Re: [PHP] Variable PHP Includes - Is there such a thing?

For example, you might design a standard image banner, followed by a title and subtitle for each page, but you want to change the title to Alaska, Nebraska or Wyoming on each page. Is there a way to do this with PHP? If it has a name, I can search for information online, but I don't even know what to call it. I've played with something of this nature in Dreamweaver. You can design a template that turns out carbon copies of a page, but single out certain items by enclosing them with @@, which are somehow changed on individual pages, or something like that. I can't remember what it's called at the moment. Another strategy would be to use a PHP include to insert an element on different pages, then modify each element with a unique style sheet on each page. But I just wondered if PHP offers additional possibilities for similar experiments.

That way you can put whatever you want as the statenameat the top of your pages, and the header willalways reflect it.

Hotjobs: Enter the Signing Bonus Sweepstakes http://hotjobs.sweepstakes.yahoo.com/signingbonus Hi David You do not need to use a query - if you had a database you could retrieve the state names from there and perhaps save on typing. The code that I gave you does not use a MySQL query at all, although I perhaps could have explained it better. Basically, the situation is like this : If you have two scripts - the main page and the header include file and you include the header script in the main page script, there are no issues of variable scope i.e. all variables within the included script are visible to the including script and vice versa. Therefore if you tell the header script to echo a variable and this variable is defined in the main page script instead of the header script, the header script will have access to this variable. From your part, all you have to be willing to do is set the variable on each main page. I hope this has clarified matters somewhat and not made things worse.

When you have smart quotes on it replaces the ordinary straight quotes with a left specific and right specific quote. To correct this: Go into TOOLSAUTO-CORRECTAUTO-FORMATremove checkmark from replace straight quotes with smart quotes. Also in TOOLSAUTO-CORRECT you must remove the line in AUTO-REPLACE about replacing ... with three dots that are closer together. Once I did that, my problem was solved Thanks to all who have helped today. I appreaciate it!! I'm happy for you :-), but didn't you say you were taking input from visitors? Can you force them to turn smart quotes off? To me it looks like you're pointing out a general problem that anyone might run into: visitors may copy characters into a Web form that are not entirely safe to display in an HTML page. That would be anything except plain ASCII. That would include smart quotes and a lot of accented letters that don't normally occur in English. I haven't thought this through before, but I think the safest thing to do would be to replace thos characters with their HTML entity equivalents at some point before you display them. For the smart quotes, the entities would be lsquo; rsqou; ldquo; and rdquo; Of course, you could replace them with dumb quotes instead, but the smart quotes look better. That's why MS word and other word processors do what they do. BEFORE I changed these two Word settings, when writing to the database, the ord() (ordinate) value for the left quote was 147 and the right quote was 148. When being retrieved from the database, the ord() (ordinate) value for the left quote was 17 and the right quote was 19. Thanks again to everyone who offered help!

Re: [PHP][PEAR] PEAR::DB_Common::nextId()
Alessandro Vitale wrote: I would like to get the last insert id... anyone has some experience in using the PEAR::DB_Common::nextId() ? Yes. You have a PEAR DB object $db, and you do: $id = $db-nextID('Documents'); $db-query(INSERT INTO Documents (id,title,text) VALUES ($id,'Title','Text')); The confusing thing about this is the fact that Documents in the two lines don't necessarily have anything to do with each other. The first is the name of a sequence, the other is the name of a table. They're just both called 'Documents'. What happens, and I believe this isn't described in the documentation, is that PEAR DB stores the current ID of the Documents sequence in a separate table called Documents_seq: mysql select * from Documents_seq; +-+ | id | +-+ | 200 | +-+ So it's a completely different mechanism than using mysql_insert_id(). In fact, it might be a better idea to have just one sequence and generate IDs for all tables from that: $id = $db-nextID('Sequence'); $db-query(INSERT INTO Documents (id,title,text) VALUES ($id,'Title','Text')); $id = $db-nextID('Sequence'); $db-query(INSERT INTO Users (id,username...)

My goal is to create an order form sort of thing were a certain quantity of each item is specified, and the final step is creating the invoice with the grand total is tabulated, etc, etc. I know this is standard stuff, my immediate question is more specific. I need some direction in creating the html form where the items are selected. As it stands now, I have six digit ID numbers that identify each item. The first digit represents the general class of items and the second digit represents a sub-class. The remaining four are arbitrary. What I would like is for the user to 1)pick the class, see the available sub-classes 2)pick the subclass, see the items available 3)pick the item 4)pick quantity If anybody can point me to a tutorial or examples, I would be most appreciative.

[PHP] Junk Mail from this List?
I'm using Mozilla Thunderbird 0.7 to view and post to this news group, so I don't know if that has anything to do with this, but, after just posting a few messages to the list, I've received a bunch of what I consider spam to my e-mail address. The spam doesn't consist of advertisements but of acknowledgements of receiving my inquiries or support requests. The addresses responding to me (or to undisclosed recipients) include: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have not sent any other messages from this e-mail address or used it to sign up for anything else (I just created the address, actually). So, I assume that these messages are some sort of bouncebacks from my posts.

[PHP] Dynamic Forms
Can anyone suggest a PHP solution to creating a form that gets built after a client enters a variable? For example: an automobile insurance form that first asks how many cars you have, and then creates a form with fields for car 1, car 2, etc. I have found JavaScript code that will do this, but I would rather use a server side language like PHP for more consistency and browser compatibility.

There's no real trick to it. You can have as many mysql_query() calls as you want. You probably just need to check that you're assigning the result of it to a unique variable each time and not overwriting results or rows from previous queries. Post your code if you want, but your error means your query is failing or you're using the wrong variable in one of the mysql_fetch_*() functions.

[PHP] Multiple drop downs
Hi All, I am converting a page from asp that is using several drop down lists. Each list contains part of the product list based on the product type. At the moment it is making a connection to the db and populating a list using the product type, closing the connection, then re-opening for another list. I can see that populating those drop downs like this is going to cause me tremendous problems in the future. I know there is an easier way to do this. I wish I could think of it right now. any assistance would be appreciated. alex hogan ** The contents of this e-mail and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom it is addressed.

[PHP] best paractice example page creation php / mysql
Hi, One of the sections in the site I'm developing is a training section. Within this section there are sub sections which each need the option of having multiple examples added. Each example will be made up of 2 sections a UL list and a 2 column table with a title and intro as well. The way I was thinking of doing this was to have 3 tables: training_subsections training_list_items training_table_items Then once a training sub section has been added into the system they can then add example pages. With this current setup I was thinking I'd ask the user how many list items and how many table items they want for this item (I will add the option to add more at a later date if nessecary) and then build the form on the fly from these 2 figures. My problem is, is it a 'reccomended' way of doing things to query the db multiple times for each new list_item and table_item in one go ??? I could just have an examples table with say 10 list_item columns and 10 x 2 table columns but that seems like a short cut really and leaves no room for scaleability. Any thoughts ??

[PHP] Random(?) blank pages when using sessions
I'm using non-cookie-based sessions for authentication on a page. The session is set like so, which works (these values, along with the SID, are always retrievable): $_SESSION['user'] = $_POST['UserName']; $_SESSION['time'] = time(); My problem is when I get to the protected site area, in which a header script calls session_start() at the top (first line). Seemingly randomly, while navigating links within this area, I get blank white pages. If I comment out the session_start() line, it doesn't happen. If I spit out the session variables in the resulting page, they are echoed, but that's it -- it's a blank white page otherwise. The apache error log is silent, and the access log is normal. No php errors are displayed or written to the log. Here's the real kicker -- if I refresh the page, it loads correctly. What is going on?

[PHP] Re: PHP Includes and Echoes in Head Sections and Search Engines
hi Very simple problems, good to see ur getting the hang of it :) the first is, you have defined your variables after you include the page, so that the echo is outputting a blank variable... so instead of: ?php include (../../../../includes/state/head.php); ? meta name=mssmarttagspreventparsing content=true / ?php include (../../../../includes/javascript.php); ? ?php include (../../../../includes/stylesheets.php); ? ?php $statename = 'Alaska'; $postcode = 'ak'; $linkcode = 'world/na/us/ak'; ? make it ?php $statename = 'Alaska'; $postcode = 'ak'; $linkcode = 'world/na/us/ak'; php include (../../../../includes/state/head.php); echo 'meta name=mssmarttagspreventparsing content=true /'; include (../../../../includes/javascript.php); include (../../../../includes/stylesheets.php); \? i just changed the opening and closing tags a little (you didnt need so many) but the main change is, now the variables come before the included file, so that the include file can access those variables too. echo's will work anywhere inside a ?php tag so, it will always output something to the screen no problems with search engines, if you use the meta tags and stuff u usually use, itll work fine javascript, stylesheets and stuff... the only thing to remember is all the stylesheet files, and javascript files are relative to the final page location, not to the include file location, but other than that its the same as normal hope that clears it up a bit :) -- Luke Freedomware [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm having a blast with PHP includes and echo functions; I never dreamed they could be so simple and effective.

Re: [PHP] Where is the mistace? Warning: ftp_put(): 'STOR ' not understood.
hmm, well that sure is strange. cuz here http://au3.php.net/ftp_put someone got it working...ahh i see, they used FTP_ASCII, so its the default anyways...hmmm might be a bug, because FTP_BINARY is just a constant, so it has a numerical value, (eg 2003 (i dont think thats it)) but in theory ftp_put($conn_ftp,$picuploadname ,$piclocalname , FTP_BINARY); should be the same as ftp_put($conn_ftp,$picuploadname ,$piclocalname , 2003); so i duno :/ -- Luke Jay Blanchard [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] [snip] That shouldnt matter, because FTP_BINARY is a constant, and therfore has a numeric, or string value. The only way FTP_BINARY would become a physical string is if there was quotes around it. As for the problem, are you sure you have the right connection open, because the error (STOR not understood) sounds like you mat not have connected to a valid FTP server? possibly or permissions? [/snip] If you put quotes around FTP_BINARY in the function like this ftp_put($conn_ftp,$picuploadname ,$piclocalname , FTP_BINARY); ...it will fail. The expected behaviour is that ftp_put will silently default to ASCII mode. The same happens if you put FTP_BINARY in a variable.

[PHP] Imap function problems
Hello All, I am having some strange problems -- code I tested a while back has broken and I'm not sure why. I am receiving an email with an attachment (testing.doc). when I get the message I call imap_fetchstructure then check the length of the parts array, which is one. It used to always be (at least) two if their were attachments and zero otherwise. Now it is one and the file information (name, etc) is no where to be found. There is a new entry in the message structures parameters array named BOUNDARY, with the boundary value. If I call imap_fetchbody with a body part number of two then I get the body of the attachment but, can't get the name, etc. Any ideas? Running PHP 4.3.x Calling print_r on the message structure returns stdClass Object ( [type] = 1 [encoding] = 0 [ifsubtype] = 1 [subtype] = MIXED [ifdescription] = 0 [ifid] = 0 [bytes] = 27074 [ifdisposition] = 0 [ifdparameters] = 0 [ifparameters] = 1 [parameters] = Array ( [0] = stdClass Object ( [attribute] = BOUNDARY [value] = =_NextPart_000_000D_01C3DB7A.5BC1DAB0 ) ) [parts] = Array ( [0] = stdClass Object ( [type] = 0 [encoding] = 0 [ifsubtype] = 1 [subtype] = PLAIN [ifdescription] = 0 [ifid] = 0 [bytes] = 16 [ifdisposition] = 0 [ifdparameters] = 0 [ifparameters] = 1 [parameters] = Array ( [0] = stdClass Object ( [attribute] = CHARSET [value] = iso-8859-1 ) ) ) ) ) TIA, Daryl -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

That way you know which example you're dealing with and can bring back all of the sub sections accordingly, linking in the list and table items.

[PHP] Re: PHP Includes and Echoes in Head Sections and Search Engines
i just changed the opening and closing tags a little (you didnt need so many) but the main change is, now the variables come before the included file, so that the include file can access those variables too. Holy cow, this gets simpler all the time. Pretty soon, there'll be nothing left on my page but PHP includes and echo functions! Does this cut down on a website's file size? In other words, are the php includes effectively inactive when no one's viewing your main pages, leaving them empty of the included pages? Here's another question. I'm replacing the ../ URL prefixes with the echo name $periods, so I can use these includes in pages on several levels, such as geobop/one and geobop/one/two, simply replacing $periods with ../../ or ../../../. Below is some code from my include page: link href=?php echo $periods ?css/a1.css rel=stylesheet type=text/css / link href=?php echo $periods ?css/MIDDLE.css rel=stylesheet type=text/css / link href=?php echo $periods ?css/na/rockies.css rel=stylesheet type=text/css / But suppose there's a certain page where I don't want the style sheet in the middle - the one I named MIDDLE. Is there a way to mark it in the include page, then instruct the main page to either not import it or replace it with nothing ()?
