Session should not have any influence. Perhaps Keep-alive connection, 
then by closing the browser the connection ends. If you would wait 
enough the connection will be closed anyway.

But certainly this is valueable knowledge.

Does anyone know whether the use of persistent connections with php will
allow a temp table created by a script to linger around


No, the table will still be removed at the end of the script whether you use
persistant connections or not.

and cause a problem
with the next execution of the script when it tries to create the temp
table

Temporary tables are unique for that specific question. So you can have the
same script creating the same temporary table and 100 people hit it
without issues. Each script creates it's own temporary table with a unique
name that only that connection has access to.

If this is the case it most likey is a mysql issue not a php one.

The xml parser will throw an error if you try and pass it an invalid xml 
document (which you can catch and process).

However, it would be best if you can validate your xml document first 
before running it through the parser.

I don't know why I said on the fly.. Lol.. 

The box I'm referring to is the input field box. I just need what's
submitted via the input field and add button to show up in a list
below the input box, to show the account numbers that were entered. I
can either insert them into the database each time the add button is
clicked, or my preference if possible, put them in an array of some
kind then submit them all at once. To get a picture of what I want...:




   Site Logo
 __
|__| ADD


 Submit and Continue  Submit and Exit




That's basically what this page looks like. What I need is when the
person inputs the account number in the input box, and clicks add, it
needs to refresh the page with the added number below that box, then
again for each number they enter.

Like I said, I can do this with multiple accesses to the database, but
I would like to know of a way I could submit them all at once instead
of multiple accesses to the database.


Let me know if you need more info.

Use 'COUNT(id) AS count_result', then you can access the value with
$row['count_result'];

[PHP] Call to undefined function: xml_parser_create()... but CGI compiled --with-xml

2003-11-01 Thread Dave [Hawk-Systems]
a production box running 4.2.2 recently had a script added to it requiring use
of xml functionality.  The box was already compiled (a few versions earlier)
with the --with-xml option.  Since then, have upgraded this box twice (though it
is due for another) using config.nice to ensure the same options are installed.

have configured this as an apache module and as the CGI...  the apache module
uses the XML functions just fine.  The CGI however gives the error in the
subject.

Have compared phpinfo() on each, and added extension_dir and include_dir to the
standalone php's php.ini so that it matches the apache module version, still no
joy.

Any thoughts, recommendations, or hints as to what I may be missing which would
cause the cgi version not to compile with the xml features even when
the --with-xml option is and has been specified since 4.0.x and through every
upgrade since then thanks to using the same config.nice.

thanks

Dave

RE: [PHP] Japanese entry into MySQL and into emails

2003-11-01 Thread Dave G

Thank you Edwin, Marek, and Eugene for your responses and
advice.
For storing the Japanese names in kanji in the database, I've
changed the column to blob. Storing and retrieving the fields seems to
work okay in all my tests, and this solution seemed to be the easiest
and without any potential impact on the rest of the database. Thank you
for this solution.
For sending the email in Japanese, I am still not quite getting
it. At first I attempted to attach character set information within the
mail() command like so:
$addheaders = 'From: ' .$email .'\r\nContent-Type: text/html;
charset=iso-2022-jp';
mail ($toaddress, $subject, $mailcontent, $addheaders);
This sends the mail correctly, but the content is still coming
out as ASCII gibberish.
I then attempted to use the mb_send_mail() command, like so
(this time a From:  address being the only additional header:
mb_language(Japanese);
mb_send_mail($toaddress, $subject, $mailcontent, $fromaddress);
But this had exactly the same result.
I see on the
http://jp2.php.net/manual/en/function.mb-send-mail.php web page there is
lots of additional comments on the use of mb-send-mail(), but the
technical vocabulary is beyond me.
Can someone help me tweak this code to successfully send a kanji
email?

One of two things...
1) You don't have php installed
2) Apache isn't configured to parse *.htm as php files.
If number one is the issue, install php.  If number two is the issue, 
change the file extension to one that Apache knows is a php file

[PHP] References and memory efficiency

2003-11-01 Thread Joachim Krebs
Hi there,

I've been working on a database wrapper class for a while now, MySQL to 
be specific. Until  now, I've simply had a fetch function that returned 
an array of all the rows that the database returned, only because I have 
gotten so tired of always writing the same while loop to iterate through 
all the rows.

However, I have discovered that the method I'm using, passing around 
large multidimensional arrays of text by copy, is extremely memory 
inefficient, so I am working on a new method. Tell me if this is any better:

Rather than using something like:

$sql = 'SELECT text, date, etc FROM news WHERE blah=\'foo\'';

if (!$myquery = $db-query($sql)) { echo 'uh oh'; }
if (!$db-numrows($myquery)) { echo 'no rows found'; }
$news = $db-fetchNews($myquery);

I could do something like:

$news = array();
$db-fetch($myquery, $news);
Where fetch($query, $array) is the header. In the second case, the 
fetch function would therefore write the rows directly to the array 
which was passed as a reference rather than returning a copy. Am I right 
in thinking that this is a better method? Should I shut up and do a 
while loop?

Thanks,

Joachim

Jake McHenry wrote:


Hi everyone, here's what I'm doing.

As of right now, I don't have anything implemented, but 
here's what I 

need to do.

I have a web page, with a drop down list of hotels, an 
input box for 

the users frequent hotel number, and a add button. At the bottom
of 

the page is a update and continue button to move the user 
to the next 

page with more options.

What my boss wants is, when someone puts in a number, and 
clicks add, 

he wants it to take that number and put it below the box, 
all on the 

fly. I know I could do this through repeated sql insert 
querys, but I 

was wondering if I could just put them into an array, then 
update the 

database with one query after the user clicks the update 
and continue 

button at the bottom, to get them to the next page?
This sounds like something javascript can fix. If you can be 
a bit more 
precise below the box doesn't mean much. What box? Is it a 
big green 
box? Blue box? Box of boxes?

If you want on the fly then its javascript. For php to work, you'd


have to send a request to the server, which would kill your 
on the fly 
part.

I don't know why I said on the fly.. Lol.. 

The box I'm referring to is the input field box. I just need what's
submitted via the input field and add button to show up in a list
below the input box, to show the account numbers that were entered. I
can either insert them into the database each time the add button is
clicked, or my preference if possible, put them in an array of some
kind then submit them all at once. To get a picture of what I want...:


   Site Logo
 __
|__| ADD
 Submit and Continue  Submit and Exit



That's basically what this page looks like. What I need is when the
person inputs the account number in the input box, and clicks add, it
needs to refresh the page with the added number below that box, then
again for each number they enter.
You can attach a javascript function to the onclick event of the Add 
button that populates your drop down. Of course, this assumes that you 
have a predefined array of all possible values (in javascript) that the 
user can enter.

However, if your user can arbitrarily enter values, and all you need to 
do is add them to the drop down list, then some simple javascript DOM 
is all you need. Then when the user clicks on the Submit and Continue 
button, use php to read the dropdown array (appending [] to the name 
attribute's value will help -- like this select name=foo[] then 
$_POST['foo'][0] would hold the value of your selected index).

If you are not a big fan of javascript + DOM (this is, after all, a PHP 
list) -- you can use PHP to dynamically populate the dropdown by 
appending the value of the entered box to the array. Something along the 
lines of (untested):

$textbx = isset($_POST['textbx']) ? $_POST['textbx'] : NULL;
$menu = array();
if ($textbx != NULL)
{
   $menu['somevalue'] = $textbx;
} else { echo select name=\chooser[]\option value=\NULL\ 
selected=\selected\Please enter a value/option/select;
}

/* we now assume that the array was populated */
echo select name=\chooser[]\\n;
echo option value=\NULL\ selected=\selected\Value Entered 
Below/option\n;
while(list($k,$v) = each($menu))
{
   echo option value=\.$k.\.$v./option\n;
}
echo /select;

Hope this helps.

I'm not making a drop down box, I just want the contents of what is
added to be displayed on the page.

I got all of this done by creating an array and storing it in a
session variable.

Here's the code...

if ($_POST['2_Add'] != )
{
  if (($_POST['Frequent_Flyer_Program'] != ) 
($_POST['Frequent_Flyer_Number'] != ))
  {
$array = array();
$new =
{$_POST['Frequent_Flyer_Program']},{$_POST['Frequent_Flyer_Number']}
;
$old = $_SESSION['Frequent_Flyer'];
$array = array_merge($old, $new);
$_SESSION['Frequent_Flyer'] = $array;
  }
  header(Location: profile2.php);
}



The only dilema I have now is... How can I allow the user to remove
entries from this array if they make a mistake?

On the other pages where the add button is, and the list, I have a
foreach loop that explodes the array and 

[PHP] Register Procedure - AOLServer / TCL - PHP Equivalent

2003-11-01 Thread Ahbaid Gaffoor
Hello all,

when using AOL Server you can register a procedure against the server 
and use this as your web page.

for example a procedure that prints Hello World as an HTML page name 
helloproc

So if I call up http://server/helloproc the procedure serves up the page 
to the client browser

Is such a feature provided under Apache / PHP?

If so, how is it implemented?

A short example would be helpful.

thanks,

Ahbaid.

[PHP] deleting characters from strings

2003-11-01 Thread Robb Kerr
I feel really stupid posting this but I can't seem to find the correct
syntax in the language guide. I have a string which has been progressively
built during a FOREACH loop through an array (a SELECT statement in which
the WHERE part is built with ORs from the array of entries). The final
query winds up with an extra OR at the end. I need to simply delete
characters (STRLEN($string) - 3) through STRLEN($string). What's the proper
syntax?

Thanx,

[PHP] Persisting MySQL connection accross scripts

2003-11-01 Thread rich
How can I establish a connection with a MySQL database and have it persist
accross multiple script files?

I've found the mysql_pconnect() function but this doesn't seem to do the job
- which is fairly logical actually because the connection is stored in a
variable:

$connect = mysql_pconnect();

and that variable $connection won't be available in another script.

I would have thought there would be a straightforward answer to this as it
seems that its someting which must be done fairly regularly.

The only workaround I can think of is sending the username, password and
database name to every script.  But how would you do this securely?

When establishing the initial connection I got the username and password
from a form which used the method=POST method.

But if I want to have a link to a script, say 'add_item.php', how can I do
it securely?

a href=add_item.php?username=? echo($_POST['username']): ?password=?
echo($_POST['password']): ?.../a

would not use the POST method.

I could use forms for every link but this seems ridiculously
over-complicated!

Thanks in advance for any pointers!

[PHP] Re: Persisting MySQL connection accross scripts

2003-11-01 Thread Joachim Krebs
With persistent connections, you actually have to have the 
mysql_pconnect statement in each script you want to use the connection 
in. The function will use an already-existing connection if one is 
available. If no existing connection could be found, it will initiate 
the link.

The manual at php.net says this as well: First, when connecting, the 
function would first try to find a (persistent) link that's already open 
with the same host, username and password. If one is found, an 
identifier for it will be returned instead of opening a new connection.

Re: [PHP] Persisting MySQL connection accross scripts

2003-11-01 Thread Marek Kilimajer
First, POST method is not any safer than GET method. Just because the 
username/password combination is not in the location bar does not mean 
that it is hidden. Anyone can view the html source.

The straightforward answer to this (and it is done fairly regularly) is 
that you require() a file that reads configuration (usualy another file) 
and connects to the database, and also does other usefull things.

PHP stands for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor. It's called a recursive

I try to send from my pc a mail with the function mail(), but if doesn't work, I have 
tried several time, but nothing, I don't know what could be, because the same script 
work well in a remote host.

in my php.ini, I put:

[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = mail.serbis.com

I also put

[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = mail.webdevfm.com

I also put (the local mail server that I have):
 
[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = ojpp.myftp.org



the errors are the follow:

You need to specify valid sender and recipient addresses. If you still 
have problems, you may want to try this class that has workarounds for 
some of the problems of the mail() function:

[PHP] eliminating dupes from MySQL query results

2003-11-01 Thread Robb Kerr
It's not exactly a Php problem, but MySQL and Php seem to be so intertwined
and this newsgroup has been so unbelievably helpful that I thought I'd post
the question here.

I've got a query which returns a group of records. the field which I want
to display in a list contains many duplicates. I need to remove all
duplicates so that each entry is only displayed once. Another query based
upon a selection from this list will display all of the appropriate
records.

Can anybody help with the syntax? Do I need a loop or is there a MySQL
command/function which I am overlooking?

Thanx,

[PHP] php selecting problem

2003-11-01 Thread Ryan A
Hi,
Is this PHP's or Mysql fault or my own ( most likely)?

I'm doing a simple query to the DB and want any companies which start with a
number as the first letter to come up...

eg:
1company
23blah company
007bonds company
7lucky seven
etc

This is my query:

if($bok==1)
{$query = select compno,thCompany from main_company where thCompany LIKE
'%0123456789%';}

I have looked in the DB and i see quite a few companies have a number in the
beginning, but still this returns me no rowsany ideas why?

Thanks in advance,

You'll want to do a SELECT DISTINCT rather than simply a SELECT for your

SELECT DISTINCT filters out duplicate results from a query.  Hope this

change your logic and put the OR first like this

This way OR only gets added if there is already something in the string

I'm just discovering how I can effectively emulate interfaces using the
object aggregation extension. This is a major benefit to me so I'd like to
know if others are using this extension. It is marked as experimental. Does
that mean the api might change in PHP4? I'm guessing it won't - I do
understand that this extension will be removed in PHP5 but I need this
feature now so I'm looking to make use of it.

Anyone have an opinion regarding how suitable this extension is in a
production environment? I can guarantee that I'll be using at least PHP
version 4.4.3

I think if there comes a time I need to port the application to php5, I'll
be able to replace the aggregation with actual interfaces.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Matt.

I have looked in the DB and i see quite a few companies have a number in the
beginning, but still this returns me no rowsany ideas why?

That query is looking for any record where thCompany includes the text
0123456789 at any point. Compare

LIKE '1%'

and read the chapter on string comparison functions in the MySQL manual.

  Got a line like this in your httpd.conf?

  AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

Yeah. both of these are uncommented in httpd.conf:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
Restarted Apache?  Possibly have another httpd.conf file that Apache is 
reading?  Anything in the error logs when you start Apache?

Inappropirate but intruiging nonetheless.  I've always been curious
how Amazon handles the amount of traffic their site generates and now
I've got a slightly better idea.  I know eBay uses CGI as I've already
seen discussion of it.

Amazon mostly look for people with Perl, C++ and Java over Unix. Typical
example:

Competence in C/C++, Perl, and UNIX is essential. Java is a plus.

Take a look at their job ads.

My guess would be an Oracle database (hence the Java), C++ backend, some
Perl glue around the edges, and a big, big server farm. Of course with a big
distributed application like Amazon, different bits are bound to be written
in different languages.

The net-facing machines claim to be Apache (Stronghold) over Linux, and may
have been Solaris in the past, but that doesn't tell you much.

Their desire for RPC/SOAP experience is probably more about integrating the
supply chain than improving Amazon Web Services.

All guesswork, of course. Pinch of salt advised.

Re: [PHP] deleting characters from strings

I feel really stupid posting this but I can't seem to find the correct
syntax in the language guide. I have a string which has been progressively
built during a FOREACH loop through an array (a SELECT statement in which
the WHERE part is built with ORs from the array of entries). The final
query winds up with an extra OR at the end. I need to simply delete
characters (STRLEN($string) - 3) through STRLEN($string). What's the proper
syntax?

Slightly more sensible approach:

?
$a = array ('1', '2', '3', '4', '5');
$a = implode (' OR ', $a);
echo ($a);
?

Yep. same result.

Possibly. I used the package installer from Marc liyannage's web site 
which seems to have done something odd to the httpd.conf file but I 
don't know enough unix yet to fix it without possibly screwing up. 
there are the following config files in the /private/etc/httpd 
directory:
httpd.conf
httpd.conf.applesaved
httpd.conf.bak
httpd.conf.default
httpd.conf.entropy-backup.1059884513
httpd.conf.entropy-temp

In addition to these, there is another config file named 
httpd.conf.php in the /usr/local/php/ directory

Which one Apache is using is a mystery to me.

Anything in the error logs when you start Apache?
No. this appears to be in order.

Odd.  To be sure it's using the conf file you want, have you tried 
starting Apache with the command.?

/path/to/httpd -f /path/to/httpd.conf

I tried your suggestion but the system won't let me modify it even with 
su permissions. I'm too tired and frustrated to continue tonight. 
Clearly, the installer must have messed something important up so I'm 
just going to reinstall Panther tomorrow (have to partition my drive 
anyway so what the heck)

Thanks for all your help.
