Make your own function, for example: function transformDate($format,$str) { $d = Array(); for($i=0;$istrlen($str);$i+=2) { $d[]=substr($str,$i,2); } return date($format,mktime($d[4],$d[5],$d[6],$d[2],$d[3],$d[0]$d[1])); } print transformDate(Y-m-d H:i:s,20030917181909); So, you can change to any format with the first arg. of the function.

Nevertheless, on Mozilla, it works fine for me!! For not loading the pdf on netscape, I thought it is because the script does some output to the browser before I call header(content-type:application/pdf); Therefore, I put ob_start() before starting session and call ob_end_clean() before setting the header for pdf content. It does not correct the problem. I am wondering what exactly the session_start() does? How it can have different effect upon various browser?

[PHP] PHP Apache (GLOBALS) question
I'm forwarding this from the php-windows group. (I sent it to both with the hopes someone with information would see this). I have installed Mandrake Linux and it comes standard with Apache PHP and MySQL. You can install all these rpms through the server selectionAnyway. In my test environment it is function city and of course register globals were on. Now I have Taked my PHP.INI-DIST set the globals to on and copied it to my /etc directory. It worked like a charmbut guess what. I can't create a connection string to my database. Now I have to find a solution to get this website to work with globals on and mysql. I have tried adding an .htacess with the php globals override thing php_value register_globals 1 Ok this didn't work. So I found the Mysql-PHP RPM on my mandrake cd (of course enabling my php.ini file) and it didn't work. I'm getting closer to a solution but I am stuck. Why won't the htaccess file work? I would like to use my php.ini file but it is not configured for mysql, how could I fix this? Is there anything I can do for either of these two questions to get my globals on? I swear I will never use functions again if someone helps me. :) Frank __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

I have a 14-char date string like 20030917181909 and I need to break it into its component parts for a more readable 2003-09-17 18:19:09 view. How can I do that?

I think php can do that with preg_match, using an array to hold the matches. As the other poster said, if this is mysql, let mysql do the work for you :) I suggest this also. Or use the mysql unixtimestamp function to return a uts and format the output with php. In general most of my timestamp fields, in my tables, I create as an INT then just store the Unix timestamp in there. Makes things easier when trying to display things.

Re: [PHP] Bypassing the 'open or save' dialog when outputting a docum ent

Is there a way to stop this dialog box appearing everytime - can I just open the document without it appearing. I know theres a checkbox at the bottom of the dialog you can unitck but I only want this setting to apply to certain pages. Nope, unfortunately you don't have that power, and for good reasons.

Maybe it's due to the sendmail configuration, or maybe not, I'm not really sure, 'cos I'm not a Linux expert. The odds are pretty high that it is your sendmail configuration. Internally all php does is pass the information directly to sendmail. Unless you're bcc'ing 10 people it won't take that long for php. Anyway, I cannot take so long to send a simple mail with PHP, so I need to find a solution, another way to send a mail or the riht configuration for sendmail. sendmail can be a nightmare to configure, if you are concerned about speed, I might suggest finding a different mta like qmail or postfix.

Re: [PHP] PHP vs CGI ???
PHP comes in three major compilations: module, CGI, and CLI. The module only works for web server (that I know of) and is the fastest way to serve PHP based content from a web server. CGI can be run for either the shell, or from the web server. There is a performance hit when run from the web server since the binary must be loaded on every request; however, many hosting companies offer the CGI solution because it gives the developer complete control over PHP version, extensions, and anything else related to the binary itself. CGI as I said can also be used for shell scripts. It was originally the only way to use PHP for shell scripting until the recent addition of the CLI compilation which provides features and enhancements specifically targeted at shell scripting in PHP.

Why can't I send a variable this way? You need to step back and do some debugging. I assume you just made a mistake in your email, but you mentioned this not working: http://www.routerbitworld.com/index.php?pagename=checkout Now, if this is what your Location header is assigned to, you will send the browser on an endless journey to find the resource it wants: 1. if ($pagename==login || $pagename==signup || $pagename==checkout) OK, yes it does (assuming register_globals is on). Let's go to the next step: 2. if (!$HTTPS) Assuming this works as you expect, this conditional is still true, because you used http in your URL. So, we continue: 3. Redirect to http://www.routerbitworld.com/index.php?pagename=checkout Rinse. Repeat. That would definitely be a problem. Before I make any other guesses, try this (I always suggest this same thing): For eac: header('Location: http://example.org/'); Change this to: echo 'Location: http://example.org'; Meaning, echo where you're trying to redirect rather than sending the header.

Hey all. Got a problem with a site builder app I've spent three months developing. On my local machine (win2k pro, apache), no problems -- everything works just as designed. Today I began testing on the live server; i.e. my client's hosting company (linux, apache 1.3.27, php 4.3.1) -- that's when the trouble started. The site builder app builds static pages based on changes made by users in our online administration center. When I test out creating a new site section; i.e. triggering my make_file function(writes page content to new file) I receive the following error: Warning: fopen(/local_server_path/file_to_create.php) [function.fopen]: failed to create stream: Permission denied I've attempted to chmod(777) my testing directory via ftp client, which appears to work; however, when I fileperms($file_in_test_dir), I get chmod(644), so clearly I'm not the owner. Pardon my ignorance here, but I as yet know little about dir/file perms. Should I contact the host and have them give me sufficient permissions?

[PHP] Media Presentations
I wanted to create web based slideshow and audio media presentations and was disappointed by two PHP function sets. I would love to hear of any others that might be available. Tried MING, and discovered that there were at least 3 different versions (all numbered version 0.2a) that were incompatible with each other depending on where I installed my code. Example: function swfbitmap 1). would in one case accept a string containing image. 2). in a second case accepted a string containing a file name but not the bitmap 3). and in a third case only accepted a file handle (returned from fopen) of the file containing the bit map and not just the filename. I then tried the SWFlib functions available with PHP and discovered that it is no longer supported, and that source is unavailable. (one reason that a version for the windows platform is unavailable). This also means that keeping up with the latest shockwave reader features is not possible (which bothers me more). Are there any options I have overlooked? thanks in advance, Warren Vail

Pardon my ignorance here, but I as yet know little about dir/file perms. Should I contact the host and have them give me sufficient permissions? If you create a subdirectory of the root level public HTML directory, then PHP can create files there, but not in the root level directory. If you change permissions to 777, PHP can create files there, but it's not a good idea to have the permissions that wide-open. You might be able to get your commercial host to change who PHP is running as from nobody to your login identity, then PHP could write to the root level directory, but you might not be able to -- my main host says they're changing policy for security reasons to not allow that. You could put the static files in a subdirectory where PHP will have permission to create files. But this might require lots of reworking links depending on your site design, and thus not be a viable option. You could set up a PHP script to be executed by a crontab as a CGI. Done this way, PHP can write to the root level directory. This is what I did recently for a similar problem. The content management system provides a link for updating static HTML pages. That link (script) writes info to the database, flagging an update request. Every 5 minutes, a crontab calls the PHP CGI script that actually does the update. The script checks the database flag and does the updates if they've been requested (flagged). Bottom line -- discuss the problem with your commercial host and see what they suggest. -- Lowell Allen -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

You can use ftp functions to create the files, so permissions won't be problem anymore. CF High wrote: Hey all. Got a problem with a site builder app I've spent three months developing.

Re: [PHP] config file
From: Payne [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have a project that I need to write and in the past I would hard code a lot of information in pages that I should have put into a config file. I am wanting to know if there a website that example how to write a config file and how to the php call them. You can use a php.ini-style config file and quickly and easily parse it with parse_ini_file(). Only security issue to watch for is storing the file in your webroot and someone being able to call it up and view it plain text. Config files should not be in the web root. If you HAVE to store it there for some reason, deny access to it through an .htaccess file, or give it a .php extension and put a line it it like: ; ?php exit; ? Notice the semi-colon at the end which will make this a commented out line for parse_ini_file() purposes. However, when parsed by PHP directly (called through a browser), PHP will hit the exit; call and terminate the execution of the file and no other lines will be shown. Someone else mentioned include(), which would mean you'd have a normal PHP file that defines variables and just include it. This is useful if a PHP coder is doing the maintaining, but if someone else is changing things, you have to ensure they don't mess up the PHP code. Using a php.ini-style file is easier for others as it's less strict on the syntax. Hope this helps. ---John Holmes... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Session and Server variable problem
Hi all, Have an interesting problem. Worked on a web site for a client. They have the server (IIS) set up and we are using php. Have been working with their domain with a .net extension. To go live, they repointed their .com domain to the web folder. Same spot the .net points to. But now server and session variables aren't working. They still work if we use .net but not .com. Can't set or read them. Anyone run into this before? Thanks for any thoughts and assistance.

Re: [PHP] Opening new browser window
Rich Fox said the following on 9/19/2003 12:33 PM I would like to open a new browser window from within my php script (edit.php), a window in which another php page is run (search.php). search.php should be able to receive $_POST vars etc. from edit.php.

By normally, I mean that when I use javascript to popup a new window (search.php), and in search.php I have a form form action=searchAction.php method=post input type=hidden name=caller value=window.opener.location.href window is a javascript object and so you should be calling some javascript function to set the value here, something like body onload = setvalue() script document.form.caller.value=window.opener.location.href; /script input type=hidden name=ID value=? $_GET['ID'] ? input type=hidden name=Type value=? $type? input type=button name=btnOKvalue=OK input type=button name=btnCancel value=Cancel /form clicking OK or Cancel does absolutely nothing. So, I would like to avoid javascript and simply open a new browser window to run search.php. What is the accepted way to do this in php? btnOK and btnCancel are not instructed to do anything when clicked and so there's nothing wrong they are doing! what work these two buttons are supposed to do? I assume 1. btnOK is to post the data to server? in that case, you should have it as button=submit or an onClick=javascript function()? 2. btnCancel is to close the window and go back to the parent page? in that case also, you should have a onClick function.

Re: [PHP] Opening new browser window
Why use a javascript to create a new window? Any link can be directed to a new window with a simple target=. a href=search.php?ID=$companyIDType=Industry target=Industry Industry would be the reference name of the window. For instance, if you wanted to refer to it from another window. PHP is server side, all it does is serve up a resulting page to a client. The client has no idea that PHP is being used, nor does it care. To answer your question you can't do it in PHP, but you can do it using HTTP, HTML and/or Javascript.

Sessions, by default, rely on cookies to propogate the session ID. You are somehow setting the domain of the cookie to the .net address, more than likely. There are a multitude of ways you can do it, though. Check your session.cookie_domain in php.ini. Check if it's being set with session_set_cookie_params() or ini_set() or if the cookie is being created manually with setcookie(). ---John Holmes... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Web server file perms || More than I can chew.....
Thanks for the informative post, Lowell Marek. Our host suggested chmod-ing necessary directories via ftp. Completely defeats the purpose of my app which is supposed to allow the client to maintain the site themselves; not have me mess around with directory/file perms -- ugggh In any case, I'm more than a little frustrated that the app works like a dream locally; now, I have to hack around to get it working live. I'm not a huge fan of the latest version of php now either. I was able to open external files (e.g. http://somesite.com/index.php) with fopen(); no such luck in this realease. Getting a freaking php_hostconnect: connect failed error message now. My mood is down the tubes at present -- waiting for some divine inspiration as my efforts to slog it out have me stewing.. --Noah Lowell Allen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On my local machine (win2k pro, apache), no problems -- everything works just as designed.

Pardon my ignorance here, but I as yet know little about dir/file perms. Should I contact the host and have them give me sufficient permissions? If you create a subdirectory of the root level public HTML directory, then PHP can create files there, but not in the root level directory. If you change permissions to 777, PHP can create files there, but it's not a good idea to have the permissions that wide-open. You might be able to get your commercial host to change who PHP is running as from nobody to your login identity, then PHP could write to the root level directory, but you might not be able to -- my main host says they're changing policy for security reasons to not allow that. You could put the static files in a subdirectory where PHP will have permission to create files. But this might require lots of reworking links depending on your site design, and thus not be a viable option. You could set up a PHP script to be executed by a crontab as a CGI. Done this way, PHP can write to the root level directory. This is what I did recently for a similar problem. The content management system provides a link for updating static HTML pages. That link (script) writes info to the database, flagging an update request. Every 5 minutes, a crontab calls the PHP CGI script that actually does the update. The script checks the database flag and does the updates if they've been requested (flagged). Bottom line -- discuss the problem with your commercial host and see what they suggest. -- Lowell Allen -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
