[PHP] Downloading a part of a file
Hi all, Please tell me how can I fetch an html document from a web page, let's say starting from the character 1000, and get the text until the caracter 5000. In fact, I want to use the GET or POST method, and to also send to the server the HTTP header: Range: bytes=1000-5000 Thanks.

[PHP] Convert Smart Quotes to Sraight Quotes - Need Help!
I've been reading for the last three days about character encodings and such, but, have still been unable to figure out what I think should be a simple solution. All I want to do is take curly or smart quotes that have been pasted or entered into a form field and convert those into straight quotes () before I store the text in my database. It appears the data passed from the form to my PHP script is encoded as Unicode. My version of MySQL does not support Unicode character encoding, so, I need to convert that into Latin1 (or ISO-8859-1). When I use iconv() to translate the data that contains curly quotes, the string gets chopped off at the very first curly quote and the rest of the string is lost. This is the command I am using: $var = iconv(UTF-8, ISO-8859-1, $var); When I use utf8_decode(), I at least get the whole string back, but, all the curly quotes and apostrophes are turned into ? question marks. So, I presume there must be some way to convert those curly quotes into straight ASCII quotes while the text is still in Unicode format, before I run this through either iconv() or utf8_decode(). But, I've searched all over for two days and can't figure out how to accomplish this. I'd really appreciate someone's help with this! It's driving me nuts!!

Hi all,
yeah, i know, i did do quite a bit of searching but I just cant find it...
Does anyone have the regex to make sure an http address is full and without
error? like http://www.example.com
http://www.php.net/parse_url should do what you require. If all you want to
do is filter out the different parts of the url and check if they exist or
not.
Consider what you'd mark as a full url, do you want to accept ftp://
and such links as well.. quite generic, I'd go for smth like:
/^([a-z]+):\/\/(([\w\.]+)\.([a-z]{2,3}))(:(\d+))?(\/.*)?$/
Which would give you:
Array
(
[0] = ftp://www.example.com.com.uk:88/something/to/remember
[1] = ftp
[2] = www.example.com.com.uk
[3] = www.example.com.com
[4] = uk
[5] = :88
[6] = 88
[7] = /something/to/remember
)
Here're seme things I didn't take into account:
* double dots (www...example..com)
* double slashes (www.example.com//asdfasf//asdfasf)
* check for protocol validity, might wanna change the first part to
(ftp|http|chrome|.. any protocol you want to accept)
* I left everything after the first slash completely to the
imagination of your input data - this can contain pretty much anything
anyways
* login details (user:[EMAIL PROTECTED])
If you want to have a full regex that is really complete, check out:
http://www.foad.org/~abigail/Perl/url3.pl, and execute it .. (linked

[PHP] Dynamic Class Methods
I'm trying to setup a function from user code inside a defined object or a
class definition but it doesnt seem to work. Am i doing it right? Is there
something i need to know... is it even possible?
I know create_function can be used to create a function and it returns the
ident to run the function later on, lookup create_function on php.net and it
seems possible. Now i wonder if you can actually assign this function inside
a class. My final goal is to create a set of functions or objects that will
be able to implement interfaces to object classes, which is something

RE: [PHP] Re: Unable to open word document.
Another thing to keep in mind is that Office products can run
invisible. Sometimes you'll get COM failures and can't understand why
and it turns out that Word or Excel or whatever is still running, just
not visible. Pull up your Task Manager and look for the process and
kill it.
The property in VBA is applicationobjectname.Visible = True (or
False)
I forget the exact syntax for PHP, but you get the idea.
There's also a .UserControl T/F property that tells the application
whether it's allowed to auto-close when the COM call is done or if it
needs to stay open for the user to manipulate. TRUE means to stay open
(even if it's not visible).

First of all, I must say that from PHP5, the php (zend) engine does
support interfaces and implementing interfaces. So, maybe that's what
you're looking for... Anyway, now let's go on to helping you out with
your question.
Your approach is impossible. I'm stuck with the same thing, trying to
get the function name from a constant.. but there is a very nice way
of dealing with this. If you're running php5, it plainly works.
Earlier versions will need the (experimental) overload
(http://nl2.php.net/manual/en/ref.overload.php) function..
?php
class Obj {
var $gen = Array();
function registerFunction($name, $args, $imp) {
$this-gen[$name] = create_function($args, $imp);
}
function __call($n, $args) {
call_user_func_array(Array($this, $this-gen[$n]), $args);
}
}
?
after a registerFunction call, you can call your function as you'd
expect to call it. Everything I just wrote is untested, but I'm pretty
sure it'll work - safe for maybe some typo's.
have fun!

Re: [PHP] Multi-User Text-Editing
Okay, i got the general idea, now it all comes down to the actual
writing. I'm making a function that compares two strings (the one in the
source i read used an exec() call, but i'd like to do it all in PHP)
per-line. This poses some difficulties. Here's the scenario:
I want to determine whether or not two lines are identical.
If they're not:
- Has the line simply been edited?
- Is it a completely new line?
- Has the line been deleted?
To do so i'll have to run a loop, checking each line. But here's where
the problem is:
?php
$str1 = NEWTXT
Once there was a Bar
It was red
It had some Foo
Underneath its Foobar
NEWTXT;
$str2 = OLDTXT
Once there was a Bar
It had some Foo
Underneath its Foobar
OLDTXT;
$arr1 = explode('\n', $str1);
$arr2 = explode('\n', $str2);
$count = 0;
foreach ($arr1 as $line_num = $line) {
if (isset($arr2[$count] ($line === $arr2[$count]))) {
echo Unchanged \ . $line . \\n;
} elseif ($line !== $arr2[$count]) {
echo Changed to \ . $line . \ from \ . $arr2[$count] .
\\n;
} elseif (!isset($arr2[$count])) {
echo Added \ . $line . \, was . $arr2[$count] . \\n;
}
$count++;
}
?
Then i'd get something like this:
Unchanged Once there was a Bar
Changed to It was red from It had some Foo
Changed to It had some Foo from Underneath its Foobar
Added Underneath its Foobar
Where the second, third and fourth line is wrong - i added a line
between There was a Bar and It had some Foo...
How should i do this?

Jorge,
can you supply somewhat more information on what you're doing? Where
do you set the $_SESSION['id'] value? Do you make a call to
session_start() on the page where you set $_SESSION['id']?
(though, from the look of this post - the problem is probably the use
of a capital I in Id instead of a lowercase one. Case mangling is a
very common error ..)
(also, I'd advise you to use the somewhat more elegant ?php
header('Location: http://www.domain.com/path/to/portada.php');
exit(0); ? way of redirecting.)

Add something that goes to the next line in one file and stays on the
same line in the other whenver an addition is found - and use
http://nl2.php.net/manual/en/function.levenshtein.php or
http://nl2.php.net/manual/en/function.similar-text.php instead of !=
to see if a line has changed. I've never used it myself, but the
return value gives you a number indicating how different the strings
are. If they're very different AND the number of lines is not equal
you know for almost sure it's an addition.
Have fun finding the difference!

Keep in mind the above is still in beta, but will allow you to
add/remove/redefine methods of objects at runtime. iirc it works
with php4 and php5.
The other option would be to set a variable within a class that the
method b() uses:
class impl_a {
var $_b;
function setFunc($func, $params, $code) {
$var = _$func; /* set up $this-varname */
$this-$var = create_function($params, $code);
}
function b() {
$func = $this-_b;
$func();
}
}
$a = new impl_a();
$a-setFunc('b', '', 'echo hello world');
$a-b();
Its Not very clean solution, but might work in you situation.

Re: [PHP] Multi-User Text-Editing
Okay, i got the general idea, now it all comes down to the actual writing. I'm making a function that compares two strings (the one in the source i read used an exec() call, but i'd like to do it all in PHP) per-line. This poses some difficulties. Here's the scenario: Tavi Wiki just calls out to the diff command using exec(), which is a lazy way of doing it. The wiki at c2.com does this too. Not sure what mediawiki (Raditha's suggestion) does. If you want to implement your own version of diff in PHP, you can start at the explanation here: http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?DiffAlgorithm Also there is this: http://pear.php.net/package/Text_Diff - 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
[PHP] Re: array_merge changed behaviour in Php5??
I don't get it, this is a real problem for me. This is a backward
incompatibility that brakes a lot of things.
You are allways whining about not being able to change the strange
parameters from functions due to backwards incompatibility. There a
simple alias function would do the trick, and make things better and for
new programers much more logical.
But now you do something like this, that makes absolutetly no sense to me.
And your doku at the given site is wrong, because I could live with a
warning, but I cannot live with an empty array due to an array merge.
Instead of:
array_merge() was changed to accept only arrays. If a non-array variable
is passed, a E_WARNING will be thrown for every such parameter. Be
careful because your code may start emitting E_WARNING out of the blue.
It should say:
array_merge() was changed to accept only arrays. If a non-array variable
is passed, a E_WARNING will be thrown for every such parameter and your
resulting array will be empty. Be careful because your code may start
emitting E_WARNING out of the blue and all of them will result in an
empty array.
Can you at least explain me why it has been changed, before I go and
change 150 lines of code, please?
Yours Sincerely

Hi,
I came across a strange behaviour in array_merge since I installed php5.
I merge three arrays, one of them can be empty. So not an array at all.
In php 4.3.6 that I had before, there was no warning and the two first
arrays were merged. In php5 on the other hand, there is a warning and
my array is empty.
Is this behaviour wanted? Or is this just me having this problem?
I find it pretty ugly, either there is more than a warning, or at
least the first two arrays should be merged and given back.
$array_1 = array('key1'='oranges','key2'='apples');
$array_2 = array('key3'='pears','key4'='tomatoes');
$array_3 = null;
$arr_gemerged = array_merge($array_1,$array_2,$array_3);
print_r($arr_gemerged);
Result on php4:
Array ( [key1] = oranges [key2] = apples [key3] = pears [key4] =
tomatoes )
Result on php5:
Warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #3 is not an
array in
/Library/WebServer/Documents/regis24/admin/test_array_merge.php on line 7
I would define this behaviour as backwards incompatible. How about you?

Re: [PHP] Re: array_merge changed behaviour in Php5??
Can you at least explain me why it has been changed, before I go and change 150 lines of code, please? Yours Sincerely Sebastian Sebastian, Version 5 is what you would call a Major Version change. This is like comparing MySQL 4.x to MySQL 3.x. An insert statement that would result in duplicate keys used to issue a warning and would be skipped in a batch - now it issues a fatal error halting the batch. Using a new feature like on duplicate key update or REPLACE INTO ... is the better way to go if you want to explicitly ignore duplicates. This comparison is only meant as an example to explain why changes are made. With PHP 5 there are many fixes and small changes like this. To many, allowing non array values in array_merge() might seem like a mis-feature. To you it is obviously a problem. Many people would argue that you should have declared your array before hand to avoid this problem. This is why major versions are released early while the older major version is still supported like Apache 1.3.x VS. Apache 2.0.x and PHP 4.3.x VS. PHP 5.0.x. Some modifications to existing code are expected; hence the migration documentation. I can certainly understand your frustration as can many others, however, this is an anticipated (and documented) issue.

Re: [PHP] Dynamic Class Methods
* Alex Hogan [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Keep in mind the above is still in beta, but will allow you to add/remove/redefine methods of objects at runtime. You'll have to excuse me form my ignorance, but why would you want to add, remove or redefine methods of objects at runtime? I understand object overloading, but are you talking about something else? I can think of some good reasons -- the one that readily leaps to mind is a plugin architecture. In perl, you have namespaces, and multiple files can share the same namespace. This is handy because it allows you to separate classes over multiple files, and also to dynamically add methods/properties to your class when needed. For instance, let's say you have a base class that has the following methods: init() run() load_config() Now, you could easily extend the class and add new methods, of course; that's worked in PHP OOP since the beginning. But what if you end up with three subclasses, each adding methods as follows: Sub1::error() Sub2::validate() Sub3::login() The problem arises when you want to get a combination of these subclasses for a single class; how do you do it without creating a new class? For instance, if I need an object that has the methods of the base class, plus error() and validate(), how do I do it without making a fourth subclass that duplicates the methods of Sub1 and Sub2? As I mentioned above, this is (fairly) trivial to do in perl, as you can have them use the same namespace and dynamically import methods from other files into your class. How does one do the same in PHP? I think the overloading introduced in PHP5 *may* help -- you could look to see if a file with a name matching the method called exists, load it into a variable, and then add a function dynamically. I'd need to test something like this pretty rigorously, though. -- Matthew Weier O'Phinney | mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Webmaster and IT Specialist | http://www.garden.org National Gardening Association| http://www.kidsgardening.com 802-863-5251 x156 | http://nationalgardenmonth.org -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

RE: [PHP] remote script execution
Ignoring PHP for a moment; to execute a string of commands on a remote machine using ssh you would execute the following; Promptssh -l user ps -ef|grep edit;cd /usr/local/bin;ls -la Which would result in showing any edit processes, followed by a listing of the contents of the /usr/local/bin directory. Notice that I did not include a password (this is not needed if the two servers have already exchanged security keys), and as near as I know, cannot be supplied unless you are there to type it in on a tty type device, so be sure to get the keys setup properly. You will also need the client program ssh installed on the originating machine, and the daemon sshd installed on the remote machine, but then you probably knew that ;-) In PHP simply; $cmd = ssh -l user \ps -ef|grep edit;cd /usr/local/bin;ls -la; $rtn = exec($cmd, $responselines); http://us4.php.net/manual/en/function.exec.php $responselines is now an array containing lines of output from the commands.

Usually it faults after d/ling about 210 files (it varies), but I've seen it go as high as 290. Its actually made it all the way through the script once today, but seg faults most of them time. OK. Sounds like a genuine segfault to me. The CLI version will simply print Segmentation fault to the screen or Segmentation fault (core dumped) when configured with debugging enabled. You will need to recompile and install PHP with the --enable-debug option. If you compiled from source you can usually go to your source tree and run ./config.nice --enable-debug make make install You need to have gdb installed (most likely, you already do). Since you are running a CLI script this will be super easy. This is the best way to go about it IMHO with your particular problem: At the prompt type: $ gdb php This will fire up the debugger and give you a prompt like so: (gdb). Type the following at the gdb prompt: (gdb) run /path/to/crashing/script.php This will run the application and will produce some kind of message indicating that there was a segfault like so Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. In the example below it was clearly mysqli_read_property() that caused the problem. Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. [Switching to Thread 16384 (LWP 17763)] 0x080d9e48 in mysqli_read_property (object=0x83b8184, member=0x83b5fb0, type=0) at /usr/local/src/php/php-5.0.1/ext/mysqli/mysqli.c:204 204 if (!obj-ptr || Once you receive a message like that, type the following at the gdb prompt: (gdb) bt This will produce a backtrace with one instruction per line with the last instruction at the top of the list. Alternately, if you run your code in CLI mode, and it segfaults, a file called core will be created in the directory you are working in. You can perform the same task using the core file like by running the following command: (replace /usr/local/bin/php with the path to your php executable) $ gdb /usr/local/bin/php /path/to/core Then type bt at the (gdb) prompt. The problem with running gdb and bt is that you have to have an intimate understanding of the PHP source code to get anything more than just a hint about the problem. If you can reproduce the segfault and capture a backtrace consistently you might have found a PHP bug. *Most* segfaults are caused by bugs since PHP is interpreted. What to do: If any of the output from gdb give you a hint what the problem could be (ftp functions or something) research each of the functions you are using on the PHP site reading the user added comments. Look for any mention of a possible segfault. Search the PHP bugs on http://bugs.php.net for your PHP version using the name of the function and/or the name of the commands in the backtrace. Chances are someone has already found the bug and there may be a workaround or the problem has been fixed in CVS or in a newer version (in your case PHP 4.3.9RC2). If you can't find anything relating to your problem on PHP.net, bugs.php.net, or google then you should follow the proceedure for reporting bugs on http://bugs.php.net/ . It's a thankless job, but it helps everyone out in the long run if done properly. It will be much appreciated if you follow the above steps and include sample code and gdb information when submitting a bug. Leave it to the real pros to read the backtrace output! :-) Good luck, Jim Grill -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] Re: Convert Smart Quotes to Sraight Quotes - Need Help!
Anyone! I'm out of online resources and answers. I guess this isn't possible to do... I've been reading for the last three days about character encodings and such, but, have still been unable to figure out what I think should be a simple solution. All I want to do is take curly or smart quotes that have been pasted or entered into a form field and convert those into straight quotes () before I store the text in my database. It appears the data passed from the form to my PHP script is encoded as Unicode. My version of MySQL does not support Unicode character encoding, so, I need to convert that into Latin1 (or ISO-8859-1). When I use iconv() to translate the data that contains curly quotes, the string gets chopped off at the very first curly quote and the rest of the string is lost. This is the command I am using: $var = iconv(UTF-8, ISO-8859-1, $var); When I use utf8_decode(), I at least get the whole string back, but, all the curly quotes and apostrophes are turned into ? question marks. So, I presume there must be some way to convert those curly quotes into straight ASCII quotes while the text is still in Unicode format, before I run this through either iconv() or utf8_decode(). But, I've searched all over for two days and can't figure out how to accomplish this. I'd really appreciate someone's help with this! It's driving me nuts!!

The directory structure that Curt pointed out earlier suggests that libxpm was not built - only untarred in to that location. libxpm has a rather strange build and install process as documented here: http://koala.ilog.fr/lehors/xpm-README.html Alternatively, you may be able to find a dev package for X11 that will include a libxpm library made for your system. The problem is that libxpm will not run out of the box. There is a build process that must be followed to build the library for your system architecture.

(i apologize for the direct reply copy of this message, I'm still getting used to gmail) I've seen the readme before, and it specifies: On Linux, if you do not use ELF yet you'd better get the binary distribution available from sunsite. Because it's really a pain to build a shared lib and the current XPM distribution doesn't contain the jump files you would need to do so. On the other hand people have had no problems building it using ELF. I have no idea what ELF is, nor do I know what imake is.

Because it's really a pain to build a shared lib and the current XPM distribution doesn't contain the jump files you would need to do so. On the other hand people have had no problems building it using ELF. I have no idea what ELF is, nor do I know what imake is. So I downloaded the binary distribution, which is what is installed in that -linux directory. paul -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Dinamic generate PDF : which way ? (classes, docbook)
Thanks. I'll check it out. My main concern is that what seems great about using those php classes to generate the pdf directly is the possibilite to pull data from mysql (or other db) and generate an up-to-date report. But since this is not the case seems a lot of work just to generate a simple table. I don't work with docbook yet so it can be a wrong feeling but seems easier to train a person which already uses HTML to code using docbook's tags than teach php/class. Specially if what I want does not involve fancy features. - rt On Mon, 6 Sep 2004 09:39:34 -0700, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello Robert, I would suggest that if your data is such that it can use DocBook, definitely go the DocBook route. You can also use Apache's Cocoon publish your DocBook content to PDF/HTML/RTF/SVG/TXT etc. Here are some samples that use Apache Cocoon to perform dynamic conversion to PDF/HTML: http://www.xml-dev.com/blog/#88 Here are some other utilities to convert to PDF: http://www.xml-dev.com/blog/#101 This one is pretty good: http://html2pdf.seven49.net/seven49.aspx?

Sometimes they only differ by the name of the company so my first attempt would be to generate templates in word and ask/replace for the values needed. I am evaluating the http://www.ros.co.nz/pdf/, www.fpdf.org and php classes that generate pdf and as another option use docbook to convert. I am not sure which way is better. From my point of view: a) Both classes seem to be fine but in order to generate (static) tables and other elements I will need a lot of programming calls/variables. So I'd have a manual and perhaps tedious/error procedure to convert the document into the programable-version of it. b) I do not have experience with DocBook (even tough I can code html and latex) but I could use an editor to generate the document with the tables, place images etc. Identify the template variables and call docbook to generate the pdf. I'd still have to manually convert the file but would not need a lot of calls to generate a table or even use a php programmer. I am assuming the the tags needed are more easly understanded than $pdf-addCell($data,width..)

[PHP] array
I'm reading data. Can I open a connection within a connection and write data to
another $db.$table or do I have to write my data to an array. In an array, how do I do
this?
I've looked at array_push, but don't think this is what I want?
$authors = array();
array_push($singleauthor,$mydata-id);
I've been reading http://ca3.php.net/manual/en/function.array-push.php

Re: [PHP] Intermittent Seg Fault with PHP4.3.8 + FTP
On Tue, 7 Sep 2004, Jim Grill wrote: If any of the output from gdb give you a hint what the problem could be (ftp functions or something) research each of the functions you are using on the PHP site reading the user added comments. Look for any mention of a possible segfault. Search the PHP bugs on http://bugs.php.net for your PHP version using the name of the function and/or the name of the commands in the backtrace. Chances are someone has already found the bug and there may be a workaround or the problem has been fixed in CVS or in a newer version (in your case PHP 4.3.9RC2). If you can't find anything relating to your problem on PHP.net, bugs.php.net, or google then you should follow the proceedure for reporting bugs on http://bugs.php.net/ . It's a thankless job, but it helps everyone out in the long run if done properly. It will be much appreciated if you follow the above steps and include sample code and gdb information when submitting a bug. Leave it to the real pros to read the backtrace output! Just to back this up, if you submit a bug report with a good backtrace (one from a non-stripped PHP, you don't necessarily need to recompile using enable-debug) the bug is 90% fixed. Reproducable segfaults on Unix are actually quite trivial to fix. Getting the clean backtrace is usually more work than fixing the actual bug. Thanks for the good explanation there Jim. -Rasmus -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Re: Convert Smart Quotes to Sraight Quotes - Need Help!
Are you certain these curly quotes are actually coming in and not being munged by the client sending them? If they are coming in, and they are actually in Unicode, which unicode sequence are they represented by. If you could save the raw data you are getting to a file and make that file available we might have a chance at helping you here. -Rasmus On Tue, 7 Sep 2004, Monty wrote: Anyone! I'm out of online resources and answers. I guess this isn't possible to do... I've been reading for the last three days about character encodings and such, but, have still been unable to figure out what I think should be a simple solution. All I want to do is take curly or smart quotes that have been pasted or entered into a form field and convert those into straight quotes () before I store the text in my database. It appears the data passed from the form to my PHP script is encoded as Unicode. My version of MySQL does not support Unicode character encoding, so, I need to convert that into Latin1 (or ISO-8859-1). When I use iconv() to translate the data that contains curly quotes, the string gets chopped off at the very first curly quote and the rest of the string is lost. This is the command I am using: $var = iconv(UTF-8, ISO-8859-1, $var); When I use utf8_decode(), I at least get the whole string back, but, all the curly quotes and apostrophes are turned into ? question marks. So, I presume there must be some way to convert those curly quotes into straight ASCII quotes while the text is still in Unicode format, before I run this through either iconv() or utf8_decode(). But, I've searched all over for two days and can't figure out how to accomplish this. I'd really appreciate someone's help with this! It's driving me nuts!!
