[PHP] Variable Prob
Argh!
I hate it when one little annoying thing starts up right when I think I have
the coding finished! I have the following code:
if($last_name) {
printf(%s
%s'sbrb%s/bbr%s\n/td,$first_name,$last_name,$year,$color);
} else {
printf(%s'sbrb%s/bbr%s\n/td,$first_name,$year,$color);
}
So if the person has a last name in the database, print John Doe's 1990
Red and if they don't, print John's 1990 Red.
This is in a while() statement, and it works except that on one particular
query, the last record that comes up has a NULL value for the last name, but
rather than printing $first_name's it prints $first_name $last_name using
the last name of the previous record!
Am I missing something there? Do I need to clear out a variable somewhere?
It seems like since $last_name isn't even called in the else statement, it
shouldn't even be showing up!

Re: [PHP] Variable Prob
It would seem the only way this could happen is if $last_name evaluates to
true. Two suggestions:
1) Make some extra change in one of the printf statements so you can see
which one is really being called.
2) If that doesn't illuminate anything, show a little more code.

RE: [PHP] Variable Prob
Thanks for the debugging tip... Seems that the 'else' statement wasn't being
called at all, so for some reason $last_name was evaluating to true even
though there's a NULL entry for that record/field. I used a different query,
where a person with a NULL last_name showed up first, and the 'else'
statement still wasn't being called but there was no $last_name showing.
Anyway, I added ORDER BY last_name to my mysql_query() statement and for
some reason the 'else' statements started working. Any ideas on why that
would be? I'm glad it works now, but I'm a little confused as to why it
works.
Thanks again.

First off, anyone using phpnuke is on their own, try phpnuke.org for
help. But an @ before a function suppresses error messages, it doesn't
make errors go away, so it's doing precisely what it is supposed to. I
also see two ;'s in a row, perhaps that is the problem, or perhaps the
query was bad and that renders fetch_row useless.
We or anyone would have a far better chance of helping out if you
explained what the error is... it will be alot easier than debunking the
code of phpnuke on our own.

[PHP] XML: Similiar Multiple Tags With Different Data
Hello
I have recently been trying to parse an XML document that has different
content in the same tags. Here is an example:
LIST_ITEM1/LIST_ITEM
LIST_ITEM2/LIST_ITEM
LIST_ITEM3/LIST_ITEM
...
I am trying to get the content from LIST_ITEM into an array. I want the
content of the first LIST_ITEM to go into $p-ART_ID[0] and the next to go
into $p-ART_ID[1] and so on. Here is what my Element Content Function looks
like:
-
function elementContent($parser, $data, $attrs='') {
global $tag, $data, $test;
global $p;
$ti = sizeof( $tag ) - 1;
if ( $tag[$ti] == 'LIST_ITEM' ) {
$p-ART_ID[] .= $data;
}
}
When I type in echo $p-ART_ID[0] I should get 1 however I get 1 2 3. For
some reason all the content goes only into one section of the array. Does
anyone know how I can fix this?
Thanks.

many thanks...
Not knowing exactly what it is you want I'm assuming the following: if there
is a lastname use that in the sort, otherwise use the firstname. Thus your
sorted list will look something like:
Bryan Adams (Adams, Bryan)
Arnold
Brian
John Butcher (Butcher, John)
If that is what you want then:
while (names) {
explode the name
if there is more than one element swap it, then join
add this processed name onto a new array
}
use one of the array sort functions to sort the new array.

[PHP] Problem with new variable system in 4.2
Hi there,
I did upgrade to 4.2 and now I am recoding :-( my whole application.
So I did get behind the basic idea, but there is one case, where I just dont
know how to solve it:
Im a doing something similar like on php.net when you type in
php.net/functionname. In my .htaccess file I do redirect in case of a 404 to
a php page where I do redirect to a page called /profiles/8001.html
In the file profiles (which is a php file not a dir) I do grab the
8001.html and extract the 8001 to explode it into parameters. Then I
do grab the functionname (or in my case user name) to redirect him to the
propper site.
In php4.1.1 it worked fine. Now I changed the first function to:
$PATH_INFO = $_SERVER[REQUEST_URI]; (was $PATH_INFO in 4.1.1)
The username was fetched in 4.1.1 with ( I know I have to change this as
well):
$parameter = explode('/', $REQUEST_URI);
$user_name = $parameter[1];
So now I do get as $PATH_INFO the username which is mixing up my whole idea!
How can I get both parameters like in good old former times :-)
Do u see my trouble?
I appreciate every help on that,
Thanx, Andy

[PHP] Re: Problem with new variable system in 4.2
basicly this problem seems to result of the new way I do get the string from
the url
I used to get it with $PATH_INFO
Now I do a $PATH_INFO = $_SERVER[REQUEST_URI];
which is not the same result.
Does anybody know a equal command for $PHP_INFO ?

In php4.1.1 it worked fine. Now I changed the first function to:
$PATH_INFO = $_SERVER[REQUEST_URI]; (was $PATH_INFO in 4.1.1)
$PATH_INFO worked fine because register_globals was on
which essentially created $PHP_INFO from $_SERVER['PHP_INFO']
so how about you do this:
if (!ini_get('register_globals')) {
extract($HTTP_SERVER_VARS);
}
So if register_globals = off, $PHP_INFO will exist as will
all web server predefined variables, like $DOCUMENT_ROOT.
If you are unsure what predefined variable to use, make
a call to phpinfo() and it'll show you exactly what is
available to the script. And print_r() will also be helpful
for various activities too.

RE: [PHP] Is This Possible? (Database - PHP)
Yes, it's certainly possible. You will have to talk your host into giving you remote access though, which could be hard. How permissions work in MySQL is that your username is given permission to connect from a specific host. Generally, the host is listed as 'localhost' meaning the script has to be on the same server as MySQL. You can also have '%' as your host, meaning you can connect from anywhere. Or, when your ISP assigns you an IP, the first 2 or 3 octets are generally the same. So you could put something like '123.123.%' or '123.123.123.%' in your host. You hosting provider, if they're any good, will know all about this. It's hard to talk people into giving you access, though, because they are generally pretty paranoid. ---John Holmes... -Original Message- From: r [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, May 13, 2002 12:05 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] Is This Possible?

RE: [PHP] help with sort problem
I actually asked this same type of question not too long ago. Just separate the name field into first_name and last_name - it'll be better in the long run. It's not as hard as it sounds - dump your table, use some program that will read comma delimited stuff and export as tab-delimited (I used Excel), separate the first and last names, modify your table to have the correct columns, clear it, add the data back in (LOAD DATA...) It may require some modification of your scripts you already have, but really it's just much cleaner this way. I didn't want to do it simply because I was lazy and using PHP to do this for me seemed to be the easier choice. It's not, and doing it that way is far from efficient.

Hey, Why dont you just add a link to a script and validate it like that? eg: Click below to confirm you email id ** http://yoursite.tld/confirm.php?[EMAIL PROTECTED]confirmno=5675678 ** Once you get the confirm id and no just check it within your database and flag it as true. Simple. I have been using the above example for yearsthough not in PHP, but i'm sure it will work.

If that is what you want then:

use one of the array sort functions to sort the new array.
Yep, cheers Jason, here's what I came up with

Re: [PHP] Re: Debugger

RE: [PHP] Search Engine With Boolean Support --Please help
Well, a search engine is not a trivial proposition. If you just have a few hundred records without huge amounts of text, you can build SQL queries and it's no big deal. But if you expect it to scale, you need to turn the problem upside down and index the words. This means you build a table of words and a table that cross-references the word table to your text by saying which word appears at which position in which item. Every time you insert text, you update these other two tables accordingly. Then you can easily query against them to find any combination of words without waiting for it to crawl through all the text in your database. I don't know whether there's available PHP code, but it's a well-understood problem that has been solved countless times before, so you should be able to find a book that breaks it down into pseudocode you can rewrite as PHP. Or maybe you'll find something pre-made. How useful that will be depends on how peculiar your requirements are. miguel On Sat, 11 May 2002, SpamSucks86 wrote: I don't want to use a module though.

Re: [PHP] protecting downloads with php
It can be tricky to write download wrappers that work with all browsers. Some versions of Internet Explorer seem especially troublesome. I've found wrappers like these seem to work fairly well: initialization(); authorization($user,$pw); $info=get_file_info($filepointer); ### SEND HEADERS ### header(Content-Type: .$info[mimetype]); header(Content-Disposition: inline; filename=.$info[filename]); ### NO TEXT CAN BE ECHOED BEFORE HERE ### ### Open the file and display it $fp=fopen($filepath./.$info[filename],r); fpassthru($fp); fclose($fp); ### END A few observations: PHP will complain if you send any text to the browser before calling header() (since HTTP headers can't be sent once the data segment begins). Sometimes this problem can be hard to track down. I've left invisible whitespace after the closing ? tag in a file included above the calls to the header function(). The PHP parser naturally views this whitespace as HTML content and echoes it to the browser. The filename portion of the second header usually points to the name of the file itself without any leading path component. Some versions of Internet Explorer fail to initiate the download unless a separate window is opened. Most modern *nix systems have a mime.types file. A quick scan of one RedHat Linux 7.1 machine finds the Apache mime.types file stored as /etc/mime.types along with some sample mime.types files installed by applications like lynx and mutt. The file is delimited by white space (usually a tab) between the type and list of extensions making it easy to write a function that converts it into an array $mimetype[$extension]. If you collect inbound files by mail (as I do) or by HTTP upload, you'll find the file's MIME type in the session headers. Since most people's mail or web client runs on the same machine as their application, these headers are usually pretty accurate.

[PHP] sessions
I am a little confused on how to keep a variable registered on more than one
page. For example you log into a page which queries the database. Form
code is as follows...
?php
session_start();
?
html
body bgcolor=#FF text=#00
?php print(session_id()); ?
form name=login method=post action=auth_done.php
User Name:
input type=text name=u_name maxlength=25
Password:
input type=password name=p_word maxlength=25
input type=submit name=login value=login
/form
/body
/html
The auth_done.php then checks to see if the user entered anything for the
username and password and if it doesnt it will re-direct them to the login
page. If the un and pw has been entered it will then query the database for
a valid entry, code is as follows...
?php
if ((!$u_name) || (!$p_word)){
header(Location: index.php);
exit;
}
$db_name = authentication;
$table_name = accounts;
$connection = mysql_connect(localhost,,) or die(Could not connect to
Database, please try again later);
$db = mysql_select_db($db_name, $connection) or die(Could not select
Database, please try again later);
$sql = SELECT * from $table_name
WHERE u_name = \$u_name\ AND p_wordd = password(\$p_word\);
$result = mysql_query($sql,$connection) or die(Couldn't execute query);
$num = mysql_numrows($result);
if ($num !=0) {
$msg = p class=\content\You have been authorized to make changes to the
web site./p;
session_is_registered('u_name');
session_is_registered('p_word');
session_start();
} else {

exit;
}
?

?php print (session_id()); ?br
?php echo $u_name; ?br
?php echo $p_word; ?br
?php print (session_is_registered('u_name')); ?br
?php print (session_is_registered('p_word')); ?br
a href=edit.phpedit pages/a

/html
The problem I am having is if the user clicks the link for edit.php the
session variables u_name and p_word are not being passed and I can't do
any other checking with out that. Please help, good tutorials on this are

RE: [PHP] How can obtain referer's name?
if you have the globals setting in your ini file set to on
then you can use: $HTTP_REFERER otherwise, I think, it's found
in $_SERVER[HTTP_REFERER] - just check for something like
that in phpinfo();
Just to be picky, predefined reserved server variables will
always exist in both $HTTP_SERVER_VARS and $_SERVER. So,
everyone could go through one of these predefined variables
regardless of the register_globals value.
Of course HTTP_REFERER may or may not exist. And $_SERVER
became available in PHP 4.1.0. $HTTP_SERVER_VARS has been
around since the 90's :)
A related faqt on HTTP_REFERER in PHP can be seen here:
Why does $HTTP_REFERER return an empty string?
http://www.faqts.com/knowledge_base/view.phtml/aid/31
So regarding the question, do something like so
in script.php
print $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'];
print $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['HTTP_REFERER'];
Personally I love registering server vars in the
scope and many times will do this (on top of the
script):
if (!ini_get('register_globals')) {
extract($HTTP_SERVER_VARS);
}
In this case, it's safe to use $HTTP_REFERER even if
register_globals = off as it will then be created.

You can achieve the same effect (having the same function do

$param1 is required, $param2 is optional - if its not

[PHP] inserting data to mutliple mysql tables
Hi,
I have a table that's full of references to indexs in other tables if I want
to insert a new record do I have to make a script to insert into all the
tables ie:
insert script for table 1
insert script for table 2
insert script for table 3
insert script for table 4
or can I have it all in one insert statement like you can with the SELECT
statement ie
INSERT INTO table1, table2, table3, table4 (blah, blah1, blah2, blah3,
blah4, blah5) VALUES('$blah', '$blah1', '$blah2', '$blah3', '$blah4',
'$blah5');
and if i can do it that way how do i get the table referencing the indexes
to show the reference number rather than the actual inputted data ie: say
table1 is the reference table and table 2 is the table that matches up the
username with the real name where i want the actual full information to be
stored.
eg table 1
id userid
1 10
table 2
id username nameid
10 boo 15
table 3
id name extra fields in here
15 bob Smith
now when i add a new record I want table one to be have the new userid added
to it table 2 to have the full user name matched to their nameid inserted
and table 3 to get the full name of the person...
any ideas?
Cheers

RE: [PHP] inserting data to mutliple mysql tables
Isn't this more of a database question than a PHP question?

Re: [PHP] inserting data to mutliple mysql tables
This is a MySQL question, not a PHP question.
Anyway, with MySQL you can't do this as a single operation. Do your
inserts one after the other. You can use mysql_insert_id() after each one
to get the value of an auto_increment field that was created, and feed
that into your next SQL statement.

You have to do separate inserts...you can't JOIN inserts like that...
