most
popular choices being C++ and Java - but this year our team are going
to use PHP (and PHP-GTK).
The big question is: will PHP be enough for the whole project, or will
we need something else (like external C/Java modules)?
Last year the task was to write an artificially intelligent soccer game
based on a client-server architecture: there was a server acting like
some kind of game controller (referee) and 2D display screen, while
the automated clients (players) were playing individually according
to the game's rules and some simulated information on what they 'see'
at the time.
It's said that it will be something quite different this year -
but required knowledge includes:
algorithm theory, information and code theory, artificial intelligence,

[PHP] Daemon starting

Problem: It would SEGFPE every so many request (sometimes just 2 sometimes 100`s) Tried to chase in the php code where this bug was and not trying mod_ssl (encryption must use the FPU alot etc.). Eventually compiled php with -ggdb (debug symbols) setup my FreeBSD to core dump in the same area and played. After backtracing several coredump I found the this happened when the php added or subtracted 2 large numbers together. After a bit more debug the FPU was broken on the CPU and it now runs with FPU emulation and is ok. Interesting that that was the only thing that tickled the FPU. So compile php in debug mode is my advice. -- Simon -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] date format
Hamish,
A quick read through the date functions in the manual is worthwhile
http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.datetime.php
In particular, you need to look at strtotime() and date().
strtotime() is an often overlooked function, useful for getting almost any
english written date into a unix timestamp, then use date() to get it into
the format you wish.
Note, I removed the commas from the $date string, because I'm pretty sure it
will break the strtotime() function.
?
$date = April 11, 2002, 1:53 pm;
// one step at a time
$date = str_replace(,,,$date);
$date = strtotime($date);
$date = date('Y-m-d', $date);
// or, in one line, if that's your thing
$date = date('Y-m-d', strtotime(str_replace(,,,$date)));
?
Alternatively, you could have split the date on commas, and mucked around
with each element, but the above, IMHO, is the best way to go.

The $vars still work though throughout all scripts. $_SESSION and $_POST and other superglobals are already on all the time if you use PHP 4.1.x or later. Verify that globals are off by writing a script that checks the for the presence or the value of $variable and then pass variable=1 or something on the querystring in your browser.

Thanks for your feedback.
Note: The ItemNumber is the Primary key for the Item table and the Foreign

P.S.: If it were a PHP/MSSQL error, shouldn't the browser spit out an error

I assume both the Item and Inventory tables have an index on ItemNumber?

When a beginner posts a question on the forum, it only takes a couple of seconds to read the question. On the other hand if you choose to respond to every under researched question with useless information such as RTFM that takes more of your time.

[PHP] adding numbers to a file
I have a simple count file named count_db that contains ONLY the following:
{
'total' = 3954
}
How do I open file, find numbers in the file, add $newnumbers to existing
numbers. Then write these new numbers over the original numbers and close
the file. I'm just needing to do this once a day to correct a poor count.
Thanks

if()
{$filename = ../includes/news.html;
This condition will always return true.
What you are doing here is first executing the assignment:
$filename = ../includes/news.html;
and then testing the outcome of that assignment (which is
../includes/news.html).
If you want to test whether or not $filename contains
../includes/news.html, then you should use == instead of =

[PHP] ImageCreate v. ImageCreateTrueColor
Hello, I'm making an Image and I was wondering what the difference is between these two Image constructors. I need to find a way to make dotted and dashed lines (according to different patterns I've been given) and I want the sections between the dots to be transparent. I'm planning on using the ImageSetStyle function. From what I read on PHP.net, some things cannot be used with ImageCreateTrueColor, but it looks like some can only be used that one. One thing I'm interested in is the constant IMG_COLOR_TRANSPARENT - can this be used with ImageCreate? Is there a reason I should use one of the constructors over the other?

[PHP] Re: mod_rewrite
You could also do something like this: Configure Apache so that *every* request on a virtual host would be handled by a single PHP script.

Note that this means that gifs/jpgs also get run through this... On Wed, 17 Apr 2002, [ rswfire ] wrote: I could really use your help with this. The examples I have received from everyone thus far have not worked, including the last one that you posted. This is the situation: I have multiple domains, each with multiple subdomains, all of which automatically point to the root of my web environment. I have only one file that does all of the work for all of these websites/webpages, and that is the index.php file in the root. This file is smart enough to parse the url being accessed and create an appropriate page based on a very complex set of rules. Originally, I was using the ErrorDocument 404 to make it access the index.php file, but this has some inherent flaws. The biggest problem was that forms that were being posted to a page that doesn't really exist never maintained the posted variables (due to the 404 redirect.) Another limitation was that it just created a bunch of unnecessary error messages in my error log since there are no real pages on my network, even though it pretends there is. So, I need to use mod_rewrite. That is apparent now. The problem is I know nothing about creating regular expressions. I simply need it to rewrite the url for any file that does not exist (it should not try to do so for a file that really does exist, say an image file) and it needs to have the following rule: A*.B*.C*/D*.E* Where A is a subdomain; B is the domain name; C is the top level domain; D/E are a file or directory.

AW: [PHP] Second opinion needed - javascript blocker
Maybe u should just strip all the javascript tags out
Of the user-input (output page) with a script like this:
$text = eregi_replace( *script[^]*([^]*)[^]*,//1,$test);
this should stip all the script-tags out of the text, but
will keep the text between the tags.
