[PHP] File upload issue
Hi all, In my php.ini file, file_uploads value is set to OFF. Hence stopping HTTP_UPLOAD functionlaity. But in my script i am turning it On using ini_set(file_uploads,1) but still it doesn't upload the file. I don have access to modify the php.ini file hence trying to play with script only. Though manual says u can't set the value of file_uploads in the script, but its getting set (looked in phpinfo()). Why this is happening ... and if it is getting set why HTTP_UPLOAD doesn't work.

[PHP] Problem loading fonts in gd()
Hello all PHP gurus
I have a small problem about loading fonts with imageloadfont()
I have copyed fonts with the extension .fon or .ttf to the same directory as
my script, and i give them the font as an argument:
$font = imageloadfont('arial.ttf');
But i just keep getting the message:
Warning: imageloadfont(): Error reading font in c:\program files\apache

Does anyone know how to properly load fonts into gd, without getting this
error message?

[PHP] Checking if a host is online
I'm creating an application for an Intranet that, among other things, is supposed to check to see if particular hosts are online, and if so, what their IP address is.

I also tried to use an external ping command (ping -c 1 $host), and while I could get that to work, since it returns non-zero status if the host can not be contacted, it takes quite a while to execute for even a few hosts at once.

[PHP] Suggestions for optimization?
I'm working on some database search ranking code. It currently
represents 95-98% of the time spent when doing fuzzy seaches. I have
tried my best to optimize my code - algorithmic shortcuts, eliminating
session variables, unsetting irrelevant results, etc and benchmarking
to find the best techniques. That's given me over a 10x improvement.
Unfortunately, because of the number of results it must process (up to
20,000), it is still somewhat slow. I think it could use some code
structure/formating tweaks to eek out that last bit of performance, but
I don't know much about optimizing PHP code in that way. Does anybody
have suggestions?
Also, might there be some tweaks for PHP itself to improve performance?
I already know about the Zend Optimizer and have it installed, it does
help.
Thanks!
Here's my code:
if ($search_results[0][relevancy] == )
{
function cmp($a, $b)
{
if($a[relevancy] $b[relevancy])
{
return 1;
}
elseif($a[relevancy] $b[relevancy])
{
return -1;
}
else
{
return 0;
}
}

$search_position = strpos($value1[$key], $value);
$string_count = substr_count($value1[$key], $value);
$levenshtein = levenshtein($value, $value1[$key], 0.5, 1, 1);

)
{
$metaphone_ratio = 1;
}
elseif ($search_metaphone != 0)
{

Hi Brona, Not only has this been discussed in great detail, it is also a useless argument. Rasmus has already given the definitive stance.

Re: [PHP] completely stumped by ereg()
You should try
var_dump(ereg('C:W', 'C:\\WINNT\\TEMP\tst5B.tmp'));
The reason is that in simple quotes, antislashes don't have to be
escaped. Still, they need to be escaped in a regular epr ie in the first
argument of ereg() (the first and the secon argument are both string,
but in the reakity they are not really the same type)
Why doesn't this match?
var_dump(ereg('C:W', 'C:WINNTTEMP\\tst5B.tmp'));
should print int(1), prints bool(false)

[PHP] Problem in the output of an array
I have this code, I would like, if this could be done ? $array['dim1']['dim2']['dim3'][3] = value; $dim1 = 'dim1'; $dim2 = 'dim2'; $dim3 = 'dim3'; $dim4 = 3; $test = [$dim1][$dim2][$dim3][$dim4]; $result = $array$test; echo $result; ? The output is : Array[dim1][dim2][dim3][3] I need that the output was: value Thanks in advanced for any help.
Re: [PHP] Checking if a host is online
This may be OT but have you looked at Netsaint (http://www.netsaint.org/ and http://www.netsaint.org/indexold.php), now called Nagios (http://www.nagios.org/) by the looks of it. Note: It's not written in PHP from what I remember. You may be able to get some ideas from it or even use it. I've used it in the past to monitor a small web cluster and it worked nicely. Additionally, freshmeat has a bunch of network monitors listed written in PHP. Jason Giangrande wrote: I'm creating an application for an Intranet that, among other things, is supposed to check to see if particular hosts are online, and if so, what their IP address is. Anyone know how I can accomplish this? I tried using exec(host $host); (where $host is the hostname) and while this gets the IP it gets the IP address sometimes even if the host is not active, because a DNS record for the system still exists. I also looked into the gethostbyname() function, but that has similar problems to using the external host command. I also tried to use an external ping command (ping -c 1 $host), and while I could get that to work, since it returns non-zero status if the host can not be contacted, it takes quite a while to execute for even a few hosts at once.

[PHP] move_uploaded_file, umask, and permissions
Hi, all -- I have set my umask to 117 (and I change it when making a directory) and I use move_uploaded_file to handle submitted files. The temporary file is mode 600 when it lands in /var/tmp but somehow gets changed to 666 during the move. It seems that move_uploaded_file changes the file perms and yet does not honor the umask. Must I really run chmod() on every move_uploaded_file() I process? Isn't there a better way?

I have already tried that:
imageloadfont(C:/WINDOWS/Fonts/arial.ttf);
i also tried:
imageloadfont(C:\\WINDOWS\\Fonts\\arial.ttf);
I ALSO tried this:
imageloadfont($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/gd_test.php');
and that didn't work either
So I'm unfortunately still stuck.

If you're using TTF fonts then you should be using imagettftext().

Not a critical bug or a show stopper, but I do still feel it is a bug. -Original Message- From: Rasmus Lerdorf [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 26, 2003 8:55 PM To: Daevid Vincent Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP] BUG: require_once() or die(); = fatal error This code doesn't make much sense. By definition, if require cannot open a file it throws a fatal error, so you would never hit the or case anyway. Hence there is no return code from require and you can't write code like this. If you want to test the return code you need to use 'include' instead. -Rasmus On Wed, 26 Nov 2003, Daevid Vincent wrote: Using PHP 4.2.2 on Linux RH8: In a PHP script run from command line, require_once(gibberator_data.php) or die(No Data file found\n); Causes: [EMAIL PROTECTED] gibberator]# ./gibberator.php br / bFatal error/b: Failed opening required '1' (include_path='.:/php/includes;/usr/share/phpwebtools') in b/home/gibberator/gibberator.php/b on line b13/bbr / However require_once(gibberator_data.php); Works just fine. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
