[PHP] date() and mktime() functions: weeknumbers and months.

2003-03-31 Thread Davy Obdam
Hi people,

I would like to select news from my database bases on week/year and
month/year.
How can i do this.. I would like to pass two arguments in the query
string, like news.php?week=14year=2003 or news.php?month=3year=2003.
Can anybody help me.. Thanks in advance. I have been looking at the
date() and mktime() functions, but is there anyway to determine the date
from a weeknumber? I have been using this:

$yr=2003; 
$mnth=03; 
$dy=31; 
echo base date: .$yr.-.$mnth.-.$dy.br /; 
echo last sunday: .date(Y-m-d,
mktime(0,0,0,$mnth,$dy-date(w,mktime(0,0,0,$mnth,$dy,$yr)),$yr)).br
/; 
echo next saturday: .date(Y-m-d,
mktime(0,0,0,$mnth,$dy+6-date(w,mktime(0,0,0,$mnth,$dy,$yr)),$yr)).b
r /;

$sql = SELECT * FROM news WHERE date='$last_sunday' AND
date='$next_saturday').

But i would find it better to use a weeknumber instead

2003-03-31 Thread Marek Kilimajer
Check out mysql manual, section 6.3.4 - Date and Time Functions, example

$condition='';
if($GET['week']) $condition .= WEEK(date)='$_GET[week]' AND ;
if($GET['year']) $condition .= YEAR(date)='$_GET[week]' AND ;
and so on
then use the condition:
$sql = SELECT * FROM news WHERE $condition 1;

[PHP] Dynamic include_path

2003-03-31 Thread Derek J. Belrose
Hey folks,

What we are looking to do is give a specific include path for each site in our 
customer base.  This running on MacOSX so basically we have sites set up like:

/Users/username/Sites/site.com/phpinc

There can be numerous sites in each users directory and numerous users in /Users.

Basically what we want to do is have each set up to be able to include only from their 
include directory, but the boss is wondering if it can be done on one or two lines for 
every site total.

Basically looking for something like this:
Directory /Users/*/Sites/*/phpinc
php-value include_path = . 
/Directory

or something like it.  

Is this possible?  Or should we just go ahead and set it in each sites declaration?

[PHP] exec different result from command line

2003-03-31 Thread Jan-Hendrik
Hi folks !

I've got a strage problem I don't know how to solve:

I am calling ImageMagick's identify. If I do that via command line, I get a
textline as result with all images. If I do the same with exec or passthru,
I only get results with certain image-types.

Does anyone have any idea of what the problem could be ?

[PHP] [Newbie] Password()

2003-03-31 Thread Bobby Rahman


Hi,

in my code I am trying to send an email (containing a password) to a user 
when he has forgotten his password.

The problem is that security leads to needing to encrypt passwords in the 
database. Im using the password function within mysql. Is there any way of 
reversing the password function() to get the original password to send out 
to the user?

Or are there any other suggestions in PHP to reverse encryption of 
passwords. I do understand the principles of encryption and can see the 
point of unreversible functions but Im sure that not all applications re-set 
passwords with random generated ones but do send out forgotten passwords.

Cheers

$pwtestOK=FALSE

It's a bit tricky to make it really secure. If your site is vulnerable to 
serious cracker attacks, better find some indepth articles.
What i've seen CMS systems do is take a password from a form and put it as 
MD5($password) in the database. MD5 is irreversible but when you let people 
login you simply compare it like this:

if (MD5(enteredpassword)==  password_in_database)
$pwtestOK=TRUE;
if (!$pwtestOK) {echo 'wrong password'; exit;}

I think it's a one-way hash, like MD5. You could set their password to
something else - a random 8-letter string, for example - and send them that
along with a note encouraging them to change it.

If you want two-way encryption, have a look at AES_ENCRYPT and AES_DECRYPT:

RE: [PHP] Microsoft SQL Server varchar(500) field text concatenated at 255 characters.

2003-03-31 Thread Adam Voigt
Yeah, umm, Microsoft SQL Server (mssql) is different
then MySQL Server (mysql), I believe the correct answer,
is if your selecing a VARCHAR longer then 255 is to cast it,
example:

SELECT CAST(somefield AS TEXT) AS somefield FROM table;

That will work.

  Hi There.
  
  I am using PHP 4.3.0 on WIN32 to query data from a Microsoft 
  SQL Server.
  One field I am requesting is type VARCHAR size 500. For some 
  reason, PHP
  is returning only the first 255 characters of the text from 
  that field.
  
  If I change the field type to TEXT, all of the data in that 
  field is returned.
  
  Unfortunately, an ASP application is also using that 
  database, and when I change
  the field type to TEXT, it pukes completely.
  I would rather try to resolve the issue in PHP than waste my 
  time looking at ASP code.
  
  Has anyone got an idea why this might be hapenning?
  
  Many thanks.

Re: [PHP] Classes

2003-03-31 Thread Marek Kilimajer
including or requiring a file does not change the working directory, so 
if you have this structure:

index.php
A/ClassA.class.php
B/ClassB.class.php
and index.php includes A/ClassA.class.php, from ClassA.class.php you 
need to use
include('B/ClassB.class.php');

Donahue Ben wrote:

I have a ClassA file and a ClassB file stored in

So I tried including the ClassA file in ClassB
constructor:
function ClassB()
{
 include(../A/ClassA.class.php);
 ...
}
i cant get this working. How do i solve this problem
without having both class files in the same directory.

If you're using mysql you can do something like:

  SELECT * FROM news WHERE WEEK(date) = some_week_number_or_another

If you're using some other DBMS check whether it has some similar function.

}
echo Last Sunday is returned as: .last_sunday();

Some servers have 'automatically adjust clock for daylight saving 
changes' switched on, some have this off - (im in the UK GMT +0).

With daylight saving on the above script returns: 2003-03-29
With daylight saving off the above script returns: 2003-03-30

Im puzzled with this one - any ideas?

[PHP] MSSQL/PHP Problem

2003-03-31 Thread Poon, Kelvin (Infomart)
Hi, 

I have this problem retrieving data from a mssql table with PHP.

I have this in my mssql table column:

Globe and Mail data are retrieved and processed for CustomSearch.

On the R30, the crontab entry:
0 4 * * 1-6  /usr1/applic/ntgm/ntgm_get.pl
will run the Perl script at 4 a.m. everyday to retrieve the data from Globe
and Mail.  It will look for the file, retry if not found, until 6 a.m.

Most common problem is caused by the data file not available after 6 a.m.
for retrieval.  The system will send an error message to the support team to
alert the problem.

To retry downloading manually, simply sign on to the R30 and run the script
/usr1/applic/ntgm/ntgm_get.pl.

The data file can be found in the done directory and two log files in the
log directory.

WHen I retrieve this data from php to display on my webpage I get this:

Globe and Mail data are retrieved and processed for CustomSearch. 
On the R30, the crontab entry: 
0 4 * * 1-6 /usr1/applic/ntgm/ntgm_get.pl 
will run the Perl script at 4 a.m. everyday to retrieve the data from Globe
and Mail. It will look for the fi

The code I have in my php to display this text is:

$query = SELECT * FROM knowledgeBase WHERE Title = '$title';
$result = mssql_query($query);
$line = mssql_fetch_row($result);
echo $line[2];

$line[2] because this data is in the second column of the mssql table of the
row '$title'

P.S. I have set the limit of the mssql table to have 8000 character, so it
should exceed the limit, but I just don't know why it takes only 6 lines of
the total 11 lines of what I had in the mssql table.

Please advise! THANKS!

 if you have cpanel you can add the extension from there.

Yeah, I need to find out where to add the CSS extension to my list of

- If the PortName is not specified, or specified incorrectly on the 
SelectPrinter line, it is printed correctly on the DEBUG line. (i.e. 
if Ne00: is specified on the SelectPrinter line, Ne01: is reported 
on the DEBUG line.)

I am in the process of converting an Intranet application from CGI4VB 
to PHP.  Some of the scripts call Crystal Reports RDC to print to 
either PDF or their printer, which is mapped through the network on 
the server. I therefore need to call the SelectPrinter method.  Any 
workarounds or patches for this would be very helpful.

[PHP] Date Problem - Last Day Of Month

2003-03-31 Thread Vinesh Hansjee
Hi there, can anyone tell me how to fix my code so that on the last day of
the month, my code doesn't repeat the months...
What the code suppose to do is, makes a drop down box from which you can
select the month, and if its the current month
the box is already selected.

select name=month

?

for ($i=1; $i=12; $i++) {
 if ($i == date(m)) {
  print option selected value=\. $i . \ .
date(F,mktime(0,0,0,$i,date(d),date(Y))) . /option;
 } else {
  print option value=\. $i . \ .
date(F,mktime(0,0,0,$i,date(d),date(Y))) . /option;
 }
}

?

/select

Thanks

Re: [PHP] Date Problem - Last Day Of Month

2003-03-31 Thread Liam Gibbs
 Hi there, can anyone tell me how to fix my code so that on the last day of
 the month, my code doesn't repeat the months...

I'm not sure what you mean by this, but I can be a moron on this list
sometimes and the clear answer usually comes to me about 2 seconds after I
hit the send button. Do you mean that you don't want any months in the
SELECT control when it's the last of the month? Or you don't want the
SELECTED attribute in the OPTION tags? As far as I can tell, you're not
repeating any months, but you're only listing them once.

Try this (and IMHO a *slight* *slight* improvement in clarity, but again,
that's my HO):

select name=month
?
for ($counter=1; $counter=12; $counter++) {
print option value=\. $counter . \;
if (($counter == date(m)) || (date(d)  date(t))) {
print  selected;
}
print  . date(F,mktime(0,0,0,$counter,date(d),date(Y))) .
/option;
}
}
/select

I adjusted it so that you only print out the SELECTED attribute if it's the
current month, and I called $i as $counter, because, to me anyway, it makes
it clearer what is the $counter. If $i works for you, though, there's
nothing wrong with that, and it's not that it's unclear anyway, what with it
in the FOR loop only a few lines earlier. (I'll shut up now about $counter.)

Anyway, I added a comparison above that said if the current date is less
than the last day of the month, then print SELECTED. That's assuming I have
your question right in that you don't want to select the current month if
it's the last day of that month. Otherwise, if I'm wrong, you can take that
comparison and put it just about anywhere.

Help? Doesn't? Am I a complete goof?

Re: [PHP] Re: XML+XSLT or Smarty again??

2003-03-31 Thread Hardik Doshi
Hi,

From my point of view, XML+XSLT increases complexity
with very less number of advantages. 

Fundamental of using XML+XSLT with PHP is to seperate
HTML code from the PHP and database code. But in the
following article, it shows XSL stylesheet comes with
full of logic. Do we really need this approach?? At
this time i think smarty is separating the
presentation from logic in the best manner.

Please correct me if i am wrong.

THanks

Re: [PHP] Re: XML+XSLT or Smarty again??

2003-03-31 Thread Pete James
IMO, Smarty is just an abstraction of PHP.  Smarty templates are HTML 
templates, but they still contain their own application logic for 
looping, etc, and so are still not a real separation (or are *dirty*, as 
'rush' calls it).

XML+HTML+XSLT (or Template Tamer from what I can gather) take it the 
extra step.  The application logic in PHP generates an XML data stream, 
which contains no dependencies on output.  It is simply data.  The XSLT 
parser parses the HTML template (which contains _only_ HTML and 
placeholders), and when it encounters a placeholder it executes the 
relevant XSLT code.  This way, the design department can design the HTML 
fully, without having to learn PHP, Smarty, or any other syntax.  They 
just put in placeholder tags wherever information from the XML file is 
needed.

There are drawbacks to every abstraction, and templating is no 
different.  Smarty templates are fast, and are enjoyed by a large user 
base for their relative simplicity.  XML, XSLT, etc are complex and 
verbose, but provide for maximum abstraction.  Template Tamer sounds 
like it combines the best from both (from what I've heard here).

It is a matter of taste, I suppose.  I think that people may sometimes 
waste more time trying to maximize the division between presentation and 
logic than it's worth.  Well written PHP scripts can be almost as good a 
template as any (by separating the HTML and just using embedded variables).

HTH,
Pete.

Re: [PHP] GNU Open Source

2003-03-31 Thread John Taylor-Johnston
Hi,

  This is a list for questions about PHP.  Look in the titlebar of your
  browser when you go to www.php.net
 He was asking *where* PHP stands (regarding licenses), not *what* PHP
 stands for. Maybe PHP FAQ should have something about licenses.

Indeed, I did find somehting ... in the licence FAQ (frequently asked question) 
section: http://www.php.net/license/ discusses: (I don't mean to frequently ask :) )

GPL enforces many restrictions on what can and cannot be done with the licensed code. 
 The PHP developers decided to release PHP under a much more loose license ... But 
you don't go into any further detail.

What I would like to know is what are the restrictions? A couple of examples would 
suffice. In a nutshell ... Something I can document in an academic paper I am 
presenting on the utility of PHP  MySQL combination and how it improved our 
research mindset.

Rasmus: I understand there are differences between GNU.org  OpenSource.org but I 
didn't mean to offend anyone. Sorry Rasmus, but I was surprised you would answer that 
way. Is this a touchy subject? The General list should be the correct place to ask?

Vinesh, there's a fundemental flaw in your logic.  The date(d) input will
fail to produce a reliable list if it is executed on any day after the 28th
of the month.  Since today is the 31st obviously this is going to cause some
problems becuase any month that ends on the 30th or earlier will return plus
one the month.  So February will return March, April willl return May, and
so on.  If you wait until tommorrow (the 1st) your function will magically
work.  :)

One way to fix this is to build your own array of month names and reference
that instead of using the date() function.

$months = array(1=January, 2=February, 3=March, 4=April,
5=May, 6= ... and so on...);

for($i=1; $i=12; $i++)
{
$selected = ;
if ($i == date(m));{$selected = SELECTED;}
echo option $selected value=\${months[$i]}\\n;
}

I think the main point is that this question is completely off-topic. Neither
gnu.org nor opensource.org are sites that have anything to do with using PHP.

 I've considered that route, but an issue I have with that is I do most
 of my development work on a machine that a different directory
structure
 than the production server (currently a Cobalt RaQ4), so the paths are
 different. Accommodating both would be a time consuming project for
me.

I always put it into a variable.

$_CONF['path'] = '/home/web/www/';

and then use that variable in all of your includes or requires. I also
make an HTML variable that's used in all links and images.

$_CONF['html'] = 'http://www.mysite.com/';

Sure, you have to get used to using this variable everywhere, but it
makes switching server pretty easy.

 If you're using mysql you can do something like:

 If you're using some other DBMS check whether it has some

Hey folks,

What we are looking to do is give a specific include path for each site in our 
customer base.  This running on MacOSX so basically we have sites set up like:

/Users/username/Sites/site.com/phpinc

There can be numerous sites in each users directory and numerous users in /Users.

Basically what we want to do is have each set up to be able to include only from their 
include directory, but the boss is wondering if it can be done on one or two lines for 
every site total.

Basically looking for something like this:
Directory /Users/*/Sites/*/phpinc
php-value include_path = . 
/Directory

or something like it.  

Is this possible?  Or should we just go ahead and set it in each sites declaration?

I am calling ImageMagick's identify. If I do that via command line, I get a
textline as result with all images. If I do the same with exec or passthru,
I only get results with certain image-types.

Does anyone have any idea of what the problem could be ?

thanks !

Hi,

in my code I am trying to send an email (containing a password) to a user 
when he has forgotten his password.

The problem is that security leads to needing to encrypt passwords in the 
database. Im using the password function within mysql. Is there any way of 
reversing the password function() to get the original password to send out 
to the user?

Or are there any other suggestions in PHP to reverse encryption of 
passwords. I do understand the principles of encryption and can see the 
point of unreversible functions but Im sure that not all applications re-set 
passwords with random generated ones but do send out forgotten passwords.

Cheers

I'm used to asp and not php, but what would the code be for and if statement
that was like:

 if $HTTP_GET_VARS[pr_ID] = nothing then
there are no products
end if

Also does anyone know a great resource that lists different examples of php
variables, if statements, and so on?

Thanks so much!

Re: [PHP] Parsing CSS files

Why do you need to do this in the first place?  If you're trying to 
create dynamic CSS, the .php extension will be fine as long as you send 
the proper content-type header.

I'm pretty sure that if it was in a form but left blank isset() won't work
because it is set in the globals, it is just empty.  I've never used

Is there some reason you want to access it through com?

I'm assuming that you've added the access db as an odbc data source? I'm not
sure, but it seems like you might be using the wrong syntax.

You might want to check out this:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.odbc.php

... or... this, which is a good example of how to use odbc in php:

Also, is it giving you an error or just not returning results?

[PHP] str_replace() problem

2003-03-31 Thread René Fournier
I am performing a str_replace() on a large string, and everything works 
fine, except that two of the elements I'm searching for (and replacing) 
have the same first letters. To keep it the issue clear, here's a 
simple example of what I'm talking about:

Blue
Blueberry
Now, if I use:

str_replace(Blue,Red,$paragraph);
str_replace(Blueberry,Strawberry,$paragraph);
...all occurrences of Blueincluding Blueberrywill be replaced with 
Red. The result will be something like:

Red
Redberry
...But what I want is...

Red
Strawberry
 I need str_replace to somehow only search for a complete occurrence of 
each item. How do I do that? I've read the docs, and I just can't see 
any examples.

Thanks.

...Rene

[PHP] Question on response time, SQL vs. PHP

2003-03-31 Thread Liam Gibbs
I'm trying to do a count(*) in SQL. Would it be faster to do a or b below?

a: just do a simple query, and use mysql_num_rows() to return the row count; or
b: do the count(*) and use mysql_fetch_row() to return the result.

I guess it would have to do more with SQL response time (is it faster to grab the 
count and then the row, or all rows in question and then do a count in PHP).

 I am performing a str_replace() on a large string, and everything works
 fine, except that two of the elements I'm searching for (and replacing)
 have the same first letters. To keep it the issue clear, here's a
 simple example of what I'm talking about:

 Blue
 Blueberry

 Now, if I use:

 str_replace(Blue,Red,$paragraph);
 str_replace(Blueberry,Strawberry,$paragraph);


 ...all occurrences of Blueincluding Blueberrywill be replaced with
 Red. The result will be something like:

 Red
 Redberry

 ...But what I want is...

 Red
 Strawberry

   I need str_replace to somehow only search for a complete occurrence of
 each item. How do I do that? I've read the docs, and I just can't see
 any examples.

 Thanks.

You might be able to be more precise using ereg_replace().  But I donot know
the regular expression to make it happen.  Or if your situation allows it
you can hack it by appending a single space on the end of each input.
Either way what you need to do is give the script more information about
exactly what you want to replace.

echo str_replace(Blue , Red , $paragraph);

You could replace the longer one, Blueberry, first. Then, the only
remaining occurrences of Blue will be ones that you really want.

Just change the order and do the search and replace on Blueberry before doing it 
on Blue.

Ei:

str_replace(Blueberry,Strawberry,$paragraph);
str_replace(Blue,Red,$paragraph);

or:

str_replace(array(Blueberry, Blue), array(Strawberry, Red), $paragraph);

I'm trying to do a count(*) in SQL. Would it be faster to do a or b below?

a: just do a simple query, and use mysql_num_rows() to return the row count;
or
b: do the count(*) and use mysql_fetch_row() to return the result.

I guess it would have to do more with SQL response time (is it faster to
grab the count and then the row, or all rows in question and then do a count
in PHP).

[PHP] Files uploads problem

2003-03-31 Thread Adrian Greeman
I am a learner in PHP - I have been using Larry Ullman's Peachpit beginners
book which I have found useful to take me through the basics.

But the examples were written before the general applicaton of the new
$_POST, $_GET and similar arrays. It has been valuable learning to change
the code for that (I use version 4.2. (and a bit) and Larry Ullman  is very
helpful on his own website forum with readers' queries on the book examples.

But I am having real trouble making a file upload programme work. It needs
substitution of $FileName given in the example with $_FILES array values
which I have done and use of isset instead of a raw if().  But I still
cannot get it to work

May I put the code here and ask if anyone can tell me the problme.
Incidentally I use Windows ME with Apache 2.0.36 and PHP 4.2.. The files
upload is on with a max size of 2M and no specific directory given for a
temp store (the INI says it will use the default directory.)

My test out script is as follows::-


!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC -//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN

html
head
titleUploader/title
/head
body
?php

if(isset($_FILES['File'])) {

$File=$_FILES['File'];
$File_name=$_FILES['File']['name'];
$File_size=$_FILES['File']['size'];


echo (p$File_name/pbr /\n);
echo ($_FILES['File']['name']);

print(File name: $File_namep /\n);
print(File size: $File_sizep /\n);




if (copy ($_FILES[File][tmp_name],users/$File_name)) {
   print(The file was sucessfully uploaded.p /\n);
   }else{
   print(Your file could not be copied unfortunately.p /\n);
   }

 unlink($File);
 }

 echo (Upload a file to the server.);
 echo (Form action=\FileUpload.php\ method=POST
enctype=\multipart/form-data\\n);
 echo (File: input type=file name=\File\br /\n);
 echo (input type=submit name=\submit\ value=\Press here to
upload.\br // form\n);


//test whether anything prints for the FILES array
echo (pemfont color=\green\Can I get it to print the variable
outside the conditional? i.e.  this one 
{$_FILES['File']['name']}./font/em/p\n);



//set any old variable and print it to be sure basics work
$TestPrint=pbigfont color=\purple\Print this out
then./font/big/p.\n;

echo($TestPrint);

Is there something I've missed in the script. Or perhaps Apache 2 is the
problem?

You should be using if(!isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['id'])){  Otherwise, it 
generates an eror when it simply doesn't exist.   and nothing (an 
unset variable) are NOT the same.

Now when I change the == to  I receive the following error:

Why would that not work - In asp it does, but I can't get it workin in php.
If that doesn't make sense, I would like to have an if statement the says,

Couple of HTML problems to point out.  Where you have br // form\n, /
form is an invalid tag.  Remove the space.  Also where you have
enctype=\multipart/form-data\ you need quotes after the slashes (ie. \)
otherwise PHP is going to assume that you want the litteral slash in the
HTML.

Niether of these errors will return visable error code but both will result
in you not being able to submit the form.

Also when you go to unlink($File); you're going to see an error becuase
$File is not a valid file path, it's an array.  Besides you shouldn't worry
about trying to clean up the temp file.  PHP will do it automatically when
the script exists.  :-)

HTH,
Kevin

Hi Sebastian,

 $variable = $id;
 // some other stuff
 @mysql_query here
 $id = mysql_insert_id();
 
 How do I get $id from insert_id() to pass to $variable
 above? Hard to explain the situation i am in, but the 
 query has to be below $variable

::blink::

Perhaps something like:

$loc = $PHP_SELF. ?variable=. $id;
header(Location:. $loc);

You'd have to put something in to stop an infinte loop though.

Cheers
Jon

[PHP] can't get imagecopy, etc. function to work.

2003-03-31 Thread Wo Chang
Dear Experts,

Seems like I can't use any of the followings even
though I'm running PHP 4.3.2-RC1:

  * imagecreatefromjpeg
  * imagecopy
  * etc.

Am I right the gd-2.x has already integrated with
PHP 4.3.2-RC1 and the gd also has the jpeg integrated?

Or, should do I have to bring in the jpeg-6x myself?

If I need to bring in the jpeg-6x myself, should I
install it within the ext/gd sub-dir?

Thing wanted to do: create a separate thumbnail jpeg
file from an org. jpeg file.  Any better idea?

Please advice.

Thanks in advanced.

Subject: how can php applications use session control to track multiple users?


 Dear Experts,
 
 I know you can use session_register to register varialbes,
 but how do you use sessions for multiple users?
 
 Ex.
 
 $valid_user = $username; // let's say $username has JSmith
 session_register(valid_user);
 
 but if another user (SWhite) logins, then the valid_user now
 has the value of SWhite and the earlier user JSmith is
 gone.  So, how do you make the sessions looks like:
 
 JSmith|s:6:JSmith;SWhite|s:6:SWhite;
 
 Is this the way how people usually implment to track multiple
 users?
 
 Any hints would be greatly appreciated!

RE: [PHP] excel 2 csv 2 mysql

2003-03-31 Thread jon roig
Yeah... you're going to have to use COM or something similar on a windows
server to get effective access to the server.

Another option is dynamically adding at as an odbc datasource and querying
it. Again, this will only work on a windows server...

It's all much easier if you can convince users to upload csv files.

[PHP] cookies with internet explorer on macs

2003-03-31 Thread Jimmy Brake
Hi!

The cookies i set for people using Internet Explorer on mac (OS X or mac
os 8-9) are not staying alive as long as I would like(12hours) they only
last for a few hours or sometimes even a few minutes, the time on the
end users computers are set correctly. IE on windows is fine and Mozilla
and other browsers on linux are fine. 

This is what I use to set the cookie.  

$rand = md5(uniqid(rand()));
setcookie(sessid, $rand, time()+43200, /);

Any ideas? 

Thanks!

Jimmy

The point is, PHP is not released under GPL any more -- it's under QPL, so
this thread hardly seems relevant to any PHP list -- just my two cents
though.

/Why/ did they change?  They state it on the very next line:
The PHP developers decided to release PHP under a much more loose license
(Apache-style), to help PHP become as popular as possible.


If you need to know more than that, I'd start by reading both licenses, and
perhaps looking for plain English or annotated versions of the licenses
which help you compare them.

But really, this isn't related to PHP any more.

[PHP] parse_str()

2003-03-31 Thread Jose
I might be wrong here, but with the code below I would expect $_GET to be
filled and the script to output the next line:

   ?php
   $example_string = 'action=kickitem=me';
   parse_str($example_string);
   var_dump($_GET);
   ?

// expected output:
//
// array(2) { [action]=  string(4) kick [item]=  string(2) me }
//

Is my assumption wrong? What would be the workaround?

Thanks,

Putting an  sign in front of the $id in the first line should do the trick:

$variable = $id;


A short example:
$bar = 0;
$foo = $bar;
$bar = 2;

Re: [PHP] Question on response time, SQL vs. PHP

2003-03-31 Thread Leif K-Brooks
It's faster to use count(*), because it just has to fetch a count of the 
rows (but not the rows themselves).  If you're retrieving the rows 
anyway, you should use mysql_num_rows,

Liam Gibbs wrote:

I'm trying to do a count(*) in SQL. Would it be faster to do a or b below?

a: just do a simple query, and use mysql_num_rows() to return the row count; or
b: do the count(*) and use mysql_fetch_row() to return the result.
I guess it would have to do more with SQL response time (is it faster to grab the count and then the row, or all rows in question and then do a count in PHP).
