Re: [PHP] [NEWBIE] Trying to create a function from an existing script
Jon,
As recommended before, I have added global $HTTP_POST_FILES; to my
function. The upload directory has a permission setting of 777 and the
directory specified ends in a slash.I don't know what the server logs
say, however, as I don't know where they are or how to check them. I am,
after all, a PHP newbie.
But I should mention that the script works perfectly when I use this
syntax:
if( copy($HTTP_POST_FILES['upfile']['tmp_name'],$store_dir.
imagefile.jpg)
However, I wanted to change it to use move_uploaded_file() instead
of copy() because Marek suggested it would be more secure that way.
So because the script stops working when I switch copy() for
move_uploaded_file(), I feel it's a safe bet that the error is somehow
in the syntax of the move_uploaded_file() command.
Again, for reference, here is the whole if() statement:
if(move_uploaded_file($_HTTP_POST_FILES['upfile']['tmp_name'],rawurlencode($store_dir.
imagefile.jpg)))
{
echo(Uploaded .$HTTP_POST_FILES['upfile']['name']. successfully.);
}
// If the copy function fails output a message.
else
{
echo(Upload of .$HTTP_POST_FILES['upfile']['name']. to
.$store_dir. failed.);
}

Re: [PHP] mysql_pconnect / persistent database conections
Ben Edwards wrote: Been meaning to investigate persistent database connections for a while. Coming from a rdbms background (oracle with a bit of whatcom sqlanywhare) I have always felt that the overhead of opening a connection at the beginning of each page was a little resource intensive. MySQL is not remotely the same beast as oracle - take pure session create times. I have a machine that runs both. Creating an oracle session with sqlplus command line takes in the region of 2 seconds (get around this for web apps by connection pooling). Creating a mysql connection (c client) takes in the region of 5 mS. You also need to consider the memory / processor implications of caching connections (or keeping persistent connections) from your web server. Anyway, I found mysql_pconnect and this sounds like just the ticket. Seems that I can just change my connect method from mysql_connect to mysql_pconnect and it will just work. I do have a couple of questions. Firstly what is the story with mysql_close. There is no mysql_pclose. I guess you don't need to close the connection at the end of each page but what if you do. Is mysql_close ignored if the connection was made with mysql_pconnect or douse it close the connection and next time mysql_pconnect is run it reconnects causing no benefit over mysql_pconnect. also what is the timeout likely to be? My other question is what happens if lots of people connect using the same user/password. I tend to do my own user management so everybody douse. Is doing my own user management really dodge, if we were talking about oracle I would probably say it is.

[PHP] PHP5 Class problem
I'm using PHP 5.0.3 and if a problem if a class method. I'm initializing a
class like that:
$o_SessionHandler = new SessionHandler();
var_dump($o_SessionHandler-getOrgSession());exit;
Now it get the error message:
Fatal error: Using $this when not in object context
in /srv/www/htdocs/SessionHandler.class.php on line 68
I try to debug that but that looks like a bug in the parser. The class looks
like that:
?php
//-- interface for SessionHandler Class
interface SessionHandlerI
{
//-- functions
static public function checkTime();
static public function checkSession();
static public function defineVar();
static public function getVar();
static public function isLogined();

}
//-- define SessionHandler Class
class SessionHandler implements SessionHandlerI
{
//-- define var that keeps the original Session alive
private $a_session_org;
//-- initialize function
public function SessionHandler()
{
$this-a_session_org = $_SESSION;
}
//-- function that checks how long the user don't do something

{
//-- check if time var exists

{
//-- check the time differents

//-- check if the user is logined based on the session
static public function isLogined(){}
//-- returns the original login
static public function getOrgSession()
{
//-- return var
return $this-a_session_org;
}
}
The getOrgSession() function is inside of a class so the $this should be
avaible...
any ideas?

$this is defined only if the following 2 things are true.
1. you are calling the method on a object
(i.e. not as a static call like SessionHandler::getOrgSession())
2. the function (method) you are calling is _NOT_ defined as static.
in your case you have defined all your methods as static so the
engine will not make $this available even if you call the method/function
on an instantiated object.
solution - remove 'static' from the function definitions that you wish
to use $this in.
any ideas?

[PHP] Best way to execute actions within a class
I have been building a lightweight PHP4 based, hopefully PHP5 OO structure where each page or php file contains its own class which is then executed using the constructor like so new SomeProject_SomeSubProject(); within the subclasses contructor I then call a method called start which is in a base class called Page which is extended from the main project class called SomeProject. Within start it calls a method to check action page get uri's ie ?action=view , what i used to within procedural code is use switch statements but seem taxing. Within this now will check if its a get or post method and execute a method in the class with the same name ie public function action_view() or if its a post method i have chosen to call it post_action_view(). Now is this a good setup I would like some feedback on how people in an OO world would achieve this. Now that i have started executing constructors within the main page files, I have come to think of better ways passing around a url possibly like something like this someurl/index/someproject_somesubproject/view or someurl/someproject_somesubproject/view or someurl/index/aliasofclass/view or someurl/aliasofclass/view and for adding keys to the end for db stuff something like someurl/index/aliasofclass/view?ID=1 or someurl/index/aliasofclass/view/ID/1 i think then all u need is the main index.php file which works out which class to load and execute ? And possibly peristist the objects loads too via shm maybe ? And if you need other files it could be like someurl/otherfile/aliasofclass/view/ID/1 I'm sure this is all mod_rewrite stuff, is this taxing to do ?

We need pretty standard stuff for it to be supported. I dont work for a web company, i'm in an IT department of a government Tv station or i wouldnt need to go through all this hassle to get it. what do you classify as std? (most gov orgs I know of think std == Microsoft). redhat is shite, if you need professional support/indemnity/etc I would recommend Novell/SuSE. if you can go for a minimal setup like debian or gentoo (2 distros that I like) which take the 'less is more' approach and gives you control - rather than some redhat webserver 1500 miles away which thinks it knows better than you whether you want to upgrade to the latest version of xyz. Yes PHP5 is stable enough to use IMHO, just don't rely on updates to std packages always working (like the redhat packages - which _ahem_ suck). As before the systems guy will be doing it from source fk rpm's. I pity the man - I have a friend who is _really_ ace at the sort of thing and he used the word 'nightmare' (php5/apache2/firebird1.5 on a redhat v3 enterprise server). yum yum not.

Yeh right interested what your view is on framework framework == 'bunch of code that I can reuse to form the basis of a site' basically its a data-object setup specific to Firebird DB - basically you design a DB (day or 2), write the objects (day or 2 again), boom instant CMS - and then I spend countless hours doing the custom magic for a given client. There is a lot of work done on relating data entities and on the generic/generated CMS interface. (3 types of relation: Reference, Vector, Association - each is implements as a Field object - fields objects make up the structure of data-object). Its pretty cool, but the stuff that really makes it stand out (IMHO) is the generic management/editing screens...e.g. 1. highlight rows (ala phpmyAdmin but better) and then edit all the highlighted rows (no use of checkboxes) with a single click 2. drag'n'drop columns (to change the order) with the ability to store the changes (the system is capable of storing custom view settings for each user) Actually I have wanted to make the code open source - but its really a quite a complex beast to setup i.e. I can't just give someone a file and say run it, theres your demo. which means I need to write an install file, a help file and make a test DBstructure for people to play with as soon as I have time I will get my ass into gear, then you (and the rest of the world) will be able to see if its any good. ...so it runs on Apache2 quite nicely - there is the fact that you must use the prefork apache2 worker module, other than that there are no overwhelming problems (I assume that there are bugs that could crop up - but this is just going on the assumption that bugless software is only made on other planets :-) - at any rate I have pushed PHP5 quite far on Apache2 and nothing is breaking - e.g. many cyclic-object-references, which was something that sometimes caused segfaults in the 'early' days) I think we could start a flame here, but I have been told the problem isnt with php c code directly but the c libraries it hooks into that instead thread safe ? correct as far as I understand it. to paraphrase Rasmus (answering a post on threading) 'your in uncharted territory, good luck' I see you sneakily snipped off the misspelling of Rasmus' name ;-) -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Depending on configuration and settings, either: http://php.net/file_exists http://php.net/curl Be aware that due to connectivity or dog-slow servers, you will get false negatives fairly often. You may want to record the existence with several checks spread out over a few days before deciding that a URL truly doesn't exist. With a slow server at the other end, that still won't be completely reliable... Also note that just because a URL exists, does not guarantee that it's any good -- Domain name squatters and their link farms abound.

You can also throw in a small thumbnail of the artist before the stream, which is pretty cool. http://uncommonground.com/ has a radio station with files composed this way.

this works due to the superglobal $_SESSION; in order to use the $_SESSION

first call session_start(), which in turn must be called before any output
is sent to the browser.

As of PHP 4.1.0, $_SESSION is available as a global variable just like $_POST, $_GET, $_REQUEST and so on. Unlike
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS, $_SESSION is always global. Therefore, you do not need to use the global keyword for $_SESSION.
Please note that this documentation has been changed to use $_SESSION everywhere. You can substitute $HTTP_SESSION_VARS
for $_SESSION, if you prefer the former. Also note that you must start your session using session_start() before use of
$_SESSION becomes available.

[PHP] PHP4/Apache2 Content-Length stripped?
Hi all, I'm writing a wap download script involving dynamic image resizing and so on. I've notice that some phones are quitting in the mids of http transfer. After looking further I found out that headers() is sometimes ignored or stripped. I've googled around and found in a perl forum that flush-ing helps but in PHP4.3.10/Apache2/Gentoo/linux2.6 it seems to not help (at least in my configuration) Is there a work-around or something...

[PHP] Looking for ideas on scheduling
Hello, I'm looking to make a simple scheduler for myself and I'd like to get some feedback on how to handle the events and their being executed at the right time. The two options I've come up with both involve adding a job(s) to crontab. 1. Individual jobs are added to the users crontab file. This could result in LOTS of entries in crontab, but less load on the server. 2. There is one job put in the crontab file that is executed every five minutes. This job will be executing a PHP file that runs through the database for the current user and checks to see if any events need to go off at that time. This will result in only one event in crontab with a greater potential for load on the server. I'm leaning towards Option 2*. What do you think? What other options do I have?

It's not that you can't use any variables at all -- It's that $this

$this refers to the particular instance of the object you have created

$xyz = new XYZ();
$xyz-bar();
When bar refers to $this it means the same as the $xyz instance.
If you are calling a static method XYZ::foo() then, really, there *IS* no
object inside of foo() to be called $this -- You didn't create an
instance of XYZ, so there is no instance to be named $this -- There is
only the class definition and the method.
It's an object that's not there -- more like the idea of an object without
having an actual concrete object to hang on to.
Hope that helps make sense of it all.
Hell, hope that's actually correct! :-^
its correct. only thing it gets a little more complicated, personally I kind
of got lost in all the internals discussion surround this behaviour...
I just code so that I don't use or accidentally trigger it... in some
cases this means using a protected/private method for an object.
It easiest to see what I'm talking about if you run some code (tested php5):
class XYZ
{
function doit()
{ var_dump( isset($this)); }
}
class ABC {
function doit()
{ var_dump( isset($this)); }
function doMore()
{ XYZ::doit(); $this-doit(); ABC::doit(); }
}
XYZ::doit();echo--\n;
ABC::doit();echo--\n;
$x = new XYZ;
$a = new ABC;
$x-doit();echo--\n;
$a-doit();echo--\n;
$a-doMore();

[PHP] SPL DirectoryIterator

'hidden.txt' == $oFile Is never true, because $oFile doesn't seem to

any reason why it couldn't behave like this.

Seems to me, then, that your best option is to set up your dynamic resizing to down-sample, shrink, or color-reduce your image until it hits X or lower for that phone -- maybe even all phones. In other words, if your current script only gets an image down to 2X bytes, have it call another script to be even more aggressive in shrinking that image down -- Or iterate down through a series of changes until you get the size down. 'Twould be nice if imagepeg() and friends had an imagejpegestimatedsize() but you'll just have to play with imagejpeg and ob_start to capture the size and find out if it's small enough. Do phone users ever really want to download an image larger than X? Probably not.

Betcha, I looked at the command 50 times and didn't see it. The MAILTO only seems to work when the cronjob doesn't run satisfactory. I assume this is because I have a log and error specified. I believe the default is to email to the username (on the local machine) any output from that user's cron file. But, if you're not READING the email on that machine as that username, it don't do much good. Or, if that machine doesn't have sendmail running to actually SEND the email... I have that on one machine, and keep forgetting to fix it, and then every once in awhile have to go un-clog /var/mail/mqueue or whatever it is. So I need a cron job to run sendmail every once in a while, I guess... I plan to add MAILTO to all my future cronjobs, it can help greatly when debugging. I actually leave it on, so that if something BREAKS in my cron jobs, I hear about it. Got a whole email mailbox set up with filtering just to sort the cron jobs into it. Every day I delete the cron jobs that are in progress or where I use the output to give me a status message of what's going on in the long-term projects that are being fueled by cron. Deleting an email is easy. Knowing that a cron job suddenly stopped working is very difficult, unless you got that email about it. :-) Ideally, you write your cron scripts to produce *NO* output unless something is wrong. And useful debugging output when something does go wrong. Another Tip: When things aren't working, use crontab -l to see the crontab, and then copy paste the command and see what happens.

Re: [PHP] Vars with flash
It ain't a dumb question, and is most easily answered by sending you to pp 576 of Colin Mook's ActionScript for Flash - The Definitive Guide. If you're doing a lot of Flash work this book is practically a must have. Are you using LoadVars class(Flash MX) or the LoadVariables (Flash 4) method? I'll assume the former, as that's where your problem is addressed. Without doing a lot of typing, here's the relative bit, regarding formatting of variables transferred by load() or SendandLoad(): . . . Any character that is not a space, a number (1-9), or an unaccented Latin 1 letter (a-z or A-Z) is replaced as follows: - If system.useCodepage is false, the default, the character is replaced by one or more hexadecimal escape sequences of the form %xx, representing the UTF-8 sequence for the character. ... . . . And it goes on for another 3/4 page. Try Googling for Flash System.useCodePage UTF-8 There are a number of combinations of conditions which the book addresses. You can evaluate this yourself in Flash with trace(escape(é)); which should display %C3%A9 - two characters to PHP. Feed that to PHP without some kind of transforming function and guess what you come up with! Flash is encoding your string, PHP receives it, and then translates it to what it knows/is working in. We were sending very simple date values, so the LoadVars class worked, but were receiving unpredictable text. For that we used the XML() class. Have a look at http://ca3.php.net/manual/en/function.utf8-decode.php and other PHP functions associated with unicode. You will have a bit of futzing to do here. Hope this steers you in the right direction - Miles At 02:00 PM 1/27/2005, Carolina Silva wrote: Hello everybody! This might be a dumb question but i'm having a bit of trouble here: I'm making a contact form in flash MX: the swf sends a string with the variables through a loadVariables function.

Hi!
I have rewritten the script and now the output appers in a text form
$testbody = imap_body($mbox, $msgno, IMAGE/JPEG);
$testbody = base64_encode($testbody);
// header('Content-Type: image/jpeg');
echo $testbody;
This is a sample of the script how can i convert the ouput to an
image/jpeg?
The output look like this..
LS0tLS0tPV9QYXJ0XzEyNzk4NjFfNTUz... and so on
The reason the header line above is comment out is that when enable it
doesn't
print out anything but an little frame whith the text image.

You mean only numerics? You can use ctype_digit():
http://php.net/manual/function.ctype-digit.php
I write more about the character type functions here:
http://shiflett.org/archive/84
There is also is_numeric(), if you want to allow any valid representation
of a numeric:
http://php.net/manual/function.is-numeric.php
Be careful with functions like is_int():
http://php.net/manual/function.is-int.php
They check the actual data type. If you're filtering data from the client
(POST, GET, or cookies), then it's going to be a string, even if it looks
like a number.
However, you can use an approach like the following to make sure something
is an integer:
?php
$clean = array();
if ($_POST['num'] === strval(intval($_POST['num'])))
{
$clean['num'] = $_POST['num'];
}
?
Hope that helps.

Now, if you NEED to use some kind of constant, you could write a PHP
script to create your class definition, and then you'd have what you
want...
That can't be too hard, since I once had a guy I was working for who
thought he had laid out a couple months' work for me, only I was done in 3
days, since it was all building classes to mirror MySQL table/fields in a
very brain-dead straight-forward fashion, and I wrote code like this, and
I don't even really grok PHP classes all that well.
Not that I think that made for a particularly good Design, but that's what
he wanted, so who am I to say? But I sure wasn't gonna sit there typing
like a monkey when I could just script the same thing.
Or I guess you could hack something up with eval() if you really worked at
it... That would be pretty nasty code, though, I think.
It would be nice if PHP allowed constants there, but it doesn't, so there
it is.

This is a sample of the script how can i convert the ouput to an

The output look like this..

That's not a valid JPEG.
It might be a valid JPEG encoded with base64, but browsers aren't gonna
display that correctly.
Or, maybe you should have been using base64_DEcode() to get the JPEG out
of the email, more likely...
The reason the header line above is comment out is that when enable it
doesn't
print out anything but an little frame whith the text image.
That's a broken image icon. When you finally get it right, it should
start with, errr, yoya or something like that for a valid JPEG. Only the
o will have an umlat over it, I think. I know it when I see it :-)
After that, you put the header back in, and it all works, unless it's
Internet Explorer which will ignore the changed header() -- because it
already cached it as non-image data -- so just quit and re-start to see it
as an image.

[PHP] Re: mail problem at interland
Hello, on 01/28/2005 12:09 AM David Edwards said the following: I have a fairly simple script written that uses the mail() function on a client site hosted at Interland. I have used a similar script quite a few times before with no problem. However although the script generates no errors, no emails appear at their intended destination. Interland support has not been that helpful and they did suggest I try the '-f' option in the header. That did not work either. Has anyone seen this before, I am running out of ideas. The mail portion of the script is below: $headers .= MIME-Version: 1.0\n; $headers .= Content-type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1\n; $headers .= X-Priority: 1\n; $headers .= X-MSMail-Priority: High\n; $headers .= X-Mailer: php\n; $headers .= From: $emailfrom\n; $mailsent = mail($emailto, $subject, $msg, $headers,-f . $emailfrom); The headers seem to be fine, except maybe for those priority headers that are useless and may be the cause of some spam filters understand it as a pattern of spam. Other than that, you are not telling what exactly you are putting in the $emailto, $subject and $msg, and there you may because commiting a fault that may cause that your message be discarded. Without telling what you are putting there, it is hard to help further. -- Regards, Manuel Lemos PHP Classes - Free ready to use OOP components written in PHP http://www.phpclasses.org/ PHP Reviews - Reviews of PHP books and other products http://www.phpclasses.org/reviews/ Metastorage - Data object relational mapping layer generator http://www.meta-language.net/metastorage.html -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I believe you will have to establish stuff like this in the
constructor. jsut create a function the same name as the class and it
will be run on object instantiation. I had to do the a couple of years
ago for an array.
Check out the manual it used to explain this.

To give them the piece of mind I would like to know if its stable enough to run for an intranet based app running on Federo Linux. The extensions I am trying to get are DOM XML, XSL , GD, getext + a heap of PEAR packages. I have been developing under PHP5 on Mac OSX so no know issues as yet, but I was the one that did the compiling. Its always a querky finnaky thing when someone else does it for you :| We've been using it on a production server now for three weeks, and have had no issues as of yet -- no segfaults, no memory leaks. It just performs. We're using GD to a small extent, and quite a lot of PEAR. We've been using it in development since July 2004, and I've seen very few issues. The only issue I have seen has been with overriding error handling -- a few bugs we had created some cascading errors that ended up segfaulting our systems, but those were probably errors of ours, not of PHP's. (That's why they're _development_ servers, right?)

[PHP] Re: Best way to execute actions within a class
* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I have been building a lightweight PHP4 based, hopefully PHP5 OO structure where each page or php file contains its own class which is then executed using the constructor like so new SomeProject_SomeSubProject(); within the subclasses contructor I then call a method called start which is in a base class called Page which is extended from the main project class called SomeProject. Within start it calls a method to check action page get uri's ie ?action=view , what i used to within procedural code is use switch statements but seem taxing. Within this now will check if its a get or post method and execute a method in the class with the same name ie public function action_view() or if its a post method i have chosen to call it post_action_view(). Now is this a good setup I would like some feedback on how people in an OO world would achieve this. Okay, let's go into self_promotion_mode: This sounds exactly like how Cgiapp works, a class I ported from perl, and available at: http://freshmeat.net/projects/cgiapp/ Cgiapp is basically a do-nothing class that makes creating application classes that work similar to how you describe very simple to code. Such applications are then trivially re-usable, extensible, and customizable (through instance scripts). And it provides all this in a mere few-hundred lines of code. I bring it up because you asked (a) if your setup is a good setup (probably), and (b) how people in an OO world would achieve this (Cgiapp). You might check out the code and the docs to see if you can glean some ideas for your projects. /self_promotion_mode (Man, I hate doing that... buy I *am* proud of that bit o' code, even if it isn't completely original.) -- 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
