Re: [PHP] user-defined superglobals?
It would be nice to have a php-function like declare_superglobal($_MYFRAMEWORK); And then use $_MYFRAMEWORK like $_GET. You have a few options: if you are looking to set variables that are static and atomic, you can use environmental variables in an .htaccess file (getenv() to access them) or you can use read-only constants (define() to create them). If you need a global read-write or array variable, just use $_GLOBALS: use $_GLOBALS['_MYFRAMEWORK'] like $_GET, etc. - michal migurski- contact info and pgp key: sf/cahttp://mike.teczno.com/contact.html -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Make sure that the user that you are connecting with has permissions to connect to mysql from that computer.

Re: [PHP] CRC and Polynomials
I found this mentioned in a old user comment (it might not be relevant now): Some quick reverse engineering shows they're using the standard CRC32 parameters: Polynomial 0x04C11DB7l Initial register value 0x Register is inverted at end of calculation Bytes are reflected as they come in, and the result is reflected before it is returned. The documentation says this function returns the CRC polynomial of the string - that's a little misleading IMHO. I'd say it simply returns the CRC of the string. The polynomial is a magic number in the calculation. and I've just downloaded the lastest source and found the crc32 function to be in crc32.c and crc32.h. In the comments it mentions that the polynomial is /* generated using the AUTODIN II polynomial * x^32 + x^26 + x^23 + x^22 + x^16 + * x^12 + x^11 + x^10 + x^8 + x^7 + x^5 + x^4 + x^2 + x^1 + 1 */ and there is a big table of 256 number which you may find useful. Oh finally I also found mentioned in the NEWS file that: - Added a crc32 checksum function - used by the UdmSearch search engine and currently run through a system call. This will speed up the UdmSearch php frontend significantly. (Rasmus) Which seems to be called udm_crc32, and so far undocumented. I hope this information has been useful.

[PHP] Does the URL influence if the page/data gets cached?
Hi all, We've recently released a significantly sized new web site coded entirely in PHP. One of the things done on the site is to link to various sections of it as follows: http://www.domain.com/?m=orders http://www.domain.com/?f=index As you can see we're neglecting to include the index.php in the link. Now this actually works perfectly (as it should) and the pages are displayed as you'd expect, however one thing we're finding is that it appears some browser just don't cache any of the page data. The images, html etc seems to be called back from the server each time. This is part speculation on my behalf of just watching the page load, sometimes it doesn't seem to do it, othertimes it does.

[PHP] str_replace performance in large mailing script
Hi all, I have a mailing script that sends individualised mails to users(some users even get more than one mail). I have a template html mail file. I individualise this by using str_replace function. It is really slow. Can anyone point me to some performance tips? I was thinking of including an modified template(with variables) in my message part. Thanks for any help!

I individualise this by using str_replace function. It is really slow. Can anyone point me to some performance tips? Without knowing how you're doing it now, it's kinda hard. First tip is to use the right tool for the job - use mailing list software, not a scripting language optimised for HTML. Second tip is that sprintf() should be faster than str_replace(). Compare: $text = Hello %s; $name = John; echo (str_replace (%s, $name, $text)); echo (sprintf ($text, $name)); Third tip is to make your template an array of strings rather than a single large array. Fourth tip is that you're probably running str_replace over the entire body of the text. At the very least, pre-process the template to find out which lines have substitutions in them, then only perform the replace on those lines in the main loop. Eg if we find that only lines 2, 3, and 15 need to be modified: $text = array (/* blah */); $lines = array (2, 3, 15); $replacements = array (John, [EMAIL PROTECTED], Viagra); $i = 0; foreach ($lines as $line) { $text[$line] = sprintf ($text[$line], $replacements[$i++]); } BTW, do you realise you're sending HTML emails? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

How to handle file upload is well explained right at the start of the manual.

The downside is that the simpler (and faster) you make it, the more assumptions you have to make about the template (in this case, one substitution per line and the substitution can't be the first or last element on the line). -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Content of Variable ist html code
Hi php-general, I'm thinking of how I could store the content of a String-variable a) in a Variable to be passed to other functions b) in a Database (MySQL) too . The content is html-code (with tags and style code (css)). The point is that I'm making myself a kind of CMS, and I want to edit a page, enter html code, store it in the database and then display it as content on a page. So, in the edit menu, I have to be able to see the html tags, but on the target page, the html entities have to be translated by the browser... and all that has to be storable in MySQL... How do I do that the best...?!? addslahes, stripslahses, htmlentities, html_entity_decode are the only functions I have found, which seem to be really useful.

Re: [PHP] Content of Variable ist html code
I'm not sure what you're asking but... Using htmlentities() and undohtmlentities() (look up the real functions) to data going into and out of your database will allow you to store it without getting lots of errors... mySQL storage (even TEXT and BLOB types) can't be larger then so many bytes (system dependent) so you would have to have code to split up and put back together big web pages. -Dan On Sun, 2003-08-24 at 11:55, Matthias Wulkow wrote: Hi php-general, I'm thinking of how I could store the content of a String-variable a) in a Variable to be passed to other functions b) in a Database (MySQL) too .

Re: [PHP] Using PHP on an .html file
Better to do this in an .htaccess file, so you don't incur PHP processing overhead on the entire server (if there are others using it). Apache suggests not using .htaccess files at all because they require a recursive traversing of directories looking for .htaccess files, because some supersede others or something like that. So look up how to allow it only on that directory using the main config files.

[PHP] Reading an MS Access Database file on *NIX platform using PHP
I'm building a small web application for a friend using PHP. He'd like to use MS Access to keep the data in, and update the data on the site by FTP'ing Access files he edits on his machine up to the web host. The web host is unix-based (FreeBSD, slightly hacked by Verio, I believe), so this means COM functions aren't available. ODBC was my next thought, but I've never used it, and there are a few things I don't understand. Setting up a DSN is one of them -- apparently this isn't as simple as constructing a string, and all the tutorials I can find seem to involve going into a Windows control panel and making a setting. This of course will not be possible, since there are no windows control panels on FreeBSD.

[PHP] script not terminating on user abort
Hi! The connection_* function don't seem to work for me and I can no longer determine when the user has aborted the script. When I close the browser window the script just keeps running. (see bug #23163) The body of the script essentially looks like this: while( !$done ) { $con-sendMessage(x); # Send msg to Jabber server sleep(1); } I made an interesting and somewhat weird observation though: If I use the print or echo command in the while-loop once (!) then the script will terminate after the loop has run *exactly* three times after the abort. If I put more than one print/echo in the loop (2-inf) then the script will terminate after *exactly* 2 (!) iterations of the loop after the script has aborted. The length of the string used in the print/echo statement doesn't seem to matter. I hope this helps as this bug is currently a showstopper for the stuff I'm developing (a PHP Jabber client). I'm running Red Hat 7.3 with the standard apache-1.3.27-2 package and a self-compiled php-4.3.3rc4 (php-4.3.2 didn't work either). -- - conversis GmbH Dennis Jacobfeuerborn Geschftsfhrer Falkstrae 73-77 47058 Duisburg [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
